You’re limited on UX when it comes to PWAs. For tools where this matters a lot, PWAs are a non-starter.

Iceland runs plenty of these and has a nice culture of frequenting the public bathhouse. It’s one of the few things you can do that is actually affordable there.

They do have the advantage of having essentially infinite clean energy in the form of geothermal heat. As do Japan in many cases, for that matter. I’m sure that has something to do with these institutions having staying power there.

Anyway, I think this idea has merits, but not as an energy saving measure. The reason for this is that in order to maintain good water quality, you have to shower thoroughly before getting into the bath, negating the potential energy benefits of the initiative. We can bring it back for it being nice, though!

Gotcha!

Well, I’m not in a Balatro-period right now, but when the itch comes back I’ll probably buy it for mobile as well.

Are you aware of any platform affordances that have been made for mobile in this release, or is it basically the same as the unofficial ports you can DIY?

Doesn’t quite seem to be out on Android yet, at least not in my market. I could pre-register and have it download automatically when it’s out, though.

It didn’t list a price and said there was an in-app purchase, anyone know what that’s about? Will I be able to use the copy I bought for PC or what?

Anyway, this is great. Granted, I’ve been playing Balatro on mobile for many months already, but an officially supported version is even better.

Ah shit, my bad. Will update my comment.

I believe they whined about something about the deep state being against them though, so I guess I connected the dots where no connection existed.

There was a lot of talk about it in the news, and the right wing party did distance itself from some of the elements of the operation. Mostly they played the fake news card though, and essentially claimed that the deep state was against them - because the investigation came from the Swedish state media company.

They also had a lackluster election result (EU elections) right after, but who knows how much impact this thing had, if any.

Anyway, basically all of them are still in their jobs and they are actively taking a shit down the throats of the Swedish population, as they are currently in the majority block of the government and can as such get a lot of their politics through.

Death, and tight spaces.

I’d call it common as in commonly offered, less so as commonly ordered. In my experience, at least.

Yes. It gets used by people commuting long distances by bike and people who work out during lunch, or for anyone who needs to shower for other unknown reasons.

Jokes on you, I shop and shower while at the office as well.

I used to think I didn’t like exercise. As it turns out, I’m just not that into running. I love biking though.

I’ve always loved weight lifting as well, though, so idk

It baffles me that people actually take these assertions seriously, especially after having used different software that uses voice input, like Siri, Google Assistant, Alexa or whatever. Those things make some serious mistakes even under ideal circumstances, and you want me to believe that they can accurately overhear things in non-ideal circumstances? I highly doubt it.

Regardless, you can use an ad blocker to make this a moot point - I’ve never experienced anything even close to this, because I never get ads.

I struggled with this as well, having not enjoyed my teenage years that much.

How I coped was to tell myself that people asserting that period X is the best years of your life are people whose lives peaked at that time, and that this won’t be true if I made sure to not have my life peak then.

I’m happy to say that I’ve proven the assertion wrong in my case. It’s been a steady climb upwards, with every year being better than the latter.

General purpose: Kebab case

But really, follow the conventions of what you’re working on. For example, I’d use pascal case when working on a Java/Kotlin project, and snake case when working on a Python project.

Testing in prod is a power move honestly. Rock star-level

S-tier soundtrack on THPS2, hard agree OP

I consider the question of free coffee to be a litmus test for any company. If you’re not offering it, you are unequivocally a loser not worthy of running a company:

1. It costs next to nothing
2. Caffeine makes the workers more productive
3. Your best outcome is workers who drink a healthy amount of coffee every day

The expected return of offering free unlimited coffee for any work place is positive - and the inverse of not offering free coffee is hence negative.

I hate statistical rigour, I want everything to be vibes-based instead

Not saying there’s any reason to switch, but I believe you can load CSV’s into sqlite.

Datasette would be something that I would try for CSV’s as well, that seems like an interesting piece of technology I haven’t had reason to use yet.

Finally there’s always Jupiter Notebook and any respectable DataFrame-solution.

Not to knock spreadsheet-solutions too much - I certainly see their value and use them frequently - but if I had to do something that warranted writing VBA, I’d probably reach for a tool I could combine with some form of VCS like Git at least.

I don’t know if it matches your desire for easy install of small disk space, but it might make up for it in other arenas - Ruby is my new-found love when making simple scripts. Being able to mostly emulate the shell integration that bash has by just using backticks to call a shell command is the killer feature in my book.
