Manslaughter charges for the baby if childbirth kills the mother

Hot take, how sad it is that content on the phone is so addictive you'd forget your baby's in the bathtub. Perfect way to hijack the mind of a tired new mother.

I approve this.

I've used one in paris. Had to put .50 euro in the coin slot on the door in order to get in and stand over a hole in the floor.

I'll carry the odd opinion here and say there's actually a way this could be useful. You have to add value to a product to make it worth your time and effort, increase adoption, and make it at least self-sustainable. Find reasons to justify why this should exist. For a start - This could save time on projects where similar data has to be loaded on a page from multiple api endpoints but it doesn't match. - an old example, but one that I fought once - looking up the time zone of a city from one api, then the time offset from UTC from another api, and trying to relate it all together. That meant my functions had to match that data up on the client side because there were imperfect text matches.

As a second example, if you were able to cache or keep record of data from upstream endpoints that often takes a while to gather because they can't/won't, you might offer a performance advantage or datasets which were previously unavailable to a user without monitoring data coming from that API over an extended period of time.

There's more you can do, but that hinges again on what I previously said, find your pitch and solve problems that the others have created and won't fix.

I'm cool with this, I don't need these articles telling me about musk/zucc/spez running the old platforms into the ground anymore. It's stuck in the past and ragebait. I think it's best to look forward. Walking away from old platforms completely means not letting them live rent-free in our heads anymore.

Is this the borg coming to assimilate us?

Check out the Sniper Elite series. The most recent games have a good, challenging, and engaging Stealth mechanic to them.

I'm reminded of a time I found myself using an open source tool on github and finding it severely out of date on sources of information it was using to operate. I made a fork, spent a few hours updating, committed that code and put in a pull request with the original developer so they could merge it back into their original. 5 Years later, no response. 🤣

People abandon projects for various reasons or only work with the scarce free time they have. You may find someone interested in a healthy competition, but it might be more likely they back off when they see someone pick up the torch and do what they no longer can.

A fox sounds like a woman or child screaming in the night. It's a very unsettling sound to hear.

Coyotes have a very high pitched dog-like sound. Typically I've always heard them in groups yipping and howling, almost like a group laughing type of sound.
