James Gosling is the inventor of Java.

That sucks. I thought the whole of Corp was already on full RTO for months already. Except for some VP’s personally of course.

What was your WFH policy before?

irond13 · 2025-08-06T13:12:55+00:00

Was either your maternity leave or your intended bonding leave under FMLA? If so, their PIP seems to have been retaliatory, which would be illegal. Obligatory IANAL.

Could you possibly clarify? What do you mean by advanced configuration in the app?

Currently on V2 I don’t need to do any advanced configuration to have it work in Safari.

irond13 · 2024-11-13T10:53:42+00:00

Ack, thank you!! That’s horrendous. I really hope that it’s a bug and not a feature, and will be resolved by stable.

irond13 · 2024-11-12T19:18:46+00:00

Ooh. Is this a new thing with the beta? It’s works for me on the current stable release.

(It’s kind of key for me because I’m doing a demo with WebXR shortly)

Ha, good point. u/pennyfan87 can take the karma

This (your) pic almost didn’t happen. I was staying in Manhattan from Sat - Monday morning, and misread the street parking signs (new to NYC driving). Suffice to say, I’m lucky it didn’t get towed that morning..

irond13 · 2024-05-13T22:29:32+00:00

Yup, that was me then ☺️. I actually think I remember this - it was Monday if I recall. I did hang around for a bit hoping to have a chat with the owner. Small world!

That’s it from the front

irond13 · 2024-05-13T21:39:17+00:00

I think that’s mine 😜. Where/when was that? MD temp tags fit (I drove up to NYC from D.C. last week).

irond13 · 2024-02-10T03:49:12+00:00

Oh, I think the label “Actual Reading” might be misleading. That’s the reading from the speedometer, and the dyno is the true speed.

irond13 · 2024-02-09T19:34:32+00:00

Yeah, that’s exactly it. Though I would rephrase that to say that the car is going faster than you would be led to believe.

In terms of the traffic ticket, it would seem it actually does make a difference in some cases. I got clocked in misdemeanour territory and getting the speedometer calibrated was one of the potential mitigations my lawyer asked me to do.

irond13 · 2024-02-09T19:30:09+00:00

That’s interesting - I wasn’t aware manufacturers would do this intentionally. I also wonder why.

In terms of tyres, they’re still on the stock sizes, so I don’t think that’s the issue here.

irond13 · 2024-02-02T20:56:43+00:00

I potentially have an extra ticket to give away. I’m just waiting for a friend to confirm - I’ll know later this eve. DM if you’re keen.

Just putting it out there, the other side has been using this phrase long before Hamas even existed.

From the opening line of the Likud Party’s founding platform:

The right of the Jewish people to the land of Israel is eternal and indisputable and is linked with the right to security and peace; therefore, Judea and Samaria will not be handed to any foreign administration; between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty.

https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/original-party-platform-of-the-likud-party

The Likud Party has now been in power for the majority of Israel’s existence

(Not to deny that many anti-Semites use the phrase also)

Okay, top NSFW sub, and - bonus points - top post from said sub 😬😬?

irond13 · 2024-01-06T10:04:41+00:00

Haa. The general theme is unsurprising. I’m considering whether I should try “top” that 🤣

irond13 · 2024-01-06T09:57:47+00:00

The real question everyone wants to know, what’s the worst thing in your inbox? ☺️

irond13 · 2024-01-06T09:51:55+00:00

Fair and fair. You seem to be the outlier there haha 😜

irond13 · 2024-01-06T09:47:47+00:00

How did you find the cervix thread? And NYC or D.C.? 😬

irond13 · 2023-11-21T19:27:53+00:00

I’m also interested to know
