I laughed and immediately felt bad about laughing.
But you’re right about rice. A better solution is to use a silica packet. A good argument for keeping some handy instead of throwing them out.
So as an alternative question so someone who sounds reasonable (it is the Internet after all!), what are your thoughts on a 2-state solution, or Israel’s expansion into the West Bank?
Ignoring of course the fact that a 2-state solution will never ever happen.
At its heart, Obsodian is a flat file markdown-based not taking app. It is pretty simple. To understand where it gets more involved, look at all the plug-ins available for it. There’s more stuff that can be found in the docs pretty easily.
Never heard of that, does it work offline? I’ve been using TiddlyWiki on a cloud drive as a bookmark homepage.
Building on this, if you don’t know at first but think you might, it’s ok to ask questions to flesh out and better understand the question. It highlights your troubleshooting skills. If you still don’t know and they tell you the answer, there’s nothing wrong with asking follow up questions. This can demonstrate your interest in the subject as well as possibly highlight knowledge they haven’t specifically asked you about.
In this vein, don’t forget that logs usually exist, and if they don’t you can often enable debugging. When something’s going wrong the first question I usually try to answer is “what’s the error message?” There isn’t always one, but if there is, knowing it can be a big help.
ETA: Most technical interviewers recognize that the average candidate will need some training for their specific environment, especially for junior positions. They’re looking for trainability, critical thinking, and troubleshooting skills. You may not be well versed in the specific tool they use for, e.g., configuration management, but if you demonstrate an understanding of the concept, that will show them that you can be easily trained to meet their specific needs.
I enjoyed High Tension.
I’ve seen a bunch that are really good, but I’ll add a couple:
BLT. Simple and so so good.
Toastie, or grilled cheese. Couple of ways to punch the is up. Use a thick cut crusty bread. Include some Branson Pickle. I learned about this in London, and it’s amazing. My mom used to make a grilled cheese with tomato and bacon. Either way, or just a plain old grilled cheese is pretty good.
The black rye Schlotzkie’s used to use for this sandwich was so good.
That one and G Gordon Liddy. I especially liked in one of the later Liddy episodes where he said he doesn’t like doing more than 3 or 4 because it gets monotonous, but that Liddy’s life was so bonkers that he just couldn’t decide what to cut!
Those were absolutely crazy!
I’ve migrated petabytes from one GPFS file system to another. More than once, in fact. I’ve also migrated about 600TB of data from D3 tape format to 9940.
True, I was mainly responding to folks talking about banks going under and people “losing everything.” The FDIC was specifically set up to avoid that happening again.
Not gonna bite on that one. I’m gonna go home and have sex with my wife!
Recently rewatched “What If” as background noise. I had never heard of it when I first watched it, and came away really enjoying it. A really good cast, and a quirky rom-com plot made it a fun watch.
It’s Robert Heinlein, and it’s quite different from the movie. I enjoyed both.
FDIC would get the test of its lifetime, but for sure the government would step in to protect the market. Some level of that would come from taxpayers’ pockets.
Similar with the US FDIC:
The FDIC is primarily funded through assessments, which are insurance premiums paid by FDIC-insured institutions. These assessments are based on the balance of insured deposits and the risk posed by each bank. Additionally, the FDIC’s Deposit Insurance Fund is invested in U.S. Treasury securities, earning interest that supplements the premiums paid by banks.
Watch Running Man for Richard Dawson. If you know about his time as host of Family Feud, his character in this movie takes on a whole extra level!
There were a handful of them. Two I remember are allofmp3 and something like mp3eagle. One of those introduced me to Muse around the time Black holes and Revelations came out.
