That's true. Agree there.

I use the cheap Muji ones and the Muji gel pens (which are refillable for under <£1) https://www.muji.eu/product/recycling-paper-notebook-dark-gr... https://www.muji.eu/product/gel-ink-ballpoint

So much this. We need something which fits in the space that 8+ year old vehicles exist in now. Which isn’t dealer serviced subscription shiny shit that costs a small fortune.

I agree. However the ChatGPT situation is the first hype that’s really been harmful rather than just disruptive. It can and is being used to generate low accuracy noise which degrades quality information. I suspect our demise isn’t going to

Am in this situation. The 3-4 load isn’t caused by me but is the minimum work necessary to keep the company from crashing and burning. The cause was a cargo cult restructuring that caused enough ceremony, overhead and friction that ingraine

Well the mechanical keyboards, the key caps start falling off and won't stay on or the crappy lead free solder gives out on the keyswitches. The rubber dome ones, the rubber domes wear out and crap gets in and then it's end of the

I'm sort of on the fence on that one still. The web is a fucking mess these days and the well developed apps are quite refreshing in comparison to half baked piles of excrement web offerings from the big technology companies and open s

Not a fan of the idea: 1. I don't look at a keyboard so there's not much point in making it look fancy. 2. I destroy keyboards in 12 months. Even good quality mechanical ones. I probably can't afford to own this. 3. It looks

Eich doesn't seem like the sort of person who makes mistakes, preferring to do a PR backtrack after misjudging his audience after comparing them to his own dubious standards. Never the sort who thinks they did something wrong but likes

This instantly puts me off WhatsApp from a reliability perspective. Your identity needs to be decoupled from something someone else controls.

You could build a ray casting engine, textures and maps that would fit in that easily. It might not be doom but something similar is possible.

As someone with an EE degree I would agree with this. I was disappointed to find out that my career was mostly cutting and pasting stuff out of datasheets and using crib spreadsheets written by some revered dead guy who didn't haven an

Both of them run like shit in my experience. I mean Discord is basically mIRC that looks a bit better with a shit version of zoom strapped on the side.

If you stick with Ubuntu LTS you have to put up with the bugs they never fix for longer!

I had that a while ago. MySQL in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS was a complete fuck up with loads of upstream bugs that weren't patched out. Unfortunately company policy was only Ubuntu with system packages. Eventually I persuaded them to let me use

Debian is pure + quality control. Arch is just pure. Also I want to use Linux to solve problems, not create problems that need solving :)

1. Correct. 2. Yes they have. Half their developer tools were rewritten in WPF, they offered huge stacks including CRM on top of Silverlight and a huge chunk of windows 11 front end is WinUI. 3. Teams fucking sucks. VS Code is heading in th

I am glad to hear this. The more things that are directly derived from Debian the better. It's one of the last respectable Linux distributions without vendor crapware and customisations stuffed in it by default.

It's not /that/ expensive if you stick to B&W. I mean I can pick up a fairly good 35mm Praktica body, Zeiss nifty fifty, some rolls of Ilford, all the chemicals, tank, dark room bag and film puller for less than half the

Good times indeed. I had a Bronica SQ-Ai in the 90s. Sold it all and went digital when the Nikon D100 came out. Now well in Nikon Z land. Sometimes I want to go back to film. Not necessarily large format as I would hate to lug the things ar

While in jest, this is so accurate that it's not funny. I've seen the outbound version of this which gets sent to our customers: Dear customer, extra 20% this year, kthx.

I don't think you are living in the real world. Most React applications do not end up like that in the real world. They turn into poorly architected over complicated nightmares, particularly on sprawling apps which is the reality in th

I’ve never seen it happen either. But the point is this allows them to be bypassed entirely.

It’s not loose schema at all. All the tools that wrap it are. You don’t know something is going to work unless you actually do it.

Try selling React shit to corporates who have corporate malware infested Edge running on overloaded Citrix nodes or the average corporate android that was made about 3 years ago. We still get <100ms page delivery with server side renderi

I expect hoards of graphic designers to arrive at Redmond with pitchforks and torches this afternoon.
