Wordle #1244, Thursday 14.11.2024
  • I don't know how to do the fancy thing you guys do. But at least I got this one. Last try and really wasnt sure it was a word. Fuck yesterday though! Combined with today's I thought I'd been picked up by some sort of anti cheat system and was being fucked with!

  • Tucker Time: Wed 9 Oct 2024
  • My wife cooked a lentil loaf yesterday, which tonight we're having the leftovers of with some leftover steak. I'm not normally much of a lentil loaf sorta person but by Christ it was tasty.

  • Total Denotational Semantics (blog)
  • If was half a joke, but that mathematics might as well have been hieroglyphics.

    Would you class this as computational theory? As a software developer is this field likely to be used in a day to day manner or is it more abstract than that?

  • Confused about multiplying floating-point & integer values
  • I've been hiring programmers recently. A year or two experience wins out over a degree almost any time. I don't know if there are any developers (or even website administrators) at you current job, but if there are I'd see you if you can start by helping them out, maybe helping out when they're on leave or picking up little jobs and then you'll get your foot in the door in no time at all.

    Actually the last dev I hired had no experience at all, I just really liked him, and he's turned out brilliantly.

  • Solar will get too cheap to connect to the power grid.
  • But generally they would be parked, right? At the office, or transport hubs? Maybe that's where the batteries need to be installed. Take the responsibility off private citizens and install it where there's going to be a mass of cars parked.

  • What's a phrase you hear a lot, but disagree with?
  • I'd only ever say it while referring to myself, and when I do it's not of a consolation to myself or maybe as a way to tell the other person to not feel sorry about distracting me and making me forget. Is that the same way you interpret it?

  • Hexcodle #342
  • Woah, what an awesome game. Took a couple of games to get the hang of, but then after going back a few days I got:

    I got Hexcodle #339 in 3! Score: 84%

  • What bizarre misconceptions do people have about your field?
  • When I lost my credit card overseas I was issued an emergency replacement by MasterCard and it only had MasterCard branding. I guess sometimes they issue cards (unless they got a bank to print it without their branding).

  • Deleted
    *Permanently Deleted*
  • I'm going to throw this idea into the mix. It's how I'd handle the situation and it's generally worked pretty well for me. Ideally you'd send a message like this when your friend is online and playing but it really doesn't matter when you send it.

    "Hey mate, just noticed you and x and y are online. Mind if I jump in for a bit? Be great to have a game or two"

    Nice and relaxed, no pressure, no coming off as needy. There's the possibility he'll say it's not the right time or they're working on something together - that's fine too, at least you know why. If you join in just play a game or two unless you really feel your gelling with them. Whether you stick around or drop out follow it up with.

    "Good game guys, thanks for letting me drop in."

    The next time they're online it'll be easier for them to include you or you to ask to be in again.

    Nethack - the ultimate low end system capable game

    Nethack is now 36 years old, still in development, runs on windows, Linux, Apple and a multitude of other systems. You can run it in a console, remotely, if you don't have the ability to install or download to your computer. It's complex, difficult, entertaining and will soak up any free time you have.

    I've played it on and off for a decade now and never made it past half way and have always learnt something new.

    Play in browser: https://alt.org/nethack/hterm/ Telnet: alt.org port 23 SSH: nethack@alt.org Download: https://www.nethack.org/

    Have you got the Amulet of Yendor? Any stupid deaths? Surprising finds?
