@inthehands yeah the golden age. and not a comment on your post, just a thought association whenever someone emphasises "not FOR you."

@molly0xfff What I thought this post was referring to, in order:

1. The temperature scale — dismissed when it was "based in the US."
2. The energy drink — dismissed whenI reached the word "platform."

@molly0xfff ugh. It doesn't matter where it's based if it isn't regulated.

@thomasfuchs Fully expect this to be ignored.

"In light of the tidal wave of negative feedback on the experimental integration of LLM technology into the core Firefox product, Mozilla has decided to ignore the desires of all the loyal users who value openness, privacy, and transparency and go ahead with it anyway."

@evan Almost always, because it's not always useful, but a noble endeavor.

@evan I do wonder if there's an event that inspired this question?

Inspired by actual events

@evan Yes. Unfortunately Duolingo disagrees with us.

For context, I majored in Spanish before defecting to CS, but noun/adjective word order is not an advanced concept.

I am not perfect, and I have made plenty of goofs in my days spent reviewing. But I have never tapped the "My answer should have been accepted" option so many times in my life.

@evan Unless you were suggesting they counted my answer wrong because it showed the incorrect level of emotional emphasis for the exercise.

If so, I can only say that they have been entirely flexible about noun/adjective order in all exercises so far. And there is insufficient context in the exercise to make such a distinction credit-worthy.

Wut

@feld Ah, so they took the kitty approach there as well...

@evan Taken another way:

What is a pod definition but a yaml configuration file?

What is a .env file but a Bourne configuration file?

@evan The advantage to them being: you only have to know one configuration language to be able to configure any containerized service.

Whether or not yaml is a worthy victor in this arena is left to a much longer, future thread.

@evan I guess the 7 vars they make available for customization is pretty flexible, and handles the vast majority of simple cases. I guess I was thinking more about the intricacies of pg_hba or similar.

@evan I feel that pain. But I can't imagine trying to configure a core service (eg, sshd, sendmail, psql) with env vars.

@evan I'd be "never", but I'm guessing people who never online-game by policy should have abstained anyway.

@spacehobo Man, I thought I was a pedant.

@evan Are you a cat?
