Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge?

It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

programmers are always posting like "worked on tracking down an issue with a Flurble deployment for twelve hours. the problem wasn't in Flurble at all - it was in the Gumbies install. It turns out if you install Gumbies 3.0 over Gumbies 2.7 and don't do a cache flush on all the client spiders they'll get stuck in the crystal maze." then you look up Gumbies and the site is one of those scroll scroll scroll types
with one sentence per page, like "GUMBIES is a lean, expressive sharding sandcube for testing and deploying large scale
Woodchips playgrounds. GUMBIES automates and streamlines away watersliding phases, meaning your team can
get right to the chipping. See why Microsoft, OpenAl and Bloingo have embraced GUMBIES in their Woodchips
workflows." and you get to the bottom and you're like I
want this I guess but I still don't know what
