wyrmroot,

So, I actually had this because of my humidifier. I was using an ultrasonic humidifier with tap water - I know distilled is recommended, but with how dry it is here, that would mean an insane amount of bottled water. But I noticed a film of white dust appearing around the room from the dispersed salts and whatnot. Turning off the humidifier (and later replacing it with an evaporative style) cleared up my daily stuffiness instantly.

wyrmroot,

Yeah agreed. But I guess I’d rather do that than clean it off my walls (and lungs apparently?). Definitely recommend getting a bigger one than you need, though, so you can run the fan lower and the media takes a little longer to get crusty.

The IRS plans to triple the audit rates on large corporations with assets of more than $250 million. Audit rates for these companies will rise to 22.6% in tax year 2026 from 8.8% in 2019.

Large partnerships with assets of more than $10 million will see their audit rates increase 10-fold, rising to 1% in tax year 2026 from 0.1% in 2019.

Wealthy individuals with total positive income of more than $10 million will see their audit rates rise 50% to 16.5% from 11% in 2019.

“There is no new wave of audits coming from middle- and low-income [individuals], coming from mom and pops. That’s not in our plans,” Werfel said.

a stable experience that isn’t buggy

Stable has a particular meaning with distros but I think the context here is using the plain English definition of the word.

wyrmroot,

Was fully prepared for the answer to this to be that a couple extra molecules evaporating don’t make a big difference, but:

Under the optimum conditions of color, angle, and polarization, Lv says, “the evaporation rate is four times the thermal limit.”

That sounds legitimately exciting!

wyrmroot,

This change would also be bad for anything that scans for keywords, which includes most applicant tracking software.

wyrmroot,

A car already must be classified as finishing the race to get any points, so this isn’t likely to be an issue.

wyrmroot,

I once spent a few days sketching out what sort of video game I would make, if I ever did. More as an exercise for myself (a developer nowhere near the game industry) rather than an actual plan. At the end of it, I had a sci fi setting with a handful of roguelike and deckbuilder elements. Shortly after, I discovered Breachway, and it felt like someone had been reading my mind. I love that they have a proper demo, and now I’m really excited to see the game approach its release!

wyrmroot,

The README lacks a description of why I would choose this over rm. The name makes me think it might replace shred but that doesn’t appear to be the case.

wyrmroot,

This is an excellent summary of your future if you pursue this job listing.

wyrmroot,

I didn’t get scammed, I just bought a perfect emerald cap at slightly above market rate 😭

Something that’s weirdly stuck with me (even though he’s not my favorite philosopher) is Kant’s Categorical Imperative which says, briefly, do only the things that would still be okay if everyone did them.

I think it fills in a nice gap left by the golden rule (treat others as you’d like to be treated) in drawing attention to how some things which don’t seem to do much harm would be a major problem if broadly adopted.

wyrmroot,

I think the CI is far from a universal law that solves all problems. But I do think it can be among a set of useful tests to judge an action. I’m not sure the surgeon example is in good faith - a reasonable interpretation might be “Help others to the extent that you are trained and able to”, which gets you pretty close to most Good Samaritan laws.

Most imperatives taken literally and expected to fit every situation and interpretation will fall apart quickly, I think this one is no better or worse than others. Probably the way I’ve internalized it is different from how it was originally intended, too!

wyrmroot,

I can’t disagree, except to the extent that I don’t personally view the CI as a means to reaching some objective, universally “good” set of actions. I think Kant was way off the mark with a lot of that pursuit. I do think, however, that an action which fails to satisfy the CI (meaning as I see it, “I want to do this but I don’t think others should”) is often one that should be re-evaluated.

But also I took like 3 philosophy courses so I’m officially in way over my head now but enjoy the discussion!

wyrmroot,

Brb strapping in for the wildest 2 years, 11 months of my life.

Thanks for posting this though. Remember folks, even the super safe drugs are only safe for their intended purpose and dose.

wyrmroot,

A way that I find helpful to answer questions like this is to look backwards when taking multiple doses:

“If I were to take another pill now, would I have had no more than 1-2 pills in the last 4 hours?”

The pharmacokinetic questions are outside the scope of what the patient should be trying to figure out when taking a drug. That was the responsibility of the drug label writer and (if applicable) the prescribing physician and/or pharmacist. Yours is to faithfully follow the instructions, not make assumptions about drug residence time or loading doses.

wyrmroot,

If someone walked in with a tray of papers looking bored, I’d think little of it. These folks sneaking around like fucking scooby doo villains is so wild.

wyrmroot,

I hate seeing data encoded into magic comments, struct tags included. One of my biggest gripes with Go is that I think they should have used a different symbol to distinguish important annotations from true comments.

wyrmroot,

I would have recommended oat, but if you say lactose free milk is already too sweet I think you’re likely to find the same with oat. Macadamia is probably the “creamiest” non-sweet alternative I’ve tried, give it a shot.

That being said, stay open to the idea of cutting back on additives altogether. I went through all sorts of things just to discover that what I liked wasn’t a particular creamer or sweetener or coffee brand - it was just lighter roasted coffee 😅

wyrmroot,

It’s an old trope, but still bugs me: Ordering food and leaving the table long before it could have arrived.

If you wanted to have a 5 second conversation, meet under a lamppost or something, not at a fucking diner!

wyrmroot,

Balatro. So much Balatro.

It’s addictive, but in all the good(?) ways. Lots of “just one more run” potential.

Sometimes I’ll throw a cardamom pod into the cup before making a latte

wyrmroot,

Have you looked at IPFS? I used it to host a small site just to see how it works, it’s pretty neat.
