That’s a much better question, though! “Here’s a stack trace and the source code. Walk me through where to go from here.”

Most places use at least some open source software, so most places can do this, and if you ask your sys admin team nicely, there’s probably some stack traces available, hot off the prod.

That’s the Medditerain’t, right there.

We need to ban fully automatic transmissions.

1. Not everything is going to evolve into crabs.

2. I’ve read a wikipedia page about the Dunning Kruger effect, so I understand it as well as an expert.

3. Name brand Band-aid self adhesive sterile bandages really are that much better. If you grew up using anything else, your parents didn’t love you, or you were extremely poor (or both).

4. Tryptophan is not the thing that makes you tired after overeating on Thanksgiving. It’s mostly carbs, and the fact that so many people uncritically repeat this easily disproven lie is a sign of how little concern for the truth almost everyone has, almost all the time.

You’re really going to put that up against “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen” by Mariah Carey?

“Sporange” does. If you’re especially bad at pronouncing words, many other things also rhyme with orange, like flange, range, and monkey.

People with big mouths (like me, I have a big mouth) eat hotdogs in bites that span left to right, and top to bottom along (approximately) a plane that lies perpendicular to the axis along which the hotdog was extruded. With this approach, the condiments merely have to run the length of the hotdog (or just the bun if you dislike messy eating) in order for them to participate in every bite.

Only small mouth dweebs that can’t fit a wide, juicy frank into their mouth when they’re gobbling down a… Nevermind, I think I got sidetracked.

I’m destined to go to heavim forever.

I won the bet. Please send me the money at your earliest convenience.

None of the other openings you mention are big enough for a dick like him.

I dislike systemd less than I dislike sysvinit, so it has that going for it.

Owls don’t weigh 16 pounds (except for fat owls). 300 kilowatts is a rate of energy, not a total quantity of energy. 300 kilowatt hours (which is possibly what they meant?) Is only around 260,000 kilocalories (which is called “calories” on food labels because units of measure were made up by humans). According to an extremely naive google search, that would only take an owl 5 years to consume, rather than 10. If the original number were correct, that would mean this owl eats 8,000 calories per day. Which is not typical.

Onto the broader point, the efficiency of birds in flight is not as simple as this image suggests. There is no (useful) formula that takes the weight of a bird and the distance it will fly and tells you how many calories that takes. Birds can fly at different elevations, at different speeds. They can fly with or against the wind. They can change many things about how they fly to be more efficient or less efficient.

If you really want to know how many calories it takes for an owl to cross the ocean, first get the owl to the point of starvation, then bring it on a boat to the middle of the ocean. Feed it a fixed number of Tootsie pops, then sink the boat. With nowhere else to land, the owl will be forced to fly to shore. Based on how far the owl makes it, you can determine how far each tootsie pop allowed it to fly, and derive calories per mile from that.

They would hit the mountains at that height, and the FAA requires them to be up above airplane traffic anyways. After that, it gets crowded right above the launch pads, and sometimes there’s shooting stars and stuff, so some satellites are forced to go even higher.

A keep

I suspect it started with self censorship (“as f”) rather than abbreviation.

That’s Anthony Daniels, playing the role of the god of the Ewoks.

It’s already been made perfect once. What updates would you make it divinely inspired code?

I distro hopped about every 4 months from ~12-22, never really feeling like I’d found the right platform. Sometimes I would dual boot (or just run) Windows, and for a while I had Windows XP in a state I could tolerate.

For several years after 22, I ran Windows at home, and kept Linux for work. I basically just wanted to game, and Windows was good enough for that. Finally, something came up that I needed a home server for, and I chose Arch, based largely on my experiences from several years ago. Arch had been more stable for me, and when it did break, it always felt like the tools to fix it existed. Ubuntu and derivatives broke for me mostly in “Oops, system is dead. Maybe reinstall?” ways, which I didn’t want on my server. Other distros gave me an assortment of problems, from updates taking too long, to lacking support for a WM I enjoyed, to driver issues.

Once I was regularly SSHing from Windows to Arch, I missed the things I could do on Linux (more than just games), and steam had made Linux support from a lot of games better, so I reinstalled my gaming PC as Arch too.

I added a lot of things to my server, and had more problems with some third party tools every time e.g. elasticsearch, mongodb, or postgres updated, so I added a kubernetes cluster with an immutable OS. I tried 3 before settling on Talos, and now when a workload on the server breaks, I move it to kubernetes. That pace has worked out for me, but now the server does no heavy lifting, so I’m experimenting with local LLM on it.

I was going to take it in a 1987 Toyota Camry, manual transmission, but the clutch burned up (not my fault… Maybe), and my parents didn’t want to get it fixed. I took the test in the driving school’s only manual transmission car, which was… A gray sedan, with a second brake pedal for the passenger.

Which mass transit vehicle did you pass your test in? How did parallel parking go?
