I tried pocket a couple of times but couldn’t get past the “we think you’re on a phone so you’re only getting three items on the screen at once”. Well I’m not on a phone, I’m on a desktop with a 32" monitor and three T-Rex sized items on my screen is just terrible design.
Not in technology, it’s a rapidly evolving field. Answers that might have been absolutely perfect five years ago can now be irrelevant archaic trivia.
The kernel source code.
Depends how far you go back. The top half is pretty representative of the professional dev team I was in in 1992.
Same way you did it in 2024 but it’s easier because the springgirdles have been replaced with rotated manglebrackets.
I played Thing on a Spring a lot but never completed it.
The last three games I paid for were Minecraft, Factorio and Dwarf Fortress (pre-Kitfox).
I haven’t needed a new one since that.
Ever? Too many times. When I think I’ve told Windows Update “yes, do all the shit, yes it’s fine, yes I’m sure, yes you can do it, yes I really want you to do it, yes I’m sure I really want you to, yes I’m sure I’m sure, yes for the umpteenth fucking time” and switched off my monitor to go home for the weekend, the number of times I’ve come in on a Monday morning just to find I have to click “yes” yet again then have to sit there watching it grind out its updates.
I just wish they’d add a checkbox, off by default, that says “yes you can do it all, just stop asking stupid fucking questions” that I can click and go home. But for some reason Microwank insist I have to sit there watching that fucking update percentage creep up then endlessly sit at “100% all is done, please wait” for no reason whatsoever.
Oh yeah and there always seem to be way more reboots needed when BitLocker is active. I’m sure 1 reboot is the norm with occasional 2’s. But with BL it’s usually 5-6 reboots.
I used to work at a place where MS would raise tickets with us and I always wanted to give them the WU treatment. But professionalism always got in the way of “This ticket is 100% complete, you must close and reopen it to continue”.
So does kill -4 just make the program a bit poorly?
If CIVO are in the UK then why the fuck are their prices in dollars!!!
(yeah probably for easier comparison with the US stuff but even so)
In fact why not just call it the America shell? Heck, why not drop all words and say USA instead? The bash shell is now known as “usa usa usa”. Hey, here’s an idea, let’s just replace all words with usa! Usa usa usa usa usa usa usa usa usa usa usa. Usa usa? Usa, usa usa.
Plot twist: NHTSA are the only people that approve new designs, so Tesla can’t sell any more cars.
Well we can dream.
Just because you can make phones with an army of cheap Chinese labour doesn’t mean that’s the only or best way. With suitable “design for manufacture”, pick and place robots like those used in PCB design could relatively easily be adopted to screw screws in where needed. Use plugs instead of those flat cable things, then the whole lot could be easily automated. Remove any aspect of the design that needs fingers and the whole process can be automated.
Oh, so in non-capitalist countries, do people who speak out against the current leadership do alright?
Funny I was just wondering the other day if companies that practice vibe programming also practice vibe management.
These are the lyrics Lennon rejected.
I wiped it after I left my last job so there’s next to nothing on it anyway now. They did give me a laptop but due to a stupid conflict between the AV and VPN one of the processor threads was maxed out causing the fan to run on full noise mode all the time.
My laptop still works perfectly well so if Microsoft don’t want to support it any more then I’ll bung Linux on it. I’ve already got my Mint stick ready, just need to get round to it.
It’s an abbreviation for Command Line Interface To Objects Residing In System. A lot of male programmers can’t find it.
I created a script called GoUpALevel.
