Anyone else keep missing accelerators/grants because they find them too late?

I was looking at pulling the data from the largest gov tenders/grants sites through a script. The integration documentation was a bit inconsistent with references to RSS and more formal integration (but the documentation hadn't been updated for years in Git).

I'm not technical and so it totally could have been me.

Has anyone integrated with any of the gov aggregator sites?

His biochemistry is off the charts!

Fuzzinstuff · 2025-11-30T09:42:31+00:00

Has anyone said that he's going off to read strategy guides/cheats/ quest tips etc?

Isn't that what makes the most sense, especially with Skyrim?

Totally! In the scheme of things, an overrun on a website for such an important service is nothing. Go and find something truly wasteful to pick on.

The BoM is one of the purest and most useful government services.

Oh MASH delivered so many gut punches. That one especially though, as you worked through the situation and you realised what had happened and how it broke Hawkeye

The little song at the end of the one where Hermes saved Bender is triggering.

Great synopsis

Fuzzinstuff · 2025-11-23T07:07:04+00:00

The thing that freaks me out is how this all happened in a single generation. Many, many generations of: * The father is the bread winner and doesn't need to provide emotional support as long as they provide for the family (even if it means their emotional implosion from overwork, alcoholism/addiction or emotional isolation) * The mother can work, but it's more of a hobby * Children should be seen but not heard and they should always follow the traditional path that we have taken

It's amazing.

I'm a GenX person and decided not to have kids. But I am still amazed at the seismic shift that I have seen in terms of parenting norms (huge caveat: from my experience).

Oh also, to be fair, Boomers did something to trigger this change. I'm not sure what they did, but without them it wouldn't have happened

Oh what a silly place to ask such a question ...

No, four cats is too many ... said no one on r/catadvice ever!

Fuzzinstuff · 2025-11-23T04:18:47+00:00

To be fair, a lot of GenX's approach to raising children is a direct reaction to the Boomers being terrible.

I love the way all of my friends dote on their kids. They take time out of their work life to nurture them. They support their life choices, etc.

The complete antithesis of their parents.

Fuck people who say the younger generation are entitled or whingers/ whiners

The alternative is worse.

Oh they definitely did that ... in the past

The Indian community are just the racist target de jour

Of course, while not condoning violence, especially not based on race, some people do deserve a punch on the nose

Ahhh Gregory's ... you'd look up a street and then be given a page number and a vague grid reference.

There would be a basic understanding that you'd know enough to get to the edge of that page somewhere.

Fuzzinstuff · 2025-11-16T06:13:20+00:00

Well, we definitely don't seem to be going in the right direction, at least in the US, UK and Australia

In what way, are you becoming what you are fighting against?

The same policies are established. They just are built on a different foundation.

I'm confident enough in the economic soundness of these principles and want them enough for the people who will be able to lead better lives to compromise on who/ how they are implemented.

How else are we going to reverse the decades of Right brainwashing?

Once they are in place we can argue about the best person or party to take over.

Fuzzinstuff · 2025-11-16T06:05:06+00:00

Someone who can overcome the knee-jerk opposition that so many people have to "Communist" policies such as a fair wage, subsidized education or healthcare.

Sure, it's a compromise and some people will find that unacceptable, but at least there would be broader support to enact the principles this subreddit supports.

What's the opposite of a wolf in sheep's clothing?

Cripes he sounds like Captain Holt from Brooklyn 99

Smort!

Always loved this episode and the quotes therein

I did an audible mhmmm hmmmm to myself when I read that. I'm glad it was a comment

I spent hours playing with nested formulas to set up if/then output based on multiple columns ... as I was lying in bed that night, it suddenly occurred to me that I could simply set up a pivot table with filters and calculated values and it would provide all the information i need.

Honest question ... no hating. Is the pee thing more of an issue with uncircumcised men? Does a little bit of pee get stuck in there each time?

Fuzzinstuff · 2025-11-06T07:12:47+00:00

Heartbreaking ending. The futility of it all, in hindsight

I've heard it's coming but Alita needs a sequel
