Ass pennies?

• What happens to the ball?

It slowly rolled toward the edge but stopped before falling to the ground. The path was somewhat eccentric because of the texture of the ball.

• What color was the ball?

Yellow

• What gender was the person that pushed the ball?

Male

• What did they look like?

Green and white track suit (why? IDK), mid 60’s Italian, chubby

• What size is the ball? Like a marble, or a baseball, or a basketball, or something else?

It was one of those foam Nerf bullets, so about the size of a shooter marble

• What about the table, what shape was it? What is it made of?

It was that black IKEA table where the four metal legs screw into the corners. About 6ft by 3ft.

• And now the important question: Did you already know, or did you have to choose a color/gender/size, etc. after being asked these questions?

The entire scene sprung into my head at once after reading that someone interacted with the ball

In a zoo? Probably a binturong or something like that. In the wild- an ocelot.

Tasmanian devils are unique in that they have a cancer that can be transmitted from host to host.

What’s the dew point at those temperatures?

Can’t believe they showed one guy fucking another guys foreskin, that seemed really out of place

This is terrible advice.

OP needs to set boundaries in a paper traceable way after establishing then in person (an email of “dear boss lady, I want to eat lunch alone, kthxbye”), and track violations of those boundaries (dear boss lady, today you sat with me at lunch after I asked you not to, please explain why). (Obviously be more professional).

Then after a few violations, OP can go to HR because suddenly the boss lady is starting the fire; there is a clear history of personal boundaries not being maintained, leading to a hostile work environment.

This only doesn’t work when the company is like 5 people and HR is your boss’s cousin or whatever.

A French embassy built in 1841 when the territory was its own country. It’s now a 5 minute walk to the nearest Wendy’s from there.

I started using Python ~15 years ago. I didn’t go to school for CS.

Compared to using literally anything else at the time as a beginner, pip was the best thing out there that I could finally understand for getting third party code to work with my stuff, without copy paste… on Windows.

When I tried Linux, package managers and make were pretty cool for doing C/C++ work.

Despite all that, us “regular” engineers were consigned to Windows.

We either had to use VBA or a runtime that didn’t need to be installed.

Downloading a movie only to find it was the pain Olympics or a cartel/terrorist beheading was also fun

I’m invested because higher adoption of my preferred platform causes prices of said platform to drop, making the platform economically attractive to develop for.

Fewer users causes less effort to go into the platform by larger corporations due to lower revenue streams, diminishing updates and feature count over time.

Eventually, users leave due to pain points not being addressed. Shrinking user bases causes independent developer talent to focus on other platforms since the economics no longer work in the marginal case.

The shrinking independent developer contributions to the ecosystem make the required effort to develop for it that much higher, since the tools and apps that would have been built weren’t.

Higher development costs slow down feature pacing, due to the increased effort needed to substitute the efforts of missing ecosystem developers.

Lack of feature cadence drives users to other platforms, shrinking the user base, bringing us back to step 1.

It’s fine. No metallic taste since it’s not a reactive metal. In the microwave you just have to make sure it doesn’t contact the edge. You only get arcing of metal when there are sharp points or loops, which aren’t present on a disc.

I want to throw a lemon-themed birthday party, does anyone know of a good website to get ideas for events and decorations at a lemon-themed party?

Tried this, they’re all broken. Corelle flatware lasted quite awhile, but were still no match for my wife and kids. Everything is now stainless steel.

Yes. I’ve never had anything in Europe labeled as “spicy” that wouldn’t be outclassed by a mild hot sauce in the US. Closest I’ve come is an Indian restaurant in London. Also the hot sauce at Nando’s was an honorable mention.

Meanwhile the minimum spice level at the hole in the wall Mexican restaurant down the street in Texas is at the same level and hot enough in the high end that I can’t handle it. It’s perfect.

The standard ones should be standardized and any extras in an adjacent header. Power, reset, power LED, and HDD LED should be a single block.

The first news broadcast I can remember the subject of is Tom Brokaw talking about a bombing in Bosnia… because I liked the alliteration.

From other discussions I’ve seen, the guy stepping down was frustrated by having C code rejected that made lifetime guarantees more explicit. No rust involved. The patch was in service of rust bindings, but there was 0 rust code being reviewed by maintainers.

Hearthstone. So… Fine? I guess? I’m in a StormWind tavern as a human, and if I die I can resurrect at the nearest graveyard. Seems fine to me.
