I had one in NC (in FL obviously my water is never COLD) and the temperature was never a problem even when it was below freezing outside. Think of running the tap long enough so that the water you drink is cooler. It takes awhile to get past the initial warmer water that’s been sitting in the pipes in the walls of…

Imagine a muddy car.  You won’t wipe a muddy car with a towel.  You’ll wash the car, then towel off the droplets.

You’re not going to sit on the throne for an hour until your butt is dry are you?

You’re doing it wrong.

It’s fine. I have a very bare-bones model without heating and it’s fine.

The time to get on the Bidet Train was April.  The people that give you a strange look about them, ask what if you stepped in a pile of dog shit.  You’re not going to just use paper towel to clean that off, are you?  Nope, youre probably going to hose it off.  That example alone seems to change a lot of minds.

A related mistake I see people make is to not check in as time goes on.

This isn’t a Chrysler product and its not rusty. It doesn’t look like a project for David.

David Tracy is totally wiring $500 to that guy as we speak.

What an unbelievably ugly car. I mean... it’s like someone sought out to design the ugliest car possible.

Oracle did not create Java. Sun Microsystems did and offered it for free to the world. Oracle bought Sun and tried to suffocate Java.

Obligatory.

Something stinks here... From an article from August:

I think most of us are.... Oracle’s argument is somewhat absurd. To say that an API itself is protected in this way would be insane when applied in a broader sense. Consider a REST api... does that mean that the first developer that uses a syntax like https://{domain}/api/{version}/orders/{orderid} would “own” that…

I rarely say this, but I’m on Google’s side here. 

The company making the call has to send that info to Google through an encrypted and authenticated back channel. Only verified companies will have the login for that, and if one of them is too loose with their connection, they would quickly lose that privilege.

Why not just come out and say exactly this? "Hey, I want to talk to you about something - it isn't so much about this specific incident but it's been bothering me and after thinking about it, I realize that it's because privacy is important to me. Both my own and yours. I don't have anything to hide from you but I…

I've noticed if you spend a lot of time thinking about whether you should end the relationship, the answer is almost certainly yes.
