Apparently covid vaccine can help, and also reduces the risk of covid?

Infinite loop without side-effects is UB; that said, you'd expect potential fall-through, not calling an unrelated function

@rfc6919 @immibis @hailey @chrisisgr8
What a language!

Hmm, a lot of my experience has been a bit of both in any case; primarily and nominally dev, but also making adjustments to the devops automation, with straight ops as necessary (informal on call, Christmas break roster; ssh with sudo access, click ops)

I guess that means technically I've been devops all along, even as the bulk of the work was dev; very rarely did I purely deliver a binary for someone else to run, I think not for over a decade now

I'm not sure if that answers the question, hopefully it helps?

I suspect the problem with "the algorithm" is that you need a whole T&S team to keep it from going off the rails, either organically or in response to deliberate gaming

Baby changing station in a gender-neutral space is good, otherwise you're holding the baby with one hand trying to dig around the bottom of the pram for the spare wipes or something with the other, while your partner has to wait outside

Even better if it's a dedicated parents' room, but at least a gender-neutral space

@guysoft
Thank you, applied! Pretty close to what I'm looking for 🙂

There's probably a Monty Python skit for that

Also probably shouldn't go up against writers in a contest of who can set the narrative

You'd think the free-market people wouldn't need the concept of a clearing price explained to them, but here we are

@goatsarah
Pretty sure that's a plan from the 1930s 😢

1972 is somewhat later than 1932, so either that "sickie" poster isn't Stalin era, or it's some other drink

@clacke @jamey @daedalus @jasongorman
Yeah, there's only really the one model

Lot less than 55 LoC/day if you go by COCOMO

(I think COCOMO works out to something like 10-20 LoC/day? It's been a while since I last played with the formulas...)
