Okay

And Daylight Saving Time doesn’t cause it, that would be Standard Time.

I don’t want to be pedantic but it really irks me that people (not you) don’t know the difference and they keep saying they prefer one of the two but it’s always the opposite of what they’re thinking. With legislation being talked about every switch, it would be helpful for people to know what the hell they’re talking about.

Personally, I prefer DST living in CA but I do like Arizona’s year-round ST considering how hot it is in the evenings.

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.

Yeah that’s a whole other can of worms. I see this a lot at work where people are asking for direct database credentials and cringe every time.

Is it though? I haven’t used a framework since probably 2007 that doesn’t do this. There are the smaller, more DIY frameworks out there but I’ve never used them professionally.

I was always a fan of .cue for this. Dump it all into a big audio file and let the .cue sort it out.

That’s a lot more involved than what I ever did. I only put an Enya track inside of some totally-not-Enya song to confuse my friends, but only if you seeked the track.

Lately I’ve been dealing with tons of invalid byte sequences in MySQL dumps and it makes me question what the hell they’re allowing in there.

My favorite thing was burning discs with hidden tracks, especially before track 1. Or inserting a song/sound within a track requiring you to seek to find it.

Too bad for me this was around the time CDs were on their way out, but I hold hope that my old friends from those days might still have those discs.

Unless you’re coding from scratch it’s hard to not do this with any modern framework.

I’ve been doing web development for something like 20 years now and I just can’t imagine how shitty your backend is if this is an issue.

How do you complete the captcha? For me it just loops; it’s to the point where not having the original link to an article is actually more annoying.

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 wrote that “Gulf of America” is only used by an authoritarian regime and “not widely used.”

I’m a developer and am as happy as can be! The execs like to push tons of resources on us all about how to move up, manage projects, blah blah—thanks but no thanks.
