They just really wanted to release on 9/9/99 no matter what.

Usually NYT sets a cookie to track how many free articles you read and once you exceed that, you get the paywall. The bots probably don’t set/send the cookies, so NYT doesn’t block them. Also, I’d imagine the bots are coming from various different IPs so even server side blocking based on IP wouldn’t block everything and eventually the bot would get to the article. User Agents can also be spoofed.
How is this different from Factorio?
The sad truth is with the two party system, you don’t vote for who you think is better, you vote against who you think is worse. A vote for Biden rejects Trump getting a second term.
How long until Trump claims that he was wrongfully convicted of 34 felonies because of his political speech and not because of falsifying business records to cover up an affair with a pornstar?
You eat pieces of shit for breakfast, you piece of shit?
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
I manage a stack like this, we have dedicated hardware running a steady state of backend processing, but scale into AWS if there’s a surge in realtime processing needed and we don’t have the hardware. We also had an outage in our on prem datacenter once which was expensive for us (I assume an insurance claim was made), but scaling to AWS was almost automatic, and the impact was minimal for a full datacenter outage.
If we wanted to optimize even more, I’m sure we could scale into Azure depending on server costs when spot pricing is higher in AWS. The moral of the story is to not get too locked into any one provider and utilize some of the abstraction layers so that AWS, Azure, etc are just targets that you can shop around for by default, without having to scramble.
This is great and all, but what I really need is an alternative picture of shel silverstein to put on the back of the book.
Yes, I have no clue how she felt about the article from 2000, and obviously reading it with a 2024 lens is not fair to the original author. I am happy for her that the obituary didn’t deadname her like the original article did, and hope that she would have been ok with the pronouns used the way they did pre/post transition.
You’re right, very weird use of pronouns in the obituary. I can only imagine that most of it was lifted from the article from 2000. That doesn’t excuse misgendering someone, they could have updated it for 2024.
“I don’t want anybody going on me. We need every voter. I don’t care about you. I just want your vote,”
This was one of the three Trump quotes they have in the article. He added he was just joking but pretty sure he was serious.
Could it be you’re allergic to your laundry detergent or something introduced when washing it?
It has its downsides as well
Leaving a bar to catch a train and I did this when closing my tab. Ended up in a conversation and missing my train.
Those luxury RVs don’t pay for themselves. You expect Clarence Thomas to take away our basic human rights and subvert democracy in a regular RV?
Does Microsoft’s GitHub offer any pre-receive hook configuration to reject commits pushed that contain private keys? Surely that would be a better feature to opt all users into rather than Windows Copilot.
I misread the title as 2,019 trips were paid by Harlan Crow, and honestly wasn’t surprised that the amount of corruption was that high.
Not saying it’s not an internet meme, but NBC News seems to have ran the quote yesterday, and hasn’t updated the article with a correction:
he Biden campaign slammed the former president in a statement about the expected gun license revocation.
“When Trump tells the NRA he won’t do a damn thing to prevent convicted felons, domestic abusers, and other dangerous people from getting their hands on guns, he’s talking about himself,” said campaign spokesperson James Singer in a statement.
I checked James Singer’s twitter and couldn’t find a written statement, nor a rebuttal to NBC News article, so maybe this was a spoken quote off the cuff?
