IDEs have had subscriptions for ages. The build server is a cloud service because local machines can be slow to compile and not everyone has an on-site build server.

Which one of them is the one that referred to workers as niggers in their codebase?
Google is allowing the app developers to choose (for now?). With Apple, developers never had the option to allow other stores or sideloading.
Ours has decided that she’s no longer a princess, she’s now Skye. I think mommy was Everest and I’m Rubble. It’s funny, because I always associated myself with Rubble the most, particularly after watching the Mighty Movie where Rubble goes “what, did you think I was going to watch the space thingy of a lifetime without snacks?” (exact wording may differ; I have to watch it in Estonian)
I live around 60 degrees North :)
Eh I can barely breathe at 30. 40 is certain death. Except in a sauna, where 100 is no problem and we throw water on the rocks to make it feel hotter.
I know, it’s weird. I’ve got pictures of me lying around in a pile of snow in a t-shirt, trying to cool down. At -15.
That’s only half the story, too.
The phone with the $1300 launch price is also obsolete, it hasn’t gotten a major Android version update since 13, released in 2022. The phone itself was released in 2021.
Apple also discontinued support for some older phones with their 2022 OS release. Namely, they dropped anything older than the iPhone 8, released in 2017. So the oldest Sony I to get a major OS version update in 2022 was made in 2021, the oldest iPhone was made in 2017.
By the way, this comes from someone who used to love Sony and still does. My Arc S was awesome, it was even designed in such a way that if you dropped it, nothing would happen generally (okay, the battery would fall out if you dropped from high enough). But they’ve really dropped the ball on software support.
I’m lucky enough that both of the shareholders of my company are software engineers; one has transitioned to sales and project management, the other is still an engineer, he’s also the CTO.
Was discussing office chairs with our team lead/office supplies person (it’s a really small company, some people have multiple roles) and when I mentioned that my chair gets really creaky when leaning back but otherwise it works so it really just needs some lubrication, she asked why I would even lean so far back in my chair and the CTO told her “There’s two sitting positions for programming. The writing position and the thinking position”
TL;DR: Takes an engineer to know how engineering works. Turns out that you have to spend a lot of time just thinking
Celsius isn’t all that different.
-30 is really really cold, 30 is really really hot.
0 is just about perfect.
I diagram everything out in my brain and it evolves continuously while I’m writing code
Sometimes I feel it’s a miracle I get anything done at all but then usually the end result is better than what I’d originally envisioned so it kinda balances out.
But think about arguing online! It’s apparently a hobby and to be competitive, you need to be able to spew bullshit at amazing rates. Personally I’ve maxed out at 140 wpm, but usually stay in the 100 wpm range.
Programming? Idk, I spend more time thinking than typing personally. Good code requires you to consider all the corner cases and such.
They haven’t, but some still sell beer by pints. I can go to a store right now (well not right now, it’s past 10 PM) and buy a pint sized beer and a 0.5l beer from the same company.
Facebook 15 years ago wasn’t all that bad tbh. It was nice being able to write to just about anyone you met in real life.
It’d already been getting worse for a while, but to me, the 2016 US election was when things got super obvious. Same with reddit. Can’t believe it’s been 8 years already.
This shit right here is why people buy Apple. You sell your soul to the devil and get convenience in return.
Don’t get me wrong - both my work laptop and my gaming PC run Linux. But my phone is still an iPhone and if I ever have need for a personal laptop again, it’s gonna be a Macbook Air again.
You can’t fit it in Wordle with a hard R
But you CAN fit it without it
Yeah, and those are for women /s
Us nerds might not run the world, but we run the Internet which all the non-nerds depend on. Checkmate, atheists everyone
Gender neutral pronouns might be pretty huge too, but nobody’s private data is getting hacked because of gendered pronoun use.
I hope it succeeds just enough to take the right wing nutters off YouTube and give YouTube an incentive to improve its service. But that it stays unsuccessful enough that it keeps burning a hole in Elon’s pocket
