It’s worse than that. I’m affraid of these things sometimes too. They are affraid of being affraid. They can’t handle it, they can’t admit it and they do everything ti disguise it. It’s a very primal emotion

Call me a conservative, but those are not house pets

My computer “accidentally” installed windows 11 yesterday. So I spent all of today trying to fix all the stuff that broke. In the end it didn’t work, so I’m finally moving over to Linux soon.

I can tell you aren’t using outlook

Today I broke a colleague’s app, because I repurposed an unused app registration on azure, or at least I thought it was unused. I thought that would be faster than asking the admins for a new registration on a Friday afternoon. But I forgot that I had used that registration for my colleague 's application.

So when he came complaining that it didn’t work, I just told him he had done something wrong and that he should just restart his computer.

Yes, normal client computers. Just for simple document work. Inexcusable indeed

Same with YouTube, honestly.

Just talked to a woman from a company in the same holding as mine. They still run their computers on windows xp. They’re in health care and deal with sensitive, confidential patient data.

I never have that problem with Digital Ocean 😆

People do say “hi I’m from the US” and “hi I’m from canada”. They are both countries and people can tie their identity to it. There certainly are people who say “hi I’m from europe”, but not many. Europe also isn’t a country and doesn’t have the level of autonomy that the US and Canada (or Germany for that matter) have.

And they are right to do so. In the grand scheme of things, it doesn’t really matter how much time you spend on a problem. It’s the result that matters. I remember a meme where a dev would place a “wait” function in a new feature. Than remove the wait call and call it a free update and get lots of praise from the customer.

I agree with that, but “I’m from California” does have a different ring to it than “I’m from America”

What skills do you need to be an embedded dev?

Yeah, I’m not going out buying some “manly” beard conditioner, when my wife has a perfectly fine, pink bottle of rose scented “girl” conditioner that I can use for my beard just fine. Saves me a trip.

The LaTeX SE is also very useful. The official documentation of LaTeX and especially of third party packages, is often hard to read and it’s hard to find what you’re looking for. You can end up on the documentation on Overleaf,but they don’t go I to depth too much.

I think it did ‘rm -rf ~/’ and crashed. Hence the ‘stopped thinking’

This is the worst Venn diagram ever. The overlaps and categories are clearly just arbitrarily labelled. There are just too many combinations that are possible in reality, but not according to this diagram.

I get that it’s fun to shit on windows, but please respect the Venn diagram
