Overall I think preventing discussion is healthy

Did you mean unhealthy?

Being a nitrous fiend is bad.

Eventually you feel like one of those dudes dying on Mt. Everest. But at least it’s not ether.

Any place where you don’t step on rats when you get up to pee in the middle of the night is OK by me. Yes, I have lived in places where I stepped on rats at night.

You eventually reach an age where you want the bed at your center of gravity so you can just tip yourself on and off.

My neighbors tend to retaliate when I crank music and I value silence at least some of the time. Good headphones are enough for me.

I assumed he was sitting on a portable commode.

No Kaoss pad?

Yes.

“As a developer given I am working on page X Then all functionality of page X is correct”

Heh, I know exactly what accent to read this with.

My god, that’s worse than Wonder buying shitty software from Sweetgreen for $186 million.

3 coders and 1597 managers.

“Uh, we need you to clear out your desk ASAP.”
“Sure, just submit a JIRA ticket and I’ll get right on it.”

Black holes are edible?

Dude’s worst crimes are being addicted to meth and listening to Walt’s advice.

I guess assassinating the other chemist qualifies as “listening to Walt’s advice”, but murder is technically his worst crime.

There’s gotta be some way to design merges to encourage zipper merging

You’d need lights … which most people would ignore anyway.

I’m talking about when I and that driver arrive at the same time

I recently came to realize that many of my coworkers know that the driver to your right at a stop intersection has the right of way, but they don’t know that’s secondary to the fact that you have the right of way if you arrived at the intersection before they did. The catch is that my coworkers are school bus drivers like me. Like, actual professional drivers don’t know this shit.

I was laid off in 2019 by a large west coast tech giant as part of a mass layoff. We had the option of trying to find a new internal job but every job posting involved AI (seven years ago!) and nobody that I knew even got a reply from any application. Now I’m a school bus driver and 100X happier even though I make like 1/5 of what I used to make. The plot twist is that AI is probably going to replace school bus drivers sooner or later, flattened children be damned.

Cops and big city racism

Jesus Christ you still have a DOS umbrella?

A friend of mine had a Commodore 20 with no tape drive. Not only could we only have one game at a time installed, but also we had to manually type in the code for the game each time.
