Oh, I hadn’t thought of that though I should have because I recently corrected double slashes in a codebase that interacts with Windows-based servers.

I was about to comment that this is so fake, but it turns out I’ve been on Linux/UNIX too long and flags, paths just look super janky in Windowsland.

As a business it’s possible to use Amazon for fulfillment only so that you can sell anywhere and have it shipped by Amazon.

No, but I’m genetically predisposed to being very sensitive to caffeine so there’s that.

Same, but the shakes are from both caffeine and starving. Not sure if I’m eating due to hunger or because it feels like my heart is going to explode.

Eh, out of all my own traffic I’ve MITM’d it’s mostly been third-party SDKs in apps doing creepy shit.

Down to hate on Gulf of America but when it comes to privacy it’s debatable.

Irrelevant: Scared me for a sec, thought I had an IP leak as I VPN to Switzerland but remembered I explicitly allowed Maps to be routed through a US VPN.

I mean that’s fine, we’re all different. If your partner doesn’t mind doing the shopping that’s fine too.

The problem here is that people really find it “unmanly” to go to the grocery store.

A lot of these rules are stupid.

Recently there was a news article about a politician dissing Kamala Harris’ husband for grocery shopping with her. The fact that anyone would even stop to consider it not being “masculine” is corny as fuck.

I do this with my wife all the time—we both eat, and we have wildly different diets (I’m vegan)—why would I just pile all my shit on her plate and make it her responsibility? Because I might be seen as gay by someone in a MAGA hat?

Running a side business it’s like:

Client: Why doesn’t this work?

Me: The same reason I told you I didn’t want to implement it in the first place.

Client: surprised Pikachu face Well just do <some other hack that’s equally bad>

Now let’s fix GitHub’s glitchy-ass JavaScript on pull requests!

Oh definitely but since I am far too lazy to look it up in the moment I’d rather err on the conservative side.

I disagree, they will always cringe. Oh and I’m not a boomer by the way.

But then we can’t lock them up by the thousands in warehouses and/or put them in tiny cages!! What fun is it if we can’t first torture the poor dears?

What in the boomers is going on here? Are we Facebook now?

You eat another species’ menstruation? Byyyyye

Zero because I don’t have chickens and fuck animal abuse.
