Django’s ORM is the first one that I ever spent a lot of time with. Throughout my career I’ve interacted with other ORMs from time to time. It wasn’t until I’d done that, that I realised, even though it’s not perfect, how fantastic the Djan

Yeah, especially if we’re calling it TCP! :)

A hot standby / failover still meets this definition. That’s how I interpreted what was being described.

As someone in leadership, my ‘strong opinion held loosely’ on this, is that there’s absolutely no way to meaningfully build this skill in people, in a theoretical setting. You can, at best, make them aware that there is such thing as “too m

Back at uni, we had a 200-level ‘software engineering’ unit, largely introducing everyone to a variety of ‘patterns’. Reading the Gang of Four book, blah blah blah. You get the idea. Our final assignment for this unit was to build a piece o

lol. “realizing”? This is not the coalface of class warfare. How dramatic.

Thankfully you can ask for your money back.

Who said anything about the boot?

China is by basically all accounts running rings around the US, based on current behaviour, whilst being a much more authoritarian regime. America loves to pretend that no other data points exist so they can attribute whatever good performa

No, you see US-headquartered multinationals have a God-given right to freedom, including the freedom to smuggle customer data overseas. God bless America.

God. Thank you. All these LLM conversations are making me hate this website so much, because apparently at some point actual scientific enquiry took a back seat, and turning one’s nose up at anything in a blatant attempt to seem smart has t

This is a fantastic comment because of how right you think you are, how utterly wrong you are in reality, and the context being the assertion that people don’t like to feel stupid. Thank you so much for this. In the metaphorical galaxy brai

Kind of. I work with a lot of curricula. There are degrees of specificity. Common core is, notably, absurdly specific, and dense. It’s the US at its best, which is to say its worst. Including the fact that CC hasn’t ever really been touched

There is a massive range of ability, knowhow, ongoing professional development, etc within “teachers”. The US is in itself a good example of this. In some areas, teaching is a white collar profession. In others, it’s blue collar. In my coun

…who are you talking to?

by cqqxo4zV46cp 2y ago
What? Nobody is talking about “giving them everything”. This isn’t just the Windows hate thread. There’s an actual topic.

You’re inviting a billion replies about how on Linux you have the absolute freedom to install any of a number of inscrutably hard to use, abandoned, system configuration utilities, or edit some equally inscrutable file written in one greybe

This isn’t any better. Are you an IC? All you’re probably saying is, “the people that I work with more directly, that share the same organisational context as me, that I personally can relate to, etc are good, and the other ones aren’t”.

I think that they’re looking for intelligent, insightful analysis. As opposed to the myriad parroted HN comments on the subject, written by developers that pretend that their expertise is somehow transferable.
21.
by cqqxo4zV46cp 2y ago
It’s almost like what snobby self-important dev communities like vs dislike is as arbitrary as they are in any other group. It’s just that for some reason developers are delusional enough to think that they’re actually smart.

This…isn’t S3. Bandwidth is just part of how they’re segmenting.

Heh. I wasn’t so lucky, and it was the morning of a flight. Never had more of a reason to pull the forget on the $15 2-hour delivery Apple offers in my area.

Not a day goes by where there isn’t some greybeard having a huge sulk about how nobody wants to use his collection of esoteric bash scripts that nobody else will ever understand, but HE does.

Don’t conflate this with the ongoing trendy systemd hate. There are myriad other attack vectors out there.

Oh man! I’d forgotten all about the UnrealIRCd backdoor! I was running an IRC network at the time. What a blast from the past.

Yes. If there’s one thing we Aussies can’t do well, it’s solar. /s

It’d also be pretty naive, speaking to your seemingly quite narrow experience with the outside world. So, thank goodness you didn’t say it.

I trust that you’re all done patting each other on the back now, yes?

Yep. Frankly, these articles are just keyboard warrior antics from introverts that are feeling on top of the world with the wave of WFH. Conflating “what’ll get me back to my IDE faster” and “how can I make all communication so structured t
