We need another bell lab

TIL, thanks jupiter!

Of course duh, I shoulda looked at the picture

Does jupiter stop asteroids for us?

Great explanation! The anology of the pool was helpful!

Most bots out there aren’t backed by chat gpt. We had a flood of Russian boys using a sign up for on a site to send spam emails by putting the spam in the names and address fields. Slapping the most basic of captchas on the page solved it.

I just created a new tool for my company, and I opted to leave out jQuery as I wanted to see how it would be without it.

After going through the process I don’t think I’ll use jQuery again unless it is already a dependancy. Vanilla pretty much has everything covered that jQuery made easier, just need to be a bit more verbose in some cases, but I’ve found that typically makes the code easier to read and modify.

No hate if jQuery is your thing though, just if you’re on the fence I’d give vanilla a go and see if it fits your needs!

One day I’ll learn flex and be able to make nice responsive displays, but until then Bootstrap it is.

Stories like these are why I love the internet. Just a wholesome little memory, made me smile thanks for sharing :)

I’m no strategist but what’s to stop Putin from agreeing, taking some time to regroup, and then just doing it again? Ukraine would be out whatever was agreed to but still in the same position.

Tried them, thing were better for a short bit but now worse, can I have a refund?

How much for just the cuddling? That’s what I’m really missing, I can do the handy myself.

Thanks for your response, I’ve been keeping my eye out for a reasonably priced C64 or something so I can get into it on some real hardware (I’m sure there are emulators out there but that’s not as fun).

I feel like learning it would help with understanding some of what happens “under the hood” in modern languages.

Do you actually know basic? Just wondering how someone goes about learning it and using it these days.

That’s the neat part, all of them!

Alright what games should I be getting this time?

Hey, thanks for taking the time to double check and come back even though you realized you got it wrong. Lots of people wouldn’t have done that so props :)

There are a couple benefits to a credit card as long as you are paying them off and not using them when you don’t actually have the money to pay them off.

• It can improve your credit score which is important if you ever plan on buying a house, so you can get a loan.

-There usually aren’t any fees for using the card like most debit cards have (at least where I live).

• many credit cards offer a reward system which you can use to get free stuff, or sometimes just cash back. I have a dividends and get a percentage back on every purchase up to a maximum.

So as long as you pay them off monthly, using a CC instead of debit can actually save you money and be a good thing. It’s when you can’t pay them off, and instead just meet the minimum payments that they become a problem since they have crazy interest rates.
