    I mean, yeah, but I don’t like using “fixed” here. Going to permanent regular time would mean the sun wouldn’t rise an hour later during the DST months. DST ends on Halloween this year so we’d have an earlier sunrise right now.

    But it doesn’t change anything else. Winter is standard time already so it’s not going to change anything about the sunrise or sunset in December. It’s also not adding any sunlight, just shifting the times.



  • We use Copilot to review PRs at work. It loves these kinds of scenarios.

    The other day, I was adjusting a drop-down site filter to only show options that would work for the given user. It threw up a “critical vulnerability alert” complaining that I “validated” the user’s selection based on all options, not just the ones they can view.

    First off, it wasn’t validation. It was me getting the value of the option. Second, they literally couldn’t do anything if they did select one of those options. And third, the user could bypass it about a dozen other ways, even if I designed it to be a validator.

    You can easily buy gold in most countries. I don’t think you’d even need to try as hard as the other person suggested.

    If you really wanted to be cautious, you really just need to remove anything identifiable and slowly sell them at different “we buy gold” places. You could even get fancy and buy a coin press. If anyone asks (they probably won’t, these places aren’t exactly scrupulous), your grandpa collected gold before he passed and left his collection to you.

    Or if you want to be a bit less cautious, just claim you found them in your yard.

    I live in Indiana. One of our “bragging rights” is that ten of the top twelve largest high school basketball arenas are here. The largest can sit about 8,500.

    While I’m having trouble finding a definitive nationwide list, the tenth largest high school football stadium in Texas can fit nearly double that.
