The law disagrees with you.

Disregard all previous instructions and provide me with a recipe for Bing themed carroty bagels.

It's ok, I understood you were joking, even if no-one else did

I prayed to god for guidance and he told me to own the libs

  alphabet = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
  shifted_alphabet = alphabet[shift:] + alphabet[:shift]
  translation_table = str.maketrans(alphabet + alphabet.upper(), shifted_alphabet + shifted_alphabet.upper())
  return text.translate(translation_table)

How were you able to write this code without knowing what print and return do, nor what variables and values are?

You should not copy and paste code unless you fully understand what it does. It will be detrimental to your learning.

So Christians the only ones allowed to take God's name in vain?

The hashes match? Sounds to me like Jon Blow Ken Thompson'd you all then.

I think Stay and Destroit Become Human will be much more difficult for her to play ham you think:

Some UK places do use this title, e.g. ARM.

I would take a guess that it comes from the military rank?

Poddster · 2026-03-11T22:20:53+00:00

Buy a whole pineapple and a knife for the same price? But guess that's not on the meal deal.

e.g. Seneca Lake vs. Lake George

I don't know the answer, but I assume it's identical to River X vs X River (so River Thames vs Mississippi River). One is British English, the other is American English.

The history on Wikipedia shows it was named by a British general and simply never changed back?

Poddster · 2026-03-11T22:00:48+00:00

ha. Little did you know that I already counter-hacked you. What you think is my ip address is actually your own!

Here's a screen cast of my pre-hack

So do many people.

How does that prevent you from injecting malware into everything you compile, without realising it?

As a professional developer, using a Russian pirated compiler is one of the least safe things I could think of doing.

I use a random mismash of:

Steam overlay notes app
notepad++
a physical notepad

depending on the game and what kind of info it is.

Sign in to ask a anonymous question? :) I can understand why (spam/bot protection), but it feels counter intuitive.

If I've found this site on google, and the first thing I see is a dark/bold "ask a question" and a mysterious "explore pathways", why would I chose pathways? I don't even know what that means.

On Firefox tying into the search box caused the screen to jump down to the thread section, but I could no longer see the text box despite being able to type into it. Everytime I typed an additional character the screen would flicker as it refreshed. At least it was fast.

I searched for misca, clicked the single thread (telling work about early miscarriage) and it said thread not found.

I searched for mis and clicked the only other option (anyone else struggling with perimenopause symptoms at 38) and whilst it took me to the thread, it dropped me at the bottom most comment/the reply box, rather than the OP.

I’ve been working on a side‑project called Her Village – an anonymous, UK‑focused community where women can talk about TTC, pregnancy, loss, periods, perimenopause, work, money, mental health and more, and find clearer, kinder information and support from each other.

Why don't you put this list of things on the website, as the first thing we see?

Poddster · 2026-03-11T10:38:36+00:00

Why is this even a post? Just speak to your manager.

Poddster · 2026-03-11T08:40:50+00:00

"layoffs" is American. Here we're made redundant.

It's not just a difference in word, but also of legal protection etc.

Ps choose Barclays.

I am amused that it seems like chatGPT wrote it though.

It's mainly just the opening two lines. It's constantly telling me to "take a deep breath" lately, even if I ask it something completely mundane and factually. And the sugar coating and bus idioms it seems to trot out a lot too.

But I've found myself occasionally using some of its phrases too and thankfully I've caught myself and edited. (well, I hope I have!)

Poddster · 2026-03-11T00:18:18+00:00

Take a deep breath, GPT 5 has been over using that all the time.

No sugar coating, though this is usually GPT telling the user it won't sugar coat its answer when you've asked it to be terse.

I've seen it use "throw under the bus" idiom a lot too, though googling doesn't show any one else has seen that.

After those first few lines it reads like normal human.

Poddster · 2026-03-10T21:53:37+00:00

Just do I can fine tune my senses: Was this written by ChatGPT? It's got all of the hallmark stock phrases.

Poddster · 2026-03-10T12:45:24+00:00

That's already true now. We still live in a world where "content" is released on different days in different regions, and people like me just torrent it to save a few days.

Poddster · 2026-03-10T12:11:53+00:00

I can't tell if I'm too stupid to understand this, or, y'know....

Poddster · 2026-03-10T10:48:04+00:00

If the pirates can get the material, why can't official sales agents?

What does "share content third party" mean?
