Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

...fucking managers.

@BordedDev That's very true. When there are too many people watching demos like to just fail w/ unsuspected errors.

Also, correct - you need no man library for jars.

Have you considered importing woman v3.9 library?

I hear it can be very useful in kitchen environment, but YMMV.

/jk

@BordedDev You could always mention that you prefer the Physical releases.

@retoor Yeah, I can see how poor QA / QC of the man library would be problematic.

Have you heard about the improvements in the latest man v2.1 library?

@Demolishun I do get it, actually. I'm sure I have misremembered some things at some point or the other.

The amounts of data we consume && are meant to remember are sometimes / often very large.

Yeah. Can't remember meeting any sane designers.

@BordedDev Perhaps the evolution is below you && above me?

This reminds me of the 'Standards' xkcd comic: https://xkcd.com/927/ .

@retoor Have you considered:

```

import Man

bottle = Man.open_bottle("gluhwein")

if bottle.is_open():

serve(bottle)

else:

print("Try again!")

```

No, Ira, this is !spam !

What were you thinking?

@BordedDev Ah... probably this post has yet to be read by me.

I have opened a bunch of 'em to catch up; Some of them are still in the queue.

@retoor Ira && Vira have chosen to mark this one as spam.

Could be because of the mention of our viking in the post.

Very good news.

* Edit: *

Huh... post marked as spam, the fuck?!?

Maybe because of the mention in the post...

@iiii Sure, I can believe that it had been the case at the time.

I've seen slowdowns before.

Went through all of them && gave them a -- of my own.

Some EU country. No problems, yet.

@Lensflare Now that I think about it, Bloody Mary uses this trope, as well.

@BordedDev A person watching enough hentai will probably know that from the context.

@Lensflare Oh, a Candyman joke, cool.

/* Or maybe Beetlejuice, but I either don't remember seeing it, or have yet to. */

@retoor I'm reminded of Quagmire opening doors for some reason:

OT: Anyone interested in full list of changes:

Speaking of BrowserStack - I'd been using that one for a while when dealing w/ a Facebook port of one of our games at previous job.

Worked well.

But that approach would be advisable solely when doing pro dev.

It would definitely kill the fun portion you're having w/ the project right now, @retoor, but you already know that.

OK, reread the post.

My take was more for the:

'there were multiple instances where people somehow just "said the magic words" and everything worked for them. but if I said the same words it doesn't work for me. so what's the missing ingredient?'

part.

@jestdotty I was speaking in generalities for what might be the cause for differences between you taking about some things vs others.

Might've forgotten the cocaine was the topic.

Pick 'or whatever' for cocaine in this instance.

@Lensflare An interesting thing to know.

'Nobody calls me 'chicken''.

As made famous by:

OS setup.

There's a lot... one of them is staying at home over going out to party, but it's been true for me since I was 23 or so.

Just to add another possibility:

Could be a sex thing.

There are things that when said by the same sex, are kinda normal-sounding, whereas when they come from the opposite sex may be seen as an attempt at flirting or whatever.

Confirming what @retoor said.

I'm a lurker, there.

The tab w/ snek is often in the background, but if I hear a barrage of the high-pitched 'ping' sound, I'll take a look to see what the commotion is about.

Otherwise I will engage in a conversation every now && then.

@Demolishun Looking at this video, I'm reminded of the many * cough * intelligent women that said they'd prefer encountering a random bear over a random man in a forest.

I'm watching a lot of the whatever podcast lately, e.g.:

https://youtube.com/watch/...

&& I see a lot of that type of thinking, which is fucking insane.
