#three, is a #MagicNumber. Well, all numbers are #magic. You can take a number, and give it any #meaning you want it to have. We can't define the value of #three, as it's well-defined. But we can give a set with three elements a meaning, such as all things that come in three are magical. Find the magic in your #life.

Nice! ❤️💕
A leap year check in three instructions https://hueffner.de/falk/blog/a-leap-year-check-in-three-instructions.html #magic #magicnumber #optimization #programming
N.B. In reality, it's more than just 3 CPU instructions, more like 4 or more, but it's still quite neat.

@matoo @Davidistooting Et les KPI ça permet ensuite de diriger des boîtes sans rien comprendre à leur vrai boulot et de juste s'appuyer sur des chiffres "neutre" et donc de faire passer ce que tu veux comme décision managériale à la con tant que ça fait monter le KPI.
Size does not matter… sauf le KPI.
J'ai vu des horreurs être faites sur l'autel de cette idole moderne par des mecs qui comprennaient ni ce qu'on vendaient, ni ce qu'on faisait. ni même pourquoi on bossait.

I mentioned a couple weeks ago that one of @druidess' coworkers is kickstarting a party card game called Magic Number that we're backing-- it's almost to its goal and is only 6 days away now from ending.
I'll do one final post the day before it ends or around there- even just a boost is appreciated, or tagging others who may be into it.
And thanks to everyone who has checked it out/backed it so far! 😀

One of @druidess' coworkers is kickstarting a party card game called Magic Number. If any of you card game fans want to check it and help out, that would be amazing.
They're halfway to their goal and have just 25 days left. Even just a boost is appreciated, or tagging others who may be into it-- every little bit helps! 😀
