Thinkpad t480s with Ubuntu. I'll give the whole experience a 8/10. Speakers and mic are really bad for the price.

When I look back to using and writing Ansible I experienced it as my personal dark ages. I'm so happy I embraced immutable infrastructure. I never needed Ansible anymore.

Did gizmodo dumb this down so much it becomes impossible to understand? Is it really the fibonacci sequence being a true missing link here? Or does the pattern just need to be pseudo random and/or increasing? /edit seems I read a

It's still ridiculous that we ever thought giving Java processes so much memory was normal. I'm very happy golang and rust are getting more main stream.

Considered it. Iirc, it doesn't have a backlight, as the reading part was more important than the writing part, the choice was easily made. I remember remarkable saying the extra layer needed for the backlight would be detrimental for

This. My 10" e reader, boox note 2, is a godsend. It runs a barebones android which gives you almost zero distractions. Annotations are great with the touch sensitive pen. My reading increased 5-10x, b/c the friction to get that h

Will you be my colleague please? This is idd the time to place a comment, yet so many people don't do that.

I find the op's perspective weird as well, though I have colleagues which reason like this at well when I point to those blogs/talks of 2014-2016 during reviews -- "that can't be the way to do it 8 years later right?&quo

Actually during high school they did tell us salaries and perspectives. That was al part of a course called "choice study". This just reaffirmed my choice for CS. This was around 2000 and in the Netherlands. I was fine with being

Repeat these kinds of posts often enough and they will end up in machine GPT-3 for generated comments on link sites.

The black Swan Previous book was the innovators dilemma. Both are kind of cliche books, good reads though which pull me out of the IT technical stuff which one has to read nowadays to keep up. Of course there's my eternal struggle to r

25y life expectancy is a lie. I've seen it with my own panels which were installed by the former owner. Nobody checks if these things are still working correctly. In my case after just 4y every panel was subpar And 2 of 12 were simply

You would not succeed for a msc without proper knowledge of undergrad stuff at my uni. Msc is about doing research not about becoming a good programmer.

Yep, as a dutchman I'm amazed at the amount of German people not being able to speak English. They usually take for granted that dutch people will just speak German to them, which I can't, even after 4years of high school German.

I'm definitely not the fondest user of PHP. There is an extreme gap between the users and the ones being able to develop the language. That gap for example, is a lot smaller in Golang. Language improvements didn't happen until Hac

I'd rather handhold juniors in a way that I know what they're going to fail on. I won't pre-empt them in all cases, because failing is such a good way of learning. That doesn't mean I just let them fuck around, it is t
