@Gulfie Okay, I was mis-remembering some details, but I found what I had read:

@Gulfie I forget where I saw it, but one of the writers involved with bugs bunny cartoons had confirmed that the character was gender fluid

Had a realization this morning that never in my life have I been stung by a bee.

I have, however, been stung by yellow jackets before >,<

@synthgal aye, hopefully it helps you!

@NinTheFolf Endorphins and other good-mood hormones, plus a reduction in cortisol, the stress hormone

@shyra He is basically the most arrogant and self-obsessed person I have met in my entire life.

@shyra Also, he believes that the only programming language that any coder needs is BASIC, and that all other programming languages should be done away with because they're all too hard to learn.

And I will note that his first programming language was the infamous Dartmouth BASIC...

@shyra He was also obsessed with looking good in the eyes of others, and would often make bold claims about his abilities or qualities that turned out to be nothing but talk.

He was also fond of talking trash about his friends or claiming credit for things they discovered or realized so that he could make himself look better.

@shyra yeah, that was my reaction towards a lot of his BS

Also him:

"Sending messages in plaintext is not secure? Then just send a password with the message, also in plaintext"

And also him:

"cryptographic hashes are completely unnecessary and provide absolutely zero benefit"

The attitude of a former friend of mine:

"I had some success writing encryption code in the 80s, so therefor I know more about encryption than anyone even though I retired twenty years ago and stopped paying attention to tech development"

and his attitude later:

"There is no such thing as security. If I'm not an encryption expert, then nobody is."

May or may not be having an electrician coming over this afternoon. The "maybe not" is because we may be having a severe thunderstorm, and its probably best to not do electrical work during one.
