@CarlosE_Drumond @FranklinH3000 @dal0627 This is so obviously true, yeah. It’s on record that Vader wasn’t originally Luke’s father, he was just a fallen Jedi who became a hatchet-man for the empire.

@FranklinH3000 @dal0627 They just made it all up as they went along, and so did the rest of the script. Fans like to think this plot has the kind of strong internal logic you find in, say, The Lord of the Rings, but that's simply not the case.

In the original Star Wars trilogy, the implication *on screen* is that Yoda is 900 years old not because his species lives that long, but because he's *that strong* with the Force. When Luke protests Yoda "can't die," Yoda's response is, "Strong with the Force am I, but ... 1/3

@TheActualCC 100%

If its Knicks vs Spurs: we root for the Spurs If its Knicks vs OKC: we root for the Knicks We all agree right?

@mollyhannahm Loool and the last time the Spurs beat them too

things that didn’t exist last time the knicks made the NBA finals

Wemby tried to get on the jump ball like CP3 taught him. 😅

@Yutaisposting I believe this is “Batman of Shanghai”

@TracketPacer @hatter @shenetworks I don’t know if it was her or someone else on tech twitter but I remember at least one OF link leading to a honeypot server that was keeping stats about how often it got clicked.

@hatter i think @shenetworks may have done this at one point! am i hallucinating lol

every once in a while i get comments like this comparing me to other women & it’s always from the exact group of people (men) who make sex work/sites like OF so profitable for women in the 1st place 🙄 like stop using porn then, donald 🙄

Dale Earnhardt was the most redneck redneck to ever redneck and he took the confederate flag off his car because his Black housekeeper said she didn’t want to see it. It’s really not that hard to not be an asshole.

Everyone COPY this video, share it far and wide. Paramount Skydance billionaire baby David Ellison can’t handle that Stephen Colbert is getting millions of views . @Youtube we will cancel our subscription as we did when we dumped @paramountplus.

@iamjuspat I think this might be manic/depressive

Men only have 5 moods:

@inexorable_swe It’s always a balloon or a lens artifact 🤦

Pentagon: “Possible UFO footage.” OSINT community: “It’s a fucking inflatable Stormtrooper balloon.” Billions in military intelligence, defeated by internet autists with frame-by-frame analysis and free time.

This OKC edit is crazy 😭

The USDA has kept raccoon rabies out of the central United States for over 30 years by air-dropping fish-flavored ravioli from helicopters. Each one is a small packet coated in fishmeal with an oral rabies vaccine inside. Raccoons, foxes, coyotes, and skunks find them by smell, bite through, and swallow. Many animals that consume the bait develop immunity, helping build a protective barrier across populations. The bait is generally considered safe for pets and tested in many non-target species. The USDA's Wildlife Services has been running this since 1995. Without the bait program, raccoon rabies very likely would have spread much further west. A federal program you've probably never heard of is protecting your pets and your kids by feeding wild animals ravioli from a helicopter.

@edzitron Amaaaaaazing. And I JUST bought a copy of “the smartest guys in the room” 🤣

Oh my god

This has a clinical name. Revenge bedtime procrastination. And the ADHD version runs on a completely different mechanism than the neurotypical one. A neurotypical person stays up late because they want more leisure time. The ADHD brain stays up because it spent every drop of dopamine it had on executive function during the day. Sitting in meetings, managing transitions, filtering impulses, remembering the thing you were supposed to remember. That burns through dopamine the way sprinting burns through glycogen. By 10pm the tank is empty. But here's where it gets counterintuitive. The exhaustion is physical. The dopamine deficit is neurological. Those are two separate systems. Your muscles want sleep. Your prefrontal cortex is starving for the stimulation it was denied all day because it spent 14 hours on task-switching and impulse control instead of anything that actually felt rewarding. The phone at midnight is the brain trying to collect what it's owed. Low-effort, high-stimulation content. Scrolling, short videos, rabbit holes. The exact profile of activity that delivers dopamine without requiring the executive function you already depleted. The sleep researchers call this a "self-regulation failure." It's closer to a debt collection. You borrowed against your own reward system to function all day. The bill comes due at midnight. And the brain will not let you sleep until it gets paid.

@pierrecomputer @mitchellh THE CHILDREN YEARN FOR QUALITY SOFTWARE

@mitchellh Thank you man! The people deserve quality software

This is how performant PR review could be. On any forge. Pierre is showing us that the only thing holding that back is a skill issue. Excellent ship here! They’re on fire!

@mitchellh Gotta admit the "vendor your dependencies" crowd was super right about this one.

Fork your dependencies, trim them to only your use case, never update unless it breaks for your users. I’ve been vocal about this for 10+ years. I’ve always said that updating is way riskier than latent bugs (which can be tracked and CVEs monitored). If you are updating a dependency, it’s on you to analyze every single commit in the full transitive set of dependencies. If you dont see anything compelling, dont update! I remember at HashiCorp once in awhile an engineer would try to update a dep or replace a DIY lib with an external one and id always ask “show me the commit we need.” Dont update for the sake of it. Feeling pretty swell about this mentality with all the supply chain attacks happening.

@uncanny_concern @PatrickMcSwain @usedgov If I had a nickel!

@PatrickMcSwain @usedgov Is the shaft discolored from prior use?

SKILLS THAT PAY OFF.

@MarkConcannonSU @JoeKassabian Despite the exclusivity? BECAUSE of the exclusivity!

@JoeKassabian 99% of us who don’t own private jets are not real upset about this development

Lmao shut the fuck up
