There are people using xmpp? Last time I set up a server and tried using it with Pidgin, I couldn’t find a soul that used it

Has happened to me lol

Woah a Chinese owned company is crushing a labor union? Who would’ve guessed!

That 1 Windows-only program they use is probably not compatible with the next version of Windows too

No it probably is, Microsoft puts a ton of effort into backwards compatibility

Oh man a Chinese-owned company crushed a labor union? Who could’ve seen that coming??

It’s perhaps the most useful $10 I’ve ever spent and I’m frankly surprised this doesn’t exist on other systems

Microsoft powertoys has this feature for free

Look fuck Donald Trump but surely you must realize this comic is so far up its own ass it’s going to become a right wing meme when they finally see it

I could but I’d still be getting the same Firefox which has a nagging incentive to cooperate with advertisers and google. The benefit of having to pay for software is that their revenue stream comes directly from me and not from a 3rd party. It’s not about supporting the developer for me, it’s about knowing that the product I pay for is the product I get

If its an application I run locally, I rarely grep logs (they’re small enough that I can just ctrl+f). If it’s something running in production with millions of lines of logs, then I agree

I wish all the logs at my company were as beautiful as these terminal logs

Sure, look at their personal projects. I’m just saying the maintainability and quality of the code and speed of iteration is more of the point than how impressive the math is behind an ML algorithm. I’ve just seen a lot of ML engineers/data scientists who really suck at writing maintainable code

I got a simple Casio for my birthday and I don’t think I’ll ever need another watch, unless I lose this one. People say “oh it tracks how many steps I took today”, but I don’t know why I would need to know that information

I know I’m in the minority but I would pay yearly to use Firefox. Not sure how much I’d pay, but I am getting into the habit of purchasing software instead of allowing it to purchase me

I honestly don’t think that doing these cool things improves your odds of getting hired. Junior Devs don’t really touch these parts of a platform, let alone lead development on them from scratch.

A valuable engineer, to me, is someone who writes clean, maintainable code and follows common patterns. That’s also something which has to be learned by trial and error to actually see the value of.

I literally have no clue what the point of these devices is

Do monitors keep a stable amount of features from one generation to the next? I mean the only real reason to upgrade a monitor is for new features, not because it has incrementally improved on the features it already offered, or size maybe. What would be the basis for calling something a “porkchop” vs a “lizard milkshake”

I guess you could have like 3 tiers of features, going from Cheapest to most Expensive (i.e, lower end is 60hz, higher end 120+hz) and then each generation you know which monitor is “better”

Would love for squenix to bring back Anachronox
