“US government settles for $200m” – news tomorrow, probably

The people are welcoming, the government is not. I’d stay away a few years; hopefully there will be a huge correction. If not we’ll come to you.

I would contribute to a GoFundMe if he wanted to sue for libel.

I think the grammar and capitalization is too normal. The president isn’t smart enough to write something coherent.

It really comes down to the calculus of how much I like them vs what did they actually do (with some things being truly unforgivable).

For example, Sylvester Stallone recently came out in big support of Trump. To me, that makes him a huge ass. That said, I’ll still watch Rocky 4 if it comes on (all the while, in the back of my head thinking “wow, really, Trump… that’s your guy?”). So my perception of him and his movies change, but also it’s his right to be an idiot.

In the same vein, Rob Schneider has recently made his whole personality a bitter old conservative "comic’. He really brings little of value to the table, so he can easily be dismissed. His value/drama ratio isn’t worth giving him the time of day – we’ll outside of this example.

I can’t totally divorce the person from their content, but I try when their stuff is great and what they did isn’t too repulsive.

Yeah honestly I debated putting that one in. Under the Bridge is a solid song, and flea and the drummer are independently good.

Honestly just wanted to remind people he admitted to dating a 16 year old when he was 24.

You have to be incredibly good at something for me to ignore you being an asshole. There are also certain things that are unforgivable even if the art is good.

It’s like Cosby was funny, but he drugged and raped people, so it’s hard to laugh at him now.

Recently switched to a new contract, which resulted in me switching from IDEA Ultimate to vscode. This picture is terribly accurate.

In intellij I usually do code reviews by checking out the code and comparing the branch to origin/main to step through the changes. Just a right click menu option to compare branches.

I took for granted that this is just a thing IDEs should do, so I looked in vain for a while before googling it and finding out I need a plugin for that. (If I’m wrong please help me find the button, I still believe it must be in there somewhere. Surely the owners of GitHub can compare branches?)

Kevin Spacey. Bill Cosby. Danny Masterson. Steven Tyler. Anthony Kedis.

They are all gross now that I know more about them; some moreso than others.

It also gives a foothold for martial law. Steve Bannon talked about other options for a third term, but wouldn’t elaborate. Absolutely a lever the current administration would pull.

The article states he is leaving for a new job, so my guess is he has been interviewing and considering his options.

I know this one weird trick to avoid this…

A lot of companies have been doing this for years. AWS literally sells this as a service: https://www.mturk.com/

If you are searching by a primary key or other indexed id you should be fine. Here are a couple of articles to check out:

https://www.atlassian.com/data/databases/how-does-indexing-work

https://www.red-gate.com/simple-talk/featured/postgresql-indexes-what-they-are-and-how-they-help/

The TLDR is a where clause that hits an index doesn’t have to go through all the rows in the table.

Port and left have the same number of letters, so that works in a pinch.

7 was decent too; I personally feel like 8 is where things went off the rails.

Last year I owed 10k USD. I certainly cared then.

Overall I don’t think about it until I do my taxes. That said, I’d happily pay more if everyone else got healthcare, good infrastructure, and a clean environment.

Just a screen that says, “corn again, huh?”

I plan on being dead then, so do what you want with my digital wake.

Jfc. This is terrifying / terrible. Thank goodness he was able to get free.
