To be fair they are working on legislation to ban disposable vapes now. And they've been seizing millions of illegal and dangerous ones for ages. And the water companies are getting fined heavily for dumping sewage.

This really annoys me. Instead of working out new ways to get rid of stupid things we created, we stop making stupid things like this in the first place. Granted the knowledge is applicable to non-stupid things, but we need to start asking

Basically, as per everything these days, the entire software industry is based on "download and run any old shit off the Internet" with little to no fucks given about the source or trustworthyness or correctness. End users are no

I expect a reasonably large holiday entitlement, fully remote working and a realistic salary, not reduced by the benefits package. The benefits are however much less important than not working for complete fuckwits. Edit: +healthcare if I l

Microservices is mostly an RDD (Resume Driven Development) practice I've found. Really, as the article says correctly and hilariously, unless you're a greenfield or exceptionally large, you end up with a fleet of shitty golf carts

I've stopped forcing myself on Microsoft. Works wonders. Moved my workflow off the platform over the last 6 months entirely.

The moment this sort of hypothesis turns up I always crow cite your sources . There's very little academic honesty in the area of psychology, a lot of it being coming up with an idea that sounds about right, finding a minuscule datase

If you provision the whole disk up front i.e. reserve space then it'll be near native. That applies to Hyper-V, VMWare Workstation and VirtualBox VMs. WSL this is not necessarily the case. I don't use WSL for a number of reasons i

I was a BeOS user for a few months back in the day. That would be perfect but no I need to use things which are on macOS.

He's just damaged by that lot. I had an ex girlfriend who was one of them. I annoyed her by playing black metal all the time instead.

I'll sound like a miserable old bastard here, which I am, but I'm all for bringing back Gopher and banning any non native applications on a platform. Electron I'm looking at you. All the native apps on my Mac desktop, an ass

Yup the chip surge isn't anywhere over due to geopolitics and demand, both of which are serious driving forces now.

This does not surprise me in the slightest. I got a whole diatribe and stream of insults when a user complained that we’d epoxied the USB holes in his desktop PC because he couldn’t bring his music in on a USB stick. This was an airgapped n

Not always. Some of them still value customers and are at least attempting to go in the correct direction for society. This one, not so much.

I still do a "virtual" version of this with GoodNotes on an iPad and Zoom. It feels better than using Powerpoint.

Ah man just looking at that list makes me glad for EKS. But thanks for the effort, I will read to learn more.
