I make things. Most of those things involve code, but not all of them do. Currently I'm making a book imposition tool. Check it out at imposify.com!

Instead of working with data you should have made your text uppercase. But at least you didn't put it in a cache.

I work with an AI cultist. He's gone from being passably Linux savvy to mindlessly struggling with failing commands. He doesn't read the errors. Literally retries failing commands like three times and gets angry because he tried nothing and he's out of ideas. Copy paste to claude saves him.

And if you data isn't a string, your .upper() method call will fail.

Also normal garbage collection should clean up the variable on the right hand side. You can call delete there but there is no real gain.

Hey now she gets to focus on the really important things in her life, like how she's still somehow too stressed and overwhelmed to get anything done.

No man you're starting to get it, except we don't want you to fund them even if they're controlled.

From what I've witnessed, they don't really know much about what Donald Trump says and thinks, and instead get most of their knowledge through the mendacious sycophants who just won't show them that part.

Spittle flying from my mouth as I make unreasonable demands about special orders after the food is already delivered while they're calculating which payments they can float between paychecks down to the hour.

When Trump started arguing with India about tarrifs, my (US electronics) company's sales plummeted to 0 there, literally overnight. CEO said it was direct cause and effect. They were one of our fastest growing markets the day before.

It has yet to recover.

Sir,

We can get angry. We can organize in the streets. We can even frantically donate money.

But we cannot resolve this crisis through legal means. That is literally your job. At this point it's really the only one you have. Please do something. If you cannot, at least admit it.
