My AuDHD kid (in their 20s) sleeps like a brick and always has. That kid has perfect sleep regulation and always has. I'm so envious.

For Haskell to land that low on the list tells me they either couldn't find a good Haskell programmer and/or weren't using GHC.

I can't help but doubt that it was actually protesters who did this. LAPD and ICE would have been tripping over themselves at the opportunity to use deadly force against someone committing a felony, and the FBI put someone on the most wanted list over dinging a police vehicle.

Protesters know that there are surveillance cameras everywhere. Why would they burn a couple of Waymos and do literally nothing about the readily visible cameras literally everywhere around them?

On the other hand, both ICE and LAPD need the imagery of a city on fire to sell their necessity.

This is absolutely true. The women who actually prefer 7+ inches are rare, and most explicitly seeking it haven't actually experienced it. My girl prefers 5 or smaller because we can't do the things she enjoys at my size.

The size you're describing isn't small enough to even make jokes about. Believe me, I've heard women joke about size and it's the 2 inches or less while erect range; and even then it's about bad hookups or guys that have been awful to them.
Girls that see random flaccid dick regularly are even less likely to joke about size.

More likely that she was smiling because now she knows you know her friend which means you have a shared outside connection.

The size you describe isn't small enough to merit being called small. It's barely below the statistical mean.

What's more is that waxers are well aware that growers exist, and (at least in my area) that's mostly what they see. It wouldn't even be cause for comment. The kinds of things they even bother telling each other about are like people who want fancy patterns waxed, or who have awful smelling active infections and have to be told to go get treated and come back. Occasionally they might talk about big tough guys who end up weeping like a baby (not just tears in the eyes, but bawling), or when they personally make mistakes.

At most your aesthetician told her that you got waxed and how she found out there was a connection. If your coworker bothered asking about your size she'd have gotten the usual response of, "who knows? You can never really tell during waxing because pain and fear of pain shrink things."

Anyone else noticing the similarities between the new pro-Elon anti-Trump statements and the old pro- Trump anti-Harris statements?

I'm guessing a lot of this is Elon's troll farms at work.

Big same on the acts of selflessness. Especially over the last few years..

I'm exactly like you're describing and a little older than you (44). Songs, TV shows, movies, animated series. It's a trivial feat to make me tear up at pretty much anything someone might consider touching.

I suppose it's outside of the statistical norm for our demographic, but I wouldn't say there's anything wrong with it. We feel things and we express those feelings when we have them. I'd argue it's a lot healthier than what the statistical mean of our cohort does.

There are good reasons to hide what's going on inside. Some are simply not prepared: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DIKJ6n-vSKt/

None that have come up in that time. I'm in my mid 40s now.

I'm personally on a combination of Adderall and Adderall XR and have had the exact same problem (except the insomnia, which I've always had). For me it's about every 5 or 6 months, unless I skip it on the weekends then it's about every 10 months.

What I do to counteract it is take occasional two week breaks from my meds, just whenever my workload becomes less critical or the side effects get unbearable. I've been doing that for about 18 years now, and it works for me.

This seems like one of the areas where LLM generative AI could actually be a good thing. It would not be difficult to have such a system desensationalize the media we consume. It'd still be propaganda, but it would largely be toothless. Propaganda relies heavily on appeals to our fears and other emotions. Put it through a sieve that filters most of that out and it becomes much less engaging.

I hadn't thought about it until reading your comment here but I accidentally raised my GenZ kids this way. If I hadn't done this I never would have seen my eldest heading down the misogynist edgelord path and intervened.

The only decent computer in the house was in the living room, and they had clunky retired elementary school computers in their rooms running Linux and Open Office so they could work on homework (no internet, USB drive to save homework and send from family computer). It wasn't because I sought to keep them from using the internet privately, it was because we couldn't really afford better.

It's apparently PowerAutomate Adaptive cards.

It's MS Teams with their PowerAutomate flows from Fabric. The limitation might not exist in the direct rest API, which I could have used through Python; but it's a hackathon, and my other team mates know PowerAutomate. Faster if we each coordinate using what we're good with.

Honestly no idea. It's funny though. The API allows us to either read it directly from our lakehouse with the 28Kb limit, or allows us to encode it in a json object. It actually recommends using the json method if we want to send larger files... but then complains it's too large if it's over 28Kb 🤷‍♂️

I think it was probably originally only intended to allow attaching icons.

Literally just today solved a problem of delivering analytics plots over our internal chat system. The file size limit is 28Kb and I was just getting ready to say screw it, can't be done.

Lo and behold our chat system that doesn't support svg does support webp. Even visually complicated charts come in just below the size limit with webp.

I think the proliferation of videos as primary information sources is a huge part of how propaganda and disinformation became so effective and powerful. It's why we've done a collective nosedive into regressive politics and can no longer agree on the objective facts regarding.. well.. anything!

Information delivered by video tends to be trusted on the way it's delivered rather than the content itself. So we're thinking less critically about what we choose to believe.
