This would include any unset variables compared to when the shell spawned and include recursive traces (that is, you can follow an arbitrary chain of `set PATH /extra/bin $PATH`

Anyone else been told that shifting your view (proportionately) when new data/info appears means you aren't considered as much leadership material as someone who doesn't bother? Because I have, and I bet others have too.

lol they got so many conservatives with that "Arabic numerals" shit 😂

If I say that, like, a thrown Exception won’t be caught. Or a method will be called on a null Object. Nobody panics. Because it’s all part of the *plan* But if I say one little ol’ `Err` will be unwrapped? Well then everyone LOSES THEIR MINDS

Put it this way: the people who made sure Churchill lost his parliamentary seat in Dundee, harried him his whole campaign, weren't ladies of leisure. They were the women who made up the majority of the workforce in the vast number of mills that dominated the region's economy.

Things in the U.S. have gotten so much worse since I wrote my final chapter this summer that I have to rewrite the last third of it because by July it will read even more weirdly than it already does.

The fact that AI coding assistants can even exist at all is a damning sign that we all spend far too much time solving the same problems over and over

I feel like there should be a normalized "does this file kinda mostly look like the old one or is it /dev/null or a horse .jpg" functionality in most stdlibs. I feel like we have the technology now.

Random question for my anglo speakers: was mercantilism a concept taught to you in primary or secondary school? Also, could you give a rough explanation (off the top of your head, no looking it up) of it? (This is research for something I'm drafting, I appreciate all answers no matter what!)

barrister in Ireland claims man is hated by antifa, which would somehow put him in danger while in prison, and so gets his 2-month jail term fully suspended the absolute neck, as if antifa had anyone receptive in jail -- it's appallingly idiotic

You can't be a Satanist and be fash. Lucifer is one of the original anti-fascists.

Another day of tiresome LinkedIn ambulance-chasing.

The config of the species is more deadly than the code.

Any Central Committee, and all it's members, should receive no privacy with respect to their communications with each other or any members of the larger party. It is the only way to ensure the informed consent of *all* party members. Anything less is just sparkling authoritarianism.

life-impactful processing of people's data this shite is so scary and thoughtless

This is what you're supposed to do with Nazi South Africans that come to your country. The US should take note

I'll agree to certain countries taking the fecking jewelry from asylum seekers the second those countries pay, with interest, reparations to there former colonies, including paying fair market value for all the resource extraction, both current and historic.

I see this ignorance about software development history all the time, making people «reinvent» the past constantly or forgetting the lessons we learned. I think universities need to teach «history of software development» or we’re just going in a loop here, unwittingly reenacting past mistakes.

“DEMAND ELASTICITY IS INFINITE! INFINITE I TELL YOU!” these are the fucking big brains who have been running the us economy for the past half-century.

oh my life, why are there two of these, good grief ``` Enable services: gmail Enable services: gmail.googleapis.com ```

Our government is morally bankrupt #speirghorm

Bit of good news...

@mewtype.online i think this is related to one of your interests: youtu.be/ikPuGWkZWMs

Portugal has provided a great pun, one i as a native had never seen before

Interestingly, rather than simply blocking those signals, Toxoplasma gets its way by doing the exact opposite: Bowler and his team found that the parasite actually kickstarts the human inflammatory response, and proceeds to manipulate it according to its own needs. “

this is quite the collection

Nike backpack w/ molle / pals webbing? first time i've seen one, didn't expect

“Oh noes, children might talk to creeps that might say terrible things to them, ban under 16’s from social media” *but deck the halls with AI toys tho, amirite?*

Anthropic's AI cyberespionage report feels as odd as the last one. Just 13 pages, it has none of the traditional components of a usual threat intel report (IoCs, payload hashes, etc.) and it seems to bury the lead re: technical sophistication. I wonder if a target will come forward. #infosec

Another coworker told me about their daughter being touched by a man in their life; ladies, when you're going to drop something like this, lead with: the dude's first & last name + nickname + residence location + a recent picture, and *then* say what they did. No need to say what you want done.

Trump _embodies_ "The American Dream": he's wealthy, with accountability to nobody. They see their future selves in him. This isn't a battle that can be won through hearts and minds.

It's never late enough in the game for Ireland to score

ty China

Supposedly he came up with the line "ya gotta keep em separated" when he was doing some work with chemicals in the lab

Anecdotally, many of the people I have known, who complained about the me-too movement, turned out to be predators. And thus the pattern repeating on a large scale seems to be incredibly unsurprising.

what's even the point of learning anything anymore when these guys are paid six figures and can't change their own oil

TIL the fridge plums poet dude was also a credentialed medical doctor? real "lead singer of The Offspring is actually a molecular biology phd" moment, but for the previous century

Never forget: the, so-called, Golden Age of American serial killers ended almost immediately after Capitalists weren't allowed to put lead in gasoline anymore.

k folks, i'm done for today; world is just too fucky for my brain, gotta retreat into stone sense of normality elsewhere

Looks like Softbank is selling its stake in NVIDIA and Oracle is eating a downgrade, so... yeah. going to say that we roughly called it, about a month before the bubble actually deflated. Let us hope it is a gentle deflation and not a sudden pop.

do y’all ever get the sense that part of the reason why it’s so easy for people in power to turn a blind eye to these kinds of atrocity is because they know how much more common it is than the general public, and they are desensitized to it?

just saw a V-tailed small jet overflying my kids' school, and i went “what, that's odd” because the only such kind of plans i know is the SF50 yep, my broken eyes didn't trick me: it's N856UM, doing a little puddlejump from Oxford to Weston the world needs to tax these people a lot harder

so, there's a Picasso exhibit here at the national gallery i had to point out to my daughter how “she was his young muse” and “secret relationship” was code for “Picasso was a pædo like the USA president”

Our landscape and ecosystem has been severely damaged for generations and the process by which it occurs is encouraged and subsidised by the State and the EU, initially to meet self-sufficiency needs, but now in the main because of export profitability. A country as an open air cow factory.

just great, Portugal is indebting its people to supply cheap energy for Microsoft's datacentre in Sines, prime tourism spot ofc, because that makes sense and those $10B are a lie www.rte.ie/news/busines...

the UK is gonna bring in regulation for computer booping companies which provide e.g. MSP services to e.g. the NHS which makes sense -- but imagine how the usual suspects in Silly Valley will react to this, the knee-jerk allergic to regulation cry-babies that they are

There's been a lot of pearl-clutching about public grocery stores! Which is wild, because we have a LOT of experience with public grocery stores in the US. And the folks it serves (US military & military families) stand by it.

some parts of Ireland are really good then FF/FG come along and ruin the reputation of the parish

Civil Service speak for "jog on you fucking blonde mopped idiot."

Have you seen the gallows-humour mural in Sheerness of a mermaid with a detonation plunger?
