Day 1: Taco and Prune juice night Day 2: Make them breakfast - coffee and bran flakes; bran muffin. Day 3: Make a cake. Chocolate. Use a pastry bag to ice it with chocolate icing. Be absolutely sure they see you squeezing out the icing onto the cake with a very satisfied, nearly orgasmic look on your face. Make eye contact. Smile. Wink.

I can't express in words just how much i despise LexisNexis. The English language lacks the expressiveness and nuance necessary.

This dogshit organization knows everything about me. Every purchase I make; every account I have; any legal proceeding of any kind i'm involved in; every address or phone number i've ever had... the level of data mining, hoarding, and sale is absolutely dystopian. I can't opt out. I can't tell them to delete it. I can't ask for a copy of it.

Its the modern corporate equivalent of the schoolyard tattle tale, running to the teacher any time somebody farts.

It gets when worse when states use the service to host their code of laws. Here in TN, the official version of the Tennessee Code Annotated, the official state law set, is on lexisnexis and i can't read it without a crazy expensive subscription. Laws I am subject to i can't read in the form they're enforced from.

How fucking absurd is that?

I had a similar thought a while back. I got into making pens. There's a bit of a learning curve and some equipment necessary to get started, but once you get the hang of it, you can turn $20 of materials into $100+, and people with money to blow go nuts for them. I sold 3 pens for $300 to one person not so long ago.

Biggest thing you'll need is a lathe. I got a Wen lathe on amazon for like $150. Get some carbide turning tools for like $40 and you're mostly set.

That’s because musk is a dumb narcissistic cocky asshole.

Man. That’s the control you give to your little brother because you don’t want him to get the good control all sticky.

Damn man. I’m a full time senior dev, and if I was doing 12-16 hour days, I’d end up snapping during a code review and beating another dev to death with a misplaced semicolon.

While sadly not uncommon, especially for junior devs and those living that agency life, that’s absolutely not acceptable. If I found one of my guys was putting in that much time, we’d be having a conversation.

That’s wonderful until you have a client asking why their pre-alpha demo that you forgot they had access to just called them a fuckwit.

Don’t ask me how I know that one :D
