  • You’ve got a financial incentive to have someone watch 30 seconds of video - so ofc you use all the skeeziest shit straight out of the chum bucket days of the early internet.

    It’s not about attention span: it’s about manipulation and money.

    Not only that but this meme is not about TikTok - they don’t have votes, especially not a downvote. This is almost certainly about Reddit: the only major social media site that has downvoting.



  • Agreed.

    But the entire point I’m making is there’s nothing wrong with the diamonds, the problem is with the method and the people profiting from it.

    You were saying the diamonds were not fine by dint of origin. I’m saying let’s right the wrong and then use the diamonds.

    I mean yeah: if we went and killed every person who benefits from conflict diamonds and closed all blood diamond mines why wouldn’t you be cool with using the resources? Their evil origin has little to do with their practical utility and if the original sin is expiated there’s no reason not to?

    Like yeah conflict diamonds have basically no purpose because we can make diamonds cheaper and better in labs but in a situation where there are more practical uses (cobalt, LLMs) once we cleanse the land of the sinners why wouldn’t we use their ill gotten gains for good?

    It’s a chemical bath because there are various chemicals that they’re using to bathe them. I was lumping ozone bath, sodium bicarb bath and AlEW bath together and they’re all 3 different chemicals.

    It’s a bath because they’re being bathed which has nothing to do with scrubbing.

    AlEW bath is 48–85% after 45 minutes at a PH of 12

    Refrigeration was 60.9–90.2%. A 20 minute water bath was 26.7–62.9%.

    My advice is, and always was, scrub your veggies for 30 seconds before use.

    Your advice is plan it out so that you’ve got a high PH solution that you leave your veggies in for 45 minutes before use.

    If you see those as equal I have no idea how. I cook all the time - the amount of times that I’ve got 45 minutes of prep before starting is next to 0. I can’t eat at 9pm every night because I spent an hour waiting around for veggies to purify when I can simply wash them off in the sink.

    It’s insane that you wont see reason, but I get that you’ve decided you’re right and can never change your mind.

    AlEW was not the baking soda, it’s a separate thing if I understood it correctly.

    Additionally you’re complaining that nobody rinses their food for 30 seconds while expecting them to bathe it in high ph water for 45 minutes??

    Furthermore they were comparing it not with rinsing and running but rather just soaking it in water for 20 minutes.

    And despite all that card stacking water still was 69% removal at its high range, which overlaps significantly with the low range of the chemical baths.

    I’ll keep rinsing and running, thanks.

    As a programmer my soft skills are as important as my hard skills. I’ve never worked on software alone: coordination, coherent and clear communication, collaboration. It’s all integral to the role.

    I believe it is most of what has led to me being promoted up to staff eng level. I’m very good technically but so are many other engineers.



  • Theory is fine but in the real world I’ve never used a REST API that adhered to the stateless standard, but everyone will still call it REST. Regardless of if you want it or not REST is no longer the same as it’s original definition, the same way nobody pronounces gif as “jif” unless they’re being deliberately transgressive.

    403 can be thrown for all of those reasons - I just grabbed that from Wikipedia because I was too lazy to dig into our prod code to actually map out specifics.

    Looking at production code I see 13 different variations on 422, 2 different variations of 429…


  • 403 is a category, not a code. Yes I know they’re called http codes but REST calls are more complex than they were in 2001. There are hundreds of reasons you might not be authorized.

    Is it insufficient permissions? Authentication required? Blocked by security? Too many users concurrently active?

    I’d argue the minimum for modern services is:

    403 category
    Code for front end error displays
    Message as default front end code interpretation

    As json usually but if you’re all using protobuf, go off King.
