And a poorly implemented reinvention at that.

I don't care if it's faster, the same or even slightly slower. The sooner I can start working on large applications with a strongly typed language (that isn't just transpiled to JS) - the better.

> I never pay for anything on the Web, because I cannot pay anonymously. Wow. My first thought upon reading that is that seems quite extreme. Having said that, it just shows you how normalized it's become to track all transactions.

The good old days where I meant a bunch of aspiring developers in the PC Dev chat.

I’m getting the impression that someone expected this junior to be somewhat more productive than could be reasonably expected and you were caught in the middle trying to (as you said) code for two people. Lousy outcomes for all involved.

By the sounds of it it seems (without having all the details) like there was poor communication & expectation setting which at least in part contributed to this outcome. Having him hired behind your back is obviously not his fault. Wed

For the life of me I can't understand why any software engineer would want an under-powered machine that's optimized for battery life (i.e. a laptop.) I've worked from home and always opted to build my own PC (not that you ca

Google is turning into a complete sh*tshow across seemingly all product lines. Aside from Ads (I mean Search) I can't think of anything that hasn't fallen into disrepair or been EOL'd.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed. They look stupid and it's a distraction - I don't care what anyone says.

Apparently they compared it with a 3060TI. It's not a 3080, but still nothing to sneeze at.

A gallon of gas weighs 6.1 pounds. 5 Gallons + a container is ~35lb - highly portable. That gives me roughly 100 miles of range for my vehicle at a total cost of around $20 (plus the cost of the container, said another $20.) A 50kW Tesla (

I've worked at bigger companies and there are plenty of folks much higher than 'middle dev' forcing these types of things down the organization's throat.

I don't understand how the math adds up. If we all move to EVs, the demand for electricity will go up (a lot!) But I don't see how we're planning to meet such demand with our current power grid. Which of course in turn mean

The rest of the world does and thus the price of oil will go up for everyone.

> I think China is big enough that it can help ease the economic cost on Russia They're not going to help Russia - they're going to exploit the situation and demand deals that are barely tolerable for Russia.

Our collective cowardice and inability to avoid repeating mistakes of the past (Poland) will come back to bite us in the ass. "But, but he has nukes!" - sure, and he'll still have nukes if/when they invade Poland, Romani

Microsoft keeps shooting themselves in the foot. The last straw for me is that they'll soon be requiring a Microsoft (online) account to install Windows 11 Pro. My next PC will run Pop OS or Ubuntu.
