Why am I only just now realising that:

15 - 5 - 1 = 9

while:

15 - (5 - 1) = 11

When an expression has addition/subtraction as well as multiplication/division, I always understood the need for brackets around the +/- to prioritise them (#BODMAS). I just never realised it also changed the value of expressions that *only* use subtraction... 🤯

How about an #OrderOfOperations for your #caturday ?

When configuring your #OpenSSH key (ssh-add and what not...)
After opening your terminal, but before issuing any commands, you must first #cue this clip, and be properly seated for typing. Then hit play. (The #caturday is in the clip)

That might have you thinking a while @catsalad hmm?

On second thought, maybe I should have it promote me and THEN delete its database. 🤔 #OrderOfOperations

Friendly tip to UX designers:
If other functions of your machine require the door sensor to be closed before they can proceed, please be sure the "Door Open" warning gets top priority if the display is only capable of showing one message.

Real world example: Customer in a panic because the machine says "toner empty" after they installed a brand new one.
One of 6 doors (unrelated to the toner and black plastic in a shaded area of the machine) is ajar by 1/4" due to one latch not fully engaging. The machine won't process the new toner because the door is open, but won't display the "door is open" message because the empty toner alert is already displayed and has priority.

Concerned that the younger generations don’t understand that you have to jump and jive, both, and only then do you wail.
