Illinois also just banned the practice of banning books :)


The Illinois education board always had a soft spot for banned books. I was legally required to read two of them for my schools to retain accreditation. But we actually read 3 1/2.


I have to say that definitely makes me happy!


I think this article is somewhat of a relief to myself. It always felt like the majority of women I talked to casually mentioned they are in a relationship before my interest further peaked. At least it's not just thinking it's a coincidence that the majority that I talk to are taken, it's statistical lol.


Women are not objects to be owned. Even if she's in a relationship she might be unhappy with it and open to other options. Just don't be creepy or aggressive about it.

To use an analogy, hiring managers are allowed to offer you a job even if you already have a job. They're not obligated to wait until you're unemployed.


Tech workers should start unionizing. Our skills and talents are borderline a trade and thusly should be bargained for.

Having a giant corporation kill off your occupancy with no pre-warning is raw meat for union reps who would love to sue on your behave.


Not really, the Discord API will probably supply some sort of status per user in a given discord channel.

Discord is already setup for users to interact with server bots on a rich command palate. Bots at this point are just server extensions.

Webhooks have been a thing for ages.

Discord is arguably one of the easiest services to bind to from a developer's perspective.

They definitely could. But their rate-limiting schemes cripple any large-size integration. When you have up to a few hundred users, that may work. But if you have thousands of users triggering calls to the Discord API through all the apps that you can connect if Discord even allows it, then you will hit their brick-like rate limits way too fast.

Patreon is much better with that - people can connect all their apps, websites, Vimeo, Discord, Discourse, even desktop software that they distribute, and get them work with their membership at Patreon. There are even GTA servers, GTA mods that distribute member-only benefits to their users via Patreon. I'd even say that its a very good way for desktop software makers to monetize their apps too. Like the PC benchmark software maker OCCT does. (https://www.patreon.com/occt)


It's not hard to make a CA.

Make a key for your CA, make an SSL key for your sever, sign the key with your CA and add the CA to your in-house browser/list of trusted CAs.


> add the CA to your in-house browser/list of trusted CAs.

This is the hard part. Unless it's company hardware there is absolutely no way I am installing a new root cert on my machine.


piggy backing on this comment to mention that github can render .org files :).


Alas, not perfectly, but yes. All of my repos have readme.org, not README.md
