Yes, if they delete it, you can start a new one with no problem. Also, they only seem to delete unused ones, though.

Whenever you have it set up properly, make a system for you to easily spin up an identical one. Terraform, ansible, etc.

Re N4: IIRC, The Presidents of the USA made a song about them.

Growing up in coastal scandinavia, learning to hate seagulls isn’t part of one’s upbringing. It comes naturally after experiencing living nearby them.

And shark jumping.

That pretty much sums up Lost for me. I probably watched longer than I needed to land on that conclusion, but I wanted to quit on a good point to leave the series behind.

I don’t remember exactly when I quit watching, but they managed to contact a ship and they were about to be rescued. My headcanon is that they made it home to live miserably ever after. I’ve since learned that the show got even worse.

Mandarin. It’d be useful for me to learn because of my job, and I’ve been meaning to learn it for quite a while. I just can’t seem to find a decent source for learning that doesn’t focus on the written language; I only need spoken Mandarin.

Their records in the future were incomplete. It wasn’t just hard to pinpoint where Harambe was, but also WHEN he was.

Two important lessons are opposite aspects of the same thing:

• You’re not entitled to anyone giving a fuck 😞
• Nobody gives a fuck 😀

In other words: You’re responsible for your own happiness. And whatever makes you happy, most people won’t care, and fewer will think any less of you for it. Enjoy what you like, and don’t worry too much about what others think.

I almost hit a whale with a tiny open boat. We were off the coast outside of brazil doing survey work, and one day I was piloting a small workboat for transferring some people and hardware between the two survey ships. After returning to my own ship I slowed down to a crawl while waiting for clearance to approach and the davit to be lowered. Suddenly a mountain surfaces right in front of me before it disappears again. Had I slowed down later than I actually did I would’ve run straight into it.

And 7 years later I almost hit a moose with a wellboat while testing a freshly installed autopilot system.

The real reason Kyle Reese came back. All of that skynet stuff was just a sidequest since he was already traveling through time.

Any particular field of science? There are some great suggestions in this comment field already, so I’ll just mention the CrashCourse channel on YouTube. Produced by Hank Green and his associates of SciShow fame. My kids love the CrashCourse Astronomy series.

Yup. Failed spectacularly, which is why they went for mixing boards as a backup solution instead.

Makes sense. As long as the transfer medium isn’t highly capacitive or inductive, it doesn’t matter as long as you compensate for the loss in signal strength.

…and now I fell into a research rabbit hole regarding mud capacitance.

EDIT: Mud is actually slightly capacitive. Source: “Static Dielectric Constant of Water and Steam”, a 1980 journal article by M. Uematsu and E. U. Franck published in Journal of Physical and Chemical Reference Data

Additional trivia: The term “banana republic” originates from countries best known for exporting high-end audio equipment back in the day.

Hoboy, Maybe THIS is the version where Vim finally implements rich text, inline images, and AI/Clippy!

Update: Turns out they didn’t. It’s still just a no-nonsense and overall great text editor 😢

That cat falls into the same category as the guy who actually invents a pill that makes your dick larger. Or someone actually giving away a prize to the 1 millionth visitor to a website.
