To me, “free album” is like a person handing out free CD’s on a busy sidewalk.
This is more like my landlord going into my living room and putting a CD on my shelf.
(Now someone will tell me about how my analogy is flawed, I don’t care, that’s how analogies work. It’s not the same, it’s an analogy.)
You are saying what I’m saying, and what everybody else is saying. But with a tone of defending it, as if it can’t be better.
Don’t give any customer your “trash pile”. Either take the time to do it right, or throw away the trashpile, or accept that customers feels like people are saying they feel.
Don’t make up excuses, the things you say you won’t do is not what is needed.
Things are done very, very differently here than most places.
Maybe that’s the problem. Everybody else has figured it out. I know you can’t change that, but lots of people could if they wanted to.
If I have a strip of, say, 10 pills, 2 rows of 5, and I get a prescription for 6 pills, that means I’m gonna have a strip of 4 pills left over. If I get a prescription for 9 pills, there’s gonna be a single one left over. Do you want these pills to just be thrown away?
Order of 6 pills - give a 3x2, you now have a 2x2.
Order 9 pills - give the 2x2 and a 1x5, you now have a 1x5.
I see your problem, but I don’t see how that can turn into “a 10x1, a 4x1, a 2x1 and another 2x1” as your best choice. That looks like he got the left-over-pile after a day of ever order getting from a new pack.
Honestly, I don’t know why you even have to open a package. I’ve never seen that, and I’ve been in some long pharmacy queues. Never been to US though.
If I need exactly 10 pills, I get a box with 10 pills, packed in a factory like any other box of pills.
This alone is enough for me, to consider Windows a bad choise.
I’ve said that line so many times.
Then I misread it. He seemed like he expected a beginner-friendly experience.
If he is experienced, and use Debian as an example of how Linux is not beginner-friendly, then he must be trolling.
Debian was not a great choise, it is not for beginners. I wonder why you chose that one.
If you want to try again, I recommend using a distribution that is recommended for beginners. For example Ubuntu.
I’m from Denmark. Most people here are middle class.
It is common to own a vacation house here, if that is your interest.
Owning a business is also very common here, you gotta make a living somehow. And sure, if you manufacture something, why not export.
I don’t know how common it is to go on 5 star hotels here. I don’t really look at the stars. But if the cheapest available hotel that fit my needs happens to be 5 star, then that’s where I go.
I’m definitely not rich here.
Really? It seems to me that wherever I go they use the same plug*, and I can charge with my debit card. (Except one place in Germany, but I think it was an error in the payment system.)
Yes, there’s technically two different plugs, but they go in the same socket in my car. It just that the fast ones have a larger plug.
The problem is that some of them are much cheaper if you have the right card, but I believe the most expensive ones are still cheaper than fueling an ICE car.
Yeah, that seems like a much bigger problem.
I haven’t read it, but it could be to demonstrate how easy it was to identify it as a fake, without the ressources of BBC.
Yes, there it obviously means “no parking”. You were complaing about the little bits between the parking spots. Right?
I don’t see the problem. Don’t park outside the marked area. Red line is reminding you, because lots of people think the marked rectangle is a suggestion.
Doesn’t that just mean “stay within the lines”? Which you probably must do anyway, so it’s just a reminder?
You still can’t blame the word.
You lost me at “bailiff”. You are overthinking the analogy.
I see why you want to avoid the word at YOUR workplace. But the problem is your workplace, not the word.
I like to call it “debt”, because it’s a problem that grows while you ignore it. Worst case, it becomes easier to start over than fixing it. But getting 100% rid of it isn’t good business either.
Like all other analogies, don’t overthink it. I don’t now what “involuntary liquidation” would mean for tech debt. Unless you mean the product won’t run for a significant amount of time due to overwhelming tech debt, which can absolutely happen.
True, I didn’t think that far back.
Who does? What kind of objects?
“Share economy” seems bigger than ever to me. Just a few years ago it wasn’t even a thing.
This is such an odd post. So many details that are highly debatable, not many important details.
For example, is the egg refrigerated or room temperature? That changes the timing a lot. Talking about accurate timing is pointless without at least some idea of the initial temperature.
I don’t use a ice bath, or any kind of cooling down for hardboiled eggs. I don’t really have a problem peeling them, unless they are very fresh.
I own my data. I own my installation. That’s what I care about.
Why would I want to own the hardware, when it’s in an inaccessible building far away.
In my country, free schools are not an expense, we profit on it.
Whatever money we spend on an education, will on average come back twice in the form of increased income tax. Plus of course the other values of living in a well educated society.
So taking a free education is not society subsidizing you, you are doing society a favor.
