... she bought me one of these for my birthday: Nessie Soup Ladle[^]
But I've searched the house four or five times now, and I can't see it anywhere.

No, they are all real. You just need the right glasses[^].

Only after OG has taken a bath. Nessie likes murky water.

Yes, she bought it, but did she give it to you, that's the question

Ahhh. You don't know the rules, do you? He's got to feel at home to show himself.
Viewing Instructions:
- Buy bottle of single malt. Possibly two.
- Fill large bowl with single malt (drink the rest if you wish).
- Add dry ice to the bowl.
You Nessie ladle will appear in the mist.

malware - worm
timber - wood
wormwood is used to make absinthe also known as the green fairy.

That one, I got in a nanosecond (unlike yesterday's "easy" one)

Since yesterday I've been thinking way, way too much about whether "Solo's Cantina" is actually a space bar because in relation to the planet it's on it's not actually in space.

Very good point!

I have always been a fan of the bulky, robust Thinkpad machines. But of late, I'm seeing more people carrying the light weight "Carbon" models. I think they are pretty light.
Being light is okay but do they last long just like the usual bulky models? Or the longevity is compromised. I have a strong dislike for the flimsy builds. I can feel them even while plugging-in/out the USB/Network cables. And my notebooks even stands multiple accidental drops, I love them.
These lighter "Carbon" models though they are light, still carry the robustness? Any feedback please?

The light models can be OK depending on the gorilla's using them.
So far I of know a couple of Carbons going OK: 1 careful-ish manager 18 months and one sales girl 1 year - nary a peep.
OTOH 1 Lenovo Yoga with a also careful sales lady, 2 years old not doing so well- less than a year the PSU plug started getting dodgy and in particular the useless micro-HDMI (known problem) sucks.
Summary: carbons seem OK, but if you see yoga: run.

This year, I've participated in the AI and Machine Learning featured contest held in Feb-Mar 2018'. During the contest I've learned about Node.js, which is server-side javascript-based framework that allows to nicely and easily create various of web application and serves as an alternative to ASP.NET, PHP, and others. . Thanks a lot for the guidance. In my opinion, Node.js is the most powerful and high-performance framework I've used ever before . That's why, I've decided to deploy some useful Node.js modules and contribute them to npmjs.org repository.
Probably these modules are about to be helpful for someone of the developers in CodeProject's community as well:
Here're the direct links:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/string-function-exec[^]
https://www.npmjs.com/package/parse-argsv[^]
https://www.npmjs.com/package/webworkers-helper[^]
Enjoy!!!

Well done.
You've definitely a huge javascript/framework fan base in the lounge.
Side Note: where's that sarc. emoji we've been promised?
