  1. Kürzlich habe ich einen Artikel gelesen, in dem es um Fragen in einem Vorstellungsgespräch als Java-Entwickler ging. Es wurden einige Fragen vorgestellt und die These aufgestellt, dass die meisten Bewerber diese Fragen nicht beantworten können. Aus diesem Grund möchte ich in dieser Serie auf die

  4. Oh lol. I needed to shut the cats in the living room. They just ate, so no treats, and I'm too damn tired to figure out another way to tempt them in - so I just went in and started waving my hands and calling out: "I'm doing something interesting! I'm doing something interesting!"

    It worked. 😂

  5. Allò que et fiques en una app d’intercanvi d’idiomes i després de 3 dies l’altra persona et pregunta si ets vegà i al respondre afirmativament et respon que va en contra dels seus principis i et deixa de parlar #real #literal #veganpatience

  7. @W6KME

    I know you meant both radio (ham), and telling people (cat out of bag), but I swear my first reading was letting a literal cat out of a carrying case at a meeting involving the pig-based food substance.

    That was a very different mental picture.

    Perhaps I should not operate the link clicking machine before coffee.

  8. Autistic tidbits…

    Disclaimer: this post reflects my experiences with "my" autism. I use phrases like that, "my autism" as it defines me and my way of thinking and doing things. I do not wish to offend anyone with my language and choice of words. Also, English isn't my native language, so I am sometimes a bit limited when I try to find the right words to describe a feeling or exeperience. I am no expert, I write solely about me and my life in this post. If you find any of this offensive, then I am sorry. But we all experience our "NeuroSpicy-ness" in different ways, and this is how I experience mine. Thanks for understanding. Living as an autistic person, or "with autism", is different for every one of us. Sure, we have overlapping bits and bops, we understand things about each other that Neurodivergent people don't get as easily as we do. But our spicy-ness is on a spectrum, or so they say, and it had many different tastes and flavors. And sometimes, something happens that I don't realize at the time, which will later turn out to be a "fine example" of my kind of spicy... 🌶️ […]

  9. Actually playing with #phlex and #literal in #ruby on #rails and it feels awesome. Rock solid gems !

  10. If you demand the creation account be literal, you must conclude that Adam and Eve were literally walking around with their eyes shut until they disobeyed.

    Or do you agree that this is figurative language?

  11. This has been a problem for me all my life. When I ask for clarification on ambiguous questions/assignments, I've been called a smartass or a dumbass and am chided for not understanding the obvious. I've been called a disturber or told to use my brain. It's left me paranoid and wondering if subconsciously I am doing this on purpose. A lifetime of gaslighting.

    The same thing goes when people use synecdoche and I think they're being literal. As an example, years ago, my in-laws, a military family, were talking about war and said "when we were in the Middle East." Confused, I said, "oh, I hadn't realized you lived there too."

    This made them blow up at me because apparently I was supposed to know the "we" meant the Canadian military in general, and not my in-laws.

  12. "I would like to throw my hat into the ring."

    "Go ahead!"

    "What?"

    "Go ahead! Take your hat, and throw it into the ring."

    "But this was a figure of speech!"

    "I took it literally."

    "Yes, I see that."

    "Hmm... what do I say now?"

    "Er... I don't know."

    "I think the author is high."

    "You might be right, oh giraffe!"
