One of the worst Trump-isms that will out-live him is how normalized name-calling has become, even in US agency press briefings. Just childish and shameful.
Well, what's nice is that no matter the words Trump can call something or someone, the words that can be accurately used to describe him are far worse. Words like pedophile, (convicted) rapist, (convicted) fraudster, criminal, puppet, the list goes on.
It's how I learned lower level programming. TempleOS is a lot of fun but the community around it is very 4chan/kiwifarms. I never jived with that.
During the pandemic I was showing my buddies the game I'd made in TempleOS on Discord, and after a bit the conversation moved on and I was just playing idly, and my character died. The screen went black and error text showed up. My buddy interrupted the conversation with "wait, does the game just segfault when you die!?".
"Of course not. The game didn't segfault, the operating system did." The bug lasted for months and would just kill the entire OS every time you died. It was a lot of fun.
Yep, Tile I believe is the only third party service that exists. All other trackers either plug into "Apple Find My" or "Android Find My Device" network. There's finally starting to be a few devices that can do both, but they're rare, so make sure you get the right one when buying. But they take 10s to setup and it's very smooth.
In middle school (I think) we spent a few days in math class hand-calculating trigonometry values (cosine, sin, etc.). Only after we did that did our teacher tell us that the mandated calculators that we all have used for the last few months have a magic button that will "solve" for the values for you. It definitely made me appreciate the calculator more!
They also have an excellent book, covering both the subject matter (knives and sharpening) and how the company came to be.
Somewhat similar to the book of the Blue Bottle founder on coffee and his company path. Both are basically, as the GP remarked, are glimpses into other people's passion and deep fascination with a certain subject. Fantastic reads IMO.
* In fact, let me add two more books - Ivan Ramen and Tartine Bread. Similar introductions into lives of people and their obsessions with a specific subject.
We also try to roll a Retry-Limit (max number of retries) header to prevent our clients from hurting our services too much if there are ongoing issues.
I would say that omitting the crucial detail about the unlimited slow speed access is pretty misleading. It's a difference between needing to set up a fallback channel, and not, which halves the complexity.
I think this is one of the cases where strictly applying the guideline fails the reader, but yeah, I can see that this guideline make sense most of the (other) cases.
