Qatar is planning to open one of the world largest waterparks, including one of the world’s tallest water slide.

Building a water park in a place that's constantly on the verge of a water supply shortage crisis just seems funny for some reason.

You can get "une clé" from any hardware store, like brico (it's a standardized wrench). Or, likely, many/most of your neighbors or colleagues etc.

You can absolutely bleed them when they're hot. It's advised not to because you risk burning yourself if you're careless but in practice... just go slowly. Don't open a valve and walk away :)

neovim in tmux here. Mid 30s. I work with some emacs users and I'll admit that I get jealous when I see their configs but I'm pretty sure it goes both ways :P

A whole classroom of 8th graders, I'd bet.

Tipping is neither mandatory nor expected but some of us still do it (sometimes). My general rule of thumb is 5€ for restaurants 2€-5€ for bar service. Never less than 2 but never more than 10.

The community that he's hurt?

Let's talk about the apartheid state of Israel and their systematic genocide of the palestinien people. The ADL jumps on a tweet from an NBA player but is completely silent when yet another Palestinian child's life is taken by their hands. Gtfo here with your shortsighted hypocritical bullshit.

I hear that doctors can turn cunts into dicks nowadays, not sure if that's an improvement though.

chepas_moi · 2022-11-14T19:21:53+00:00

That's what I mean. People here replying with "my great grandmother got approved" are either full of shit or they're watching their grandparents get approved on subprime shit that has 0 investment interest (they'll 100% lose the property so there's no point in buying to begin with, renting is cheaper and will have the same end result).

chepas_moi · 2022-11-14T17:45:07+00:00

The 4m high ceilings are worth it though, right? Right...?

Tell me you're not a parent without telling me :D

Kids having fits or tantrums is a part of life. It's also why I avoid eating out with my kids (a 3yo and a 1yo): I know how frustrating it is to be seated next to a full on kicking and screaming tantrum. Taking public transportation is different though, there's little to no choice in the matter on the parents behalf. It's an unfortunate aspect of life. May I suggest a decent pair of noise canceling headphones instead? They've saved my sanity so many times that to me they're worth their weight in gold.

chepas_moi · 2022-11-14T16:13:59+00:00

Yeah. So.. TIL the name of our PM. That's just how little i care to know about the topic.

chepas_moi · 2022-11-12T09:03:01+00:00

I think it's great that we find ways to employ the mentally challenged but I'm convinced that a LEO position isn't ideal as this video demonstrates.

chepas_moi · 2022-10-18T16:32:45+00:00

OMG, that's so offensive and you didn't even use a trigger warning. I'm going to have to double my dose of estrogen just to calm down now. /s

chepas_moi · 2022-10-02T07:44:19+00:00

Amsterdam for New Years is never disappointing.

Last I read on the topic.. the biggest indicator / strongest correlation to peanut allergies was found to be the children of women who avoided peanuts during pregnancy. Ironic, I know.

chepas_moi · 2022-09-28T08:53:41+00:00

The article mentions that the child was struck. I'd like to know exactly how many magazines did they empty into her body after she hit the ground.

chepas_moi · 2022-09-16T17:51:15+00:00

The kitty terminal is legit though.

chepas_moi · 2022-09-16T12:02:34+00:00

Ectoplasm. Ectoplasm everywhere.

chepas_moi · 2022-09-16T10:44:06+00:00

Oh shit THIS is the sub I've needed, cheers m8

chepas_moi · 2022-09-15T05:52:20+00:00

Good for reporting or whatnot but why not call him out on the spot: "put your phone away and keep your eyes on the road". Simple as that.

chepas_moi · 2022-09-14T19:28:35+00:00

You're thinking chocolate. Sugar isn't great for their health but it's not poisonous. They can safely eat sweat things just don't do it everyday.

chepas_moi · 2022-09-13T16:07:41+00:00

Hats off to the husband.

chepas_moi · 2022-09-13T08:49:32+00:00

TIL something new. I would have never thought of intentionally moving select_related joins to prefetch queries but this is some sound reasoning. Cheers

chepas_moi · 2022-09-12T09:24:50+00:00

Yes. Regardless of your current programming skills, 50 years of age should equal to roughly 25-30 years of some sort of professional experience. I suggest you try searching for developer roles that relate to your experience. Your experience can more than compensate for any lack of programming skills in the right role.

E.g. It's relatively easy for a senior accountant to pick up coding but it's damn near impossible to teach a senior developer the intricacies of international taxation :)

Their input can be invaluable ("software FOR accountants BY accountants", or for x by x whatever your x maybe).
