I thought keychron used qmk, does it not?

At some point those businesses need workers. It doesn’t matter if you’re selling b2b 500 companies deep, at the end there’s a human buying a product and there’s humans building that product.

I think you’re both right, but this is a great reason for ISO8601. This weekend is the weekend in the current week. In most of the world it’s Monday-Sunday which makes this way clearer, in which case he would have said “next weekend” and you would be completely correct, but if you’re in a country that starts on a Sunday then “this weekend” is two things. Sunday and Saturday, with 5 days in between. Since you were already in part of the two parter you could only be referring to the next part, the upcoming Saturday, part of this week.

This doesn’t make sense from a linguistics standpoint though. So next Thursday is the Thursday this week, but next week isn’t this week, it’s the week after this one. So what’s the Thursday in that week, the next next Thursday? It just doesn’t work.

Anything in this week (Sunday-Saturday or Monday-Sunday) even stuff from a few days ago -> this <day of the week>.

Anything from last week -> last <dotw>

Anything in next week -> next <dotw>

It’s incredibly simple and it’s logically consistent and it works in every situation unless you are talking to someone from a different country that uses a different starting day. And even then it works the majority of the time.

If next was the next occurrence of the day you’d be saying “next Wednesday on a Tuesday” and be talking about tomorrow, which is frankly ludicrous. I’ve also never heard anyone use a rolling week for “this” and this is such a funny conversation to come up because I literally had this confusion last Sunday (not this previous Sunday, as in yesterday, also note that this lines up well with using “last week”), because I was talking with several Venezuelans, a Chilean, a Mexican, and a Salvadoran, along with some Americans and this exact confusion came up but not because it was a rolling week, or because next means the next occurrence, but because they considered the week to start on Monday, not Sunday. So “this Thursday” meant the previous Thursday, since it was part of that week. Next Thursday meant the coming Thursday (the part of the next week).

I mention the nationalities because it’s pretty uncommon to start a week on a Sunday like Americans do.

Weirdly I looked it up and the internet says those countries start their weeks on Monday but that sure wasn’t what the people I talked to thought. 🤷

The rule makes perfect sense (and is how I’ve always used it), but this article actually misses a major point which I just learned last week when talking to some native Spanish speakers. In most English speaking countries, the week starts on Sunday. This isn’t the case for many, many other countries though. So saying “this Friday” on a Sunday really really confuses people. That’s exactly what happened to me last week because it was a Sunday and we were talking about a Friday and she got very very confused.

While having studies is important, this is completely obvious if you think about it for more than a few minutes. AI replaces workers, workers lose jobs and can’t buy food, therefore products that ai is creating can’t be bought, therefore those companies collapse, et al.

What a crazy video

Context matters. Turns out when you tell stories you kinda have to read the whole thing rather than just snippets.

You can make that 6/7 (my wife and I).

Ah I actually knew rat poison was bad because it killed predators but didn’t know there were different kinds. Thank you

I do think it’s a bad idea. I’ve heard of too many people finding out after they get married that they are completely sexually incompatible. It’s very hard to get past that.

But waiting a long time in the relationship to have sex is probably a very good idea. It can be one of the last few boundaries.

I’ve read the article too and it also just seems badly designed. Their “storage costs” are most likely due to short s3 file lifetimes and so they’re literally just getting killed on storage for no reason. If they rented VPS space across the planet and just used normal hard drives their costs would likely drop instantaneously.

I’m not who you are talking to originally, but as lot of that is just kinda nonsense. They say they can’t have their own servers in DCs around the world cause it would cost too much…. But it wouldn’t, that’s just incorrect. They’re clearly spending 1.3 million on s3 data and the short file lifetime is killing them. If they just bought drive capacity and hosted on VPSes around the world they’d likely have a much much smaller bill. Yeah it sounds scary, but they’re already doing scary stuff.

Is it really that different between neighboring countries? I’ve seen job listings for 170 in the Netherlands and Switzerland.

Literally the exact word I was going to post as I came in here. Weird.

Good lord calling banished chill is insane haha. It has to be one of the hardest city builders me or my wife have ever played.

Yeah but you can pause if you want. As long as it’s single player.

What are SGARs?
