Dear Clippy,

Stop the charade. You’re just Copilot reincarnated—annoying, intrusive, and always showing up when I don’t need you.

How did “f*ck off” not make the cut for your prompt library this time around?

Sincerely,
Trying to Work

I used to have a FB page where I just posted stuff without saying anything, not even "And?" or "So?" (and not just 'cause of my tyqos).

Looking for the jokes are about whether or not this could be the new cover of Orwell's Animal Farm.

Not quite ready for Anum's class so I'm all about Susan's as I step out to get my supplies today.

Day 67 of #LilThingsInCoding

Submitted body and soul to Jekyll and Liquid.

Finally going public with #LilThingsInIT thanks to today’s 100Devs tea spill giving me the push.

Earned my 3rd AWS Educate badge (feels good to log the win, even if @XavierCodes is miles ahead).

Ah, the beauty of living language! Today I learned that "government work" can mean....literally anything, apparently.

Not sure how sh*tty of a child one would rank with a maneuver like this, but I'd still like to thank Craftsy for suggesting - at 4-ish in the pm via email - that we whip up some strawberry cupcakes for our moms using a recipe from a 4.5 year old blog article.

Phew! I can finally stop racking my brain for a chart-topping way for someone to launch a full-blown sh*tstorm of boomerang energy at themselves. #TheDaFuqFiles

Who else:

- remembered from the beginning that they'd be prompted to order the Live Premium option and went, "yeah riiiight!"

- dodged the MAX charge as often as it popped up 'cause, "this sh*t should be free for me too"

- then short-circuited on this page thinking was new UI?

Bonus Takeaway

Chosen family means finding love where others saw "too much" or "not enough."

pre-Takeaway #82 (from bytes.dev/archives/369)

Me before scrolling to the solution: It has something to do with that "this.sendGreeting();".

Me after reading the solution: In Yo Face!

Nice try with today's doodle, Google. But I had to open Edge before Chrome this morning saw a lil' somethin' somethin' on MSN's homepage. #NoLookOverThere

Takeaway #47

from bytes.dev Issue #359

The comma after "created: newDate()" doesn't matter. It's called a trailing comma. It's a stylistic choice, NOT the bug of the quiz.

But still. yw. #JobPlease
