Considering...

> In the state, there had been no legal age to wed, allowing children to get married as long as their parents consent and a judge signs off on the nuptials.

I don't even think the headline was sensationalist.

> the story that came from stakeholders was that the accounting team found the error, and I left in disgrace (despite that not being my department?).

That sounds like defamation to me.

Agreed. I've done some crazy stuff in apartments. Last place I rented I installed a projector on the ceiling and ran wires through the ceiling and walls because it'd be ugly otherwise. Also converted a ceiling light into an outlet to power it. Patched the drywall before I moved out and the landlord never needed to know.

I'd cut a block of wood to fit snuggly to the left of the knob, wedge it in place and screw the stepper in to that.

.....or just screw into the AC unit somewhere discrete and hope no one notices.

My favorite one has to be "production ready" it will say that about completely broken code without hesitation. LLM says it's production ready, lets ship!!

I agree with this, but it seems so crazy to me. How can money be a motivator when you're that rich. I'm not even "rich" but I'm already at a point where money is far from my #1 motivator.

I LOVE puppies, but if I had a trillion of them the last thing I'd want is another puppy.

I seriously remember this game being hard... I finished with $500k cash, $11m in the bank, and $0 debt. 100/100 score. High school me is very proud.

The phone. Wow. Great solution..... Literally the whole point of putting information online is so your employees don't have to waste time answering the same question 999999x per day.

> If you don't want to do business with them just because you shun platforms

I don't do business with them because I can't access their hours, menu, services, etc... I've had this happen a few times. I'm not avoiding these businesses because I'm a snob. It's because I literally can't access the information. So, I go back to google and find a business that provides the information I need to decide if the business meets my needs before traveling to their location.

Yeeeeah, I made it as far as...

> It was, however, not possible until now for arbitrary text to point to URLs, just as on webpages

before saying "oh... no.... I hate this. Please don't."

OP mentioned using this to scale WordPress instances in one of the comments. So I assume that had something to do with the choice. It probably wouldn't be TOO hard to support multiple dialects of SQL in the future though.

What's wrong with kafka or what WILL BE wrong with kafka?

They explicitly don't have a "nostr coin" or do anything "on chain" which I applaud them for especially since the Venn Diagram of Nostr and the crypto community is basically a circle.

This is also the construction used for FAFO

FA = "try" (as a vulgar slang)

When you de-vulgar/de-slang it it becomes: try and find out
