…damn autocorrupt

For context, when I looked, there were less than 5 votes. So “more people” is really just “a couple of dogs”.

(Oh, wait, on the Internet, no one is supposed to know you’re a dog)

How about

See the cat. Didn’t you look at the comic?

Oh, I think it checks out. Maybe it should be “fly to space” or “fly rocket ships”, but the point of the job is the trip. Unless – hmm. Did explorers of yesteryear have BS jobs, too?

Yeah, it’s fairly clever but not actually magical. Sometimes you have to go in and take a look.

Actually, the real magic is that it works out mostly ok most of the time. Much better than older systems where you would have to “check out” a file to work on it which would lock others out. I’ve heard older programmers talk about needing to go find someone who had a file checked out and have them check it back in to enable them to do some work.

Roughly equal parts “git is clever” and “once in a while, someone has to take some time to figure it out”.

Say the code is split into two files. You and I both make changes, but you’re working on file A and I’m in file B. No problem!

Now we both make changes in file A. Sometimes Git can just “figure it out”, like if all your changes are in the beginning of the file, and all my changes are at the end.

But sometimes we both change the same section. Git can’t figure that part out, so one of us has to sit down and reconcile the changes. Sometimes this is pretty simple, other times…not so much.

Put it all together, and it works out pretty well most of the time.

Why do I have Huntrix songs running through my head all of a sudden?

I’m not really sure, but the nearby “fancy” grocery store is about that distance. 1.2 miles (1.9km), 27 minutes walk, 10 blocks (well, technically 15. Rectangular blocks. I counted two-for-one on the short sides).

I’ve walked to that store before, but I coordinated with my wife that she would meet me at the store on her way home from work. Walking both ways is just a little outside my “don’t bother” perimeter.

Hmm, I could probably get used to it if I had to, but I don’t really have any motivation. I already have a car, and the dollar a week to drive to the store won’t break my budget.

12 blocks is more like 2km, but nice try. It’s still farther than I’d tend to walk, particularly for groceries.

Yeah, that’s gonna be too far for me, dawg.

Do YOU walk 5km to get groceries?

I have a cookbook that suggests bulgur wheat for that chewiness. The author writes that her (vegetarian) daughters thought it was a ground beef recipe at first!

I’d be surprised if that turned out to be the case, but I’ve never used EU Windows 11. Is it a special no-ads version?

Windows 10 definitely has ads - I recall seeing something pushing the Xbox on the lock screen a while back. That counts IMO.

my version of Windows doesn’t have ads on it.

Windows 7?

So cozy!

Only if they’re underwater.

More to the point, if everyone is tied up at that point, who tied them up?
