Program sucks at something it was not designed to do.

The term derives from the […] Latin word privus or perhaps privo that meant […] an individual without an office.

The requirements have always been the same. Only now they’re reflected more accurately in your docs.

Don’t they get their taste back when they reach room temperature again?

I hadn’t considered bureaucratic obstacles… that sucks.

Well, I commented that before I learned that OP is in New Mexico.

That sounds like something that would be apparent from the get-go, no?

I take it the most pressing issue right now is cooling. If that is right, you might have yet another avenue to explore: Ask facilities with cooling needs if you can store one or two pallets there. I’m thinking schools, (yet again) restaurants, ice cream parlors, ice skating rinks (not sure how they work exactly – is the whole building cooled or just the rink itself?), butchers. You could ask an outdoor gear shop (I mean a place where skis and winter jackets etc. are sold) if they know of a place where one can test jackets. They might know a cool place, too.

extra produce for free and they in turn have to prepare so many meals

Nitpick: If you’re demanding that they do something in return, it’s not free.

In this case your two options are: A) Someone gets the food and puts it to use; B) it spoils. In this scenario I believe giving it away, no strings attached, might be the better option.

I take it “nm” stands for New Mexico. What’s the weather like there? Sun-drying might be an option, at least dried tomatoes are something people buy.

For the watermelons you might try to contact a local vintner. They may be able to process them into wine and/or liquor.

If you’re willing to go there, you might post on local facebook groups.

You might try contacting restaurants and see if they have the capacity to cook ketchup (or something else with a longer shelf life) from the tomatoes. Technically, everybody can do that. I’m thinking of restaurants because of their bigger pots.

Speaking of restaurants: They might have a food dehydrator that can process some of the cauliflower, as well.

Also: Where is this? It’s a small world, some Lemming might pick up a cauliflower or two.

If I were in that situation, I would try quickly whipping up some homemade posters and put them at our market square, maybe in front of schools, and in front of grocery stores. I would make sure to specify why these are given away, otherwise people might be suspicious.

That would probably illegal, but …well… who’s going to sue a food bank over hanging a few posters for 2 days?

The key is to not reassign function names to local variables.

const print = obj.toString
print() // gives you a bad time

I was taught that. I learned driving in Germany, though.

Doesn’t matter if the mechanism that checks the repo and sends the trigger message to the runner is down.

The fewer magic blackboxes are around, the

• (happy variant) easier it is to train new people and the less mental burden there is on existing staff
• (sad variant) easer it is to fire people.

I marvel at the proficiency with which Microsoft tears down every piece of software it touches nowadays.
