Remind me again, it slipped my mind: How many of those holes are globally completed and in operation legally, explicitly rated for high-level radioactive waste and NOT explicitly labeled as an intermediate solution?

Asking for help moving will show you really how far some people will go for you.

That's quite the drastic conclusion to draw from people telling you when they are available (and that not being literally always) to help you for something you most like presented as not critical or dramatic when you asked them. Do you seriously expect people to preemptively cancel all their existing plans based on a hunch you might judge their whole character and the sincerity of your friendship on the sole trigger of a seemingly innocent "hey, when would you be available to help me move?"?

If you want to at least give people a chance to adjust, don't ask "when are you available?", instead try "[date] is when I want to move, can you fit helping me then into your schedule?" at least a few weeks ahead of that date.

We could have had that, but when some people who might have succeeded tried to establish a proper standard for Markdown in 2014 the original inventor threw a tantrum so they backed down and it never went anywhere.

I have tried some and I do like bouldering. Unfortunately that does not cover all relevant muscle groups.

I am a bit envious of people who perceive the gym as a hobby. For me it is more like brushing teeth: Not fun in any way, but I do it anyway because I don't want to deal with the consequences of not doing it.

So you are saying they are combining nationalist and socialist ideas? Do they classify themselves as a workers party?

Might have heard something like that before somewhere, just can't put my finger on it.

Reminds me of a workplace story a friend of mine told me years ago:

On the desk opposite of her there was a colleague who insisted on wearing open shoes without socks to work every day. Due to proper AC that was a bit chilly at the feet so she brought a noisy space heater to warm her feet. And when other people complained about the noise she was shocked about how people could be so selfish and demand that she has to freeze. Could not see any other way out of that dilemma.

Maybe we could at least nudge the LLMs in the direction of suggesting appropriate tools and giving hints how to actually do that when applicable instead of blindly brute forcing every task. Of course that does not solve the issue of stupid corporate incentives, but I feel like by now most companies have realized that burning as much money as possible is not a good goal.
