A waiter is like a lawyer in that a lawyer is someone you hire to help navigate the beuracracy of the government and its legal system while a waiter is someone you hire to navigate the bearucracy of a restaurant.

There is something about writing the statement 'import time' that makes me feel supremely powerful.

Thousands of programmers have spent countless hours abstracting the complexities of time such that now I can just import a library and leverage all of their hard work for myself with little understanding.

I am truly a blind, idiot god. Feel the power of my ignorance!

It means your relationship to technology has been reversed. That you now execute processes at the behest of a computer instead of the other way around

ya, it was the ssl certificate. To be more specific though Let's Encrypt, the Certificate Authority I use, was phasing out the kind of certificate this website was using and the switch required a little manual effort. I got an email about it a while back but completely forgot about it.

I've been busy with job and personal life, sorry y'all!

R.I.P John "Jack" Bogle

This man pioneered passively managed, low cost index funds and created the first investment company, Vanguard, that is run as a cooperative. Meaning that it is owned by the investors. No man has done more to make investing accessible and lucrative for average American.

Most important thing to know is that there are 3 timelines.

The home timeline for people you have explicitly decided to follow.

The local timeline for everyone with an account on our instance.

The federated timeline for everyone with a local account in addition to everyone on other servers that our instance currently knows about.
