Morning you fabulous bunch

Ludger Solbach07:08:23

Morning!

Good morning all

Morning all.

morning

a meagre 1-2 hours of sleep for me last night. Every time I was about to fall asleep, a child started making a fuss in the other room. :man-shrugging:

morning to all and especially our slug eating neighbour

Ah I expected a picture of a slug eating your neighbour, but this makes more sense :)

otfrom07:08:24

I'm still scarred by that incident. Our neighbour barely survived

otfrom07:08:26

There is a ton of hedgehogs around where I live and my dog must sniff all of them by pulling the leash with all its force. So if you want to find all of them in your yard, lmk 😂

Thomas Moerman08:08:40

aww little fella

otfrom08:08:40

This is the first live wild one I've seen, but then we don't have a dog

otfrom08:08:43

Hedgie was pretty startled when the light came on last night. They looked at me, said nope, turned around and scuttled there to hide (poorly)

I wonder if they'd consider taking out your the other pest species in your garden :thinking_face:

otfrom09:08:25

The pear eating squirrel?

seb23109:08:33

precisely

otfrom09:08:06

I'd be happy as well with fewer slugs

seb23109:08:52

The slug's are pretty intense in our garden this summer and I've got to admit we're being a bit brutal with them I'm afraid

Thomas Moerman09:08:45

Same here, I puncture all of them. Invasive species.

Last night (I'm on late 🦉 season) I enjoyed setting myself out to implement and deploy a feature in 1h, with that hard limit. That was the most coding fun I recall in a long time, it kind of brings out the same parts of the mind that are triggered on competitive sports, stuff like that Maybe I'll make a sporadic habit out if it?

Ben Sless18:08:05

Have you tried competitive programming?

vemv18:08:38

oh I'd suck at that, I''m not a math-y person

vemv18:08:41

hbu?

Ben Sless19:08:11

Just job interviews 😁

Ben Sless19:08:40

Is competitive programming always about math?

vemv19:08:40

> Just job interviews oh yes yesterday's feeling as kind of like in a cool interview where I'm live-coding a problem against the lock

vemv19:08:47

> Is competitive programming always about math? I figure it's low-level stuff that can be ranked, and not stuff like "who made sensible tradeoffs and elegant designs"

vemv19:08:54

but no idea...

Ben Sless19:08:16

Here's a competitive fun problem - you have 1h to implement a web server implementing some HTTP API, the server which handles the highest rate wins

vemv19:08:31

I'd be down as long as everyone uses the same stack and all perf difference boil down to lang/algo usage

Ben Sless19:08:48

wdym same stack?

vemv00:08:53

same web server and overall selection of clojure libs

Good morning
