When it was more about the cars, I liked it. I’m never going to get to drive an old Porsche around, so it was interesting seeing someone who wasn’t an auto journalist talk about the car while they drove it.

Then it turned into two guys jacking each other off, and I lost interest.

“Unionize, join the party, and eat the rich.”

That tracks. I volunteered with a week long program to teach html and the basics of building a website, and I went back to work after day one because all the students picked social media marketing. 😆

Aren’t setters and getters discouraged in Python?

I remember reading something like, “This isn’t C++ , and Python doesn’t have private vars. Just set the var directly.”

Yeah, Alex is going to make some cash and have an art career. Unlike his teacher.

(Teachers are great and put up with all the dumb shit kids create, so not knocking teachers. Just dunking on this joke.)

Debian in WSL is my single favorite thing about Windows work laptop. Real tools! 😃

I’m back on windows for work after a decade away, and all the reasons I left are still there. The tools are still lacking, the layout is non-sensical, prototyping requires expensive subscriptions, and it’s not designed to get work done.

*nixes and macOS, to a lesser extent, are much nicer. The *nixes are designed to get work done. I have my gripes, but good lord they’re small comparatively.

They are back! We’ll see for how long.

I don’t want to disappoint gay guys.

Gents, this is not for you; it’s for her. 🙂

True. Ideally the Amish would have a “immigrated”, assimilated, and become another tribe in the area hundreds of years ago. However, this is still a better outcome than the tribes still litigating treaties signed hundreds of years ago, like in Oklahoma.

“Surprising” or “unexpected” are probably a better words due to connotations and all.

Agreed.

Vim/Neovim and Spacemacs (Emacs) are so much more addictive than NPP.

That’s cool if NPP is OP’s thing, but there are quite a few text editors which check those boxes in the *nix world.

It is, which is rather annoying.

I should spend some more time with the FOSS forges, but bare git works for me when I’m self-hosting my own repos.

The workflow is also kind of obtuse.

FD: I prefer GitLab between the two.

It’s possible. That’s basically web scraping.

IMF stopping in here. Good job France! Couldn’t have done it better!

I’ve gotta go sign up some more countries for predatory loans and strangle some economies. Tootles!

So this is how the tech dark ages start. The last 40yrs are erased, and we end up back in 1979 where everyone is selling a tech stack and nothing is compatible.

Rebuilding around something which isn’t C would be a bright side.

Qualcomm buying Intel would be a top 3 worst case. Broadcom or Marvel would be the other two.

Some funny scenarios: Nvidia buys Intel, IBM buys Intel, Apple buys Intel.

You’re not participating in the capitalist system. You need a mortgage and credit card debt.

JetBrains Rider is probably the best C# IDE for Linux, and MS ported .NET server stuff a while ago.

I’m not sure about C# GUI toolkits on Linux. WPF isn’t there, and I’m not sure how mature Maui is on Linux.

The post is about the genocide of Native Americans. Natives originally lived in the Midwest, and now they don’t.

Also, Indiana is the only state to be taken over by the KKK, and the North was racist in its own way.

Debian.
