I like to use the monorepo tools without the monorepo repo. If that makes any god damn sense. I use NX at my job and the monorepo was getting out of hand, 6 hour pipeline builds, 2 hours testing, etc. So I broke the repo into smaller pieces. This wouldn't have been possible if I wasn't already using the monorepo tools universally through the project but it ended up working well.

I have this. When it first started I thought there were like secret gang wars going on in my apartment complex. I would wake up hearing a BANG. I called 911 a couple of time even thinking it was gunshots, but they police said no one else heard anything. I started asking my neighbors if they had heard it too. That's when I started to realize that I was hearing things. I talked to my doctor and that's when I learned about exploding head syndrome.

I bought the original kickstarter version of the oculus. I was very excited about the whole VR thing taking off. Ultimately though it was a very nauseating experience. It got so bad that the smell of the headset's cushion was enough to trigger nausea without even putting it on my face. I've heard the newer stuff is less nauseating but I don't want to know.

Clearly in the before times, prior to the madness setting in.

You know what else bothers me. If I hover over a thumbnail for a video, that now counts as a view and gets added to my history. Clogging up my feed with more algorithmic horseshit I don't want to watch. I'm thinking of just using nebula because I mostly watch science videos and I'm tired of the algo inserting shit I'm not the least bit interested in.

Jira is one of those tools where infinite configurability leads to infinite complexity.

I saw this on hackaday 43 seconds to crack bitlocker is pretty badass.

I find I have to end up searching though time in order to get the results I want. Especially as a developer. A bug that has the same error 8 years ago may not be the same bug now. So I tell google to only show results for the last year and tada I get what I want. Usually.

> Setting aside safety concerns

Nuclear is the safest energy source per kilo of fuel mined and spent.

El Nino has a lot to do with snow pack. I don't know where you are at but from the Vail Basin to Keystone that usually means less snow. Anecdotally of course, that is just my own experience over the last 30 years of skiing here in CO.

> I think a lot of non-tech events like D&D/running/board games/birdwatching/crafts/etc. now have left Meetup or never were there. I see a lot of these types of events promoted on Instagram and sometimes Facebook, because there's a bigger audience there. There are still some on my local Meetup, though.

Perhaps that's why I no longer see them, I've deleted most of my social media so I don't have access to FB or IG for events.

Ditto, all the interesting things are gone and the only active groups are "Interesting Singles in their 20s and 30s" No more PUGs for D&D and board games. No tech meetups either.
