It’s long running, so you want a database so you can store your state. If you’re storing state, locking it into a state machine makes sense.

I do agree with some of the commenters that making it closer to an event source design would make more sense still.

Parth Ferengi’s Heart Place

It’s can’t be anything else, surely! I kinda want that ep to have a character that can’t act.

The stupid thing is, all the author had to do was write “kind of tells you who invented ASCII” and he’d have been 100% right in his logic and history.

Darmok and Jalad on the ocean.

I’d add that Picard now also has spoilers for DS9.

It allows me to connect into the house via the VPS without opening ports or knowing my home address.

Nowadays there are various companies offering tunnelling services, but my setup has been working for a long time and I see no reason to change.

I’ve been running OSMC (Kodi on Debian) plus a few useful things like maintaining a reverse SSH connection to a VPS.

What makes you say it was a car accident?

oops - fixed, cheers

Huh, I thought that bit sounded interesting but each to their own. I like card games in real life, but not having to deal with bothering to shuffle all the time is nice.

Uncharted

That’s still a series I’ve yet to start but I’m sure I’ll love them.

Root beer drinker, tailor, soldier, spy.

The line breaks haven’t worked, here’s it formatted correctly:

Explanation: it’s mostly due to how js does type conversion.

For the Ls, it’s:

• [] is an empty array
• ![] is treated as false
• combining a boolean with the empty array returns “false” as a string (so true + [] = “true”, false + [] = “false”)
• ! + [] is treated as true
• ! + [] + ! + [] is treated as 2 since true + true = 1 + 1 = 2
• so you have “false”[2], which is l

for the o it’s:

• [] is an empty array
• [] + {} returns “[object Object]” as a string ({} + [] returns 0)
• ![] is false
• !![] is true
• +!![] casts it to an integer
• so that part is “[object Object]”[1], which returns “o”-

As others have answered your main question, I’ll just point out that on Firefox you can search through your open tabs by adding % before your search. I imagine the other browsers have a similar feature.

And no upvotes, because it’s obviously a stupid, unworkable idea.

What are your new predictions, oh time wizard?

These are all brilliant

I think I’m gonna like it here

I upvoted this, but actually I hardly ever see this style of commenting. Maybe it’s because I never got very far into corporate coding.

I’m really confused by this - is this a bot reposting replies that don’t work because the context has changed or is this some super-meta content that I’m whooshing on.
