Yup. If it isn't a friendly neighborhood jumping spider, I'm bringing a cup and a piece of paper and it's out with the spider. Not risking the life of my tiny dog.

The best part is that it's built around Postgres and has some nice onboarding tutorials.

It's so people can interact with your project without requiring an account in that particular instance.

Sam O'Nella was awesome, but his current release schedule leaves much to be desired.

I will say, about the school times, that the biggest issue is the parent schedules, not the kids.

I call bullshit on this. Most school districts have high-schoolers starting at 7:30, middle-shoolers at 8, and elementary at 8:30, or something like that.

Yet, elementary aged kids are naturally up by 6 (if the parents are lucky; often earlier), and are also the biggest contingent that gets driven (instead of bussed) to school. A working parent can drive to their kid's school and be on time for work without much issue early in the day, not so much at rush hour. And they are be up with their kids bright and early anyhow.

High-schoolers are the ones that need the most night sleep of the bunch, and with the latest sleep cycle. They are also the most independent. It's not an issue to leave a high-schooler at home and go to work while they bus/drive/bike themselves to school later.

In short, both parents and kids schedules benefit from a reversal of the timetables, but we don't do it for $REASONS.

I would say more unfortunate than amusing.

Those hoses are probably hydraulic system hoses used in cranes, forklifts, backhoes, etc. Likely chosen for the chemical compatibility and price, and the marketing Dept probably saw the pressure rating and ran with it, even though it doesn't make sense.

Ctrl+D works fine for me.

Doing exactly what an author intended with their work is very ethical indeed.

Yet, when Microsoft, Apple and every other proprietary software house do it with permissively licensed code, I don't see anybody complaining.

The declaration of intent by the author is the license. If they don't want commercial redistribution of their work, do like Futo. Otherwise we'll all start taking crazy pills and demand people adhere to an imagined restriction that isn't written anywhere.
