I’ve got no strong contenders.
“Blind coding” “Script slopping” “Junk writing” “Not knowing what you’re doing, but it’s fine because you also aren’t capable of knowing what you’re doing” “Slop slapping” (as in “I had a problem with my computer, so I slop slapped a solution on it”) “Wasting GPU cycles so you can also waste CPU cycles”
50 years ago was 1976, which was before the 1983 reforms. In 2023, I see a prediction it will run out of trust money by 2035. In 2009, they were predicting the same trust exhaustion in 2037. In 2005, Bush’s campaign warned it would run out by 2042. You’ll notice that these dates keep moving closer and closer as we get more data. There are real structural problems in social security.
With the cap, social security collected 1,159,984 + 188,399 million dollars in 2024, on the 6.2% + 6.2% tax rate. Medicare with no cap at the 1.45% + 1.45% tax rate collected 441,003 million dollars.
That implies taxable income for medicare was 14,172,517 million dollars, and for social security it was 10,874,056 million dollars. Completely removing the cap on social security would fix the current shortfall, but leave the structural issues in the program intact. Maybe it would buy us 25 more years. There are still people living today that would pay in more than they can possibly receive back from the system.
In short, you’re telling the people funding your lifestyle, “Fuck you, I got mine”, then denying that that is what’s happening.
That’s something else stealing the name. As you can see, the wikipedia page doesn’t even mention support for unitless metrics as variable types.
In case you don’t know, C is the successor to B (which used imperial variables). There was a planned successor to C called D, which would use all unitless quantities, like they do in Fermi approximations, but it turns out those aren’t very good. That’s why we have C++ (which supports metric and imperial) instead.
If it’s all if statements and if it uses well nested logic and if it’s written in a modern language and if the number of if statements doesn’t exceed 57, it could be good. Otherwise it is overly verbose. Otherwise it is dated. Otherwise it is spaghetti code. Otherwise it should go to the regular code check routine function.
At least for federal cases, bench trials have higher acquittal rates (38%) than jury trials do (14%). That’s based on data from 2018-2022, and there may be case selection bias.
Jessie’s Girl. It’s very catchy, but the lyrics are about being jealous of your friend, and the description of the girl involved is just so ridiculously minimal - she has eyes she looks with, she has a body, and she loves Jessie. That’s everything single thing said about her.
First rule of signing your own NDA is you don’t talk about signing your own NDA.
https://youtu.be/P0hfSjJksoo At 1:15, I think that’s the mess hall on the USS Tripoli. Maybe they only use table clothes when not at war, or on holidays, or something. I didn’t find what the bare tables look like. Anyways, the trays look similarly new, based on the few shots of them that are clear.
I’m also very dubious that the problems in the US military are an inability to get things to a place. Could this be a vegan that is not being offered suitable meals, or a joke of some kind?
The restaurant didn’t murder the guy, but the reviewer requested a seat in the non-murdering section, so seating him right next to it loses a star.
… And he can do it again in 2-5 hours ;)
I made paneer, following a recipe I’ve used dozens of times before. The resulting cheese was perhaps softer than usual, and even after squeezing it and dripping for hours, the slow drip of whey continued, unabated.
I dared to try a bit. The texture was just as expected, with the familiar squeak as the cheese broke apart upon chewing, and just a hint of extra liquid. The flavor was also fine. I could have added more salt, but that’s a problem I’ve run into before, and I usually cook the paneer into something, so I would just make a saltier sauce.
I decided it would be fine to leave dripping overnight, but I thought something was unusual. It was late, and dark, and I was ready to go to sleep, so I needed an answer to the lingering doubt at the back of my mind. The bowl I hang cheese over to drip is one of my largest bowls, but I dumped out the accumulated whey anyways - then I went to bed.
In the morning, my wife woke me up in a panic, and I came downstairs to discover that the bowl had filled, then overflowed with whey. I dumped the bowl once more, cleaned up the mess, and then promptly dug a pit to bury whatever this approximation of cheese was. Maybe it will stop. Maybe it will flow down into the water table, and bacteria will digest whatever is in the Great Value whey.
In either case, I have made the important decision that the outcome is not my fault. Walmart is responsible for whatever occurs, and if I need to sell this house at some point in the future, I hope Walmart will disclose the state of affairs to the buyer, because I most certainly will not.
Three stars out of five.
I get that she’s an English major, but how is that an excuse to not know that cameras typically have a flash so they can illuminate the object being photographed?
I agree, obviously. With modern soap, hair is all but useless, and we should all be bald and glossy, the way nature attempts to deny us.
If it’s not a 55 gallon drum, don’t even bother bringing it.
