Be that as it may, the time to choose Rust was at the beginning. It existed then, but they made their technology choice. Continuing to develop in C++ while doing the migration just means more throwaway code and duplicated effort. This decision is truly the worst of both worlds.

“Let’s stop halfway through our multi-year project to rewrite it in another language” is peak nerd shiny distraction. I say this as one who resists the urge every day. Way to delay your project by several more years, clown.

How do you wake up a 7AM? Do you have to whisper into its ear “eight nine” and it gets hungry and jumps out of bed?

I could never have the opposite politics of my spouse. Sure, we may disagree slightly on some matters an nuance, but a world view in direct conflict with mine would be irreconcilable.

Privacy is too woke

Oh trust me I know. They make big promises, and sell these devices dirt cheap to state education systems, and frame it as an altruistic, benevolent act. Meanwhile you can’t install any other software on them and it’s entirely locked into using google’s “education” software

Lots of school districts are beginning to ban phones. The one I live in has, and it’s had great results.

Each textbook can have modules and problem generators, designed to make it easy for teachers to assemble a custom curriculum for their class, to assign problems, and to quickly have generic quizzes graded.

Having worked for three separate companies trying to do just that, it’s not that the technology doesn’t exist. It’s that it’s too expensive for individuals to purchase and school districts had a hard time getting contracts approved due to NCLB and constant budget cuts. Strange though that a company like Google could ink a huge deal with an entire state even though none of the shit did anything it promised.

God bless the Bloodhound Gang

Life of any kind on other worlds would upend lots of religious doctrine which insists that this place is special and that life was specifically put here for us.

But then again that assumes that these religions are logically consistent, so it probably wouldn’t matter.

Having not used one of these (and being extremely leery of putting one on my network), does using a pi-hole with a custom blocklist for these things help? I’ve considered getting one and isolating it in its own subnet, but I only know enough to be dangerous.

For the record, I do all those things. But I just hate all the bullshit surrounding it. If they didn’t pay me, I wouldn’t show up.

Be that as it may, it’s still required to have a home and food. I don’t like it any more than you do. Money isn’t the key to happiness, but the lack of money sure causes unhappiness.

And then what? The Department of “””justice””” is part of them.

Stop it, you know what I mean. I’m talking European colonials which formed the basis for the modern US, even if it shouldn’t be that way. They stole Native American food too. The combination of these things formed the basis of “American” cuisine, but it wasn’t long ago in a historical sense.

That’s not normal, and they should be ashamed. The normal hot sauce is more like a chili crisp.
