IMO, it should be 20mph, but it's a software limit. It's nothing to "tune" it.

If you want to go faster, get a motorcycle license. The higher end ebikes are getting ridiculous. Their frames, tires, and brakes are not designed for the power and speed they can put down.

The assassin did hit a firefighter behind Trump. Did God not care about that guy?

Whenever some fundie says something about sexual education, replace it with food in the argument.

Nutritional education should be a private matter between a parent and child.

Teaching about food in school encourages kids to eat more food.

We don't make this sort of argument about literally any other subject. The very fact that they make these arguments shows they are putting sex in a special place, and will be completely incompetent at actually talking to their kids about sex.

People taking care of each other less is not a good sign.

We had a real union before. If there was a natural disaster in California or Texas or Florida or New York, we all pitched in to help. That's what federal taxes that go to FEMA do.

That's breaking down. No matter why it's happened or who is responsible, this is a bad sign.

Do you leave auto formatting on and deal with Confluence making bad decisions, or leave it off and have to manually set all the formatting?

I go for the second option, but I'm not sure it's less irritating or not.

GitHub tickets are fine.

Jira is complicated because PMs want it to do everything. It can, but there's no good reason for it.

I get to say that I've truly made it as a programmer. The reason is that I wrote around 75 lines of Rust, came back a year later, and I could see exactly how it works.

In case you're wondering, it's a command line Slack client for sending notifications. Colored highlights and everything.

My company sends out emails like "vibe it up" with links to their vibe coding workshops.

I'm getting the impression that people need it explained that "vibe coding" is not supposed to be a complement.

Take Titanic, where the movie is a romance that happens to be set in a historical event.

Now imagine that instead of a director who really loves the ocean, it's a director who really loves blowing shit up. That's Pearl Harbor, and you would be correct for avoiding it with violence if necessary.

The issues are systemic and won't be solved by replacing people.

As one example, it would be 100% legal in many states for a bad cop to rape a prisoner. No matter how many good cops testify against them, there would be no legal basis for prosecuting them. At best, department policy would give cause to fire them. Then they'll get a job in some county with an elected sheriff who ran on being Tough On Crime (tm).

Well, yeah, that's what it should be.
