  1. a question

    I want to find all pizza parlors in Portland, OR....in 2015

    Is there a way to query ? or another resource?

  2. I switched pharmacies and got a different(?) med generic.

    Maybe it's just because I was off it for a few days, but this generic is smoooooth.

    Looking back, it's been much worse since I was forced to switch to . I'm never going back, even if it's a much longer drive.

  3. In the Aesop parable of the North Wind and the Sun, updates are North Wind while updates are the Sun.

    Microsoft, you wouldn't have to push updates SO HARD if people didn't feel threatened by them.

    But with every security patch you also change UIs or break file formats so of course people avoid them.

    Then you get a mindset that updates are hard so you put even MORE breaking changes into them and make the update deadlines shorter and people hate and avoid them more.

    Be like Debian. Decouple bug fixes and feature updates into different paths.

  4. Is it possible the solution was right there all along??

    I've been on-and-off tweaking the project to include routing

    I kept finding that routing takes longer to figure out than pure packing--no surprise.

    But this was even the case when the constraints put on the routing were extremely minimal.

    This made me wonder how much actual optimization was happening in the NON-routing case. As it turns out, none. If it doesn't have to do any work, it goes fast.

    Sounds pretty obvious, but it's very helpful. Why? See next toot.

  5. For lengthy bureaucratic reasons you don't want to know about, I'm trying to avoid adding a dependency to my project.

    Is there a relatively straightforward way to open a /#truststore *without* adding a package?

    I would almost prefer to system('keytool....') than add a package.
