Unless there’s another bus for the other 50% of the travel. The point of a public transportation system is to be just that - a system. To get from anywhere to anywhere else.

It’s insane how much write-only documentation is produced by big companies. Usually there is some kind of regulatory reason - like some documents have to be preserved for 40 years. Luckily it’s not mandatory to keep paper archives any more (if you live in a sane jurisdiction of course) .
Maybe we just met a second speaker of the infamous bird/dolphin language
Just reminded me of an argument trying to explain that arithmetic with floating point numbers is not always correct to a coworker who was a mathematician just starting in software dev.
In a mathematicians mind the fact that an arithmetic operation can produce inaccurate result is just incomprehensible
I think it’s because writers take care to make the pronunciation guessable form the spelling. English is infamous for it’s very inconsistent writing rules, however there are “rules”. More like heuristics, but usually it’s possible to write a word in such a way that others can guess the pronunciation, unless that specific word already has an accepted official spelling that is different.
Wow you’re lucky. I’ve always wanted a job like that.
And for a while I had something similar but unfortunately rotten. We had a ping pong table, afterwork parties, no overtime, lunch, even a swimming pool. And we could use all of it.
However we were seriously underpaid, I got an 80% raise just by saying hello in another company. No remote work without any reason at all (most of my team was in other countries). And awful decision making by upper management.
Made me cynical if something like it is even possible. Glad to hear it is.
Oh I feel this so much. There’s a range of jobs and environments where I do really really well. But the way most organizations are structured I can never find a place where my strengths are desirable in the long term.
And selling myself is not one of my strengths.
How many times does it need to be repeated
correlation ≠ causation
I just love that “x walks into a bar” is such a universal joke format. Even if we don’t know why it was funny.
A very human-centric perspective.
There’s the option that God is all-powerful, all-knowing, etc, but humans are completely irrelevant to his plan.
Unsurprisingly no human religion advocates for this perspective.
Stormtrooper misses wildly, the bolt bounces on a reflective surface and then hits a rope holding a piano suspended above the redshirt.
Not narcissistic
I mean it’s hard to be more narcissistic than this
I have to agree. There are proportionally fewer representations of healthy “straight” relationships. Basically identifying as straight restricts you to a narrow spectrum of toxic or abusive relationships.
Most people who actually like eachother don’t put much emphasis on identifying as straight. They just like the person they are with.
I propose a new category: non-straight hetero. You are attracted to the opposite sex, but not in a straight way.
Pornstars are legitimate entertainers that bring at least something positive to the society. Unlike Donald Trump.
You know what happens when an entire nation is exposed to luxurious lifestyles of an extremely wealthy minority?
Revolution. Revolution happens.
Chinese politicians know this fact too well, that’s why they’re trying to make rich people hide their wealth.
I mean actually fixing the problem is out of the question, that would be communism.

If there’s a developer deserving of sainthood it’s Terry Davies of TempleOS fame. But I’m not sure if he counts as Catholic.

Well, that’s the thing you could have it if you invested all the money that currently goes into highways. The amount of money is always limited (everybody hates taxes for a reason), so building large quantities of both is impossible.
Roads are always going to cost more in the end, but they’re easier to build incrementally. Boiling the frog situation.
Even if policy of your local government changes (which is at least a little up to you) you will still have to suffer the current situation and keep driving for a while before a better system is built. But that’s no reason to throw good money after the bad.
