- devnullbrainYes but before 2005 we didn't have Reddit, so we didn't have people who learned about prescriptivism from there and think it means all discussion about taste and style is immoral.

- This article asserts 7 times that jobs are being replaced by AI and the only data to substantiate it is a link to an EY report that is paywalled, doesn't hold up to the text of the link, and doesn't hold up to what contemporary journalists wrote about the report.
Bad article. Hope a human didn't write it.
- At another university I once had extenuating circumstances preventing me from taking an exam in one of the main exam halls. I was invited to take it in a normal classroom, where a session was being held at the same time for people who get additional time. I was able to start later and still finish with the normal allowance but without having a chance to collude with other students.
- Does that matter? I lean towards the yes-the-ISA-matters camp, but I'm also under the impression that most silicon is dark.
- Ironically, the thing that annoys me most about Gemini is the Discord-esque loading messages in the CLI. Twee is one thing: mixing twee with serious hints is worse.
- People who only care about this quarter don't donate to a non-profit in the hopes it turns into an investment in a private company.
- It will be compatible for ~5 minutes:

- It's bad enough with what Red Hat push
- There are low hanging, unpicked fruit for Microsoft to make more money from selling desktop licences. It's still trivial to buy one for a third party for pennies on the dollar. It's still not possible to install officially without TPM 2.0.
In contrast, Microsoft have pushed the pricing of Game Pass up significantly and are in the process of unifying the next Xbox platform with PC.
Given that, I don't think it's consistent with Microsoft's current strategy to make selling games to gamers harder for the benefit of the OS division.
Now, that conclusion does depend on Microsoft acting rationally, which isn't a given, so I'll also add that I don't think it's actually an option for them: win32 already exists, the cat is out of the bag. And the cat can't get back in the bag to be extended/extinguished unless Microsoft convinces everyone to move to Windows 11.
- And changing your bootloader (every update) and timezone (every boot)
- This is a great idea. However, roughly 10 seconds after the first reports showing market penetration, a PM will suggest 'further monetisation'.
- Your bio says you were formerly a game developer?
- As a candidate, it can be confusing to read application advice. You'll often see people say that they look for x-y-z when hiring, which conflicts with when you saw someone say they look for a-b-c the week before. How can both be true?
Because both are true, for what they look for. But what's considered standard or desirable differs massively from one market to another - region, industry, role. It even differs at the most granular levels: companies, departments, interviewers. At some point, the difference in what is desired is just differences in culture fit. Applications aren't an exam and you shouldn't expect to 'pass' them all any more than you should expect to 'pass' every date.
If you are a hiring manager, you know what it takes to get hired at one company. That's less than what someone knows if they go out and get two job offers. So, do us a favour, don't muddy the water.
- That's a really standard CV
- Yep.
Those 5% shouldn't be approving PRs without it.
Those 95% shouldn't be code owners.
Nice things can be had, you just have to work for them.
- So does 'parent'.
- I was part of the Carmack cult but the illusion was broken when I saw him use the same authoratative tone on a subject I'm more knowledgable about.
- 1. large, homogenous domain where the budget for your department is large
2. niche, bespoke domain primarily occupied by companies looking to cut costs
- Yes, and it's a good thing.
Either way, you need to fit the needs of the same number of people. If they're in a dense city near everything they need, they use less space.
Policies to limit urban sprawl just an expensive way to create more sprawl elsewhere - and roads to it.
