That’s the point though. They are called noon/midday and midnight. There is no am/pm on the 12. It’s 11:59pm, midnight, 12:01am, and 11:59am, midday, 12:01pm. Really it’s not that confusing, it’s just two points in time in the whole day and it’s fairly easily to tell which of them you are at unless you are close to the poles.we’ve managed to cope this long with them.

That's a lot of mental gymnastics to say 24h clock is easier

Google does use theirs for public-facing landing pages even [1], just not uniformly, but that's very on-brand for Google as an org.

Where have you seen .aws in use though?

AWS uses the TLD internally

What enterprise uses a free open source github project to make bespoke toy html from markdown?

"It won't scale" is how over engineered code gets written

zoover2020 · 9 days ago
I've used similar software before and it surprises you how many open source dependencies I've seen in enterprise

Meanwhile, I'm over here going from https://zim-wiki.org -> HTML

Plus a little rsync script.

Hard for me to not look at this and find it all very silly.

This is great and all but won't scale (as in, enterprise scale). I understand the knee-jerk reaction but at this point it misses the point about what is trying to be achieved here

The mental toughness, discipline, and higher energy levels that come with exercise are more important to me than physical appearance or living longer, and at this point almost anything else in life.

Wake up at 4am, run hill repeats for miles and then go into work. I guarantee no incident or colleague will trigger a stress response. You will feel as cool as a cucumber and when an urgent issue does come up you will handle it with absolute mental clarity. That afternoon drowsiness will also not hit you at all, counterintuitive right?

By 9pm you will fall asleep no matter what happened that day.

This kind of work gives you an edge on everyone. You look at things and say, “shit this is easy compared to what I did this morning” and you will feel mentally fresh.

Amen. What is the routine that works for you?

It will happen. But, that’s part of the game. The alternative? A mind in a useless body.

There's no such mapping, you could do a text search and if the item name matches then maybe US ASIN 2785334 should correspond to UK ASIN 3894948, or maybe some third party just named something ambiguously. They're essentially GUIDs and essentially separate businesses.
zoover2020 · a month ago
Sorry this is just not true. ASINs can be the same cross marketplace. There are lower level identifiers available if needed

I don’t believe that 78% of websites run on PHP

Anyone who cafés about security would stay away from PHP. Certainly more than 22% of the web.

> We found files shown earlier in a PR to receive more comments than files shown later

I often stop reviewing a PR if I have too many comments on it already that need to be addressed so I wouldn't say this is necessarily what it sounds like (later files get less attention). Also, a comment on an early file might address a concern in a later file that will be fixed by the time I actually review the later files.

That said, keep your PRs short and you won't have to worry about stuff like that.

Can't seem to get anyone else to Baird the train of small CRs. It's so obvious

Just like all the fitness content.

Get couple shredded guys and gals to show off how fit they are so everyone feels guilty they are snacking past 8PM.

Sell another batch of “how to do pushups” followed by “how to do pushups vol.2” with “pushup pro this time even better”.

Where in the end normal people are not getting paid for getting shredded, they get paid for doing their stuff.

I just constantly feel like I am not a proper dev because I mostly skip unit tests - but on the other hand I built last 15 years couple of systems that worked and were bringing in value.

zoover2020 · 2 months ago
Why would you skip unit tests? Especially in the AI age. You can quickly verify your behavior. Also, by not writing them you're also missing out on opportunities to modularize your code.

Obviously, this assumes you write enterprise grade code. YMMV
