Sounds like you’re doing great and picking up a lot from your little one already. Congratulations to you all. It’s extremely rewarding.

I once found a pad of tear off $2 on the ground of the departures drop off at O’hare airport. I thought it was a novelty initially but after closer inspection found the bills to be real. It’s been a 20 year mystery to me how that came to be since I’ve never seen anything like it since. Now I’m wondering if I found Woz’s pad.

That would be quite interesting because when I was very young I crank called him after finding his number online. He collects phone numbers with repeating digits and mine has 6 repeated numbers. I guess he found my number peculiar and picked up! In my young and starstruck state I panicked and hung up. How coincidental to have potentially two obscure path crossings with the Woz.

Indeed, the same mechanism is used by Bloomberg for gift links. A signed JWT with expiry 7 days from creation. A fitting use case in my opinion.

As opposed to Real Investments which are not made to try and make a profit?

If code is free speech it wouldn’t matter whether they had good OpSec or not is what I’m saying

Explain that to the tornado cash guys

I love the sound effects

This is the right answer. He’s immediately closing the browser after clicking the button. He should wait for a success UI or at least that the resulting network call finishes with success or a failure to retry on. Not lambdas fault, it’s performing as coded.

Similar message, among many other valuable bits, in the book The Courage to be Disliked. Very good read, no fluff like a lot of psychology books. The title is misleading, there’s a strong element of being helpful to others rather than being disliked. I’d recommend it to anyone.

Finance language for million. Mil Mil aka thousand thousand. Mil is Latin for thousand hence why CPM is cost per thousand, not cost per million impressions.

The increased distance something must be from a larger car for it to be visible also contributes to accidents.

It does. Even waving your arms in a still cold pool will feel much colder than staying still.

As a fully remote employee for years who now lives in zoom I have never seen a coworker hit a vape on a call and it would be very off putting if they did, in the same way smoking a cig while on a call would be.

Context: work at a big tech co.

Perhaps organized religion was a Chesterton’s Fence that we removed at our own peril.

Similar to this, does anyone know if a browser extension that I can paste in (or choose from some saved snippets) a series of playwright or puppeteer steps and have it execute? I could use the saved snippets in the sources tab of dev tools but miss the auto waiting and other niceties. This project seems a bit too slow and non-deterministic.
