Wait... I know 127.0.0.1 but what's the second one?

Depends on the field you're in. At my previous company to release a new system for internal use only I had to go through 19 validations(each one 50-100 pages of manual tests). None of it had real source control except uploading final zip of files(no source code, just the enable files).

I wrote all the files, wrote all the test cases, wrote all the documentation, executed everything and wrote most of the reports. They just fired me last week so hope they have fun when they need to update something....

Because what kicked off the leader making everyone kill themselves was a congressmen going there with the national guard requesting access...

Exactly what the other commenter suggested they do to the camp in Florida...

Two things... 1. Your English is very good but it's ineligible meaning not allowed, intelligible means smart to do. Yes English makes no sense. 2. Does it give any signs it needs to go? Like I know my dog will be right next to me when he needs to go out. I don't mean in the room but like pressing against my body or legs, won't be 1 foot away. I had another dog who would sit by the door when he wanted to go out.

Republican leading inquiry into Biden’s autopen use has digitally signed letters in c/nottheonion@lemmy.world

You know every time I've had any medical work done I've digitally signed my consent for them to treat me and to bill me...

Can we also wipe out all medical debt and then sue the hospitals for treating without consent?

They probably would have except it was the week between Christmas and new years so he didn't know who he could contact. In fact when everyone came to the office and heard he was offered a few extra days and he basically responded with... "for what? It's already done"

I moved halfway across the country(NJ to TX) 10 years ago, my move went ok but another co-worker was supposed to move about 3 months later. As he was packing the truck he heard on the news there were tornados near the new place and figured let me just check..

He called up his new apartment complex to confirm everything was OK... "we'll call you back" an hour later he got a phone call "sorry your apartment no longer exists"

He had 5 days to finish packing, drive 29 hours, find a new apartment, do all the paperwork, unpack, return the moving truck, and come to work at 6am the 6th day. I don't know how he did it but he did.

No matter how bad it is, it could always be worse.

I'm all for this but what is that hashtag to mean? Is it Spanish and I just don't recognize it? I don't see anything... I support the cause but don't understand the meaning of the tag....

How can I host a small api/database accessable from a phone app as cheap/easily as possible? (programming.dev)
 

So background, my kid has seizures often. He is currently on 5 different medications to try to control it(plus 1 for sleeping and 1 for his liver enzymes) plus severe non verbal autism so he can't tell us if he already had his meds. Currently when it's medication time, it's always "did you give him his meds yet?" and we have no way of tracking how many seizures he actually has besides "alot more recently" or "it's gone down recently". Yes he had multiple doctors and this is NOT a post looking for health advice.

I am creating an app for phones(c# Maui) which will send json objects to a api to store/retrieve data in a database(when he last had medication x, when he has a seizure etc). It will probably only be used with in my family, maybe 20 entries a day on a really bad day(7 medications twice daily + 6 seizures to give a round number) but should be less then 10 transactions(most medications given at same time).

What's the cheapest/easiest was I can host something like this? I do not have a static ip. Yes it's health information but I'm only storing first names and tracking time of events, not too worried about hippa like security.

People complain that it's poor design that humans eat and breath through the same pipe(throat). Are there any animals which don't though? (programming.dev)
 

The only possible exceptions I can think of are fish(I imagine gills and mouth are not connected but don't really know). I am excluding bacteria and viruses and I believe they don't really breath(correct me if I'm wrong).

Is there a programming specific distro? (programming.dev)
 

I know there choice of distro is really meaningless as you can install almost any program on almost any distro. But I have been playing with kali which is for security people and pen testers. Is there a similar distro for programmers? Like a few ides installed some profiling tools some virtual environment tools etc?

Weird bug/feature on pixel 6 I just discovered (programming.dev)
 

I don't know why this is a thing but if I tap the back of my pixel 6 three times in rapid succession it begins to play my audio book on audible.

From what I can tell audible has to be open but doesn't need to be the app on the screen(for example I can start and stop it while typing this post). Also the phone has to be "on" (meaning the screen is displaying but doesn't need to be unlocked.

Is this just my phone or dies it happen on other people's phone too?
