    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Talked to one of my old coworkers recently. She is cool but a complete airhead and worked in HR. Also a complete and total whore as her side hobby. Anywho today she is a "Staff Workday Analyst" at some company. I don't really care but it did kind of annoy me that braindead HR positions are...

    Chinese fantasy. Like actual Chinese fantasy literature called Wuxia as a genre. China did not take on the whole wizards and warriors in the sense that we do in the West. Good old Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon is essentially a Wuxia fantasy.

    I think Sky Pride does a good job of using the Cultivator setting. The Direct Disciples (as the series calls them) and Sect Masters don't really care about earthly affairs and are loathe to involve themselves unless they are completely forced to for whatever reason. This being a driving element...

    I would use a stainless steel pan. This is what old French chefs would use and it's grown on me. You have to oil it, then butter it, each time or it is more prone to sticking though. Not sure what you gain from low heat eggs though. A "normal" high heat French Omelette cooks in less than 90...

    Console modding... Breathing new life into an XBOX360 with Aurora

    One of my coworkers bought this thing: https://www.analogue.co/3d Kind of cool I guess. The professional tech nerd community has gotten deep into this trend of physically owning their media and games. So they actually want the cartridges now. It applies to Bluray and whatever else too.

    Bro wtf do you do to your cast irons? This is one of mine. They all look like this. You can tell just by how rough your iron is that its not fully seasoned at all. Mine started out like that but are smooth from so much seasoning and constant use. Eggs never stick to them anymore. When you have...

    I don't really eat out much these days. But I thank God that you can find a Mexican taqueria in every single gas station in Texas. The one i hit up also makes tortillas on site, the whole nine. It's hard to fuck up a breakfast taco, but still. They're better than anything from McDonald's or...

    Really. Fromsoft games have a certain aesthetic and style. Even with all of their success they still maintain them. Either you learn to enjoy their archaic menus and game style or you don't. Once you get used to it I find it great. The gameplay speaks for itself and is fun. But to each your own.

    It has to be 40k Corpse Starch or something. It would also lean into the alien aspect as they are utilitarian and just need nutrients. Personal tastes are irrelevant.

    I have been in exactly 2 car accidents in my life. Both in Austin, Texas. Both times I was not at fault and both times I was hit by an illegal without insurance. Yet I pay like $220 a month total for insurance on my wife's car and mine.

    What did you just read?

    After seeing that trailer I read the first few books of the Pendragon cycle. While interesting going to have to drop it. While I do indeed love all fantasy when it comes to Arthurian legend and its retellings nothing beats The Once and Future King. So I just can't get into it. I did like the...

    Be real. What's going to happen is that every actor with any agency is going to cooperate in kicking the can down the road until its not possible to do so anymore. Implicitly choosing catastrophe every time. Just like in every other similar scenario.

    I absolutely hate gratin and scalloped potatoes. It's the one potato dish I avoid. I think my mom just made it some disgusting way when I was a kid all the time which has now become a core memory. Some kind of boxed gratin thing.

    I'll probably just sell it in some years then. My current tenant expressed a desire to be there long term. If they want to just buy it in a year or three I will just do that.

    Yeah it's becoming more common around here. I don't see too much of a downside doing this and I don't need the full equity immediately or anything so making interest on rent, effectively, and removing my duty to repair and whatnot seems pretty nice...

    Okay I begrudgingly admit you are right. That squash is tasty and it is better than butternut. My dumbass family wont eat it though. But they don't even like butternut or any other squash.

    Odd question. But have any of you nerds sold a home and financed the sale yourself? I am looking into doing this in the next year or so as it will secure a long term revenue from my old house and I can simply use it for other things. I don't want to hold onto it forever.

    They are called TROPES for a reason. But why doesn't it work on Carol if it also destroyed the alien homeworld of humanoids?
