Kernel Space - banishes the target to a plane of existence filled with corn

B Tree - an AOE summon of a permanent swarm of bees in the targeted area until the bees all die or leave naturally

Monad - device that transmutes one set of spell components into another. These can be strung together to form very complex things.

Extended Backus-Naur Form - Allows one to transform into a memetic form to be carried in the mind of another; also extends to your clothing and any carried items.

It's not like the value added for that 30% tax isn't there. Steam has made so many things so easy that it's easy to forget what things were like decades ago.

If you were an independent game publisher, you had to figure out how to set up a web storefront, a content delivery network hosted in perpetuity, take payments, do multiplayer, add in-game chat, map every weird joystick and gamepad in the universe to your control scheme, achievements, friend lists.... And every game developer had to do that independently because there was no public solution, really. The friction to enter the indie dev space was so much higher.

Also, steam does not force you to use their store- you can generate steam keys and sell your game away from the steam platform. The only thing that they enforce is if you sell it for a lower price elsewhere, they'll de-list your game. Which I think is reasonable.

Python is Spanish; a ton of people learned a bit in school and never picked it back up again. Places that speak it natively all have their own conventions because, even though the native languages were replaced by colonizers, a lot of the native languages patterns remained in place. Most places that speak it are super welcoming and stoked that you're trying to learn.

Assembly is proto-indo-european

Can't believe they showed one guy fucking another guys foreskin, that seemed really out of place

When you burn a disc it means using a laser to etch the data as pits and lands in a track on the disc. You're physically changing the disc when you write to it.

I stopped posting my kids on social media. I don't think it's fair to them to create an online presence without their informed consent.

This is terrible advice.

OP needs to set boundaries in a paper traceable way after establishing then in person (an email of "dear boss lady, I want to eat lunch alone, kthxbye"), and track violations of those boundaries (dear boss lady, today you sat with me at lunch after I asked you not to, please explain why). (Obviously be more professional).

Then after a few violations, OP can go to HR because suddenly the boss lady is starting the fire; there is a clear history of personal boundaries not being maintained, leading to a hostile work environment.

This only doesn't work when the company is like 5 people and HR is your boss's cousin or whatever.

A French embassy built in 1841 when the territory was its own country. It's now a 5 minute walk to the nearest Wendy's from there.

I started using Python ~15 years ago. I didn't go to school for CS.

Compared to using literally anything else at the time as a beginner, pip was the best thing out there that I could finally understand for getting third party code to work with my stuff, without copy paste... on Windows.

When I tried Linux, package managers and make were pretty cool for doing C/C++ work.

Despite all that, us "regular" engineers were consigned to Windows.

We either had to use VBA or a runtime that didn't need to be installed.

Downloading a movie only to find it was the pain Olympics or a cartel/terrorist beheading was also fun
