  • I don’t think there are many people just chucking pills out. 1000 isn’t much if it’s your go-to pain relief.

    Ibuprofen solid tablets take about 5 years to expire (they are also pretty safe to eat expired as well, just might be less effective). So you have to have about 4 a week on average, which is well wihin safe limits even for a single person (and these are more for families).

    As an example usecase If you have 3 menstrators in your household that take 4 a day 3 days a month (daily safe max is meant to be 6x200mg tablets) then that’s ~450 a year and you’ll be using them up more than quick enough to not throw any out, and that’s just dealing with cramps alone. Throw in someone with back pain, the occasional headache and sprained ankle, etc, and you can see how quickly a big family could go through them.

    Personally I don’t quite go through them that quick (I use roughly 100 a year) but if my household was 1 bigger it would make sense for me too.

  • If the calendar was written in C++ or many of it’s derivatives then signed integer overflow is undefined behaviour and it could technically choose to do anything it damn well wants (unsigned integers actually do have defined overflow behaviour). Something tells me the runtime of a paper calendar is anything but standard :D


  • I can’t count the number of times I’ve written out a question for a coworker, answered it myself in the process of phrasing the question and deleted it all. My mentoree has a habit of sending me messages and deleting them a couple seconds later which I’m pretty sure is the same thing.

    People can hate ai all they want but if bouncing questions off an ai helps debug a problem go for it.
