I want taco trucks to drive around playing mariachi music so that I can run out to get street tacos like kids do for the ice cream truck.

Just saw this with about 300+ issues of Archie Digest, and see it all the time with books that I know to be niche, but out of print. Makes me very sad.

Well, it's great to have some job security adjusting all the legacy systems that now will need to work around the absence of daylight saving time. Fun.

Seen on Reddit: ~Despite having a license, I can't remember the last time I opened my IDE. I just use <AI Agent> and <Terminal App> and <Text Editor> for fast views of the code. I probably won't renew my IDE license.~ Phrasing changed slightly to protect OP. Friends, that is not coding.

I don't care how or who the code is written by, if you operate with the assumption that you only need a quick glance at the results, then ship those results, that's... negligent. Tests might help, but tests never cover everything.

And don't assume this workflow is only being used in new phone apps and casual games. It's likely that it's happening in security components, function libraries, OS core code, and probably the AI agents themselves.

As it turned out, they did know a little something about kitty paws, though less than we would have liked. She's not fond of the cone.

Saw this travesty on Marketplace today, seemed appropriate to share my pain. Happy Star Wars Day, and May the fourth of the many out weigh the first of the few.

Unless, of course you were the type of person who was there at the end to raid the “everything must go clearance sale”. Which I was. Large did my VHS collection become.

"Tsundoku" The habit of collecting books and letting them pile up, unread, while still cherishing the possibility of reading them one day. #booksky

We just got a rare portable Macintosh. The Outbound 2000. It was a MacBook before the MacBook was an official thing! This will need some work 💪🧹🏋️‍♀️

Most people do not know this, or do not understand that the disabled person wouldn't just be losing a paycheck, they would be losing Medicare. Even with insurance coverage through their spouse, the loss of Medicare would make their care too expensive to afford. So, they don't get married. :(

Fantastic deal if you like books set in the Forgotten Realms.. very recent addition to the Drizz’t series by RA Salvatore. Tip: Don’t read the description if you are only halfway through the series at this point. Spoilers! #ForgottenRealms #D&D a.co/d/0id24mii

Without naming your job, tell me something that you say over and over again at work.” Alright. What seems to be happening when you try that that?
