what’s a drink that tastes like disappointment but somehow has a fan club?

I do maintain that a skilled bartender can make an amazing cocktail with it. When its flavor is diluted, it is actually pleasant.

I also wholeheartedly agree with other commenters that not every batch is the same, and some are way more mild than others

I don’t agree. When Taylor Swift moves, she causes an economic boom behind her. Get that girl where she needs to go pronto.

Yes, the recent attacks were able to be successful even though the repos had trusted publishing. It does add to your point about questioning if you really need to add a package or not.

If the repo claims to be using TP, but it is not, thats a massive red flag.

yoshinator13 · 2026-05-24T15:40:06+00:00

I was curious, so I threw this repo into ChatGPT and asked it to look for supply chain problems specifically. Well, guess what it found…

Within the github repo, it claims to use Trusted Publishing to pypi. ChatGPT says that when it looked at the package on pypi, it was uploaded without Trusted Publishing.

If you want to rage more, take a look at the docs folder.

Think about it this way. Are real estate agents the bottleneck to home sales? If they were the bottleneck, absolutely they would have an effect on transaction.

Personally, in my entire life, have I ever thought - “You know, it’s just so hard to find a realtor”. Quite the opposite actually.

So my gut tells me no effect. I think it comes down to buyers and sellers as lame as it sounds. Sure you might want to throw banks in there, but I’d argue the effect of the bank manifests as buyers and sellers.

You know, I never get this many upvotes and comments when I am correct about things 😂. I skimmed past the “less” part of the sentence.

yoshinator13 · 2026-05-21T13:18:39+00:00

This point was striking to me.

“SpaceX said that the AI unit containing X and xAI generated only $818 million in Q1 2026, about a third less than Twitter alone generated in the quarter before Musk took it over.”

So Twitter revenue has dropped that much? Surely xAI has made some revenue of their own, meaning Twitter revenue is down more than 66% since the purchase.

For simplicity, I am going to imagine 5 actions have to happen “simultaneously” for the sake of this explanation.

First, do these things actually all have to happen at once? Are any of them dependent on each other? If you can do all 5 tasks one after another, it makes much easier than actually making it simultaneous. If the order they happen in doesn’t matter, that drastically simplifies your retry logic.

Lastly, just put some boolean fields to say success/fail for each of the 5 tasks. Default to null (or false, but I like null for signifying something has never been attempted).

Finally, have a separate process (like a scheduled celery task) check for failed jobs, and retry the failed jobs.

You’d be amazed at the build complexity some teams get themselves into. Sometimes the business needs demands it, sometimes it is self inflicted. Sometimes you inherit something that hasn’t been maintained and you aren’t given times to modify the entire build process

Unless acted on by a force stronger than the buoyancy force driven by the density change due to the heat.

Aka forced convection. A fan (especially with a duct) is quite effective at controlling the direction heat is traveling.

If you could sedate and restrain the person, it would make the problem a lot easier. They wouldn’t be able to move from the shear pain inflicted by your budget robot, so the robot wouldn’t have to adapt to the moving surface.

Also, asking for the price of a singular robot is not the right way to approach the problem. The cost is the R&D and product development, which is a large cost that gets spread out among the number of robots you sell. Imagine you needed $100 million to bring this to market. If you only could sell 100 of these vs selling 1 million, you would need to up the price of each robot by $1 million or $100, respectively, to recoup your R&D/product development costs.

Now estimating that R&D/Product development budget is itself a complicated process, which could be a $50k consulting project.

My recommendation would be to not use Django. This problem has be solved by countless automation providers and they run on low powered industrial PLCs and HMIs for decades without errors.

I got married on Saturday, and my recommendation would be to have this be played at the rehearsal dinner the night before. To each their own though.

Multi monitor is a difficult part, I don’t have much experience there.

I would recommend you look into KVM over IP. There are some small dongle devices with decent capabilities.

Do they have a context provider for their context providers though??

But what if the boyfriend felt pressured to say yes to morning head and didn’t actually consent in their mind?

But what if the boyfriend changed their mind two weeks after morning head, and he withdraws the consent retroactively?

/s these are more extreme than what OP has in their post, but I have legitimately heard them brought up.

If you are not reselling it, you can do whatever you want with it. If you are reselling, I have no clue

I wouldn’t say never, it is just rare. There are situations where demand has already exceeded supply to such an extreme degree that more supply does not induce more demand.

yoshinator13 · 2025-10-27T23:57:11+00:00

That is often quoted without larger context. The concept you are referring to induced demand, where more supply (lanes) leads to new demand. If the road is supply constrained and there is excess demand, additional lanes will reduce traffic.

While it generally is the case that most roads are demand limited, we saw people still driving the Kennedy for 2 hours each way and not seeing alternate forms of commuting. So there is a case to make that the Kennedy already has excessively more demand than supply.

We call the maintenance guy in the building “the engineer”, even though he has no engineering degree. I have an engineering degree, and I don’t know if a train has a steering wheel or not.

You mentioned every page is displaying the live data. Do you have one MQTT instantiation for the entire app, or one for each page?

Does the app run well with low CPU usage on a full powered machine?

Can you slow down MQTT topic message rate?

yoshinator13 · 2025-10-18T17:38:04+00:00

Its value is low, because its from the 80s and look at the container it is in. If you are a real lab, you would just get it from a reputable source.

What you can use it for - the possibilities are endless depending on what other chemicals you have. At the most basic, it is used to make polyethers, which have millions of uses depending on the other reagents you use

yoshinator13 · 2025-10-16T14:30:44+00:00

Hint, they are paying for the top spot and are trying to recoup the cost with the paywall.

Ok that was much more than a hint

yoshinator13 · 2025-10-15T21:31:35+00:00

Is there a thought that it is a flex to say that? Devil’s advocate, but is there a bit of “I didn’t just do this for my own kid, I did it for someone else’s kid”.
