I’d I unironically say that philosophy and logic classes are extremely helpful for programming.

Lines of separation are bad? I like adding a few empty lines to denote a different logical section so it’s easier for me to read back later :c

It’s been a week and my CEO still hasn’t responded my email asking for scope clarification for a project he asked me to do…

Just to be pedantic, iso 8601 stipulates that the delimiting character is a “-” not a “.”

Why no reverse proxy?

I’ve been really happy with it; I’ve been using it for templating reports at work for months now. I’ve just started experimenting with using jinja to pretemplate my template lol.

I’ll probably continue down that track to try and automate my workflow away so I can focus on less tedious things, but after you get used to the box encapsulation it becomes fairly easy to work with!

Can we get a Santa v Satan boxing movie?

Level 5, I still go back to play dark cloud 1 and 2 every couple years. Now if they’d just make the third one I stead of another professor Layton or yokai watch that’d be great!

Seems like a good way to get smited, naming random (probably evil) energy that came from nowhere space (but not the sun) after the head goddess of Shintoism. Maybe Susanoo or Orochi would have kept the theme while not angering a top tier god.

Wait, I can play pso2 on the deck?! I might have to download it!

The epic of Gilgamesh was written in Akkadian like 2000bc. Old English would be more like Beowulf.

You could try installing gamesnacks.com as a pwa on their phone. They have a bunch of little games that I assume children would like.

I’m currently in dependency hell trying to compile a zip formatted react native program I’ve been given

Well, I suppose you first need to consider what’s doing the work on a guillotine; as far as I can tell it’s only using gravity to drop the blade. So we’d want to reduce any friction caused by the rails, it’d be easiest to upgrade to aluminum and get some sort of ball bearings or something to keep it as low as possible. Obviously we want a sharp a blade as possible - considering our lack of sustained killings it might be best to move to a one use blade mechanism to keep it pointy since we probably don’t have to worry about durability with sustained beheadings.

Hmm, after that we should probably try to introduce more energy into the system since we’re still just using gravity. Adding more weight would probably help but wouldn’t ever make it go faster than terminal velocity. Maybe the cheapest option would be spring-loading the top of the guillotine so after the lever is pulled it shoots down. Or if you want more future-y could try to make some sort of magnet railgun to propel the blade down at increasingly fast speeds.

For the bottom it seems pretty good, though you’ll want to make sure you have the executioner line up the blade to be in-between the vertebrae (gotta try and make it as swift as possible). Then maybe add a pillow, because it doesn’t look super comfy there.

This also applies to coding! And I’m not currently dreading the fact I keep thinking of more and more convoluted solutions to my problem at work at all!
