Ruby has enough syntactic sugar to give you type 2 diabetes honestly.

The Twilight Zone - Nightmare at 20,000 feet, I believe

Is it really valid to call permalink() in that context, since it requires &self? There’s no self in that context afaik. Can’t test it now but it looks suspicious

EDIT: Invalid since the comment was updated

Barring societal collapse I believe I will be able to retire, but that’s only because I’ve gotten extraordinarily lucky in life.

I’m sure it’s possible to find some good places on the island, but in my opinion, why risk it? Thailand has so much other stuff to offer at way less of a risk.

Pronounced “poo-ket”, messing the pun up somewhat

Two of my least favourite places I’ve visited have been Cancún and Phuket. Both were minor stops in larger journeys, and I had fairly low expectations, but hot damn these places truly sucked ass. The countries they reside in have some truly great stuff, but you won’t find them in these places.

The correct answer is neither because neither are particularly sensible means of transportation.

Barring that, train good plane bad

Circumstances today say no, but I would definitely consider it in the short-term, like maybe next year or so.

I have a lot of charging issues with my Pixel Buds Pro. Other than that they are pretty good headphones, but it does get a bit annoying.

Sounds ideal tbh

BofA deez nuts lmao gottem

Fair warning, the battery consumption is pretty high - plan accordingly.

With a little bit of know-how, you can get Balatro running on your phone, and Balatro is amazing.

To do it, buy the game then follow the instructions at https://github.com/blake502/balatro-mobile-maker

Read some books on the subject

Never Split the Difference might be appropriate. Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion is a great read. Getting to Yes/Getting Past No may also be decent.

Understand “what kind of cards you’re sitting on”. Before that even happens, ensure that you have good cards

Concrete example: You’re looking to increase your salary. You can do it either by convincing your current workplace to increase it, or you can look for a new job.

The cards you’re sitting on: How valuable you are to the company, and how likely you are to leave if you don’t get what you want.

How to improve your hand before you get to the negotiating table: Try getting some competing offers for jobs.

If you’re the less experienced negotiator, avoid negotiating live

When negotiating salary for a new position, the recruiter likely has far more experience negotiating. They will know techniques to try to get you to commit to a lower number than is possible. To avoid this from happening, move negotiations from in-person/on the phone to email. Give yourself a lot of time to process all information.

I basically already do it with Futurama, to the great confusion of everyone around me.

Not to say that I think learning to edit Vim-style is worthwhile, but I think using Macros can be quite fun to do.

Recording a sequence of operations and then repeating it multiple times can potentially save a lot of editing time.

• One professional-private (which is an alias to my private one)
• One work email

There are a few reasons for this, some of the most important being:

• The languages were not designed with speed primarily in mind and as such made some design decisions that fundamentally cannot be optimized around
• Authors of programs in these languages prioritize things other than performance when writing the programs.

Speed is not just about processors becoming faster - this is a large part of why DSA is important to learn as a programmer.
