       @clive This is mainly different from layoffs in that your reward for survival is doing the toil of the fruit that was eaten

       @futurebird I wind up using trig and geometry so often. In high school I would never have thought that those would be the most practical of my math courses.

       @futurebird I think that would depend on what you mean by 'computer'. Analog computers have been used to solve complex problems but they don't necessarily have instructions in he same sense as a Turing machine and don't require a clock. By a much older definition of 'computer' a clock was required but it was only to tell the computer when their shift was over.

       @ZachWeinersmith I feel like a number of those stories have an ending with a very different viewpointKid: Mom, I have terrible news about dad.Mom: Did he die?Kid: Much worse. He's returned.M: Shit.K: What will we do?M: You run out and tell him how much we've missed him. I'll phone the bank and have Mr. Brown make it look like we're impoverished. Oh, and dear?K: YesM: Mr. Stevens is the *gardener*, not mommy's special friend.K: Of course, mother.

       @futurebird No, but if you tie a large floofy pastel pom-pom to it then it'll be a lot less likely to wander off

       @foone I work in video games and the products we make at my studio are generally considered to be held together with tape, glue, and broken promises. And then I look at people who are working on  things like appliances and cars and their software is SO MUCH WORSE than our bad software.

       @MLE_online @Karstan So far the only free power machine I've seen is a long extension cord that's plugged in to a neighbor's outlet.
