The majority of the code for my OBJ parser is around 20 years old now. Basically no updates or maintenance needed during that time.

The main problem with using a lib for something like an OBJ loader is that learning the lib, its quirks and its bugs often takes longer than just writing your own. And God forbid the library author decides to "update" it and change around the API for no reason.

That, um, appears to be a floating point exact equality test, which is seldom what you want...

C++ is such an eyesore

FOSS.

But it's a fantasy that LLM's will replace any devs. If anything it will just make more work for them, fixing bugs in LLM code generated by non-devs.

Whoa! What an amazing selection of software! I'm totally set to write text mode MUDs in C!

Now try to edit a video on linux.

One of the reasons I tend to roll my own if it's feasible.

Estados Unidos Mexicanos

The US can't even keep their neighbor on the petrodollar.

So all the downsides of Linux's weak software selection with all the downsides of Windows' shit kernel. Hooray!

Lye? Big deal.

But lye isn't green. Green things are typically dyed because of dangerous or toxic chemicals, like ethylene glycol antifreeze. Which is probably what that is. It breaks down in the environment by itself in 10 days. They literally just spray thousands of gallons of it all over the wings of airliners all the time.

THC clearly affects your judgement, first and foremost about the use of it.

Colds and flus are just what we call your immune response to a very large list of viruses which cause little to no symptoms in and of themselves. That's why it can be hard to tell a mild cold from bad allergies; they're the same thing.

Their accountants or lawyers created the annual report.

"Randomness" from a human language perspective has little to do with security. Length has a larger effect than adding symbols and numbers to your character set, or making the password not human words.

15 characters from the set of 90 on an English keyboard: 3.95x10^29 combinations. Hard to type and remember.

6 words from the Oxford English Dictionary (171476 terms): 2.54x10^31 combinations. Trivial to type and remember.

You want longer passwords, not "harder" passwords.

Anyone can be captured. The FBI shows up to your house and tells you what to do if you don't want them to find 100TB of Illegal Content(TM) on your hard drive.

I never use "or later" because then you're fucked if and when the FSF gets captured.

He had to carefully time some of his trips so that he'd pass through certain routes in certain states when the weigh stations were closed in order to not get completely raped on fines because that state decided to have stupid weight limits for rent-seeking purposes. One of the Carolinas, I think.

I had a cousin who was a trucker for years and then got out of it about 5 years ago because the industry started going to shit. Dunno the details, but it's a datapoint for you.

The churches ignore any scripture that would inconvenience their members.

But Jesus told him, “Let the spiritually dead bury their own dead! Your duty is to go and preach about the Kingdom of God.”

As Jesus was speaking to the crowd, his mother and brothers stood outside, asking to speak to him. Someone told Jesus, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, and they want to speak to you.” Jesus asked, “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?” Then he pointed to his disciples and said, “Look, these are my mother and brothers. Anyone who does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother!”

Now, your specific duty (probably) isn't to go be a travelling preacher, and you aren't Jesus himself, but the point is clear: You should not to let errant family members drag you down into their own bad behavior or distract you from the good things that you need to be doing, whatever they are.

Blood creates a bond, but subsequent actions can sever it.
