Gene Parmesan on Arrested Development

How is this different from Factorio?

You eat pieces of shit for breakfast, you piece of shit?

Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way

I manage a stack like this, we have dedicated hardware running a steady state of backend processing, but scale into AWS if there’s a surge in realtime processing needed and we don’t have the hardware. We also had an outage in our on prem datacenter once which was expensive for us (I assume an insurance claim was made), but scaling to AWS was almost automatic, and the impact was minimal for a full datacenter outage.

If we wanted to optimize even more, I’m sure we could scale into Azure depending on server costs when spot pricing is higher in AWS. The moral of the story is to not get too locked into any one provider and utilize some of the abstraction layers so that AWS, Azure, etc are just targets that you can shop around for by default, without having to scramble.

This is great and all, but what I really need is an alternative picture of shel silverstein to put on the back of the book.

Could it be you’re allergic to your laundry detergent or something introduced when washing it?

“I wouldn’t go up there. It’s really narrow.”

It has its downsides as well

Leaving a bar to catch a train and I did this when closing my tab. Ended up in a conversation and missing my train.

Not saying it’s not an internet meme, but NBC News seems to have ran the quote yesterday, and hasn’t updated the article with a correction:

he Biden campaign slammed the former president in a statement about the expected gun license revocation.

“When Trump tells the NRA he won’t do a damn thing to prevent convicted felons, domestic abusers, and other dangerous people from getting their hands on guns, he’s talking about himself,” said campaign spokesperson James Singer in a statement.

I checked James Singer’s twitter and couldn’t find a written statement, nor a rebuttal to NBC News article, so maybe this was a spoken quote off the cuff?

My powers have doubled since the last time we met, Count

And the CIS was led by the treacherous Count Dooku

Ha ha!

I hope for future generations, they have to learn about the Simpsons in English class like we had to learn about Shakespeare.

They bought a company named Keyhole in the early 2000s

I’m surprised he didn’t replace one of the kids in the lightsaber training class with yoda with a young CGI Ahsoka.

I just rewatched the scene, and yeah, they do mention she’s a youngling. And then in this scene from one of the later episodes, she’s very young. So yeah between when she joins the Jedi Order and becomes a padawan, there’s lots of time she could have been in the training rooms in the Jedi Temple during the events of AtoC.

I might be misremembering the Clone Wars movie, but didn’t she only appear and become Anakin’s Padawan after the event of AotC?

But setting no alarms would maximize time in bed.

It’s a device to make phone calls, but that’s not important right now.
