There was something wrong here, but the… right kind of wrong.
Looking back, those times were an incredible desert of of titillation compared to the desserts of today.

No, never did find it… But I’m pretty sure now that pen really was his. It was just a mildly unlikely coincidence that he had one just like mine.
I felt at the time that I’d been conned out of some things in the past, and that had me set a bit too hard on “not being fooled again”, so I overdid it.
One particular case I remember is exchanging toy cars with someone, and them claiming later that day that they lost the car i just gave them. So I spent a good few minutes looking for it with them. I even insisted “no, let’s look again” when they suggested we give up. I felt bad that they’d lost out on our exchange, so I gave them back the car they’d given me, just to ease their misfortune. Only to hear the next day how they’d been bragging about fooling me. Gah.
I had a similar thing with a pen, the very same year I think… I had a mildly special pen which one day I lost. Went looking for it and found it sitting on a (slightly older) classmate’s desk, so i grabbed it and said “hey, that’s mine”. He tried to pretend that no, it was his, and he sounded very convincing about it, and even got the teacher involved. They both looked at me with infuriatingly condescending expressions as I explained how it was mine.
The teacher suggested “just let him have it” to the classmate, who conceded.
I went back to my desk fuming and scratched my initials into it before returning to show them, "look, see, it was mine! The classmate immediately pointed out “you scratched those in just now” and I think I mumbled something incoherent before going back to my desk, to the teacher’s mortification with the whole situation.
It had already begun dawning on me at this point that the classmate was right… That wasn’t my pen. It was his and just looked like mine. But it was too late at this point and I didn’t know how to handle it other than to keep quiet and try to forget about it.
Ok, that could be true. I assumed they meant the “building” phase that some frameworks go through.
Except… the compilation step doesn’t add type safety to JS.
As an aside, type safety hasn’t been something I truly miss in JS, despite how often it’s mentioned.
The mass of the visible universe is apparently enough to make a black hole with an event horizon ten times larger than the visible universe’s. I don’t understand how that hasn’t happened already, but apparently it just doesn’t look like it’s happened (“unless…”).
Pulls deeply on the cigarette, stomps it out and then waves the pistol’s barrel towards a dark corner of the room.

I just funged it. You’ll never get me, coppers.
You meant to type 32, but by putting a full stop after it makes it look like “1.” on a lot of clients because of markup interpretation.
Have you considered that you may be a hallucinating AI yourself?.. Quick, try drawing a full glass of wine!
You should try tea that isn’t shocked… Green tea is especially bitter and unpleasant if the water’s too hot. The recommended temperature is 80°C, if I remember right.
But even black tea tastes less bitter if you use slightly rested water after boiling (and if you remove the teabag without squeezing it out). You’re probably used to teas being astringent, but they don’t have to be. They can be smooth and “rounded” and rich.
That’s a great way to make the air inside the teabag expand but not be able to escape through the wet paper, making the teabag float on top of the water like a confused little fish that just escaped a dentist’s aquarium.
I had the same question, and only seeing this image cleared it up for me:
I.e. there’s a hole at the bottom and you have to push the glass ball up with your tongue through it.
Redirects queries for “reddit.com” in your url bar towards your own computer. And unless you literally are reddit, you won’t reply to yourself, the result being that you’ve blocked the website for yourself.
EDIT: I prefer to use 0.0.0.0 instead, so I’ll continue to ignore myself even if I do become Reddit in the future. Gotta be cautious.
