I have seen it at s friend when it was new. Multiple DOS boxes where nifty. I think it also was less prone to crashes from faulty applications.

They have a sast scanner offering..we tried to use it Basic thinks like "ignore this slew of reporting because the build is already deprecated" or "always ignore this error, false positive" are missing. The last few yea

In Mendig (Eifel) there is an enormous mine for millstones which was in us for the whole middle age until the 19th century or so. Most people just dug down from their Celler and the whole city stands on enormous caverns.

I've originally studied social sciences, so my training uses maths but its core is words. I dislike symbol only notation. Real words trigger different parts of my brain. I am very good at memorizing content and flow of texts but bad at

Yes, we do maintenance contracts and anything react is really costly to keep up to date. You have enormous churn just to keep existing functionality. Super hard to sell that you need like 30 days a year just to keep you app live workable

I really like the FP paradigm, but could you all stop using weird abbreviations and random characters as substitute for operations? You don't do programming with chalk on a wallboard, for crying out loud. Ideally, you are using a good

You don't give up any right for privacy - your identity is opaque to all except the state agency running the identity service.

I think it's necessary. Bots and trolls are already ruining online conversations. I envision a state run identity provider which provides a limited number of non-resolvable identires to you. E.g. you log in with your personal identific

The names do not communicate what's happening and when. Do assert and assert, what's the difference? Something like debugassert and alwaysAssert would be much more understandable

Just FYI, at least germanies rods are also a patchwork. E.g. there are the Autobahns, which are financed by the federal state. Than there are Bundesstraßen (Yellow markings, typically something like B56) which are also financed by the feder

As a non linux expert I always wonder where to put crap - most places seem not fit for purpose.

While I understand that, are more deep problem is that their main competitor (gut lab) is too busy to implement the fad of the day. Got labs cicd is already an unholy mess of scripting in yaml, and there is no good way to provide encapsulat

That works when you debug on your machine. Now you get a crash dump from a customer - hove fun replicating their stack exactly.

Thad exactly the problem. At least tooling can solve mono repo problems. But commits , which should span multiple repos, have no tooling at all. Except pain. Lots of pain.

Most languages don't have these facilities at all - so you need to be really careful what you are doing. This works "fine" with test data, because your test data usually is a few hundert items max. A few years back people at

Huh? I have an old hand-powered drill from my Grandpa in my workshop. I used it once for fun. For all other tasks I use a powered drill. Same for IDEs. They help your refactor and reason about code - both properties I value. Sure, I could p

The human brain manages to work with 0.3 kWh per day - even if we say all of that is used for training "models" and for twenty years that's only 2200kwh - much less then what chat needed to train (500mwh?). So there are obvio

I am occasionally on firefighting projects for customers. It's super hard to get out of this mess. The code base has gone to shit, customers are often passed enough that they want functioning code NOW, the reaming developers are bottom

Yes, but it's source control shifted to git years ago (I think you can still use TFS, but it's strongly legacy ) and git is mich better than TFS ever was.

999 or 9999 etc. are extremely common in traditional statistics, especially because there is no known good sentinel value. In many cases I wished that they used the maximum value as a sentinel, e.g. take 255 for a short as invalid and make

Then you end up like some of our customers with log4j. We are consultants and notice that a cave for log4j comes out. We inform our customers that we have detected an issue under active exploit, and we performed an update to non vulnerable

Yes, I'm doing that a lot, too. I'm often astounded how hostile some languages are to later changes - e.g. java always feels resistant to change, while dotnet and especially python are more amenable. I.e. I totally transformed a p

As someone who dies a lot of python, TS, dotnet and java - I disagree. The problem of dotnet and java is that everything is a object. And for many cases, I don't need that object at all, it can be a static class - but honestly, the pyt

What's important for this dialog is time. The Schröder 1 and the Merkel decision are decades old. Would it have been better to keep a health nuclear industry going? Yes, probably. But that was killed for good with 2011 reversal (Merke

I would love if we could improve on HTTP - even just clearly separating protocol from application would be so great. Maybe dropping some cruft, like the accept headers and so on. But yes, doing that is total folly.

The problem ist that there are multiple status codes which should be used (400, 422, 500 etc). But others are massive footguns. Would have been better to have a "technical" status code and a "application status code", bu

I once needed to implement an API in R, just saying that having three or four object oriented systems did not help at all.
