sed harbors no demon beasts, in my experience.
On the other hand, by default using sed -i is where the demons come in.
No, sed, NOT in place. Not the first time. Show me what you want to do based on the instructions I gave you, and then we’ll talk about letting you play with the real data.
Seems like it would be a nightmare to purify. Perhaps useful for agricultural applications, but for drinking and household use…. Most water supplies don’t have e.g., human bodies floating in them.
Not a scientist, happy to be proven wrong here, but that’s my gut.
Digging my Mirage. Low-key cheap, simple display that integrates well w/ phone, and 40+ MPG.
Also easy to paddle shift into “oh fuck” mode, which burns more gas but gets me out of some hairy situations when AC is running.
Would prefer a hybrid, but this is the car the numbers worked out on in a sane way. I tried hypermiling in a Prius 1G (99, I think) on both a KY parkway and I24, and it sorta worked but was a huge PITA as well. Context, US 41 thru Evansville, Parkway, 24. Not terrible for the time at all, but a bit stressful here and there.
Are you seeing a family doctor, or a sleep specialist? You want the latter, and a sleep study.
The classes of drugs that might help are imperfect at best, I’d be partial to a benzo before e.g., Ambien or related, given the inherent risks of sleepwalking and worse with those drugs.
Sweatpants, and old t-shirts or polo shirts if there’s a video call planned for a given day. I WFH for a company you’ve heard of, and all the video calls in question are internal.
I still can’t cook, but my wife definitely taught me that I’m allowed to have feelings; And most everything I know about expressing those feelings without being a complete asshole and without going straight from calm to rant-y.
There was a time when paperwork and such was defensible.
Now, if carriers had a lick of sense, they’d realize that forms are dirt cheap online; and that it’s drastically less expensive just to pay the claim vs fighting it.
They don’t, of course, because mergers and sole-source pharmacies for “scary” meds, but that’s neither here nor there.
Whole idea of PBMs is wrong, offensive, and has set back my care. Know who should manage my pharmacy benefits, my fucking doctor. Full stop.
You are assuming they get healthcare. Dangerous assumption these days, as the ACA has been carved down.
This is fucked up.
Affordable childcare, and living wages for those providing it, would mark a sea change in our system.
But letting parents believe it actually costs anywhere near that much to provide childcare - even considering overhead - is a crime.
Are you alternating? Or combining?
Watermelon and salt sounds perfectly sane to me because chemistry.
Tortillas, fruit, and chili doesn’t make sense to me, but I’ve appropriated a ton of foods that “just work” to me so…. I get it nonetheless.
That’s a bullshit question, and distance can help with the stalking.
M here, carefully manipulated by an F abuser, so I understand at least some of it. Not your lived exp of course, but no one is immune.
The only women who should be hit are the women who actively consent to it, and the language surrounding it.
I met my wife because she actively lied on the internet about a thing that was important, but the die was cast.
There’s a certain high in that lashing out that’s tough to let go of. I feel you.
I wish that I could explain how I came to handle that stuff better, truth is I haven’t a clue. I just knew I’d come too far to risk losing what I have over anger of all things.
No shade, that’s cool. IDGAF what you look like once I know you, and that you are in tune with the emotion of the situation.
Paraphrasing a folk singer I respect here, but “I used to cry when needed, I can’t cry for the life of me anymore as an adult.”
Tears communicate that either I’ve fucked up, or there’s something I legit misunderstood, and I need to take a step back.
In some ways, I envy your ability to do that. Professional me doesn’t scree around, personal me rather wishes I could cry it out once in a while.
I’ve spent a lifetime fixing my inclination to escalate at the first sign of conflict, and…. It’s been brutal. I’m thrilled to mostly be gentle these days, but it still requires work.
You never gave into the BS.
Thank you for the TL;dw. Sincerely appreciated.
We moved from the Capital District of NY - which i loved - to the Midwest where my wife is from because money goes about three times as far here and I was still making NY money at the time.
Lots I miss from “back east generally, but not the prices.
I would have spelled that, “pay for my fountain pens and ink, and let me talk to my wife while she’s conscious,” but we are on same page.
Got caught young and “encouraged” into a stupid amount of hours so the boss could go fuck off. Won’t make that mistake again. WFH or not, if you expect 60+ a week, you can kiss my ass.
While that’s getting harder - RTO vibe is strong - I’m on same page.
I’ve had to pass on a few interesting opportunities, but Its served me well.
If I go out, it’s because I need something that can’t be shipped or door dashed, and/or it’s imprudent to pay the vig for delivery.
2x $4.99 bottles of wine? Yeah not paying $40 for that, I’ll take the risk.
Working on that POV, it’s basically always worth paying the vig to minimise my human interaction.
Edit: have WFH since c. 2012, so it makes zero sense to take the medical and driving risk to do otherwise, except for gig work in a pinch.
Demanding hybrid (“hybrid in Arizona”) is a clear sign the company is working towards RTO, and you’d have to wave a pretty big carrot to get me to move quickly anyway. OOP max met for the year, so…
Now that I’m $7k in on that stuff, why the hell would I make a move in May? I’ll suffer until the Sept deadline and peak season we suffer through, and then start looking.
Well, I’ll start looking before that, demo my loyalty by pushing out start date, and go from there. Like everyone else.
Wouldn’t cry if nothing else presents though, it’s not terrible company given that it’s non-union. Damn, I miss the CWA, but I was maybe twenty at the time and didn’t grasp the value fully.
PolicyCancelledByCarrier
If canx notice has been received, processed, blah blah, eventually it’s set to true.
If/when a reinstatement is received, set to false.
Zero ambiguity, something along that line saved my tail when working with devs in different countries with different insurance customs.
Carrier sent letter telling policy holder to get bent because “fuck you, pay me?” Field is true.
Otherwise, or with reinstatement letter, field true.
Pharm tech licensing varies wiiiiidely across the states. Some require natl very, some require basically on job training IIRC.
RPh not so much, but tech also has responsibility not to kill you with a misfill and more eyes are always good for preventing deaths.
The shit wages they pay in relation to being responsible in part for safety and accuracy (in retail) is a big part of why most retail is dangerously understaffed.
Same for insurance agents and real estate agents in many (most?) of US. HS, a couple weeks of “teaching to the test,” and a test is all it takes. Rote memorisation. - lots of those younger folks in insurance couldn’t define what they may/may not say/promise, or who is an “Insured” under a given policy.
