prime_number_314159

We used to have good, strong open source tools made out of C (which is a lot like steel - it can only be worked by blue collar computer nerds with muscly brains). Now that steel core is corroding because of the influence of hackers and other white collar computer sorts with their creative problem solving, and unintended uses of memory.

That new corrosion is called rust, and it eventually appears on every C project that's left outside, unless someone comes along to brush it off occasionally.

Pretty sure stones have to weigh 14 pounds...

You're right, I want thinking of the manager thermals as counting as another person for the purposes of "alone with", but provided they can move back and forth simultaneously with their employee (or they're always counted as part of the new team) then the puzzle is possible.

You may be a paid agent, but not for long. I'm reporting screenshots of this straight to DOGE.

It's not, the way it's written, the asshole cannot coexist with either the bore or the idiot, which is pretty accurate.

That's my favorite kind of conservation.

My situation might be unique there (and I realize describing this that calling them "my meetings" might be deceptively inaccurate). I support tools used by multiple teams, so when they're upgrading or planning, I should be there, but the rest of the time I have nothing to add to their efforts. The result is I'm invited to roughly 20 hours of meetings per week, and attend closer to 8.

I'm super unproductive when I work remote. I don't attend all my meetings, I average about 0.4 MRs per day, and probably only 10 lines of code. I make lazy post-development tickets just to check the box. I sometimes take hours to respond to messages, and I frequently end my day at only 5-7 hours worked.

Mysteriously, none of those things is a good way to measure productivity for software development, and mandating that everyone look like they're working hard does not ensure optimal creative problem solving.

According to my brief googling, there are 131.43 million households in America, and either 79 or 80 million American households own dishwashers. I could not find a breakdown by state, but I suspect they're predominantly popular in wealthier areas, and less popular in poorer areas.

I felt it was not immediately obvious that 314159 is a prime number, and wanted to remind people. It's also a twin prime, but as the good twin... I try not to bring up 314161, unless there's a compelling reason.

They only came out 10 years ago. If we optimize now, how will we integrate an AI chat agent feature next year?
