I know what NumPy is but what is "werful"? Or is that a typo.

Here's a linkedin job posting from Home Depot for a
Senior Software Engineer Instructor (Remote)[^]
This seems like a really odd match.
Why wouldn't Home Depot just sign its employees up for PluralSight?

Or out-source their development?

That link is leaking someones (presumably your) name. I clicked and was asked to sign in with R*** D*** as my suggested identity.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Thank you. I fixed the link.

From what I know, most consumer goods shops like Walmart, Lowes, Target have large IT departments, and they have reasonably big software offices in India. Most probably, this Pluralsight subscription is for those employees. HomeDepot is similar.

OK: Pulp Fiction was an excellent movie, and chock-full of quotable moments:
"I'ma get Medieval on your ass"
"I'm sorry, did I break your concentration?"
"'I love you, Pumpkin.' "'I love you, Honey Bunny' 'All right, everybody be cool, this is a robbery!' 'Any of you [REDACTED] [REDACTED]s move, and I’ll execute every [REDACTED] last one of ya!!'
"Aw, man. I shot Marvin in the face"
"Did you notice a sign out in front of my house that said 'Dead [REDACTED] storage?"
And OK, Tarantino is selling digital snippets (as one-of-a-kind items). Maybe. For loads of money.
Quentin Tarantino is selling Pulp Fiction all over again – this time as art | Film | The Guardian[^]
But apparently, blockchains are involved, and Fungibles, and ... I know less after reading that article than I did before I started ... I'm too old for this [REDACTED].

Well, i am sure i am not grinding like my esteemed colleague Honey The CodeWitch, but, i can say:
Using the current Visual Studio 2022 is much smoother than expected; there is a problem using the latest ReSharper in terms of intellisense, but Rx for 2022 is still in progress. Some slow load times for opening various views: obviously they defer loading until demand requires it.
No complaints, for once
i just spent a whole day solving a geometry problem ... turns out geometry per se was not the problem the problem was an inconsistency in the definitions of Microsoft built-in geometric functions: some of them expect angle values in radians, others, like RotateAt, expect degrees. yikes !

Good job Bill!
Sometimes you will have to tell us too what you are secretly cooking in your underground volcano lair!

Grinded meatballs of course!

More likely grinded coffee
Dark roast preferred

Have you ever made an Indian curry that tastes as good or better than one from a restaurant ? I've tried and failed many times - I think it's a ghee thing

We do very nice rogan josh and phaal in our slow cookers. The ghee certainly helps.

I make a pretty good Massaman, but it's probably not very "original" (if any curry can be "definitively original")
The one thing I wish I could do is Sate the way it is served on the streets in Thailand / Malaysia. It never quite comes out as good as I remember ... which may be a "memory thing" but I hope not as those are a damn good contender for "World's most perfect food".

That's one of those fusion thingies - I might have a go at that

I think the same thing when I see "chemical free" products. What are they made from, then?

I - indeed my entire class - was "awarded" an F in my French O-level exam... are we thinking along the same lines, Griff?
But yes, "free from" seems to be synonymous with "safe for everyone" these days; and I do worry that it's also free from vitamins, protein, and taste!
