Food Network sales execs looking at this

I don’t think the new strategy of injecting ads directly into the video stream can be defeated in realtime though. It’s like how you cannot defeat tv ads…you can blank the screen, or record and restitch without the ads, but the content itself has the ad. YouTube is a bit different where you can theoretically skip ahead, but your device has to tell Youtube that it wants to skip ahead in order to actually even get the video content, and youtube can look at request timestamps to know you didn’t see the whole injected ad and just re-inject it in the video stream.

I should get paid a lot less for typing on a keyboard all day, but oh well.

Takin up the one stall to pee when there are three urinals open and I gotta blast

That’s a real thing, there’s one near me

Boost allows you filter keywords. It’s not a highlight option, but it’s a couple taps to paste the text you want to exclude.

Typing long form stuff on a smartphone sucks

Ew siloing

Creepy guy got fired. Showed up the next day and confronted HR. Idk what went down but they had to call the cops.

Loved that book

Yeah if you need even 99.9% uptime, the most downtime you can accept in a year is eight hours.

Alright who’s running the database on the same machine as the server…👀

He’s just refactoring it

Hated this in one past job. It gave me great joy to quit and work somewhere that wasn’t bean counting. But I can say that RescueTime with Toggl was pretty handy to track stuff. RescueTime would autotrack the time spent in different apps and tabs. Toggl allowed me to do a simple start/stop with a label for more focused work.

Sometimes I am happy about the increase in AI assisted coding specifically so junior devs won’t get as stuck without outside help. Very frustrating when they don’t reach out when they struggle, but at least they can privately copypaste into ChatGPT and get ideas. But, still requires a fine toothed comb when you’re doing the review to know if any toilet tier material sprayed out.

I need to see a man about a horse

On the gender controversy…the Olympics pool from so many humans that for many years now, you can tell just visually that top contenders are those naturally selected with genetic traits lending them unusual prowess in their sport. For strength based sports, more women with male traits rise to the top and vice-versa for men in more physiologically female dominated areas.

Multiple countries directly involved on the ground, generally.
