Just in case you still use any Basecamp products, DHH is crashing out about his AI product gently pointing out that it’s bad for him to have extermination fantasies about the Roma people.

‘Father’ and ‘dad’ are synonyms. ‘Figure’ and ‘bod’ are synonyms. But, a ‘father figure’ and a ‘dad bod’ aren’t exactly the same thing…

I asked what I should use instead of firefox and someone said “floorp” and I legitimately thought it was a bit for like five minutes. tech has gone beyond making the torment nexus real to making poob real.

Instead of "Groups A and B just never talk to each other", I'm working on saying "what happens if groups A and B don't talk to each other?" Now I'm not speaking in absolutes, I'm not overgeneralizing, I'm rather talking about a hypothetical and *specific* instance, and discussing that Much better!

Watching Star Trek Discovery and it raises an important question - how do you design a staff database that accounts for the fact that someone has traveled in time without them showing as 900 years old in normal use? My boyfriend for some reason was not very interested in this conversation.

The simple answer would be a number of time jump records associated with the person, and you introduce a new calculated field that adds the inverse of the sum of all related jumps to their "true" age I guess. You'd use that then for standard reporting

In the world of Star Trek you'd already account for the lifespan of different species - but having a shop run almost exclusively by impossibly old crew would raise some eyebrows and be a nuisance surely?

Hello all: It is with a heavy heart that I remove my Starter Pack of "Trustworthy Mesopotamian Copper Ingot Merchants Within the City-State of Ur." I have been informed about some pretty unfortunate oversights on my part and ultimately platformed some creators who should not have been platformed.
