I take it it’s not pasteurized? I’ve never had milk go bad on me. But then I’m living in a country that takes food safety seriously.

Are you sure the container was sealed when you bought it?

Luckily I learned programming when I was already using the NEO layout. I couldn’t imagine typing parentheses and the like in German…

Imagine thinking about what you’re going to code beforehand. What a world we live in!

Single responsibility. I deplore my backend developers who think that just because you’re mauling a single (Java) stream for an extended operation, it’s ok to write a single wall-of-text, 5 lines long, 160 characters wide. Use fucking line breaks, for fuck’s sake!

Sometimes there’s literally no other way (that I know of). When you’re debugging concurrency issues, stopping all time with a debugger just isn’t an option.

For every department, IT knows of a canary. If that person of … questionable mental ability … finds their way around the new systems, everyone else will, too.

WTF‽ I’m a web dev for 5 years, 8 if you count university, and I’ve never heard about bookmarklets. Why would that even begin to work?

Man, this is so amazing!

If you count the programming language you use as ‘platform’, then yes. Python rounds both 11.5 and 12.5 to 12.

WhatsApp: “You may have unread messages”

Thanks, WhatsApp. Aren’t you useful.

I don’t use smart phones a lot, so feel free to disregard my opinion. But to me, swiping to the left means “next”, like turning a page in a book. If you wanted to leave the site, you’d go ‘back’ to where you came from, which means swiping from left to right to me.

It’s the first time I’ve seen it. Are we supposed to memorize the specific length of each hashing function now?

This has literally nothing to do with Ubuntu.

The volume meter is cut off on my old version. I assume that Audacity reads the dimensions of my internal screen (2560px) instead of the one I’m actually using (1920px) when computing the width of the meter.

Kind of you to assume I have your favorite package manager installed

The audacity website didn’t mention Flatpak, so I thought they didn’t support it. However…

It’s Audacity’s AppImage. The Mint repos are terribly outdated.

My bluetooth headphones fade in music. One of the reasons I’m going to look for a replacement.

CD players should also apply error correction. It could be your player was just shitty.
