Await is usually there either because the performance doesn’t matter and the legibility is much higher with it, and/or because there are a series of asynchronous actions that depend on each other and await lets you write them as if they are sync because related to each other they are.

We keep voting in slim margins. If we want an effective government we actually need to fill it with enough people who will work together.

Biden barely had the senate, including independents and 2 relatively conservative dems. The house was then lost and the house then did nothing productive.

The democrats are not a unified block because we have 2 parties for way too many views.

We need to overhaul the system to actually break the 2 party hold and that can unfortunately only happen if you vote in enough people who actually take up issues like removing first past the post, the electoral college, and trying to make mail in ballots easier, pushing for ranked choice voting so people could actually vote for candidates in the order of who they actually like the most.

Luckily some of this can be done state by state so keep track of local politics. Your state politicians can also make this better.

You will find yourself being that next person when you haven’t touched the code for a week and come back to add something and are like wtf.

But I’ve never heard the first name said so say it like couch-y

Which of your “friends” do you dislike so much that you invite them to a bbq but are absolutely unwilling to make food that they will eat?

When I cook I cater to my guests, because I like them, their company, and want them to come and feel welcome.

There’s a game called something like “oh no the farmer is gone” which is about programming a little robot to harvest the fields and the programming is built directly into the game

Pray tell, which ones are pointless?

I always do, I love having ligatures

Having ≠ looks much nicer then !=

And that’s why we use temurin

“the 15 hours customers get free with premium equates to two audiobooks” Is the average audiobook really that short!

For eragon it would takes months to finish.

The hobbit is 10 hours.

Think most of the books I’ve listened to have been over that length, but I don’t use Spotify. Self hosting for the win. No time limits in prologue

If it’s late then it’s free and that sounds pretty late to me

Ebooks, audiobooks, music, could all work in that realm

I don’t think it even played in my country so…. How do they want me to buy it exactly…

It looks like Linux support is going to be actually actively looked at again soon with playnite 11, so there is still hope

I use playknight, though I still don’t buy from epic.

Play knight gives me an overview of all humble keys I haven’t used as well as gog, steam, epic, etc.

Just helps me make sure I don’t buy a game on sale that I own

Think California specifically made a law that whatever the sign up method is there must also exist that method for cancellation.

Laws against bs.

5. Save the Thesis in a PDF

Not just save as a pdf, proof read the entire pdf. I’ve had word destroy graphics during conversion.

Double check that the pdf looks correct

For me it’s much easier to lock the phone by holding any volume and power then to remember the sequence needed to force power of the phone.

Clicking 5 times on power is probably faster, but I forgot that existed and if I’m trying to do something quickly essentially squeezing my phone is easier than trying to tap the correct side 5 times quickly under pressure. And much easier to me then trying to remember the force power off sequence and performing it without looking under stress.

Especially on the iPhone 15 pros there is now another button so getting the up down up power means finding the correct up button.

I’ve looked up that sequence numerous times when I’ve needed to force reboot and I still forget it half the time.

Can they force you to look at your phone though? Attention aware Face ID requires eyes ball on screen.

And as others have stated, holding volume up and power u til the iPhone vibrates locks the phone requiring the passcode.
