Like other people said, no job is worth your health. I'll repeat that one more time: NO JOB IS WORTH YOUR HEALTH.

Quit if you have to.

Kobo has daily deals going. Every day I open my wishlist and sort by price lowest to highest, and every few days I buy something.

that's an extremely odd explanation and it makes me think that he has some hidden PTSD. it's also insane that one person's preference trumps the rest of the world's.

I ordered something yesterday, expecting it today, and the confirmation email contains the actual product images and title (albeit trimmed).

mparnisari — Sun, 21 Jun 2026 06:11:29 +0000

I'm one of them. CORS is THE topic that I have to get a refresher for periodically. It's like I forget about it, it never sticks. I'm a backend developer so I never encounter any cors issues. Maybe that's why? I seem to forget things that I don't use on a day to day basis, so.

My uni course on optimization was so much fun but I forgot all of it. This was a nice reminder that I should probably revisit the basics :)

I love this website. I wish I could search it in Spanish. I grew up watching the Simpsons in Spanish and I sometimes struggle to find the right clip because I don't know the exact translation
