Cake day: July 5th, 2023

  • Ours would say:

    Party 1

    • Round up all minorities and immigrants into camps. Create jobs ‘digging the death pits’.
    • Replace ‘Separation of church and state’ in the Constitution with a copy of the ‘Right to bare arms’ amendment, but this time in all caps.
    • Repeal all environmental protection laws. The “free market” will ensure companies don’t pollute. Even if they did, climate change is a hoax so it doesn’t matter.
    • Eliminate all healthcare plans. If God wants you dead, and you’re poor, so be it.
    • Eliminate term limits for conservative politicians. Implement term limits for liberal supreme court judges.

    Party 2

    • Laws that aren’t just a toddler’s power fantasy

    Fucking Microsoft, with their fully featured toolsets, libraries for everything, fantastic IDE, second fantastic IDE, and cloud infrastructure that actually delivers on the promise of cloud, and isn’t just “bare metal bullshit in the sky”. Hate those fucking pricks.






  • Fuck these things. Even if they aren’t bad for the environment, they absolutely wreck your yard. In the summer, each week, I’ll go around my yard and clean out 15-16 massive webs. Some of them 40 feet up. Most of them face level. The webs are strong so they easily get filled with leaves. Your yard ends up looking like a fucking haunted house with webs everywhere and leaves floating in the sky. Not to mention the females are HUGE - 6 inches across the legs sometimes. Total nightmares.







  • Hear me out: Ernest Saves Christmas

    Been quoting lines from this movie for years:

    • Every time we see Santa at the mall: (lean it to the wife) “His real name is ‘Santos’”
    • Everytime we see a sleigh decoration: “‘Slay’! Not ‘Sleigh’”
    • “Call it a fifth sense. Call it extra sensory perspiration.”
    • “Right as rain sugar. Pork’s my meat!”
    • “It’s all dem movie people want. Poison!”
    • “Having walked from the airport, I’ll be dead soon”
    • … and much much more

  • It’s fallen out of popularity over the years, but reading programming books. The big ones. There is an expectation that a book will contain every bit of info about a technology, and you can learn it, in depth, in one place. Online articles, videos, etc., often just skim the surface. You don’t get that deep learning and facts that the books would have. I find even “Official documentation” online is sparse and often doesn’t include examples to gain understanding.

    Unfortunately, the pace of change, especially in cloud services, cause books to be out of date too quickly, so I don’t see it making a comeback.



  • It has a paragraph with the explanation: Basically he says our behaviors are driven by our brain chemistry, genetics, and biases formed by prior events. Every decision we make is a culmination of those things. We think we’re in control, but we’re really just following a pre-ordained script.

    Can’t decide if I’m onboard with that. Definitely not onboard with letting criminals off the hook for bad deeds. If your “brain script” leads you to kill, you just need to be removed from society. Sorry.
