They only care that the forms are filed. They don’t care if they are filed with correct information.

That’s how git works. Every file and subfolder under the repo’s root folder belongs to the repo.

If you are wondering why your cookies come out different every time you bake, it isn’t due to variance of temperature and humidity – IT IS BECAUSE YOU ARE USING WILDLY DIFFERENT AMOUNTS OF FLOUR.

And yes you ducking can tell the difference between a batch of cookies where the flour is weighed vs scooped.

You can’t accurately measure flour by volume. The amount you get in a scoop will vary depending on how compressed it is. You weigh flour to remove that variance, which can be far greater than 5%. Don’t believe me? Put a cup of flour in a measuring cup, then start pressing on it to pack it (you won’t have anywhere near a cup anymore). Controlling for flour density (ie: consistently measure by volume) is nearly impossible.

Brown sugar is similar but easier to manage (most recipes tell you to use packed measures instead of scooping).

Things like white sugar, sure – scoop away.

m68k assembly was my favorite back in the day.

The joke is that, regardless of how the type is declared in json, you are parsing a string. (your json blob is just a series of characters, not raw binary data)

The reply would have been return x % 2 == 0, or if you wanted it to be less readable return !(x&1).

But if you were going for a way that is subtly awful or expensive, just do a regex match on “[02468]$”. You don’t get a stack overflow with larger numbers but I struggle to think of a plausible bit of code that consumes more unnnecessary cycles than that…

Is this meant to be a joke or is it intended to be a serious solution?

Asking for someone who lacks a sense of humor.

Ok, fine, I’m asking for me. That person is me.

Agree no difference as an ingredient in some baked dish.

But if you are eating the egg by itself or as the primary item, there is definitely a difference in taste. Not a revolutionary change your life difference, but still a difference.

In my experience the difference is pretty small amongst the options in the grocery store, but fairly noticable for eggs I get from the farmers market.

Recently thawed and ate a whole chicken that had been in the freezer for 18+ months in original packaging. No issues with taste/texture.

Missed opportunity in the last panel: “that’s a right, Mario!”

Ignoring the content of the words, they probably spaced it out like that so they could still see out the rear view mirror.

For first names we separately compiled lists of names that we liked from whatever sources we could find (Internet lists, books, media l names used in media, etc). We went through each other’s lists and vetoed names that were a hard no. Then we wrote the names out on a sheet of paper in random order in a playoff bracket style arrangement. Each pair had a winner until there was only one.

For middle names, it had to be something that flowed well with the first name. It also had to be able to convey that special sense of “you done fucked up” and disappointment when said with the first name (while emphasizing the second), like “John PAUL”. Finally, candidates were from (mostly deceased) family members.

Names and initials were checked to minimize bullying potential; if we could think of a way to abuse it the name or combination was rejected. For example, Karen would be a no due to current slang usage. Or if the initials would spell ASS.

I can’t be the only one disappointed by the lack of an order by clause after being told the list was being sorted (twice!)…

If by simple you mean “can’t count from 1 to 10 in a loop” and by elegant you mean “easier to understand than a one line perl script” then sure…

That’s because it is absolutely terrible. It is the first serious/real “language” I have encountered since Cobol where indent level has functional meaning. This is not good company to be in.

Omg, I have SOOoo many questions about what is going on in this picture.

My guy wanted to use drones to cut hedges.

I’d be perfect departure time man. Able to determine exactly when to leave in order to arrive at your destination on time, regardless of traffic, weather, or other conditions encountered along the way.
