How does one determine which kind of soup to use for this?

Pretty sure Tom Hanks himself has mentioned he doesn’t understand why it’s so popular.

[SOFTWARE REQUEST] Core for new API in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Try and get the current stack running locally or in a dev environment. Add a “hello world” route - call it and see what happens - iterate.

There are certainly times that you come into a situation that requires a new service. But it shouldn’t be your first inclination. A lot of software development is supporting legacy/other’s code.

Do the new requirements require information from the current database/codebase?

I know this is obvious – but I also don’t want to have to purchase a printer to print out up to date proof of insurance.

My current plan is to just hand over the old/expired copy. Or I have to go through attempting to remember how to display a card from your Apple Wallet while it remains locked.

I need laugh tracks so I know when to laugh.

You build the new API routes and all in the existing stack – slap the hood, then say – “that’ll hold”.

This is the kind of marketing I would falsify when no one has heard of my game. (Apologies to any diehard fans of this game that I might have offended – I’ve never heard of it.)

Eh, consider selling and diversifying if you’re ever in this situation. (Not working for Trump Media – but an IPO after lockup expires.)

American Employee: What Constitutes A Resignation (reddthat.com)
 

A sudden exodus of employees is causing leadership to panic and suddenly puts me under a microscope with questions like:

  • Are you going to leave?
  • What can we do to keep you from leaving?
  • Do you see yourself here in 1 year?

These are all semi valid questions to ask in the best interest of the company. But I’m curious how this information could be used.

This all got me thinking – at what point could – “no - I don’t see myself in a year” be used as a resignation with a 1 year notice – and then terminated after ~3 months and be ineligible for unemployment since you “technically” resigned.

Easily Access Browser In Big Picture? (reddthat.com)
 

I assume the answer is currently no and can probably survive with alt tabbing around.

In the old version of Big Picture you could bring up a browser in the Steam overlay while playing mid game. This allowed for quickly accessing online references and even bookmarking online guides etc.

I’m aware of accessing Steam guides and notes - and these are great features. But is there a way to easily access online information while playing?

Is there a push to make product containers re-usable? (reddthat.com)
 

I’m looking at an empty bottle of Valentina hot sauce. It has a flip top cap but is not twist off and seems to be press fitted on in some way - ideally there would be a way to easily remove it and re-purpose the container or at least clean it out for recycling.

With some recent legislation in some countries to standardize USB-C it got me wondering if there are pushes elsewhere or if maybe it’s just my country just hasn’t caught up on things.

Is it possible to combine Bluetooth audio connections to one headset? (reddthat.com)

I frequently wear a pair of Bluetooth headphones paired to a computer. If I want to listen to something on my phone I have to re-pair the device to my phone.

Is it possible, through software or hardware, to have both my phone and computer connected in such a way that I can get audio output from either device to my headset simultaneously.

Do you tilt your head when approaching others? (reddthat.com)
 

You’re walking along a path and another person approaches from the opposite direction.

Do you tilt your head to signify which direction around them you intend to go? Is that head tilt understood by others?

Should we start pointing also?
