The Red Queen, the Goddess of Red Berries, the Lady of Red, Red Leaves moves o'er forest and field. Where She treads the wind follows, stirring red and gold to falling wonder! She Who brought Summer's Fulness walks now into westering sun, trailing leaves and berries like blood!❣

I honestly never understood explicit conversion until... now. pulling numbers out of strings... the console.WriteLine method in C#, always produces a string, so you have to convert it to a numeric value when doing math.


Somebody on #Mastodon assumed I was a guy. Funniest thing I have had happen to me all week so far. For once, I'm somebody who laughs at such things; I seriously don't have time to take part in the "offense culture" that's taken hold of this universe.

accidentally changed my @WakaTime API key trying to show it (those buttons for generate a new one and show could be better labeled for screen readers, right now they just say "button"), and now newly installed VS 2022 is not tracking data.





@coinbase it's a security problem to not allow removing a phone number that's used for 2FA, especially after I don't have access to that number anymore.

I don't trust them... they don't even offer an alternative way to change your password if you no longer have access to your email... even though they do take your phone number. Messy AF. twitter.com/1546153346/sta…


an example of how NOT to do UX: fake dismiss button on error alert banners. Looking at you @coinbase

Not to mention not allowing VOIP numbers? This security theater makes me seriously question the quality of Coinbase engineering.

(Curiously, this '96 F-250 had a Four Seasons replacement compressor, also dated 1996 along with a replacement accumulator/dryer. Infant mortality/warranty failure? If so, why not use the Ford parts?)

On another note... I'm consistently sad regarding the education people get in school regarding computers. The majority of things that people are taught don't encompass the whole bredth of abilities that devices have.


I hate to consider any area where Mother boston reigns to be cursed, but she is only one entity.


this is nearly almost always expected. Not surprised in the least. that area is cursed. And I'm not just joking around.
