Normally the use case is

• Constructed a long command, but it didn’t work for some reason.
• I go fix the reason it didn’t work
• I do the first thing again

It’s in my recent memory, but maybe there’s been 10 or so commands of me fixing stuff in-between.

That’s why you can add “:p” to the end just to print it.

The one people see me doing that gets a “huh?” Is:

~$ !find
find -type f -name '*blah*' -print0 | xargs -0 gzip
~$

“Wait! What did you do?” “Oh. Do you not know about bang?”

…but we stole the rest of the worlds recipes.

I was thinking about F for Argentine cattle alone.

I’d miss mexican food, but some arsehole bundled it with the USA.

6 figure jobs are still common, but not at the entry level. The companies that used to offer such thing are taking that money and investing in AI, thinking that they won’t need new blood.

They’re wrong, but that’s what’s happening.

It’s a projection. No damage has been done. It just dominates your view for a few minutes.

Even if you disagree with it, it’s such a mild form of protest to take exception to. Just let people express themselves.

Pretty poor counter argument.

“Justice for the abused” Vs “Oooh! Pretty building”

The thing with chemo is that it’s pure poison.

It’s cheap to run for one person. Any service running it isn’t cheap when it has a good number of users.

I’m actually wondering if we’re headed towards a deflationary event. I don’t think the underlying customer base can support a lot of the prices now as wages have stayed well below inflation, plus I believe some of the inflation is artificial profit taking. Oil is half the price it was a few years ago, so transportation of goods should be a lot cheaper. Energy as a whole has been getting cheaper too as new renewable generation comes online, so those costs come down too.

The economists would think some deflation would be the worst thing ever, but the inflation spike of the last few years doesn’t seem to have a solid foundation.

I mean that episode specifically. It’s the low point of the entire show so far. “The Towering Inferno” in space.

Compared to what came before, it was a huge step down in writing quality. S3 didn’t really recover.

I wish I hadn’t seen it, but yes. That was what sprung into my mind too.

Sometimes in the future…

“Mummy, what kind of man was Daddy?”

“Well… His final words were ‘Counting or not counting gang violence?’”

One problem is that quite a lot of left leaning people support this. Certainly in the UK the Labour Party has been paternalistic for a long time, thinking that the public are not able to look after themselves when it comes to having liberties. On issues like this there’s little between labour and Tories, with them swapping places quite frequently.

We haven’t had a socially liberal government in 70 years at least.

Wikipedia’s case was odd. They tried to fight that the act was illegal rather than them being caught by it was wrong (good for them), but did so by arguing that the Minister was uninformed and acted irrationally, which is a non starter.

The judge said that they can still contest whether they should be caught by the act. It sounded like the judge felt they’d have a decent case.

Anything I run in C# or similar seems to allocate 512GB of virtual address space and then just populates what it actually uses.

It’s a settlement and not a ruling, so anything agreed will be a one off cost of doing business.

How about we get a fucking ruling against these companies? A settlement doesn’t create a precedent.
