He’s richer than Jay-Z, Taylor Swift, and Bruce Springsteen combined. From selling their music and paying them peanuts.

Me too. Can’t remember why?

Everyone talking casually like he’s not literally 100 years old! Guy fought the Battle of the Bulge in 1944, for chrissakes.

I studied IQ tests for a bit and scored 155 on the MENSA exam in the 1990s. Never took another one and I’m sticking with that forever.

I have no problem with Linux, but I’m worried that the 50 or so applications I’ve installed will not be compatible. And saying there’s a Linux alternative doesn’t fill me with hope, usually I’ll have tried and discarded 10 other programs just to get one that acts how I want.

Do you just try and describe what it tastes like?

James Connolly and Jim Larkin would be horrified.

I’m not even sure what dinner toast is. How does OP combine all those? Is he making a quiche?

I think I remember finding an option to dim that.

Commenting just to get my name out there.

How about when they come for the next $1,000 not having paid back the first?

There is an Irish rural accent that pronounces it AY-ther.

Me too. Out of interest do you pronounce it ‘gif’ as well?

I record meetings of my building’s board of management, nothing secret there, very mundane. I run it through Whisper and give the transcript to ChatGPT. It condenses everything into accurate minutes, resolutions and action items. Saves me a shit ton of work, finished in seconds. I’m never going back!

Floorp has been good to me.

I actually love that James swears like a soldier. Don’t know why exactly.

Thinking about it, I would be equally happy to learn Matt swears and James doesn’t. Must be something about the ‘insider’ information!

That’s how YOU say it. Personally, I would say the 10th of March, the 2nd of June. But then, I’m not American.

And literally the most famous programming joke, I would wager.

The way the book was explained to me, if your dad is a working stiff he’ll just tell you to work hard at whatever high paying job you can get. If your dad is a high finance type of guy, he’ll show you that the real money is in managing money.

Good concept, and true I guess. The book is useless though!

I actually liked The Fountainhead. Rugged, taciturn individualist architect slowly overcomes all the scheming poseurs. It appealed to the younger me anyway. I didn’t pick up on any deeper message at the time and this was pre-internet so I didn’t have a clue who Ayn Rand was.
