Im Def racking up interest but I’m lowkey banking on student loans being forgiven before the extra interest becomes a problem. Like, I’m gonna assume that at worst I’m adding an extra year of payments, but that’s going to be future me’s problem in like 15 years.
I definitely don’t qualify for finacial hardship in any sense of the term. I’m in the high end of middle class income. I’ve been participating in the not paying as a form of protest for student loan reform/forgiveness. I’ll be relatively fine when payments of $500 a month start back up. It’ll suck but not gonna put me into hardship.
It’s really about solidarity at this point cause I’ll be in student debt for an insane amount of time. Then again, even tho I’m okay, I don’t have much of a runway if I were to get an unexpected layoff
I’m not sure what I’m gonna do. I think I might choose to miss one or two months just to see if we all hold the line
Now that bribes thank you gifts are legal for officials, it’s not like we are even asking them to cut off all their corruption money faucets…
So first, I will say that the phrase “stopping me from switching” kind of implies that I’m looking to switch but can’t.
I used to have android between the iPhone 4s and the iPhone X. Back then, there were significant features that I wanted that I couldn’t get from iOS. Tho now there isn’t much that android has that I don’t feel I have access to that is significant .
As for what keeps me around and happy with iPhone is
Over the years, I’ve gone from being a major tech enthusiast to now not wanting to have to futz around when I’m not on the clock. I still like getting tech and adding it to my home, but I don’t get in the weeds anymore. I just want my shit to work. I want my stuff to just work for my family.
I dunno, tweaking and futzing used to be important to me. But now confidence and simplicity matter more to me now
I think you said elsewhere that they are new and that they are photoelectric rather than the radioactive ones.
I’m purely taking a shot in the dark but I’m wondering if you should try sealing up the hole(s) in the wall that you made to run electric and to mount the detector
My thinking is that dust might be getting caught up in a tiny draft through that hole and it’s so close to the source that it sets it off. Cause like, if wind hits the side of the house, there can be some positive pressure in the crawlspace which often also means inside the walls.
I guess maybe somehow there could be some stream or condensation as well. If it’s right by the front door and the humidity is high, maybe the hot air from outside meets the AC air and causes a tiny amount of condensation. Or if you live in hellscape temperatures, maybe there could be some vapor generated because of the hot air.
We’ve been spending decades curating our perception by management in order to make sure we all have jobs. He’s gonna ruin the whole industry if we don’t shut him the hell up
Depends on the type of RAID, probably not needed for just expanding storage but having one that allows for a drive to fail is absolutely still prudent
I’m gonna be completely honest. I don’t truly get all the inner working of git. I’m a senior DevOps Engineer and been using git for a decade, but is git is simular to sed
or awk
for me. I know how to do what I want really well but when shit goes wrong, I’m flying by the seat of my pants.
A lot of times, I just know what to do to fix things because it’s rote memory with substitutions. But if you needed me to explain upstreams and rebases in actual detail, I’d be in trouble. But it rarely becomes an actual problem to the level where I’ll dedicate time to learning all the advanced stuff.
That said, I’ve learnt that most senior people also just pretend they get it all but instead are just relying on rote memorization and basic concepts. Anyone else here in the same camp of being a fraud with git?
If I had to pick for myself, I’d pick guillotine. Feel like it’s success rate has to be near 100%
Damn, imagine what that must be like for him right now. He woke up fullly knowing he was going to killed that day. Which is already wild to really think about what that must be like. But then imagine what today must be like? I have no idea what feelings he must be feeling but I assume they are very complicated feelings
Losing your job with 0 notice is catastrophic for most people. Especially when you have to hope your job offers severence out of the kindness of their heart
IPv6 was a mistake. We should have just added an addition octet
I tell people I’m a software engineer but in reality I’m a config file engineer
Here’s a link I found that might be good if you are interested in more:

There are different levels of effemeriality. The simplest example I use daily would be an autoscaling group in AWS. Especially if you use Spot Instances to save money, thi gs may scale in and out whenever.
So if a development team creates a new autoscaling group and I need to get into an instance to test something, unless I add stuff to their IaC, I’m stuck with their configuration. I need to assume that every time I ssh into one of those instances, it’s a brand new instance. But it’d be a big challenge for me to go to their repo and make a PR to alias a command whenever an instance in that resource is created
Stuff can be even more temporary if it’s something like an ECS task which creates a container with a read only filesystem only when a task is needed to be done. But I don’t want to get too deep in the weeds (or deeper than I already have)
terraform workspace will at least stick around for a while so you might be in and out of the same system multiple times.
{vi
} = 2
{vim
} = 3
{v=vim
} = 5
I’d need to run vi at least 5 times to have a net gain in saving keystrokes. I’m typically in effemerial systems created by the users of our env, so rarely am I going to gain those strokes back
But also, why am I trying to apply logic to this? I’ll often cat a file before editing it. This shit is just illogical idiosyncrasies I’ve picked up over the years. I’m probably creating posthoc justifications for insane things I do cause it’s hard to override muscle memory
I’ll have to check tomarrow if RHEL and UBI do this.
Did some quick googling and looks like cent has that alias by default but doesn’t do it when root. Which would explain why I do get inconsistent results with vi. I never thought about it in detail besides just knowing that there are some visual changes. Thanks for the info, I’ll be noticing this now that I know!
I know the rest of the comments here are all really negative but I want to bring some positivity.
I’m so happy for him that he’s lost all that weight. That’s an incredible achievement.
Also, it’s one of the craziest swerves of all time on YouTube. Dude was one of the biggest lolcows on the internet. I’m sure several drama YouTubers had to trash videos. Like, even just a week ago he released a video where everyone was like, “he’s gonna die any day”. And he was just losing weight this whole time and he had that much of a backlog of videos. That’s unhinged but in the best possible way. I’m just happy and impressed for him.
