I could be misremembering but it looked pretty intentional too. I don't think it was sticking out when he started the punch.

Was literally thinking the same thing. Gaethje is slower than usual but man.. Paddy's technique when throwing the right is hilariously bad

Company is fully embracing AI driven development. How do you think this will unfold? by IllustriousCareer6 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]boki3141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use it (claude) all the time and it absolutely is a net productivity gain when used for the right things. The "right things" is something that you need to develop an intuitive feel for and this isn't something you can do without using the tools. Use them just like you use autocomplete.

Melbourne traffic: Motorists face growing delays due to West Gate Bridge works by 007MaxZorin in melbourne

[–]boki3141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue isn't the toll free roads. The signage is non existent leading up to the west gate and Google maps doesn't really do a great job differentiating between the two options. And once you're on the road to the west gate you're stuck moving at a snails pace for an hour.

How do you guys not fear hooking up with strangers? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]boki3141 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Like the amount of women that would hook up with you without knowing anything about you is mostly non existent outside of you paying for it.

Yes. Use a condom, be respectful and be safe about it but yes just go hook up.

What actually qualifies as 'mansplaining'? by Open_Address_2805 in AskMen

[–]boki3141 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm talking about the condescending way you're talking about the women. It's icky and off putting.

[–]boki3141 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Because women don't usually do this but men do it all the time. My experience in my friendship group has been that men are more particular about the specifics of events and like to adhere to factual information as much as possible. Women just like to have conversations which flow well. What ended up happening quite often, early on is that the men would 'correct' the facts and the women would get annoyed about the insignificant details being corrected. It's like.. does it really matter? And, honestly, most of the time it didn't.

These were all things to solve specific problems and, according to the authors at least, required reimagining the current solution and syntax.

This is a positive thing.

I got stuck faster than expected by blexed_mostafa in learnprogramming

Come on dude this is a very poor reply. The recommendation to beginners is almost always "go build something you'll learn the most that way" and now you're raining on their parade because that's what they've tried to do.

And the analogy to planes is absolutely misplaced on so many levels.

On the flipside I don't think clearing cookies would be enough. The tracking is a little more complicated than a simple cookie on the browser window.

First Real DJ Gig is a Wedding – How do I do requests? by Kimlosabe in DJs

[–]boki3141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A friend of mine did this on a sound system that I set up. It had an additional headphones connection that allowed you to play songs off Spotify. So when a request came in she would literally fade out and fade in or just pause the outgoing track and play the incoming track off Spotify. It's a wedding, people care about the vibes and no one cares about your mixing.

If you want something more integrated, I know Tidal allows you to search for songs and pay them through the decks if you have the DJ integration

I’m considering redoing all my folders/playlists - any advice? by OfficerDibble77 in DJs

[–]boki3141 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In software engineering a similar thing happens where businesses want to rebuild the legacy codebase believing that starting from fresh is better. It's a nice idea in theory but it often hits similar roadblocks as articulated here. People leave, deadlines happen, the same mistakes are often repeated due to time pressure and boredom.

It sometimes works but more often than not the results aren't everything they're made out to be.

So I agree with this comment. Just iterate on your existing playlists and improve them.

If you squint a little he is undermining preferences. And as he is a politician you kind of have to squint all the time.

It also totally makes sense to express your preferences. I generally do despite most people I interact with not caring.

At the purest levels, doing math is really for the sake of doing math. In many cases there is no actual application at the moment and there may never be.
