I wonder how you do it when faced with what are undoubtedly poor functional, regression, and unit test coverages.

Hold on hold on hold on, tell me about Finnish lunches, as from searching they sound pretty innocuous. (Surströmming I know of, no questions there)

One of my favorite topics and a hobby finally makes it to Hacker News

<swoon>

Fine mineral specimens are the most surprising things on earth. Such regularity and color! It reminds you that every atom of an element, every molecule of a compound is exactly the same (caveat energy states), and the laws of physics and chemistry don't change. That's how these stunningly bright and REGULAR forms develop - trillions of atoms or molecules all falling into line.

I had a route around San Francisco that I would visit, and all the places on the route were where there were good blackberry bushes. I’d take a bucket. Around Golden Gate Park and the Inner Sunset mostly, heading down into the Forest Hills area as well. I did that for a few years. Would pick up some plums along the way as well.

Now on the other side of the Bay I have a couple spots, not as dense a network. About an hour away there are masses.

That deciding between 1000 things is a lot of effort is so clear that I must wonder if the one you’re responding to was being ironic.

I know we're not really supposed to say stuff like this on HN, but: hells to the yeah

Right about the calcium lactate crystals, though wrong about lactic acid causing muscle pain; this has been debunked.

Apple software has gone so bad in the last decade or so. UI problems abound - the lack of default buttons that fire when you hit enter makes me ill. THIS USED TO BE IN THE APPLE USER INTERFACE GUIDELINES. Does anybody remember that big binder that was ultra-important for Mac developers? Well if anyone still has a copy they probably have it on a bookshelf where it looks nice on Zoom.

And then there's the bugs. What software is more consistently buggy than Apple software?

I feel like I must be telling everyone something they already know…please tell me I am

The one account I know that follows this account is @chasedownloads aka Chase Passive Income, which is a parody of a certain kind of entrepreneur, very much not real.

This is not real. No one associated with this account (or, probably, any account) has bought these nickels.

There is zero description in the video notes, so a description here would be helpful for one deciding whether or not to watch it.
