Morning TKP,

I updated some out of date back end software that powers TKP yesterday. For anyone who noticed the downtime, that was why. I woke up to the whole server down this morning, but I believe I figured that out. If anyone notices any bugs or anything off with their daily TKP use, please drop a note here.

That escalated quickly

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:

Luckily I am not old enough to need that sort of help yet, though my 20 year graduation anniversary is in a few weeks so I guess that is not too far off...

I'm missing 120k or so Turkey legs, Joe. 😁

A decade on TKP and it's been time well spent.

Would be a good April fool's day joke to pull on Alum, and put a new leader on the big board 😄

This is why it is literally every regulars job to download all alum's posts just on principle

Or...everyone could shamelessly upvote me relentlessly on every post to drive me up the board to the roof. Cause the ceiling is the roof.

So is it just me or do CS Grads notice a correlation between being a 'front-end' or 'back-end' person to the attraction of chests and booties

Na, Java script is a mess that only insane people can deal with (this include NodeJS too). But lots of sane people like boobies.

Wait, what?! This appears to be some kind of computer thing.

Noticed something new with this comment. On my phone and iPad the comment crossed out of the comment box into the gray area outside the box.

It's unrelated, but thanks. It's because the table was too big to fit in the allocated space so it overflow.

That's the fix.

So something I just noticed, there are ads on the login page ... I assume they are a part of some common code, but it really struck me as odd that I have to watch ads during my login to a paid site.

Not a complaint, just observation
