I haven’t done web work for well over a decade and recently was surprised to learn that Wordpress is still very relevant. I remember back then, seeking alternatives as we expected it to become more of a legacy thing a few years down the track, so we were on the lookout for future-proofing client sites with a better foundation. At that point it was a decade old and annoying af because it morphed into a messy way of doing websites because people misused it’s original purpose. Brain had to think like a blog and then trick it into doing what you want, kind of like using tables to structure pages before CSS-P saved the day.

Yup, that’s standard. If you’re about three responses in, give up, it’s already lost and incapable of focusing on the requirements. It will also lie to please. There is zero admission of confidence score. You only pick up on the things you know are wrong and considering how often that is, the rest can only be taken with a grain of salt.

When I arrived again in Australia, floods happened again—hm, maybe I’m the problem—anyway! Insurance companies were trying to get out of payments by saying flood damage was covered as a result of flooding from rain. And yes, rain obviously caused the flooding, but the rain occured up on mountains which then flowed down and flooded areas below.

The government regulators got onto it straight away.

The final attempt argument was something like “The insurances cover water coming from above, not below.”

Regulators didn’t have a bar of it. Insurance companies had to do—get this—insurance.

Everyone was happy except for insurance companies and the people that lost their homes and got financially held up for over a year as the insurance companies tried to find any leftover money for payouts because the rest was in funds. Of course.

It’s like Alphabet hate guaranteed money.

“How can we boost the next six months of investment for sake of stable income over the next decade?”

“More ads. Studies show everyone with internet access fucking loves them.”

*Brilliant! Welcome to entry level lower senior-ish management, Jenkins."

“YESSSSS! I can’t wait to tell the family about this when I’m on leave from this wonderfully accommodating work campus. All hail, G.”

“All hail, G.”

Aw man, I bet it turns out all along I’m just training AI. Why not? What a valuable asset I am. I bet I’ll end up paying for myself later

The part showing the angle is not part of it. They should’ve made it a dotted line or something.

Though, two of the 90° angles are.actually 270.

I was born in the dark ages. Before 2014, we used to think the world was flat and didn’t think about climate change.

“Don’t forget to like and subscribe and hype and hit that bell and leave a comment down below–inhale—it really helps this channel out.”

Yep. Look up HRV instead of heart rate.

Internet? You mean the WiFi /s

All the while it gets further and further from the requirements. So you open five more conversations, give them the same prompt, and try pick which one is least wrong.

All the while realising you did this to save time but at this point coding from scratch would have been faster.

I mean, it appears to have a respectable amount of engine bay… Maybe a supercharged 6 or LS could squeeze in there and it’d be fine. Still thirsty, but fine.

If I recall correctly, that man is exactly the kind of person they appear to be.

A city I used to live in had a bridge like this in a major inner-city commercial area just outside the CBD. Would cause havoc for commuters because the bridge was for the southern train lines entering the CBD and was on a busy road entering an major arterial.

All the traffic got held up and diverted, the trains couldn’t run until engineers inspected the bridge.

You wouldn’t. It will be quite gutless, even if re-geared, and the steering incredibly washy. Slight uphill will be your nemesis.

Mr Mime.

My school had one on dirt. The panels were wood and had a hole in it. Finally, one day, we were playing and a kid’s foot went down there and got fucked up. He was like a rockstar coming into school next day with stitches and crutches.

SmartTube is so good. You get it for no ads; you keep it for all the dope features. It’s like YT way back in the day with more advanced shit for anyone that loves tinkering with all the fiddly bits.

I don’t think you understand that, like always with the same old small minority of vegans that go out there being cruel to people, these posts are reactive to recent poor behaviour. For this reason, it’s unusual for anyone to empathise with these types of people, regardless of ideology, unless you are in defence of their antagonising of others; which is fine, just don’t be surprised by the ongoing discourse not being in favour of that position.

When I was 15, my girlfriend’s mother was appalled that I had no idea who Motley Crue was, but I knew all the other bands she mentioned.

I look back now and imagine it’s like meeting a teenager who knows Green Day and Oasis, but has never heard of Blink 182.
