I know it's not consistent but I read them like zsh = zee shell, ssh I spell out "s s h", sudo I say /ˈsuː.doʊ/. or "soo dough"

I heard a lot of people liked Watership Down, so I got it digitally. I tried to like it, I really did, but I just couldn't... I don't know, care? It just started feeling like a labor to read it so I stopped about 20% of the way in.

Idk maybe one day I'll give it another try.

Recently finished everything in Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere, now waiting for December for the next Stormlight Archives book.

I found out that Satisfactory is on sale right now, and will go up in price by $10 after the sale. So if you want it before 1.0 comes out now would be a great time.

Basically this Futurama bit. I knew this joke felt familiar.

ECMAScript spec says Math.random must be less than 1. I was about to stop there, but a thought occurred to me: could the multiply with a float make a number large enough to floor to a different value for large enough values? 🤔

I imagine it'd have to be a ridiculously large number to amount enough floating point imprecision to matter, if so.

They said "primarily", not "exclusively."

I can only speak from the experience of one app at one company, but data we collected was for troubleshooting. Mainly because customers will email us stuff like "your app doesn't work!!!!! Worst company ever!!" And absolutely no identifying information whatsoever. To make matters worse they'll email with an email that they didn't give us as a customer so how in the world are we supposed to help‽
So we collect enough data so whoever in the company might need to help them can actually do so.
There's a lot of "this app is impossible to use!!!" That we find out with enough data collection is just them refusing to hit the GIANT button in the middle of the damn screen that would solve their problem. I hate users.
I believe we answered questions in the Apple and Google stores that says that we collect information and send it to 3rd parties (because analytics platforms are technically 3rd party) but not to sell it. I don't know if that distinction is clear on the stores though.

I didn't?

Negative percentages

...not that that should be possible though. It uses sumy to do the summaries.
