  1. Putting aside all the politics involved in this merger, I kind of agree with you... My first thought when reading about Netflix acquiring WB was that a whole lot of IP was going go down the drain thanks to how hard they try to push an agenda in their content.
  2. Any company using leetcode as their primary way to assess competency is time wasting, soulless black hole unworthy of any real talent.
  3. Old macOS has got so much soul. I missed all those years since I started working with it back when Sierra was around, clearly not the same.
  4. They clip the tails when lamb marking, don't they... I don't think I've ever seen an adult sheep with its tail other than pet sheep, and you can see why they would want to cut the tail, since the wool get all messy...
  5. This is brilliant, I had complete forgotten about this one!! Thank you very much.
  6. I think I would also ad to the mix that young folk these days are incredibly overconfident and averse to criticism. A few years back they got a junior dev in here, and I was supposed to help him get on our stack, and ultimately mentor him.

    This kid would not accept seniority, would constantly and publicly try to divert from the stack we worked with, he would not take any input on his work without actively fighting the process and will crowd the conversation at team meetings with never-ending Reddit-tier takes that contributed to nothing other than fill his ego.

    In the end I managed to convince my boss to get him out, and he now works in Cyber, which will probably cause even more damage in the long run, but at least I can now say "not my problem".

  7. Godspeed. Seems like a good pairing. Bun is sort of the only part of the JS ecosystem I like, and Code has become such an important tool for my work, that I think good things will come out of this match. Go Bundler as well.
  8. Good, it's not only me then... I was just having a pretty interesting exchange with their support chatbot.
  9. I had a colleague once that was an absolute anthropomorphic distro. This man was Linux personified, and he literally walked around town with a Slackware live CD at all times. This man refused to use any other operating system, or any other programming language outside D or Erlang. He was pretty fun.
  10. Nothing beats the stale, pragmatic platitude of Slackware.
  11. Author has a history of bad-mouthing programming languages, that seems to be his meme: https://www.wired.com/author/sheon-han/
  12. two more weeks
  13. They really managed to handcraft a unique user experience, that's for sure.
  14. Things seem to be coming back up... been almost 45 minutes, since my first alert came at 0836
  15. OMG! today of all days!
  16. Yeah, dammit! NOT TODAY!!!
  17. The issue is that we live in an era were a 2-bedroom house is already something people can start giving up on. So the threshold for whats attainable is getting lower and lower, and soon enough just food will be enough.
  18. I can't be the only person that noticed this, but the Teams client for Linux never times you out, or never shows you as away, even when the pc is idle for hours on end...
  19. Sadly, no PDF version available... meh...
