Yes but the html it generated was a monstrosity. If you wanted to edit it again, you better use dreamweaver.

I was not expecting a King Missile reference in 2026. Thank you.

I think there’s a fine line between collaboration and committee (members of a band can collaborate to make good music). But capitalism definitely works against art.

You seem to be arguing for choosing a major with some job prospect, but Ford seems to be arguing for not taking any courses that aren’t directly beneficial to some economic purpose.

I disagree with Ford’s stance at least. As an old tech person, my non-tech uni courses were most beneficial to my overall capabilities in my tech job, at least in the long run. Creative writing, ethics, history, and tort law were things I took because they were interesting (to me at least). None of these had much relevance to tech as far as I could see, but I’ve been much better off for them.

“Everything excellent is as difficult as it is rare.”

Baruch Spinoza, Ethics (1677)

They might be referring to the Warner Brothers disc rot issue announced earlier this year (affecting some mid 2000s dvds). Ideally, things are made well and last a long time when stored properly.

It’s even worse if they’re using “criminal record” the same way the FBI has historically (arrested but not necessarily convicted on a felony charge).

I don’t have up to date numbers, but c.2016 the FBI considered ~29% of Americans to have a criminal record.

Of course they should. Where else would I get my snilk from?

A grand jury is a sort of sanity check on a charge, and does not count towards the trial. It is basically “with these facts (provided only by the prosecution), is there enough probable cause to move a case to trial?”. Double jeopardy in the 5th amendment has specific protections from going to trial multiple times or from getting multiple punishments for a crime.

It is a ton of fun! A word of warning though: there are funky game mechanics stemming from its origin as a board game from the 80s.

I don’t hate sales as a concept. I just dislike the sociopaths who tend to work there.

Looks like it does, at least in “private spaces”

(I’m assuming that CA means California and not Canada)

Illinois requires two party consent for recording in-person conversations at least.

Hell, R was being used in colleges in 2000. Unfortunately, whether it was SPSS for the soft sciences or forcing stats work in Matlab for the engineers, professors always seemed bad at promoting the right tool for the job.

Welcome to the secret robot Internet

And water

I substituted the flour with applesauce and this tastes terrible. 1/5 stars.

We’re all secretly longing for the macbook wheel that was leaked over 15 years ago:

Fred Rogers (of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood). For my generation, he helped to shape our views on kindness and compassion for humankind. He fought for public access funding in the United States. He helped break color barriers on television. He helped us enjoy jazz.

I have not encountered another media personality who was so genuinely invested in making sure that kids had the tools they needed to deal with the emotional parts of existence. I’m tearing up again thinking about how much he did for us.
