Just gotta thank Dr. Oz for creating a world where I can’t see the word “crudités” without laughing
You know how sometimes you get those ads on social media for things you would absolutely impulse buy if it wasn’t December? What does one do with those? bigcfm.com/products/sci-fi-c…

If you’re wondering how our Paris trip is going, getting on the ferris wheel I ordered “deux tickets por favor.” If you don’t speak French, the correct phrase was “Deux billets s’il vous plaît.” I know this, because I won a French award in high school. 🤦‍♂️

But really, we are having a beautiful time. As long as the wife does most of the talking.
It's so easy to take ASP.NET for granted. Try writing a web app in Node.JS if you want to realize just how many batteries are included and how much time that saves you.

Trying to DMCA takedown a positive, helpful, open-source project because they’re competing with your product is the kind of behavior that puts @KensieMaeLLC into the same club as some of the most despised companies in the world. Congrats on being part of the problem guys!

And now for something completely different. I didn't know I needed to see a drone fly through a production line (and I do mean through), but it's so satisfying to watch. Especially because they said this factory would never open. Well, if so, the CGI here is off the charts.
