Uber/Dash drivers parking wherever suits them, blocking lanes. Inconsiderate pricks!
Then I get annoyed at the companies forcing them to meet unrealistic expectations or they stop getting jobs.
Then I get annoyed at myself for getting annoyed at the poor bastards busting their asses to make a living in a system that treats them as entirely replaceable.
Exercises like Duolingo are only half the battle. You need to have some immersion in the language you’re learning. Watch tv and listen to podcasts in the target language, you won’t understand (at first) but your brain will start recognising the sounds and structures.
“Hostile posture”
I really like that phrase.

On iOS the web rendering engine is the same one used in Safari, yeah.
But everything built on top of that is custom.
I can think of no higher honour in this day and age.
Fixed rates are safer, for sure.
But during the pandemic, when rates went to near zero, I was very glad to be on a variable.
Mortgages can change repayments amounts as the central lending rate changes.
We’re in a squeeze in Canada right now because rates went up and a bunch of mortgages are up for renewal. (5-year fixed rate is standard here)
Too many knocks to the head.
Joke: The first app to get rid of is iOS.
(I’ve been making iPhone apps for a decade, let me rant!)
I went between the Olympics and Paralympics. I liked it a lot. Wandering streets in the Latin Quarter. Poking around random shops and such.
Went to see Notre Dame, the Arc and the Effiel Tower as the main attractions.
I went to the Louvre but its was crazy busy, even on a weekday. Kind of hard to enjoy it and there were very few places to sit, even less where you could sit and enjoy the artwork. Still went to have a look at Lisa and Venus, pretty neat.
The food (as long as you stay away from tourist traps) was great! Do try a baguette by itself if you can. I had no idea bread could be so deep and complex and just damn tasty by itself.
I just use a good quality moisturiser, but I do get a little irritation.
I’m sure there’ll be a DLC that will emulate that feeling eventually.
And then Anarchy Chess joins the server.
This friend of a friend hardly competed in the Amazing Race?
Because, if so, I already got it!
My SO and I have been together for around 15 years. We’ve had our ups and downs, like everyone else, but I think we’re in a really strong place for the last year or so. I’ve had to face up to my imperfections and work to change them. But some of our problems were caused by my now diagnosed ADHD. (Medium severity inattentive type)
And she just rolled with it, she has accommodated my newly discovered needs like it’s nothing. She is compassionate and understanding of my preference to write down timelines so I can see the whole picture. She is happy to take housework off my plate that I’m simply not built to do well.
Holy fuck I love this woman.
A literal gallon…
