Hilarious coincidence. Just as I clicked on link I had coughed so took a moment to say amazed if i had spit out all the freckles on the page.

Because it's being sold off as the terminal technology and if you aren't in on the final and ultimate technological innovation you will be for forever behind and never catch up.

Recently ive gotten into Unity. Have made games before but always avoided engines. This time im taking a deeper dive and want to learn at least the basics of a animations, lightening, movement and lay around with interesting combat variations.

C# is fine since i already know java.

Fcb for me it's ads, ads ads and even more ads. The newsfeed is complete slop from news outlets. It's just extremely noisy. The only thing that I use there is the Messenger because my older friends aren't too savvy with Whatsapp.

And even the Messenger app is a sloppy behemoth of an app with barely working Search. This is coming from a company with thousands of engineers and the core features of the business barely work.

98% of newsfeed is recommendation slop.

What good has Meta even done?

They harm teen mental health with their products and farm user data. What an achievement of youth to waste it on that noble mission.

What an imbecillic thing to say and shamelessly glossed with some autistic idea of maximizing info throughout.

Prose is an art form, reading 100 years of solitude is not the same as reading the news.

Likely scam, rarely does someone have a first name of Jurassic.

I am against this but acting like LinkedIn isn’t basically a database of pictures is naive.

You want to date your pic ends up on a server.

That’s just the way this works.

If this is true: "AI is gonna take everyone’s jobs" then AI is the terminal technology and everyone who doesn't want to be poor forever needs to throw all their money in it.

Of course it impacts company valuation.

Dumb thing to ask tbh.

Dangerous new tech with military applications sounds harder to ignore than AI that spits out text.

Yet the measures taken far exceeded the damage than if we had let the virus take its course.

The problem wasn't the mortality rate, it's the fact that the media can cleverly turn something in a huge deal by talking endlessly about it. During COVID, there was no other news except the virus on news for 24/7.

the bar is higher and higher for less and less. donezo as a career.

Giant of a man standing at 5'10, felt no need to ever lie about my height.

It is bizarre. C is bizarre, there is no string type and there should've been a string type. scanf is an invitation for buffer overflow attacks. I know how poorly designed languages look like and C despite its strengths is still a poorly designed language.

Overkill. React mogs.

Why doesn’t the machine fill up the other cache lines as well why is 64 bytes only and then a miss?

Beside the point, why is the US in decline?

C is pretty bizarre but I expect someone writing it professionally to know that even passing void compareStrings(char str1[], char str2[]) is equivalent to compareStrings(char * str1, char * str2) so no way to get the length of it with sizeof(str1) and strlen walks the string until it finds the null terminator.

today it's paxos/raft questions for an internship writing Next.js for 10$ an hour.

I know, especially, unemployed cats.

Yes, the next year off as well because they will fire you.

spill the tea, fired or quit?

Geohot's next venture will be writing a book titled "Fear & Trembling".

I wonder if Google was the X factor why Python edged out Ruby.

Why does Ruby still have this artisinal aura to it, never seen C/C++ For Good gathering.

What problem does Docker solve which is fundamental? None. Zero. Zilch. I've used it two times and except burning dev time with its random BS has no benefit whatsoever. I guess if you run a 200K line app and working with 20 devs will make things slightly easier?

On M1 launching the docker containers lagged the entire system.

Trying to mount a volume caused issues. (known issue) The official web app advertisies it as multiplatform which it's not.

Anything more complex than hello world become a nightmare on Docker. PM2 as process manager and simple bash scripts demolish Docker which sounds too good in theory but is half-baked in practice.

That's not going to work, that's a static file.

Golang gives you a web server as a staticly linked binary.

Ditch docker and use Golang to bring it to 4MB.

Consular processing isn't that backlogged for majority of countries that's what i meant.

Why on earth would they need to wait years?
