@DirtyBit Text to speech, speech to text... Can't see code vs can't type code... I guess I left out some segue thoughts, but yes, when I'm unable to type I wonder about all the other ways I could become handicapped and whether I need to write any code now that would help me write code in the future if something happened to me. Deafness wouldn't be as much of a problem I don't think, but I literally cannot imagine programming blind! That's why I'd love to know more about how it can be done.

@Niro Really?! I've always wondered what that would be like! Every time my RSI acts up and I can't type, I think how I need to figure out how to code without typing.

That's not normal behavior. This neighbor/family member has anger issues and should get anger management, for real.

Move.

The sad truth is, the ransomeware author probably didn't target them specifically. It's a virus. Unfortunately, hospitals are more likely that not to be behind on software updates (including security updates) because of the risk an automatic update gone awry. "Defibrillator is installing updates... Please wait."

I'm the same way, if I go off SSRIs. Just remember you don't HAVE to be happy. You don't owe the world happiness. Try not to feel pressure to be happy, and just forgive yourself on days when you're super depressed and not the person you want to be. I still get depressed about 1 day a week. I've adapted to where I don't beat myself up about it. I know it'll only last a day or two, and until then I won't accomplish much. And that's OK.

YASSS!

I mean, yes.

@ryanmhoffman It is - shall I say - an EXCEPTIONal joke

I feel yah. Actually been working on a code rewriter to fix all the superficial crap (GitHub.com/wmhilton/beautifier). The PHP support is still alpha quality though.

At least they were TRYing...

The downloading is not the bottleneck. It literally just spent 10 minutes "linking" whatever that entails. Somebody somewhere let a worst case exponential time algorithm in there, am I right? ^_^

This was for adding a single package, with no dependencies of its own, by the way.

Well... Everybody has to start somewhere! Maybe you should point him at the API documentation. If it exists.

NOOOOOO!!! Don't say it's so! That hurt just thinking about it

I don't think this "joke" is funny. It's basically dehumanizing women by downgrading them to machines that should do whatever men ask.

@dreik I use a simple algorithm:
1. Will task take more than one day? If so break into subtasks and apply algorithm to subtasks.
2. Think task could take all day? Say 8 hours.
3. Think task will only take 15 minutes? Say 2 hours.
4. Everything else is 4 hours.

Not sure how accurate my estimates are though; I just started using it last month.

*THIS*

@vortexman100 that makes sense

Will also throw out there that the free Go Git Service is awesome. It was so easy to install, every other open source tool pales in comparison. Definitely consider it as alternative to Gitlab. https://gogs.io

No one can use git without making bash scripts! I've gone so far as to make a wrapper around the git cli entirely:
https://github.com/wmhilton/g Even if you don't use it, the README doubles as a great git cheatsheet.

Just say you like watching documentaries or reading books.

Nobody likes it when someone points out problems without offering a solution. Screw nuance. If they ask, "Any idea how to fix this?" own up to the situation and recommend a course of action. Particularly if it's a security problem. Prefix your answer with IANAL or YMMV if that helps you sleep at night.

@drRoss Now I see this... Cool!

@ghost1227 what's the name of the 2FA thing your set up? I think I was using some third party service that sent SMS but I guess you could use the Google Authenticator app instead.

@Lalike1987 no, Carl from Walking Dead.

<slow clap>

I'd tell you to use a security fob or phone based 2FA, but I tried and failed to make 2FA work with my SSH setup a couple years ago and didn't get very far. But I have a FIDO Security Key that I use to log into Google and Github. I just need to figure out how to get SSH and GPG to use it.

Found it

There's a meme for that...

Wait, you're not one of those people who use a passphrase with your private key...?

@penderis You mean a no-maj? ;)
