Not all code is enterprise code. For the last 5 years of my professional career I use Python almost exclusively. >There are too many ways to do the same thing, (...) Fair, but that's a funny statement to make because Python from the

I think we just have to agree to disagree. My point was, modern Windows is nothing like Windows 95, just like modern command line experience is nothing like MS-DOS (as you seem to imply). Given a choice I strongly prefer command line for mo

Dockerfiles are more versatile. For example Kubernetes also uses Docker images (thanks to the OCI specification), but you don't configure Kubernetes with docker-compose.yml files, and Kubernetes usually doesn't even use Docker und

>Hint: "I'm sure your language is fine" in no way implies that dang said "the language is fine". This made me realise how trying to sound polite may completely obfuscate what you want to say.

It's very hard to find a source of a radio signal sent from a middle of nowhere (having only a few trains to trinagulate). Of course we should do this, but if someone starts abusing this to raise chaos in the country, we may have no ot

Sadly, given the current situation, we'll probably have to migrate from the current (easy to use and available) system to something more secure (and fragile). Some people will die, but if that happens again there's not much choice

What's wrong with getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem?

These are different kinds of problems. JSON is (arguably) too strict. YAML is (arguably) too loose. One is better for machines, the other is (usually) better for writing by humans by hand. There's no perfect compromise for every use ca

I don't get your point. Are you defending people driving drunk in the USA because they are more likely to be caught? In my country it's also common to get caught after being stopped for speeding or car malfunction (like missing he

I'm pretty sure it's not. Maybe you wish it was, but it's not. C is still commonly used as a "lowest common denominator" language, and other languages often use bindings to native C libraries. This is still very com

I don't use bash so it's not applicable to me anyway, but why would I want it on? It's saving a few bytes of disk space, at the cost of ruining my history (the thing that the whole feature is about). At least fish's sear

Looks interesting! Unfortunately looks like it's not packaged for my distro (NixOs) yet. I'll test it on a VM and if I like it I'll try to contribute a flake.nix to run it natively on NixOs.

That's not what enshittifying means. I noticed that there are many assumptions in your post: 1. all leftists/progressives are obnoxious/preponent/deranged (I personally disagree) 2. only leftists/progressives are al

Not sure this works for everyone. Anecdotal evidence, but I always hated watching conventionally "funny" stuff (media created for the purpose of getting a laugh response, like comedy movies), but I believe my sense of humour is OK

I don't think you was the asshole, but I think (i.e. in my cultural circle) that's too public. I would send this message only to the person responsible, and if necessary sent a much softer message to the team like "I noticed

I can't figure out if you're patronising on purpose, or genuinely polite. FWIW I suspect it's the later, and your sorrys and smiles are meant to soften the blow. But I guess that highlights the issue - it's sometimes har

But you need a way to identify people. If there's no good way to identify real people (government issued ID number), those that need them will invent bad ones (SSN, phone number, maiden name, maybe more). And companies like Google have

I agree with you in principle, but sometimes I get my "anonymous" mood and only use Whonix, anonymous imageboards and share files using solutions similar to anonfiles. I don't really have anything to hide, I just want to spit

How is this exploitation? Did anyone force him to sign this contract? I'm from a rather poor country, and when I was starting in my career I would absolutely love to earn $10/hour. In fact that would be a dream salary for me. $2.5

I feel like most of the problems raised in this blog post can be solved with a proper reproducible build system - for example NixOs (or guix if you will) derivations. It's true that Dockerfiles are not reproducible, but at least they&#
