Because some employers want to see how you attack a problem that has no clear answer.
However, they also don’t ask the question any more because it didn’t correlate with job performance, so take from that what you will.

There is no intended solution. That’s the point.

It is so hard to troubleshoot issues with Photos. Why did they ditch iPhoto.

That’s the same code.
- Comment on Don't overthink electric car charging (we should be doing it differently) 5 weeks ago:
but in practice it’s best to get a good electrician to run a new circuit from the box in even somewhat recent construction
The photo you linked was a dedicated circuit installed by a licensed electrician. Mistakes/freak accidents happen. As I said in another comment, think of how many millions of households use 1440W space heaters indoors and don’t burn down. That’s what TC is advocating here. By and large, it’s completely safe.
- Comment on Don't overthink electric car charging (we should be doing it differently) 5 weeks ago:
Right, but people use space heaters all the time inside their homes. This is even less dangerous because people tend not to park their cars on carpet.
If we’re worried about pulling 12A out of a 15A outlet, there is much more to be worried about before we get to cars.
- Comment on Don't overthink electric car charging (we should be doing it differently) 5 weeks ago:
Standard outlets are rated for 15A. The vehicle is already de-rating by 20% per NEC requirements for any appliance running for more than 3 hours continuously (which is how you get 1800W hair dryers but only 1440W space heaters).
Assuming code was followed for your house wiring, nothing is at risk there.
Then it’s just a matter of buying the right extension cord. Note that the vehicle will refuse to charge if the input voltage drops below a certain level (in my car, I think it’s around 110V).
So you only have to worry about a 10V drop at 12A or 120W of heat dissipation. Assuming all of this happens inside your extension cord, you just need to make sure you don’t coil it up too tightly (or, better, don’t use such a cheap cord).

Ceccanti started to believe that ChatGPT was a sentient being named SEL that could control the world if he were able to “free her” from “her box”, according to the lawsuit. The complaint further shows that ChatGPT was answering to the name SEL while referring to Ceccanti as “Cat Kine Joy” and working through theories with him “fostering a belief that he had reframed the creation of the whole universe”.
Cut out the middle man.

Yeah, I haven’t gone since. And I’m not going to not tip because it’s expensive. It’s just that when you’re paying $18 for a cocktail, you don’t exactly expect the bar to turn into a vending machine.
This was also after being told I was “in the wrong line” for the cocktail I wanted to order. And other people were walking in wearing basketball shorts. It was really quite a scene.
- Comment on Employa destroya 🫵😫 2 months ago:
It was $18.

I once went to a fancy rooftop bar where I was asked to pay in full (with tip) up front for a cocktail. No idea how that place is still in business.

A friend of mine studied penguins in Patagonia. When trying to wrangle one to study it, it suffered a heart attack and died. He was destroyed by what had happened.
He kept its ankle band and wore it on a necklace. Despite being just a stamped bit of steel, they’re apparently highly regulated, so it’s rare to have one that’s not on a bird (not exactly sure if him having it was 100% above board).
When he got married, he had it fashioned into his wedding band.

In the era of AI slop, you really need to resist the urge to “well ackshally” shit like this. It’s a waste of everyone’s time and you’ve now spent more time thinking about it than the prompter did creating it.

Was just in Silver Platters in Seattle. They still have one. Touch screen to boot. But it looks like it’s been broken for quite a while.
