Depends on your goal. If you want maximum sound attenuation, you can’t really beat cheap foamies, which are rated up to about 40 dB. If only about 20 dB is good enough for your needs and you want the comfort, custom molded ear plugs are great.

For directories, it’s permission to cd
into it. Read is whether you can list files, and write is remove, rename, or create new files. Don’t ask questions about the secret sticky bit
Thank you, soldier, for sparing me wasting time on crypto bullshit.
Little tip, since it’s an Electron app, you can reload the view with ctrl-R (cmd-R) on Mac. Saves you a trip to re-open, usually.
Maybe it’s a west coast Canada thing I dunno, but people around me talk about umami when it’s context appropriate.
Oh, look, it’s in the fucking dictionary: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/umami

I feel so seen
This is brilliant and I am going to use it.
“After this brutal belittling, gaslighting, and sexual harassment, you’re gonna have a lot of baggage. And the best way to carry it? The LTT backpack!”
Well, you can just ram them out of the way with your firetruck. Obviously that’s not a great option either, but if the FD does that then any damages are on the robot-taxi company.
Ding ding ding! We have a safe mode of robot transit: trains. See, we know exactly where they will go because they run on rails. Literally.
Observation is one I really enjoyed. Mild puzzling, tension but not really the sort that kills you, and a fun, mind-bending story. Also the title track is just amazing.
As someone who didn’t make it into law school, and didn’t keep trying partly because people who knew me well figured I’d likely have a stroke from rage as an attorney, I appreciate your wholesome and optimistic outlook you’ve carried into the career. Keep fighting the good fight!
I cried that whole bit with the controller feeling like you’re missing an arm. So exact a representation of grief.

Not a book, but the Bastard Operator From Hell series on theregister.co.uk gives a decent picture, if a touch dramatized.
I just want you to know this brightened my day with a sensible chuckle.
I want to like this article and to share it with my relatives to help explain what I am so angry about. But it is so thick with irony and deep-cut references that even I, a long-time extremely online dude, had trouble parsing all of it.
Dead orca. Came upon marine biologists cutting up and disposing of a beached orca, and the smell was like a physical wall, and then a repeated series of roundhouse kicks to the face and eyes.

Just unreal all around.
