Treat yourself and just go with XP 🤗

Isn't it just a tool to string together a myriad of external packages using programmer familiar syntax?

Correct pronunciations also include SeaGate ;)

Something like these could be a good compromise between solution, difficulty, and price, and will provide a lot of room for experimentation with regards to placement and angles: https://amazon.com/s/...

It seems to be cross platform and well supported for a while?

You should always think of a job post as a wish lists even if the poster meant it as minimum requirements ;)

Fixed it!

I see 1023, 31 on each hand...

@Frederick Instead of thinking "one day" you could actually pretty easily do just one day (or weekend) in Skåne as @ScriptCoded suggest; all of Skåneleden is quite nice and close enough to go there for shorter, improvised hikes, and especially Söderåsen is probably the most accessible you'll find, at least from Sealand...

@sariel frost-butt :'( :'D

It depends quite a bit on your choice of technology and how much time you're willing to put into it, but I think these (somewhat old) presentations provide good theory, pointers, and sources on how to do something like that:

And this project to identify a video clip in another (YouTube) video might do the job or at least be helpful in how to make it do what you're aiming for: https://github.com/bergkvist/... -
Could land somewhere between "Oh shit, I forgot to drink enough" and "would be nice with some fresh water and I won't expect you to do too much for me"?
Also depends quite a bit on the size of bottle; up to a litre wouldn't seem odd to me... -
Present it to your manager as "I saw that with a little extra I could turn this one-off, dirty migration into a feature we can offer as part of the product"

You could also take a look at these arguments, and in general just the whole list of falsehoods ;)

Get a nondescript domain, preferably looking like a small, old provider and use throwaway addresses customised to the application, e.g. applying to Google from bingfan@mailcastle.ie
- or -
Get a domain that looks like a questionable side-hustle and use something generic, e.g. billing@whores-for-hire.com -

So that would mean:
you < what (you think) your life deserve =>
your life > the life (you think) you deserve
So you should enjoy it to the fullest while you work towards becoming the one you think your life deserves :) -
@Fast-Nop ...or like the news on TV or radio, or the concept of newspapers, etc... It's neither new or random, and seeing as the print and broadcast variants are still pretty much everywhere and OS that caters to the same segments...
Different people have different needs in news and I just turned turned the widget off almost as a reflex, as my needs are very minimal and already covered, but I'm not the average, default user... -
@Fast-Nop an aggregation of news, weather, finance, and sports is hardly cramming unrelated shit together, so I'm not sure what you're going for except hating things based on developer rather than intended use and audience...
-
Microsoft: Hey, let's make "News and interests" widget that is highly configurable. Of course space in the taskbar is limited so what could we show? The weather is short and consistent information relevant to most. And make it _really_ simple to shorten it to an icon or turned off completely.
Linux, used to things that does only one thing and gold-plate the shit out of that one thing: Your weather applet sucks, it shows more than weather! -
The renaming is most likely intended to be different than the standard rename shortcut because it's actually a "refactor naming" operation...
-
And how many angry voices do you think we'd had hear if the change was to "mistress" branch? How fast would people have wanted a change if we had always described the relationships as dom/sub?
Everyone is always less inclined to wanna change something that doesn't make _them_ uncomfortable... -
@JustThat basically, though I'd say ignoring is too passive in denying...
-
@JustThat it probably just comes easy, as these words have become so ingrained after trying to own the world for so long, that we don't even think about the fact that "white-listed master" means "male in charge who is automatically allowed and accepted" ;)
-
@N00bPancakes I meant it more to the effect that Linus should have given it a bit more thought when he took the term from what was seen as a master/slave system into a new system that didn't have the same relationship...
@JustThat and this just emphasises the problem, as even the more semantically neutral terms have been corrupted to a point where you're against using them... But still it's not a problem to use "follower" in a lot of contexts where it describes subscribing to something...
Maybe using "broadcaster" and "subscriber" is a fitting terminology? -
@N00bPancakes it seems to be more a case of forgetting the origin of choice of words, which is more about letting the evil in it win simply from laziness :/

@demoralizeddev The problem is not as much in those who do not see a problem as those who might be affected... A much broader and more descriptive relationship using similar terms could be "boss" and "worker" which would level the field a bit...
But as neither punishment or profit is the incentive for any of the activity, why not just go with "leader" and "follower" or something equally neutral? -
@whiskey0 Considering how late you are to complain, your understanding is remarkably flawed.
But looking only at the naming, the most arbitrary part is use of the word "master" as it doesn't reflect the properties of any other (proper) application of the term, e.g. it's neither the primary version that others should replicate and follow nor the final iteration that should be copied for distribution.
The name "main" is not really good or descriptive enough, but wins in not being too far from "master"; better options could be something like "base", "standard", or "default" but the most important part is the change in the first place. -
@zarathustra you need pointers, hmu!

Such a lovely poetic outlet for all the troubles and pressure contained within, such a show of restraint to keep it at that level!
Can't wait for the sequel!
