This makes me feel so much better after spending a morning banging my head against some wild pointer arithmetic, thank you much much! (Ultimately the pointer incantations were successful, praise be!)

More accurately, "prior" is much less ambiguous than "last" and thus more likely to satisfy the predilections of a pedant.

Gosh I love the depth of pedantry available to descriptivists!

I've been obsessed with it!! The cooking is amazing and I love the philosophical bits that are woven through everything.

Are you worried the cooking focus might take a back seat as the current storyline proceeds?

This feels like a Ryan Gosling reskin of a 3Blue1Brown video 😅 (which I guess really isn't even a little surprising... But it's a chance spread the good word of Mr. Sanderson!)

I believe it is Paper Cassette! And yes, I feel very old.

Oh, I had no idea Shortyz was forked, I'm so glad there's a maintained version thank you!

Mustard makes many things great ☺️ But I might also try this mayo and cheese combination you speak of, thank you stranger!

Don't forget the mustard! Do you cut your slices in half of just cut out a sliver (to prevent bowing/cupping)? And are you one of those folks that add cheese??

Agreed, it's definitely coming from the top! I didn't realize they had closed a ton of the other offices during the pandemic, but I suppose it's not surprising either. It also seemed like a lot of remote hiring happened during the pandemic?

Most of the people I know personally affected are in that category (remotely hired or relocated), and most of those people are women. Small sample size with lots of bias, but I've been pretty upset the whole situation. It definitely feels/looks like a way to quietly push a bunch of folks out... whether overtly or as a "bonus" for upper management, it has the same unfortunate effect.

I guess it is what it is, but what it is ain't good. It feels good to commiserate though, thank you stranger!

So this is like an Austrian Cincinnati chili?

For some reason I really want to love Vienna sausages... but I just can't. Maybe one day!

Thank you for the memory! The first "retail" card I ever purchased (from a small town computer shop), literally just said AGP Graphics Adapter on the box... and inside was a delightfully generic SiS board, with which I had many fun hours.

Noooo, Ferris don't do it!
