We kinda do, with GPS satellites that have to correct their clocks due to the effects of gravity and speed
And communication with space probes
I use 24h clocks and ISO 8601 dates almost always
Honestly, I’m better at organizing code than I am my actual life
Timezones make intuitive sense for humans
UTC / Unix timestamps make intuitive sense for computers
The issue is bridging the gap
There’s a reason I run Linux, and root my Android
Because it actually feels like my device now
(And fixing issues is significantly easier, if you know where to look)
I cut Strawberry Greek yogurt with plain Greek yogurt, 1 to 1, when I eat it
Drastically reduces the sweetness
The downvotes aren’t surprising; it’s not a very popular idea
I still think it’s an idea worth exploring, though
Businesses won’t support Linux if they can’t sell something, and it gives us access to the code
We should have more “source available, but you still need to pay for it” licenses
Best of both worlds, the company still gets to sell a product, and we can inspect the source, or even submit PR’s (and maybe get a little kickback (but that’s pie in the sky))
Granted, it’s super easy to remove the license restrictions with the source available
I am a programmer, and i also like the naming scheme on the right
Especially for things like filenames
It’s an explicit “opt-out” by the OP, such that their content cannot (legally) be used to train LLMs or such (Chat GPT, Github Copilot, etc)
Well, that’s what I assumed until i read the license terms. It doesn’t explicitly mention AI or LLMs, but it does say
You may not use the material for commercial purposes
Which i assume has the same limitations for AI training, for commercial AI
(I am not a lawyer)
While i also disagree with python’s tendency to use exceptions as control flow
Python is a pretty stellar scripting language. I wouldn’t use it for app dev, but it’s quite handy for the odd automation or CLI task
There is value to having the conversation about “holding on for too long”. But…
But, “euthanasia vs palliative care” is a conversation that must be between you (the owner) and your vet
It’s possible that there are other, addressable reasons for being unable to make it to the litter box, and a vet visit is necessary to identify and address these issues
As well, it’s possible that it is indeed “time”. A conversation with the vet is best
I’ve gone full linux both at home and at work. Thankfully, most of the tools we use are cross platform / FOSS. But in the odd case, I use KVM (the linux equivalent to Hyper-V) to spin up a windows VM
It has it’s issues (like graphics card pass-through), but it works pretty well
When cats do this (complain that the bottom of the bowl is empty), it’s typically because they don’t want to shove their face (and wiskers) into the edges of the bowl
Its called “wisker stress”
A shallower bowl (or just a small plate) is usually more comfortable for them to eat off of
Alternatively, they might paw the food out of the bowl then eat it off the floor, for the same reason
It’s been thrown around the furry subreddits before, i can confirm
It’s giving Kekeflipnote
I’m a fan of the Alera ALEEL42ME10B Elusion Series Mesh Mid-Back Multifunction Chair ($180 at time of posting). I use it both at home and work
I bought it in November 2021 and it’s still going strong
The one at work has been there since before i was hired (5 1/2 years ago)
It haunts me in my dreams
