I was trying to google up the context, found this article:
Okay, I won't read your articles if you don't want to.

Status: When did TigerDirect turn into such a pathetic computer store?
Edit: Also, what does this mean?
You will be working with C#, ASP.Net, SQL, Postgres, and AWS (SQS, Lambda, RDS, ElastiCache, etc). You will have partial ownership of software and processes and act as a mentor to other engineers.
Is this partial ownership like actual ownership or the "ownership" I have now where I have no input on decisions but take blame for the (lack of) results?

Probably means you won't own the DBs or the AWS accounts directly, or much beyond what your team builds. That's not a bad thing unless it's done badly. The stack described is not incoherent, which is surprising for a job posting.

@error said in The Official Status Thread:
I'd never been in a sauna before. I always wondered what the appeal was. Why would you want to be in a very hot room?
Now I've tried it, and... I'm more bewildered than ever.
The attraction in Finland in winter is that outside is cold and the sauna warms you up properly.
The attraction in the Texas summer...Never been to Texas, but experienced sauna in sub-tropical Taiwan during summer.
On a rainy day, I arrived at a hotel which had hot springs and a sauna, and a large hot-water swimming pool. Decided to stay there for a couple of days. When returning from a long bicycle tour the next day (with hot sun shine), I felt the hot water and sauna really great. Also the hot steam in the sauna enriched with fresh lemon grass.
It is surely a different experience from sauna in snowy winter, but still very relaxing.

Definitely the second type. But partial, so there will be other people to sabotage your work and push the blame on you.

Status: Just joined the $50 mouse club (Corsair Sabre Pro - hopefully I can disable the side buttons somehow).
Also bought this with it because I wasn't paying $12 to ship a mouse:
Unicomp came out with a short version of their bucking spring keyboard (Mini-M) but they're so dense. It costs more than their full size keyboard. They show the old bottom row layout but, since it's so impossibly difficult (for them) to update pictures, it might be the abortion with the right alt and right Windows keys flipped. Even if it is the right layout, would it kill them to even out the size and alignment? God, how can you have a license to print money (Model-Ms made in the US) and keep fucking up so badly?

Never! Until I run out sometime next week.
My wife was being Donnie Damn Dimedrop the 2nd and the 3rd. On the 4th dude showed up with starshells. TO HYPOCRISY!
My own, she skipped the starshells.

Afraid not. That's just good business. TKL is some kind of hot shit among pros and *twitch* creamers. You know, an entire generation (and some gullible old fools, too) entirely content with getting less for more money.

That was weird. I dreamt I was telling someone about a dream I just had. Except, I wasn't remembering the dream, I was having the dream, so it kept getting more elaborate while I was trying to explain it.

I think you're supposed to have an aching in your heart. Never heard of someone going to California to see the ocean. In the North, the girls are warm.

First day back from vacation and already there's a fight over which team gets to be my top priority first.

In my neighborhood, those weren't firecrackers. Not then the windows rattle.
