It's weird: I think of "You Only Live Once" very differently from the "general view".
I figure "you only live once, so let's make sure I don't have to waste my valuable time doing it again, and oh, by the way: let's try to make sure it doesn't kill us".
This is directly at odds with the common interpretation which is "you only live once so what the heck - do it, if we crash and burn, so what?"

Yeah but that's reasonable, and the kind of people that use the term YOLO... not so much.

Anyways... both would be wrong in this case, because YOLO = You Only Look Once (python library for object detection in image analyse)
As it seems pretty wide used in Machine Learning...

Kind of mandatory[^]
EDIT: After a bit of research I found out that the YOLO is not "You only live once" in this case, but "You Only Look Once" a library for object detection in image analyse...
I suppose it was done in purpose, but for me... it is a bad name selection.

Yep - they could have gone with Automatic Image Detection System or Superior Hosted Image Translation...
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

That's what inspired my OP. YOLOv5 plastered all over my feed above the fold.

Or a bunch of folks pursuing their dream of starting their business and making a difference, because "you only live once".
As opposed to being employed.

OK, it's not my birthday for a couple of weeks, but Herself insisted I might as well use it "to make sure it works" since TNT smash the EU to UK plug adapter it was boxed with.
And I have to say it's fine - couple of poor design decisions, but nothing too major, and it makes good coffee.
So I've been experimenting with blending my own coffee and most of the results have been the same: it tastes good, but it's just going straight through me. Still, with blends like these, who needs enemas?

I'm about to try 'locally' grown coffee - they grow/produce coffee in Aus (Northern NSW/Queensland) and PNG - I have a sample pack of 4 suppliers to try (All espresso)

What make and model is your new coffee machine? pics, links? Sorry, if you posted this already in another thread.

Gaggia Naviglio Silver | Caffè Italia[^]
It brews a little too fast - about 15 seconds for an espresso - so it doesn't probably pull all the flavour from the beans, but other than that and some poor material choices it's pretty good.
Makes way better coffee than my cafetiere did!

Are you roasting your own coffee? I started roasting about 3 years ago. While I will drink commercially roasted coffee, most of it tastes stale to me.
Roasting is easy enough and the entry level machine I have works fine. It doesn't have the bells-n-whistles much more expensive models have, but it fits my needs. The drawback is that you must plan ahead -- roasted coffee is usable 4 hours after roasting, but it's recommended to age most beans for 2 to 4 days, and they start getting stale after another week or so. Keep in mind that commercially roasted coffee is months old, so 3 week old home roasted coffee is amazing in comparison ...
Nothing tastes as stale as a K-cup

No, but I can still remember the smell of the little shop that sold the fresh-roasted beans my mother loved. If I roasted my own, the whole house would smell like that, and I'd be drinking coffee 24 hours a day ...

I understand that!
The independent coffee shops in my area mostly buy from a local roaster, and most post a sign in front of each canister of beans, stating when it was roasted. As much as any coffee shop smells good, the independents smell MUCH better.
The cupboard where I keep my roasted beans smells amazing each time I open it!

The independents in my area re-sell roasted beans. It's far from cheap, but getting a variety of fresh roasted beans is wonderful. This might be an option.
I buy green beans in 3 to 6 lb bags, and do a mixture of re-buying previous choices and trying new ones. Some are better than others, but I've yet to have a bad one!
Except for decaf -- I buy decaffeinated beans in 1 lb bags, as I use very little. My wife and some friends want decaf. The best of these are merely "ok", but decaffeination kills the flavor.
Interesting factoid -- Dunkin decaf tastes pretty good (for decaf) because it has a fair amount of real coffee in it ...

When looking for a job, you ever ran into a company that asked for social security number and a copy of your ID/passport, whilst not asking for your resume?
I worked some jobs crossing the border, this never came up. Even the German Arbeitsambt doesn't go that far, and they had a lot of forms to sign.
The mails I get contain three languages (kinda normal here), but there's spelling errors in each of the languages. They claim they need my social security number because they need a "unic" identification for the "data base" (she mails in English, as if it her first language).
Asked a former co-worker and after two lines of explanation she asked if it's a scam. Am I just paranoid again, or is this outside the usual? It smells wrong.

They need a resume, and not those other things at least until they offer you a job.
|
|
|
|

Beat me to it. No employer needs things like your SIN/SSN until they have to file some paperwork with the government. Which means you've actually accepted an offer.

That was what I thought, but needed confirmation before taking action. Thanks for that.
Reported the incident, and requested further explanation from the company involved.
