My manager once accused me of overinflating my (granted, very conservative) estimates just to be able to pull off a Scotty and be early in 10% of the time.

Teach this to your manager: At the beginning of a task, uncertainty is highest. Under no circumstances should you give an estimate in ‘man-hours’. Even days is too precise. The first estimate should be in months or years (of course depending on the size of the project). Then, as your insight into the project grows, you refine that to months, then weeks, later days. A vague estimate with a lower and a higher bound is way more useful to your manager than a ridiculously ‘precise’ but highly speculative number.
This lesson was brought to you by either “Code Complete 2” or “Rapid Development” by Steve McConnel, and by my former manager who wanted projects estimated in minutes.
Is this where the word ‘dressing’ comes from?

On the contrary (same source):
Very little alcohol enters fat because of fat’s poor solubility. Blood and tissue concentrations are therefore higher in women, who have more subcutaneous fat and a smaller blood volume, than in men, even when the amount of alcohol consumed is adjusted for body weight.
On an empty stomach, blood alcohol concentration peaks about one hour after consumption, depending on the amount drunk

So unless the girl threw up within an hour (give or take) after drinkinging, throwing up won’t do much.

I thought Ubisoft was known for their shitty launchers.

Honestly, I find it great that Linus still manages the Kernel after all this time.
It might simply be over-exertion. I get cramps when I walk a lot. Maybe your resting position already includes tension in your calves?
Apparently the link between magnesium deficiency and cramps is shaky.
magnesium supplementation compared to placebo for treating idiopathic rest cramps […] Did not significantly reduce cramp frequency
Are all public clocks in the US digital clocks? Off the top of my head, I can tell you 4 locations within walking distance that have analog clocks, one of them being the train station.
Back on the bad, old site, someone hypothesized that enough people tripped over that thing when it was covered by snow that it finally got moved to the side.
Aww. I confused “communities” for “instances” when I read the title. Thanks for pointing it out.
