I wish I could tell my PM let’s go back to the old delivery schedule so I can read the whole thing and not just generate code, tests and documentation at breakneck speed.

I haven’t bought a lot of DVDs lately, but the ones I have all were from used DVD stores. I think the artists were paid once.

It was such a long time ago that the people who made the mistake have already retired, maybe.

Since I had some trouble getting my credit card accepted at the apple store I always order my apple products by phone and pay with cash on delivery. When the delivery person comes with the box and leaves with the cash it feels good.

I tried Orion a while ago: in that version background tabs with YouTube on pause made the bottom of my m1 air get very hot. I really liked that it supported chrome extensions but battery life was not great. I’ll give it another go now that I’ve been using arc for some time.

I live in a country where annual checkups are mandatory (companies are fined by the government a lot of money for each employee who does not get it done). I've been told a couple times now that something is a bit off, not too concerning by itself, but it requires more tests to rule out suspects from a list. had a lot of blood tests done, nothing unusual came up, still being regularly told to keep doing tests in between checkups. I can say perhaps one of the upsides is I get nudged by the doctors to keep a healthy lifestyle.

Here in Japan I often hear stories about kids raised bilingual being put into special needs classes because some schools consider it a cognitive impairment. Since my family lives abroad, I would like to teach my kids english at home and only use it in private settings, but feels weird having to hide something like that (also, half kids are sort of "expected" to speak english anyway).

It happened to me some time ago but a bit different: I made an anagram with my last name + first name and then I tried to create several online accounts with it. I was registering a discord account but turns out part of one word in the anagram had an offensive term from the 50s that I wasn't aware of and btw it was discriminatory of my own race! so I felt bad for having an outdated kind of racist new mail address.

I’ve been using orion for a while, but sometimes with a couple of YouTube tabs open the bottom of my M1 MacBook Air gets uncomfortably hot.
