Any #systemd experts want to take a crack at this one? https://serverfault.com/q/1079993/336913

Trying to set up a single timer that rebuilds all my websites at some regular interval, but I can only ever get it to trigger once using the only method I've found to do it.

My "short" blog post on generating regular numbers in Python, finally available only 7 months after I started writing it 😅: https://blog.ganssle.io/articles/2021/10/regular-numbers-in-python.html

"Awesome, do you get to choose the color of the lasers?"
"I should back up a second."

If you went back in time to the 1980s and told people that something called "Laser Eye Surgery" was going to be commonplace, I imagine they'd be very disappointed when they found out what it actually is.

@eric Might be related to this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asimina_triloba#Research

> Kentucky State University (KSU) has the only full-time pawpaw research program in the world; it was started in 1990 with the aim of developing pawpaw as a new tree-fruit crop for Kentucky.

@lucifargundam Kind of like a tropical fruit custard, or somewhat like creme bruleé.

When eaten slightly underripe it tastes a lot like a persimmon to me.

Looks like they are temporarily out of stock: https://earthy.com/products/fresh-pawpaws-from-earthy-delights

PSA: It is currently pawpaw season. I found out about these things a few months ago and ordered some from Earthy Delights, and they are delicious!

I'm really sad that they are only available for a few weeks each year.

How about a chart of fraction of people with X complication after Y period of time? How are millions of people getting this surgery without being able to make a realistic assessment of their risks?

I "love" how every website I find about LASIK complications says something like, "20-40% of people experience dry eyes, which usually peaks around 3 months and disappears within 6-12 months, except for a small number of people who have it forever."

How small is that number‽

Has anyone got a list of questions I can ask a potential fitness trainer to ascertain whether or not they are likely to be in one of the more science-based fitness camps?

Every time I try to read a book on fitness, it's all, "The one simple trick to get ripped abs with zero effort!" I want a fitness coach with a pragmatic, skeptical point of view.

@ashwinvis I can heartily recommend staying far away from any packaging discussions.

So, basically this permanent sign is advertising that all the sushi comes with math homework?
