Is it possible to post a message on LinkedIn that excludes certain people? Facebook has this feature and I'm kind of surprised this isn't a common LinkedIn scenario

My prediction - via selling clickstream dat- in the future your browser history will be as public as if it was bundled with each HTTP request, at least for big company websites.
Graceful degradation- yeah, after I comment out the jquery plug in. Seems like this graceful degradation was tested with a browser with no javascript, not just javascript that stopped working in with some version of chrome.

I used my Atari to solve my algebra homework numerically. (Stuff like, solve for 2x + 8 = 4) I just attempted every integer from -200 to 200.

IDEA: Journal of Coin Flipping. I'll publish the results of remarkable studies involving coin flipping, such as "How to Flip 40 heads in a row, predictors and determinants", and "Tails Revisited, Tails now represent 80% of all coin flip outcomes"
You have rolled a 1 & must subtract 2 for your 3-charisma. You must now tell a joke that isn't funny.

Here is the much shorter article version of the BS Jobs book :
https://strikemag.org/bullshit-jobs/ https://x.com/mistersql/status/1097518201360039941
Everyone that works in a large organization should read this book on BS jobs.

So to do sphinx docs you just need to know
- ReStructured Text
- sphinx extentions to rst
- docstring extentions to rst
- python (to edit http://conf.py, do custom roles & directives)
- Jinja (to customize templates)
- HTML, etc
- Make script
- Yaml (for read the docs)
This is why it has taken me so long to feel half competent to start.

The comments in http://conf.py for #sphinx are not in ReStructuredText and not in """doc strings""". It is like they think their own dogfood stinks.

KATA: find all the naughty words with plausible deniability if you replace middle character(s) with a wild card of indeterminate length,
h*rny = only one thing https://wordmaker.info/starting-ending/h-rny.html

Unlike other diseases where you can self diagnose, (heck you can self diagnose heart attack provided you haven't passed out yet) when you are stroking out, you can't form sentences, let alone effective plans of action. You will have to rely on people around you for diagnosis

My age is between PROLOG and ALTAIR BASIC years old.
why does my brain want to reject ReStructuredText syntax? Maybe because this syntax is like nothing I've ever used before.
not like xml
<f a="">b</f>
not like c or python
f(a,b:str)->str
instead:
.. f::a
b
