Has anyone had to work with Advanced SubStation Alpha files? Extension
.ass.I genuinely think that being able to name your own invention or discovery is a big driver for scientific progress.
See the Cox Zucker Machine!
“A few weeks after we met, we realized that we had to write a joint paper because the combination of our last names, in the usual alphabetical order, is remarkably obscene.”

Given that there’s an acknowledgement of the tool in a 1996 article, the software may even be older than sex itself
Also what a time capsule this page is lol, nothing wrong with it really… just a relic of a different era
True, I never had sex before 1996
We know. No one has.
On mobile it looks like a modern page design
Not for me
I wonder how old their Wordpress version is…
I worked at a place where the asset management system was called “ASS” and yes, publishing assets was called “pushing to ASS”. Unfortunately management eventually made the developer change it.
At work, work is assigned to people through a system that contains a Value Assessment Gate. Work frequently gets stuck in the VAG, which is the code used to interact with that component. Sometimes it takes a lot of work to get things out of the VAG, and when they do come out, it’s called flowing out/on
My old job had a deployment script called shipmyself. The developer who wrote it brought it up by name whenever possible. He really enjoyed it.
You have to be careful when the input is discharged from the system, it can really make a mess of things
Reminds me of a tool at my job called Picard. No idea what it does, but my disappointment was palpable when I found out that there wasn’t even a hint of a star trek easter egg
Oh, you haven’t found it yet?
if it HAS to be -dp and you can’t also use -pd then it is implemented incorrectly.
Dunno why you’d ever do -pd, considering, but still
You can’t just tell someone their software is implemented incorrectly
You do -dp when the stars align, obviously
What does it extract? 😳
Boring real answer: stars in an image. It’s a robust pre-opencv image processing tool for astrophysics.
See also SAO Image DS9, which was the subsequent version after SAO Image Next Generation.
S, mainly
cum
Sex data, obviously
Friend working with rodent data often had, prolly intentional, git lines like “push mouse_anal”
These stargazers have a little more than just wanderlust huh.
Fucking astronomers flexing again
