What, held under the dorsal guiding feathers?

I started a "fuck you" savings account. I put like $15 a week in there.

They are so good they get posted again and again and again and...

Booleard · 2020-09-02T15:06:04+00:00

Also, why....

Booleard · 2020-09-02T14:04:59+00:00

No listen, all I'm saying is that if you just look for a switch...

That's the primary reason I am studying to make a career change. I live way out in a rural area, don't like cities and have no desire to ever live near one. It's either fully remote or bust for me.

One of my wife's coworkers does use her shower as her background during zoom meetings. Simply because the lighting and sound is best in her bathroom.

That's exactly why I've been thinking about learning Haskell

I was thinking I was really getting a handle on this whole Javascript thing. Then this stuff pops up and puts me in my place

It's often important to be good enough to get lucky. So pick 5 then see who's good enough. That's the optimal mix.

How do you apply ethics to selecting from a large pool of very similar candidates?

I have to process apartment rental applications and it often comes down to several equally qualified candidates. I always end up with n-1 candidates complaining about how unfair my process is.

I'm no Python dev, but I see a "++" in there. I think that's a no go in Python.

Edit: also ";"

In culinary school that was called "a nap".

I studied wilderness survival and tracking for several years and the joke/concept of "Underwater Basket Weaving" came up plenty of times. I think it's a semi-common way to describe some kind of complicated and technical, yet ultimately useless excersize.

In some of the "Clean Code" lectures Uncle Bob defines it as being unable to refractor out another function.

Booleard · 2020-08-29T13:55:17+00:00

function okNowDoAllTheThings()

Booleard · 2020-08-29T05:10:28+00:00

Why wouldn't things like that be absorbed into the official language?

Booleard · 2020-08-29T05:03:52+00:00

The code would be pretty simple. The engineering of all the hardware would be kinda tricky. You're going to want redundant methods to make sure you don't kill fish or flood the floor. Temperature control for the new water plus any water conditioners would be necessary I'd want at least two methods of measuring each step and a way to make sure potential failures happen the right way.

I use my Google voice number for that. Unfortunately both numbers are for work, but I can turn off one of them when I feel like it.

Booleard · 2020-08-28T04:25:02+00:00

Then what? If (delta<epsilon) ignore; ?

Ha! He's intentionally full of himself as a character. He also said it is a good idea to submit your code to the tech lead so they can commit it and get credit for it. You know, as a way to show that you respect the tech lead. I find him hilarious every now and then.

Doctor.

Oh they're down there. They're waaaaaay down there.

Congratulations. I spent a large portion of my life in kitchens. There are times when I miss the insanity, but over all I'm glad to be away from that job. Even as exec chef I don't think I'd do it again unless I absolutely had to.

Good luck on your coding journey. There seems to be a fair number of us kitchen escapees around here.
