From what I gather, there is some kind of seasonal thing that happens around this time of year where folks re-up their leases or something, and that requires a short term cash infusion? 🤷‍♂️

Honestly, I was hoping someone here could explain it to me.

@markusbarth Du hast den zweiten Typen vergessen, der dem ersten das Geld in den Hintern pustet um unseren Staat zu zersetzen, das er von ebendiesem Staat bekommen hat.

Für eine Live-Demonstration von Anti-Kernkraft-Schwurbelreflexen braucht man nur Daten zu präsentieren:

Das ist eine Art umgedrehtes Cunningham's Law.

Here's 3 #git operations that don't exist / aren't completely trivial (== < 60 seconds) to script. I'm posting them so you all can tell me they do exist so I don't have to spend longer :)

1) discard all whitespace changes in the working tree, preserving all other changes
2) reorder the `git stash` entries without manual popping / pushing
3) given N branches, fast forward all of them so that they all end up at the same combined HEAD with changes from all N branches on it

Polyglot Insult Bot - PIB - and #CunninghamsLaw Polyglot Insult Bot - CLPIB:

PIB:
a bot that sources and translates one insulting statement into multiple languages using imperfect software translation, with links to sites offering pronunciation.

CLPIB:
bot that follows PIB and watches its replies. When grammarians argue for better translations resulting in a consensus, CLPIB insults PIB in reply.

After a delay PIB then accepts this erratum, posting to give a correct translation.

I can't believe nobody has solved the “Copy an emoji from one slack to another" problem yet. #CunninghamsLaw

@abnv "The best way to get the right answer on the Internet is not to ask a question, it's to post the wrong answer. This is called Godwin's Law."
In that spirit, don't ask for reviews; post your draft and call it the best thing ever written. Then wait for the comments to pour in.
