Had a nice little #motorcycle ride down to Walter Hill Dam. With the park here, I almost wish I had brought the dogs, but then I definitely wouldn't have been able to enjoy the ride.

Late last night I stumbled upon pinning recipes in @duneawakening.com by pressing `y` while hovering over a schematic in a fabricator. Looks like the feature isn't quite done, or was put on hold? I imagine it might've been conceived as providing a resource overlay?

Just a heads up, Reacher got to be where he is by fighting and surviving in the Hunger Games, nearly 12 years ago. Don't ever give up, keep pushing even when you're think you're heading for certain death.

No, I'm saying that the only time that function would actually work as you're describing is if you are using it in the same scope in which you're declaring `undefined` as a local variable. So the screenshot before returns `false` but this screenshot is the *only* circumstance where it returns true

Except shadowing `undefined` as a local variable and then passing it into your `isUndefined` method still returns `false` unless `isUndefined` and your `undefined` variable are declared in the same scope. Under any practical instance `isUndefined` would return false (see screenshot)

@hipstersmoothie.com Alas it would seem the web developers feed may be down? I've gotten the graze.social rate-limited error before, especially during peak hours, but the current one is of a different beast (unless graze is experiencing a broader outage)

Me watching the interaction, happy to see a good manager - engineer relationship

Can I interest you in spreadsheets, in space?

You definitely don't want this. Outlook supports this and its pretty awkward feeling, on both sides of the equation. The use-case kind of makes sense...and perhaps with time it will normalize (and support by other email clients will grow) but at present its just...weird.

Client is having issues with webRTC solution for some specific calls.

Me: pulls up networking stats from the console for the calls in question
Me: sees a participant with an issue
Me: How is someone screwing up network topology this badly? ~25% packet loss rate? This is - I believe - a new facility

Printing a raptor (its really a Deinonychus) for my wife to use with Elf on the Shelf tomorrow at school, hopefully the print goes as expected. I do not have high hopes

Obviously results that turn up when searching (notably trying to tie an Audio to an AudioContext and then using promises to check for success/failure) doesn't actually work anymore. The promises always succeed so being able to detect that sound is being blocked just...doesn't seem possible?

This must have been what my parents felt like when I was a teenager.

I'm still convinced it is an awful design for a vehicle, especially a truck. But can it be interesting? Absolutely

Ah yes, the best late night drink

A great little app, keep practicing, its mostly not cheating your form and getting to the point where you typing words doesn't require any thought as to where the individual keys are!

I'm a bad sample, probably, I loved keyboard and was taking it at school starting around middle school? You got it!

Auggie is helping me work. You can see how much he's contributing. Also I'm going to have to replace my office chair

Haven't had much time to view yet this year, but before I head to bed I figure you all might enjoy my favorite picture of the moon, captured with my phone through a 4.5" Orion Starblast telescope.

Having to cut my toaster strudel icing with scissors because the perforation is clearly too close to the sidewalls. Sheesh it's like I have to do ALL the work

Watching the Broncos / Falcons game while I work; nowadays there's "pushing the pile" and then there's this...lol he's not even touching the ground!

And after all that bread making, I'm a little peckish... So what do I get to eat? That's right! Stir fried ramen 😂

Now it's break breaking time!

(I'm done now, I promise)
