Isn’t it common for enterprise level paid services to have credits (or refunds) backing published SLAs?

Merry Christmas and a Happy 1985.

The real pros don’t even link or connect them. You have to know the others exist.

There was something like

# sleep for about a second on modern processors
math.factorial(10000)

After it was found we left it in the code but commented out along with a sleep(1) for posterity.

At least at my Costco we never had sauerkraut. We had the onion dispenser thing before COVID. Now if you ask, they give you onions.

Probably a line about how they’re not liable if you record in a place where recording isn’t allowed.

I’d venture some Linux folks refuse to upgrade because of fears of compatibility issues.

The nice thing is having the choice.

Special shout out to the person who committed a gigabyte memory dump a few years ago. Even with a shallow clone, it’s pretty darn slow now.

We can’t rewrite history to remove it since other things rely on the commit IDs not changing.

Oh well.

My cat.

How do I insert myself in this triangle?

In a similar vein if you apply to a job, do you prefer being ghosted or a rejection email?
