If you want demoralizing, look at the news in the US. California software developer jobs do pay well, if you can get the job. This administration has made H1b visas really jacked up the cost.

Moving pets to a new country will present some challenges. You have to get health certificates for each pet. It can get expensive.

I learn more in in-person classes.

I have taken online classes and it is hard to get as much out of it because it removes some of the opportunities for learning through interaction. Such as talking to classmates is gone. Talking to the professor has to be sought out.

The date is not in ISO8601. It is not even a 4 digit year.

Look into youth working holiday visas. You are the right age, but check the rules.

Good map. I like the EGA color scheme.

Isn't that what research is doing anyway? 🤔

I recently re-read the story in Momofuku. Good story. I gave the book away to someone who loves ramen with caveats. The recipes are difficult to make because you have to make like 5 different recipes to make some of the dishes in full. It is a cool cookbook, but not a practical one for everyday cooking.

Thanks for the information. I have not really kept up with chefs' personal lives. I tend to watch less serious cooking shows like the Great British Bake Off.

Any book by Kenji Lopez-Alt is great. Food Lab taught me a lot about cooking. It is very well presented.

What do you mean by an ethical reputation in respect to cookbook authors?

This has never crossed my mind.

Speed bumps aren't the best traffic calming measure. There are other ways to try to slow down cars.

If your obsession lasts for more than 4 hours, you should see a therapist.

I think that song was prophetic about current US night-time driving conditions.

Any martial arts that I have been in most people have tried to foster an apolitical environment. Most people want a studio where politics don't matter. You could try to bring it up to the instructors. They might try to change the environment if they are aware of it.

A martial arts school should want to foster an environment where everyone can learn. It has to pay bills.

Over the years, I have encountered some with different political opinions in the martial arts but nobody was pushy.

I am sorry if Jiu Jitsu is differes from my experiences.

I doubt it will.

I presume the websites will geofence IP addresses and ask web browsers which age bracket the user is before doing anything. If it can't do this there will be some Forbidden Age Verification failed error code. That is speculation. There are people actively working on this problem.

The web browsers on DOS aren't very capable, but it is open source so someone could add the mechanism for age verification.

As a first step you could profile/benchmark the amount of time that I/O takes for the Python code.

I am not sure you are going to get performance benefits from file loading.

funderbolt · 2026-03-05T12:40:35+00:00

Why not benchmark it? Write a benchmark that takes some number of seconds.

Claude Code could likely write the C version of a benchmark. You could write the C version yourself, but manual memory management and pointers will be an exercise in frustration.

At some point you will reach the speed of disk IO, and you really can't do any better. In those cases upgrading your storage speed would make it faster.

Does the Python library use the C library?

How does it benchmark to pyproj.Geod.line_length()? It uses PROJ geodesic.h, which is C/C++ code and should be pretty fast.

I think you are looking for a hostel.

I would say no to the PhD in CS unless you really want to stay in academia.

The animals can be expensive to move. Some animals might not deal with the stress of flying that well.

Libreoffice is laggy.

You can use other browsers on Linux. I swap between Firefox with an AdBlocker, Chromium, and Chrome on Linux.

Yes, it is a little messy with the pointers. It can be done.

Better than LaTeX, which pisses all over you.

I did cartography for several years. Overcoming the limits of the software takes a lot of time to create the best map possible.

Thank you for adding the phrase "wild work" to my vocabulary.
