Everyone strives for 5 9s, but musk aims for two 8s.

We’d say “a history student” in the UK, and the h isn’t silent.

There’s a great podcast called “The Lazarus Heist” that goes into North Korea’s activities in stealing huge sums of money. Well worth a listen.

It’s baffling to me. Maybe I’m just used to using “modern” frameworks, but the only way this could be an issue is if you literally check if the string value equals “null” and then replace it with a null value.

lastName = lastName.ToUpper() == "NULL" ? null : lastName;

Either that or the database has some bug where it’s converting a string value of “null” into a null.

You can filter by tags in cost explorer.

Probably because it’s the defacto messaging app in the UK and nobody probably questioned it.

No that’s new to me too, based off me searching the word and seeing the Wiki article on the toy. I’d seen the word because of one of the instances (blahaj zone), but I literally never see the word outside of Lemmy.

TIL blahaj refers to a soft toy shark sold by IKEA.
