Cool website, gave it a go. I am not a general advocate of license plate tracking but believe it’s a double edge sword. A former vehicle was stolen and recovered twice - likely due to tracking technology.
Seeing a lot of code. I work with Ruby/rails a lot and try to expose myself to core rails code much as possible, or react, or whatever other core code.
But at jobs it’s viewing code from as many people as possible too.
Dang this was depressing and appropriate to read on HN I guess.
In unrelated I saw a license plate with just “YC” today.
I thought the article was gonna be the following joke:
It’s a guys first night in jail. At 9pm one of the other inmates yells “51!” And all the other inmates laugh and laugh. A moment later another inmate yells “29!” And all the other inmates laugh and laugh.
The new inmate asks the cellmate - what’s going on with the numbers?
The other inmate replies, “we’ve all been in here so long we assigned jokes to a number and just say them instead. Why don’t you give it a try?”
So the new inmates yells - “14!”. And it’s silent
The new inmate asked the cellmate, “what happened, what did I do wrong?”
And the cellmate said, “you didn’t tell it right..”
... and I'd heard the variation: Another inmate calls out "36!" which brings out raucous laughter. The new inmate asks why that one got such a great response, to be told "We haven't heard that one before!"
