Yeah at my place our DevOps team had been asking for resources on our CI/CD pipeline for a long time but wasn't prioritized. After awhile, after introducing something like teams wide "Retros', we noticed they didnt want

Oh exactly the same here. Small company in Germany, QA team with about 5 people. But not all the devs are bad, just some are too comfortable with AI and getting lazy.

It seems it was one of those cases where the "InfoSec" Department kept doing all these trainings how we don't do that and why but some manager or head decided to sent that email and surely cant face repercussions due to influ

I'm actually curios to know how do you people visit the link securely? I guess a VM but could in theory something be resilient enough to misuse the Shared Clipboard or something to access your host machine? Also what is your go to OS?

Yeah at least when you interview locally in your areas, you get to meet them before you get a random test assignment. But also online, once or twice I received these Leetcode style sites to register and do a few tests before we meet, which

This reminded me when we I was a kid we had to split the wood for the whole winter and that was actually a huge job all day or few days and way harder than just a moderate workout. I hated it then but actually now I miss the time I spend wi

I don't wanna say but some people decide to do the unthinkable and that's how boulevards are filled with statues. You always have a choice, they just all suck. There were quite some that refused due to principles and beliefs, but

Well to be correct also the parent said "is also a big factor" so Id say there are like 10 big factors (or dunno) and society should ensure countries are linked and allied by those factors.

Because most other countries don't even have a quarter of the military and resources the US has and there its usually about survival and defense of their borders with direct neighbors or at worst case region. But with the US military,

Thats very true and I think about often because even in everyday task e.g. "We need a new feature to download reports" then you get a ticket but still depending how much that is used, desired, invested in or marketed and all those

The thing with zero bugs is that software is very complicated not due it being harder than hardware but by simply that get some devs, POs, sys admins, devops and stuff and zero bugs will be defined entirely different. For example, in theory

How do you mean that? In my Linux Laptops updates never happen unless I trigger them and nothing really changes even years after the last installation. You could boot it up and use whats there and just never update.

Due to the immense resources NASA has why would they ever deploy this bloated software on spaceships? Wouldnt it make more sense to fork some open source project and slim it down and adapt it perfectly to their needs?

I have no problem with gambling as long we are absolutely sure its not done by children and teens, heavily regulated, strong limits (e.g. one play per day), required training or community memberships at addiction groups and things like that

Thinking gambling in any way or form makes the world a better place or just leaves it as it is, is utterly delusional and any contact (or support) with that person should be avoided like the plague.

How do you report that account to GitHub? I believe that accounts should be solely for humans and bots (AI or not) only via some API key should be at all times distinguishable and treated as a tool and not part of the conversations.
