Bender Bending Rodriguez would approve of this title.

This title sounds like a Futerama joke if you're not in the know.

As a father of two daughters, I'm convinced the writers of Bluey have cameras in my house /s. There are so many times we have had a similar experience to one of the episodes. As my kids are now older than Bluey and Bingo, they still get excited when a new episode is released. We love Bluey in our house.

Are you implying that marriage is, somehow, the end state of relationship building? I can assure you it does not end at marriage.

I'm just gonna say that I belive Factorio is the best railroad simulator. Second only to OpenTTD.

Can we get a video flag on this please?

Most important, unlimited time.

I don't see anything in here that I would call a "How-To Guide." This reads mostly like an ad for LinkedIn and then they threw in a very poor ChatGPT reference at the end to hit the keywords.

This was a feature on SCSI disk controllers. I remember one controller that had dip switches to set the spin up sequence number, and then you would configure the controller to wait for all the drives to be spinning before it tried to bring the array online.

I'm going from memory here but each Ultra 320 SCSI HDD had a startup current of almost 2 Amps so if you had a disk shelf with 24 drives and stack a few shelves in each rack you could do some serious power damage if you didn't plan the startup sequence right.

As a former Snowmaker, they're just called guns. Snow guns if you're trying to be specific.

Like several others have posted here you are in a great position to make some very simple changes that will have big results.

If you're looking for reading resources I found "Working Effectively with Legacy Code" by Michael Feathers to be very useful helping me build a plan. Yes it's an older book but that helped me appreciate this is not a new problem.

Glad I'm not the only one who reads it that way.

Maybe link to an about page. Dropping me straight to a login/create account is off putting. I'm sure it's a fun and interesting game but I want to know something about the content before forking over bits of PII.

We've used Slim for most things these days. I love it for its lightweight, standards based approach. I can grab PSR compliant libraries from Symphony or Laravel and usually drop them in with not too much effort.

I used NetZero for a summer by setting up a dumb dialer machine that shared its network connection to the rest of the house. The dumb dialer autoconnected to NetZero when outbound traffic was detected and since there was no monitor plugged in no one ever saw the ads. Was a pretty simple solution for a couple broke college guys.
