The second paragraph seems at odds with the first. I'd describe a culture where people are making bets on whether or not you can find a bug in someone else's work is the opposite of blameless. I'd consider it quite hostile, t

It's a sad state of things. I've grew unsensitised to that sort of things. Nowadays I usually automatically ignore that and what my brain perceives as ads. They all became background noise to me at this point.

Making such a bet is not a really professional thing to do. Regardless of the actual risk it introduces. If I was a manager in that company and two of my employees made such a bet I'd be tempted to fire both or, at the very least, have

What are you going to do? Block access to any pypi.org package except for whitelisted ones? You can try to mitigate things by perhaps blocking access to any pypi repos that's also available internally but that haven't been release

It's possible to mitigate, but it's impossible to realistically prevent unless you disconnect your employees from the internet. Which is probably costlier than any losses they are ever likely to end up having due to this.

Being english-like is just appearances. SQL is really just relational algebra (the traditional querying bit of it, at least) with some technical limitations. But in essence, it's relational algebra and it works well because the topic w

I'm referring to the article about PHP. Even the strings being different, they compare to true.

They are the same type and represent the same number. Just different literals. "ABC" is also the same as "A" + "B" + "C".

Yeah, that makes sense. It's actually not that surprising when you think about it. I'm not sure how vampires deal with Twilight. There's a long twilight in those regions.

That's more sensible though. It's just trying to interpret the invention when comparing different types. The fact that == breaks even when the types are the same is much more surprising

Do you know for a fact that it was all written by the current maintainer? Though, even if it was. I'm not sure they are intentionally not admitting a mistake. When you work in a shop with blameless culture, you end up learning to alway

Doesn't the poles get normalish day/night cycles during autumn and spring? If so, it would be a bit more than just a few hours of sun light each year.

Ah, that's good. I thought some of the references were regarding the engineer you were pairing with.

Yes, I see what you mean. But just like you're being less productive when you try to instruct someone else on how to do things, if you follow that path with ChatGPT you'll likely be less productive too. I think ChatGPT adds more v

Not sure if I'd compare ChatGPT with a junior programmer. In my experience junior programmers tend to be builders. They will tend to code a lot of stuff and usually get reasonable results, but making some bad decisions that more experi

Yeah. Looks a bit dodgy. It's better than downloading a torrent (because who knows what's in that torrent?), but legally it may be about the same.

Is that legal?

What's 12,000,000,000? The world population is roughly 8 billion, so that can't be the number of users. Maybe number of views?

The public transport is operated by the government. They consider no one should work on Saturdays so they don't run their services then. I think if using your private car was forbidden it would've been even crazier.

They already had a total size limit. The complaint is that they introduced a new one without really telling anyone.

We are part of nature, so all we do is also nature's doing. I think you're anthropomorphising earth. Earth and nature don't care about anything. You may argue that the way we are modifying the environment around us is not goo
