IT’S THE FEDS!
  • There are "kinder eggs" here now, but they are in no way the kinder eggs that they have in Europe. They're the same brand, but with a ton more plastic packaging so that we don't get all confused about what's chocolate and what's not.

  • Happy Mother's Day!
  • I didn't have a great mom. This is the first mother's day where my first instinct was to look around and see all the great moms in my life instead of just hating that my mom has a holiday. Like the one waking up next to me (who is not my kids' bio-mom but is nevertheless a great mom), my grown daughter who has fur babies, and the various moms involved in our kids' schools. There are lots of great moms out there.

  • Age Distribution of Hospital Visits Due to Punching Walls
  • Don't worry y'all, I'm an expert at interpreting chart data. What this tells us is that although you lose your childhood resilience over time, your wall-punching resilience increases from your teenage years through the rest of your life. By 70, you're guaranteed to be indestructible when it comes to wall punching.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • This reminds me of the time that I learned that the correct answer to "what's up?" is "what's up?" At least in the context of that one coworker who would say that to me as we were walking past each other.

    I've since learned to recognize these things as a "bid for connection". It generally has little to do with the content of the question or the answer and everything to do with relating.

    So basically there is no wrong answer. And there are lots of good examples in this thread!

    Personally I tend to answer "not much" as a knee-jerk reaction, but sometimes I'll remember to say something else after that.

  • muskrat's data eng expert's hard drive overheats while processing 60k rows
  • I think you're still giving them too much credit with the for loop and regex and everything. I'm thinking they exported something to Excel, got 60k rows, then tried to add a lookup formula to them. Since you know, they don't use SQL. I've done ridiculous things like that in Excel, and it can get so busy that it slows down your whole computer, which I can imagine someone could interpret as their "hard drive overheating".

  • Self Help
  • I get the joke, and certainly not all self-help books are good, but also people are unique and at different places in their lives. With just a little introspection one can probably tell which book would be better for them. Maybe they say yes too much and would benefit from learning how and when to say no; or they say no to everything and would benefit from learning to embrace new experiences.

    Or, you know, pick one up and thumb through a few pages.

  • "In a first, cryptographic keys protecting SSH connections stolen in new attack"

    An error as small as a single flipped memory bit is all it takes to expose a private key.

    In a first, cryptographic keys protecting SSH connections stolen in new attack

    I read most of this article trying to determine if I was impacted, so to save you the trouble:

    > The researchers traced the keys they compromised to devices that used custom, closed-source SSH implementations that didn’t implement the countermeasures found in OpenSSH and other widely used open source code libraries.
