  • i have totally run into stuff that silently truncates the password i give it. It’s always something like online banking that you would hope has robust enough security standards to hash that shit, too… The one in particular i’m thinking of silently truncated the password in the reset-password form, but not for the log-in form. Took me forever to figure out wtf was going on there.

    I love the lane assist on my car. It does resist me a little bit in the situations you describe, but it’s not a strong resistance. Just enough to get my attention if i do it by accident, but not enough to hinder me going where i need to go.

    Now i’m curious what the lane assist parameters look like for different makes and models…














  • For pizza, we preheat our oven at 25°F higher than the cook temperature, with the pizza stone already in there, then turn it down when we slide the pizza in. Perfectly done crust every time. Before we started doing that, we were experimenting with waiting some number of minutes after the oven said it was done preheating before putting the pizza in (as the preheat sensor doesn’t know that the pizza stone takes longer to get to temperature than the air), but the high-temp preheat seems to give better and more consistent results. Our oven also beeps when it’s done preheating, so no need for additional timers either!




  • It’s not about size. It’s the fact that the United States of America has the word “America” in it. And I don’t refer to the US as “America” (unless I’m being cheeky, though in those cases, I spell it 'Murica), but I do refer to people from the US as “American”.

    And I know this is all kinda pedantic. I just think it’s fun to talk about words. I get the feeling you read some snark into my pervious comment, but that really wasn’t my goal.
