If I don't overshoot my planned sleeping time by 1 hour doomscrolling, I'm usually sick.
  • I find listening to (already listened to—this part is important) stuff is like a sleeping pill. Rip YouTube videos and put just the audio on your phone. Play it at bed time—I use earbuds and throw it under my pillow.

    Right now, I’m listening to Kings & Generals and Operations Room audio. In the past, I’ve done Futurama audio.

  • Learn how to count with Bill Gates
  • The reason there isn’t a Windows 9 is because there was a common test for windows versions that went something like this:

    std::string winVer = getWinVerStr();
    if (winVer.find(“Windows 9”) != -1)
    {
        // This is windows 95 or 98
    }
    

    A good chunk of older programs would likely have issues.

  • How did we get humans on the moon in 1969 and are still struggling to get the Starship rocket to launch properly?
  • There was no need to produce the items in question, so we lost the expertise and the underlying manufacturing facilities/experience/etc. Stuff like: The company that made the windows no longer exists. The company that made the panels still exists, but they can no longer source the strictly defined % alloys as that company no longer exists. Stuff like that.

  • Our Response to Hashicorp's Cease and Desist Letter | OpenTofu
  • This is unrelated to this topic exactly, but I don’t know what OpenTofu is nor what it is for, so I looked at the FAQ.

    What is OpenTofu?

    OpenTofu is a Terraform fork, created as an initiative of Gruntwork, Spacelift, Harness, Env0, Scalr, and others, in response to HashiCorp’s switch from an open-source license to the BUSL. The initiative has many supporters, all of whom are listed here.

    This is practically a meme…I have no idea what all of these are (coming from my area of expertise).

  • What to play at after work?
  • If it’s at an Internet cafe where everyone is in attendance, I seriously strongly suggest “The Ship”. In my experience, probably the ultimate LAN game. Screen peeking allowed but not encouraged.

    The game is effectively a game of assassin—but you have to upkeep your player’s needs (food/water/shower/bathroom/sleep). Your character needing to take a shit is stressful—very often you begin the process only to have your murderer pop open the door with a fire axe.

    It used to have a “viral” gift copy thing on Steam where 1 purchased copy generated 2 gift copies and those copies generated 1 copy each. So in theory, you could only require 3 copies for 15 of you if that’s still active.
