Typing in python leaves a lot to be desired… Being looking at peps for quite some time, but it’s really hard for the language to make progress without breaking compatibility.

Hopefully at some point MOJO becomes mature enough to use in a professional setting.

I am not using Jenkins anymore but this seems like a lifesaver, thanks for sharing

So that’s the legal equivalent of the guy committing 10k changes the day before leaving the company…

Unless you are using groovy (jenkins), then you are running the pipeline to find syntax errors.

Jack Dorsey, good or bad?

neither, I am autistic, it’s not a choice, it’s a need.

or chapters from “Das Capital”

I would say fuck to-do lists but I need them to remind me to hate on them… btw you may want to look into PDA.

For context, I like working with people that I am on friendly terms (like go out for drinks Friday after work) and I have the privilege to be able to avoid work environments where that’s not possible.

IMO I don’t think it’s about the words, but the meaning of what you say. You can say a coffee is hot, but say that about the new receptionist and you deserve jail time (sexual harassment is a serious issue). The worst things someone could say don’t involve any “bad” words, like a male colleague turning to the only woman in the meeting after making a remark about motherhood.

Context is always important too, once I heard someone say “the motherfucker keeps pooping allover the place” referring to a service that was particularly nasty after an update (programmer lingo).

Personally, I hate passive aggression, I am autistic I just speak my mind, and I don’t understand it when others don’t.

Maybe, you get to choose the point. What were the moments that made it all worth it?

I am interested to see what 2024 has in store for the Linux desktop.

Immutable distros seem to be the new cool thing, and for once I buy it, they greatly increase stability and reproducibility. It’s about time we see the rule 34 of Linux desktop configuration, if you can think of it there is already a GitHub repository with a configuration for it.

Also, gaming has greatly improved! If a few years ago you said to me I could buy a PS5 controller to play games on my Linux machine, I would lose my mind. Well, the order is arriving on Thursday!

Some governments are making honest efforts to go full open source, investing in the libre office and other tooling they deem necessary.

Last but not least, nowadays most apps are browser based, they are cross platform by default.

The title is pretty self explanatory. Yes, I want to know if it’s AI generated because I don’t trust it.

I agree with the conclusion that it’s important to disclose how the AI was used. AI can be great to reduce the time needed for boilerplate work, so the authors can focus on what’s important like reviewing and verifying the accuracy of the information.

dude was frustrated, he quit and became a farmer

Scientist:

That means: Either the clock works quickly or it works precisely – both are not possible at the same time.

Engineer: Explain that to my manager please!

Also, Engineer: Well, what if we accounted for error rate and fixed precision post-processing?

rape survivors are going to have a hard time…

I wasn’t able to find a definitive answer, but after skimming Wikipedia I think a reasonable range would be at least 3 but probably less than 17.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bird_intelligence

Anecdotal evidence from the 1960s has suggested that crows can count up to 3. It has been shown that parrots can count up to 17.

I would learn to fly and then fly to one of those parks where secret service agents meet. Become a spy and sell the intelligence I gather.

well, I usually roll a few cigarettes for the road, put directions on Google maps, and adjust my seating/coffee/whatever else I need to be comfortable. In total it takes a minute or two.

I kinda agree but you still need money to live and if I was able to work on open source projects while sustaining myself I would choose it anytime.
