IRL perfect would not have a weapon, but if he did... it would be perfect.

An effort was made, I guess...

RIP viewers like me...

Yes, I touch-type, and use a kinesis advantage keyboard that makes touch typing "almost unavoidable" (as one blogger wrote). I also use the Dvorak layout, and get nearly 100 wpm without really trying (and using low-effort brain-to-keyboard data transfer is the way to go, imho).

IIRC, it opens a gui modal asking if you want to give the terminal permission to read the folder. Not quite the same, but still weird and jarring.

If that's half of it, then a "full human" could be defined by an 80mb file?

When you get your C++ extraction operator backwards?

Does this mean there is a canon explanation for Obi-Wan thinking Darth Vader killed Anakin?

Boomers remember when they made memorable movies, and now they fight for people to forget them.

Since when did the lone ranger have nuclear weapons?

Repeat after me: "Don't use floating-point numbers for currency values."

When history rhymes, your brain locks into the beat.

 

Yes, in part that they don't care that they are making more work for me (logging back in to every site), but moreso that they don't care how (or that) their website is broken.

If I, through ordinary use of a website, can get it into an inconsistent state, then other users probably are too. Isn't the site-specific state VALUABLE in diagnostics? Shouldn't your SREs be itching to get ahold of a bonafide failure case? Why is it the first thing that is so carelessly destroyed?

In theory, even if they are getting flooded with tickets from their broken website... what if it's not THAT known issue your site is dealing with, but a DISTINCT issue that might not be solved by the same solution. Where is the science/knowledge process here?

Yes, I ought to be able to cast it into a perspective of them trying to unblock me as fast as possible, but for some reason... hearing something so blithe tends to send a clear signal that you want me to quickly go away and stop bothering you... that they don't care in general.

 

...we all do.
