I’m originally from NJ and whenever I go back home I forget how much the temperature drops up there during the summer, even though the humidity stays the same (or increases drastically). It’ll be 85-90 during the day but 65-70 at night with 90% humidity, which just makes it feel colder. Here in Miami the temperature drops like 5 degrees when the sun goes down and the humidity stays the same.

Come down here during the late fall/winter and it’s great. It feels like a nice spring day. I’m originally from NJ and it always makes me laugh when it’s like January and I see people walking around with coats on and I’m walking around in shorts and a T-shirt. I remember one day in December after my dance class I walked outside with a few people and said “damn, it feels great out here” and the girl gave me the “WTF is wrong with you?” look because she was freezing 😂

Facts. I take between 2 and 4 showers a day (most are just to wash the dried sweat off, no soap necessary unless I reek).

I’m originally from South Jersey where it gets humid as fuck for about two months out of the year with the occasional reprieve, so I’m used to it being hot as fuck. Before I moved down here, my friend and I spent 2 weeks down here in South Florida in August to see if I could stand it at its worst. I lasted a day wearing my typical summer clothes (khaki shorts and a cotton T-shirt, I’m a dude). The rest of the time was spent freeballing in basketball shorts and three tank tops that I bought and was still drenched every day.

I’ve been down here since October and freeballing in basketball shorts (or linen shorts) and wearing mesh or linen shirts are the only things I wear outside between May and October. Two days ago I went outside for a 10 minute walk and was drenched within a few minutes. Yesterday I went out for a long walk and before I went out I soaked a mesh T-shirt in cold water to see if it would help keep me cool. It didn’t.

Yeah, it’s just blazing hot there but at least when the sun goes away you get some relief, the humidity sticks around even at night haha I’m originally from South Jersey where the humidity is just as bad for about 2 months out of the year, so I’m used to it, but at least there’s the occasional reprieve up there. Here, it’s just relentlessly humid. At least I live right next to Biscayne Bay and there’s always a 10-20 mph breeze, so it’s not just still humidity like it is back home in NJ. Both places are essentially built on swamps. If you look at a map of South Florida it’s literally just the east and west coast that are populated (spanning maybe 20-30 miles inland) with the entire center taken up by the Everglades.

I live in a new apartment building and I forgot to turn on my AC last night (thanks Ambien!), when I woke up it was 74 in my apartment but 70% humidity 🥵 I’ve never seen it below 50% in here, even in January or February when the temp drops down to the 70s. I’ve had my dehumidifier running for about 1.5 hours and it’s 57% in here now. It’s 12:30 PM right now and it’s 70% RH with a 76 degree dew point and a temp of 88F, feels like 100F.

Me and at least two more of my coworkers (we got laid off at the same time) weren’t software devs, we’re Linux Sys Admins/Engineers. No one is safe.

with layoffs low

🤣🤣🤣 Tell that to the million or so tech workers that have been laid off en massé the past year! My friend’s friend was a Senior Software Developer at Oracle for years and just got laid off a few days ago. Disney laid me off last year and I’m still looking for a job.

Meanwhile in Miami it’s a low of 82 and a high of 89, with a feels like of 100 everyday because of 80% + humidity until the end of October. My apartment is in a newer building and is well insulated. I forgot to turn on my AC two nights ago before I passed out for the night. When I woke up around 10 AM it was 71% humidity in my apartment 🥵 I walked around outside for about 10-15 minutes yesterday in basketball shorts and a light T-shirt and was dripping in sweat.

I didn’t hear a single thing about this game until literally right now.

I love the line “when an explosion explodes hard enough, dust wakes up and thinks about itself”

Sounds like Miami, every day I look at the temperature and it’s like 82-90, feels like 100. Literally every day since like late May/early June, the weather report says “oppressive humidity, extreme caution” since it hangs around 70-85% with a dew point in the mid 70s. This isnt event record breaking either. Whenever the humidity drops down to like 60% and the temp is in the low 80s I’m like “it’s actually cool out for once” even though the real feel is like 92.

It’s been cloudy and rainy for like the past two weeks, so at least the pool is back to a cool/comfortable temperature and not like bathwater every day.

Before I read this I said “it’s because they have no idea WTF AI actually is” and then it said

The most common cause of failure is that the people running the projects have no idea what “AI” even is or does. “In some cases, leaders understand AI only as a buzzword and do not realize that simpler and cheaper solutions are available.”

Called it! 🤣

This is actually making me cackle uncontrollably while friends are trying to figure out the specifics of a board game 🤣

How can mods ban an admin?

“we taught a lion to eat tofu!”

I’m gonna say “drive the train”

…so just like a lot of companies hahaha

I don’t remember the exact model, whatever one came out like 2 years ago.

I still can’t believe people fell for that. The bike was like $2500+ and you had to pay for it monthly.
