There’s a lot of racing left to do, but it would be cool to see something that hasn’t happened in over 40 years.

2/2

[Dennis Palmer @CoderDennis]

If @LandoNorris wins the #f1 driver’s championship this year he would be the sixth driver to have his first F1 win in the same season as his first F1 championship.
Others:
Keke Rosberg 1982
Denny Hulme 1967
Graham Hill 1962
Jack Brabham 1959
Giuseppe Farina 1950

@deAdder I’m not saying there are rules. I was genuinely curious about why someone would use both. I just hadn’t seen that before. Maybe it’s common and just outside my experience. Which one is performing better so far?

[Dennis Palmer @CoderDennis]

@deAdder I’m curious. Why do you use both Substack and Patreon? I always thought someone would pick one or the other.

Who had Oliver Bearman down for a top 15 finish in the drivers championship in 2024?

What are the chances he gets a full time race seat with Haas next year and then doesn’t score as many points in 2025 as he did in one race in 2024?

@adolfont And being stronger means that I am more physically active throughout the week.

[Dennis Palmer @CoderDennis]

@adolfont Yep. It even works a little less than once a week, so if I miss a day then I can just go the next day. Monday mornings are best because then I’m mostly recovered by the weekend. I’m pretty sore for a few days after working out.

[Dennis Palmer @CoderDennis]

@adolfont Yes. The book covers that very early. Here’s a paraphrase from page 21: during recovery from high-intensity exercise you get an increased stimulation of the aerobic system equal to or greater than you get from conventional steady-state aerobic exercise.

@codepo8 I had a sudo command for PowerShell over 15 years ago. 🤣

It worked great.

Shrinking is the real magic of property-based testing — producing a small, human-readable test case whenever a larger random case causes a test to fail. However, it can be hard to do correctly.
@CoderDennis in his talk will explore the Decorum library, an @elixirlang property-based testing library with shrinking that just works.

This is an absolutely must-watch interview with Syrian-born Palestinian social activist Manar Al-Sharif.

She went to Gaza to try to help the civilians there get necessities and education to better themselves and had her eyes opened to the brutal and impoverished reality of Hamas in Gaza for the Palestinian people

I watched almost all of it before I went to bed. I I’m now on the part where Hamas threw her in prison for refusing to stop speaking up about Hamas’ mistreatment and theft of aid from the Gazan civilians they have left impoverished by stealing billions meant to better the lives of Palestinian families.

Not a short interview but worth listening to in a way a few interviews are. Amazing stuff. Palestinian woman telling it like it is, and damn, it’s ugly.

This shows why @IDF is doing a huge service to the poor Palestinian people brutalized and murdered and left with nothing by Hamas.

An amazing part of this is where she mentions that the people told her life was better when the Israelis actually “occupied” Gaza.

The people had work and pretty good lives and didn’t encounter the horrible brutality of Hamas. Those who remember these days really resent Hamas, she explains.

Wow.

Twitter has been completely ruined several times. I’m sure we’ll survive this one just as we have all the others.

Bad code can be written in any language. Some people see a pit of success and build a bridge.

[Dennis Palmer @CoderDennis]

If you need to write confusing, hard to read and maintain code in order to optimize performance, you might be using the wrong tech stack.

Sorry but if you tell me you don’t get musicals because “people don’t break out into song in real life” then you’re hanging out with the wrong people

[Rev. Benjamin Cremer @Brcremer]

When we Christians reduce our entire theological and political vision for the world to a demand that others must conform to our personal convictions, that is the moment we know we have stopped worshiping Jesus and have begun worshiping ourselves.
