@ElijahSchaffer This isn't "white people culture" (see e.g. Surya Bonaly). If this is anyone's culture, it's "rich people's". You have no idea how much money it takes to get from "young kid who likes skating" to this level.
Socioeconomic, not racial.
@KellyScaletta That adjective (or verb, for that matter) can be attached to only two categories of nouns: anything related to ignition timing, and anything related to controlling the rate at which dough rises. Any other usage gets a "Hell No" response.
@engineering But they can screenshot and then repost those screenshots with their hateful/hurtful/stalkerish comments.
Your Safety team needs to up their game, or you need to pay better attention to them, or your CEO needs to stop muddying the engineering waters.
@anne_theriault Best part of staying in Belgium: you're a short train ride away from France and The Netherlands.
(But the street vendor vlaams frites are a string second place.)
In 2017, I paid Cards Against Humanity to protect a pristine plot of border land from Trump’s racist wall. But then an even richer, more racist billionaire—Elon Musk—stole my land and dumped his shit all over it. @ElonMusk owes me $100. #ElonOwesMe100Bucks https://t.co/J6tczuOTr4
@Conscience4@sahilkapur Who knows? That's one way of adding verbs and nouns to his word salad to get meaningful sentences. There are other valid ways to add words he didn't utter to turn his word salad into meaningful sentences.
We shouldn't have to put words in his mouth to get something coherent.
@ZeinerDaine@do_whats_rite@RBReich They won't do that, especially with the high cost of capital. Instead, they'll raise their prices until demand drops to match capacity. Profits go up, no add'l capital or people expenses. CEO is a hero, stick lettuce goes up, everyone wins except the consumer.
@ZeinerDaine@do_whats_rite@RBReich The two domestic competitors will do exactly the same thing, as it's the smart thing to do for the business and shareholders.
That's how the real world actually works.
@shanselman "Okay, that's. We're done. Break's over, back on your heads."
I have to tell the underlying joke to new attendees, but it contages pretty quickly.
@DevOps_Kitties@climagic Sigh.
f The tar archive is a File, not on stdin/stdout.
Unix commands were designed as does-one-thing tools to be connected with pipes. Over time more functionality got added to reflect usage; the "z" flag is an example.
tar xzvf myfile.tgz
gunzip < myfile.tgz | tar xv
@ZeinerDaine@do_whats_rite@RBReich Nah, it just raises a pricing umbrella over domestic manufacturers who can raise their prices by the same percentage. Pure profit.
@do_whats_rite@PR52BTFLCommish@LoriLoo768@RBReich The world today is wildly different than it was in Washington's day. Global transportation is cheap and safe, the actual goods needed are very different, entire industries have vanished from us soil...
The world is as it is today, not as it was 250 years ago.
@gokpkd Any painter that can afford to eat the cost of employees and materials for 30 days while you get around to sending a check also bid the job 20% higher. Money ain't free.
Tech bros know how this works, they just think it doesn't apply to *them* for some techbro-ish reason.
