Software / Re: Windows Linux stuff
« Last post by Mike on July 13, 2018, 05:19:36 PM »Hmmm, I might have to try it out. One of the big hurdles to some of my personal development is not wanting to use my work laptop, not wanting to buy a new laptop, and having a windows desktop. If I can run linux on it that would be pretty awesome.

It can, but individual cases can always have different causes anyway.
And just because I think maternity leave is the largest contributor to gender wage gap doesn't mean I believe that there isn't a problem there. I think society would be better off if we looked for ways to bridge the gap (without discouraging babies).

Inexperience?
Nerves?
Fatigue?
Gaaaah!
Oh well, I guess we did well to get into the semis.
As a friend of mine put it, I haven't been that nervous about a semi since I watched Brokeback Mountain...

« Last post by Perspective on July 12, 2018, 08:31:41 AM »I've used cygwin but I'm not a big fan. It's hard to build new packages and it doesn't integrate well with windows tools (at least back in the day, maybe things have changed).
The native linux on windows stuff is supposed to work pretty well but I haven't actually found someone that uses it for day-to-day development.

It takes me about 20 minutes to cut my grass, front and back. I've got all the dandelions out, just have to deal with the clover. If don't get any results with the spray I'll call a company.
I still love cutting my lawn
How high do you mow?
Probably around 2.5". We've been having extremely hot weather (like 46 C = 115 F) and almost no rain. Pretty much everyone's south facing lawn is brown. My north facing backyard is in better shape since it gets some shade from the house. I watered it last night which I don't typically do (kinda feels like a waste), but it's at the point now that I don't want to risk root damage.
