10 was universally understood to be terrible, we're revising it to be good because we're comparing it with 11. That was the start of telemetry, it was forced on people with an upgrade pop-over that if uncancelled would just upgr

Linus is pretty humble tbh, he just expects that people don't throw shit over the fence.

I'm sympathetic, but "bad script" is an awful assertion. We are all guilty of making bad scripts, bash is a disgusting degenerate language (and I love it). The way we learn to write good scripts is by writing bad scripts in

its funny how many people came to me as if I invented this and that I’m wrong by default, but I have never worked in a company that only used an all-in-one solution.

get a workstation laptop then? I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. Your e-bike can’t tow a carriage either, that’s not strange.

I think you missed the point of a netbook. Aside from Microsoft Office, the rest is workstation stuff, and Microsoft Office is pushing "web first" (at least if their pricing is to be believed, the lowest O365 subscriptions do not

Several days and that’s all you came back with. I wouldn’t cast any aspersions of anyone else's intelligence if I were in that position.

"We don't need to spend more" isn't an observation, it's a bet. And you're betting with other people's lives. We’ve already ran this experiment. After Crimea we set ourselves a 2% floor; three countries

In nominal terms "we outspend them" is true, but it misses the forest for the trees. Nominal spend is the wrong yardstick when one side builds at home for a fraction of the cost; Russian labour, steel and energy are far cheaper at

I think that's less true than the media would have you believe. We're undergoing a lot of propaganda about how effective Ukraine is against Russia, but that's despite most European countries practically immolating their own s

Artists in my experience earn a lot less than programmers in gamdev; unless you're a technical artist... which is another type of programming.

last time I tried Linux on ARM (a month ago) nothing worked. No sound, no webcam, no USB-C(iirc) and no video hardware acceleration. It was a Thinkpad T14s with Snapdragon Elite X-2 if it matters.

To be honest, I am currently living with major Schadenfreude regarding ram costs. For literally years , SV companies have had a "ship fast, fuck the users" mentality when it comes to resource usage, as if software is written more

If you take away the "always increasing" price of homes. Is that true. Homes for the majority of human history have not been something that "always appreciates", the condition of the domicile might actually be worth less

Depends where you work. Asana, Notion and Linear have major penetration in small companies. Jira is usually pushed by more corporate types who want to “control” what gets done, not understand it.

The Jira API is less fragile than this, you will still have to change major things to your script when someone adds a field.

Disagreeing with me doesn't prove the point. Deciding he's a Zionist based on what you think he believes, rather than what he's actually said on record, that proves it. Come back with receipts or don't bother. And that
