Because world is binary and the only two choices are capitalism and communism, right?

I think this is great for: a) people who are visually impaired or have issues with their hands/fingers b) people who aren't programmers; if you could make it more Scratch-like then this is amazing tool for showing off power of programming

It's never going to be over. All the easy interesting problems were solved years ago. Now you have to work really hard to come up with something technology related that hasn't been done before.

Have you tried using git worktree?

I agree 101% on Kindle. Bought mine (Oasis 2) 3 years ago and since then the amount of books I read skyrocketed. Absolutely worth every penny.

Stack Overflow survey (https://insights.stackoverflow.com/survey/2019#development-e...) has Vim at ~25% while Emacs is at 4.5%.

Waste/garbage created by humans is probably an easy source of food for them.

Are grocery shops considered critical?

You might find some weird hack in codebase that isn't obvious what it does at the first glance. This isn't something that people document in official documentation but even finding a JIRA ticket that is linked with that specific commit can help tremendously.

There is a great plugin for browsers called 'news feed eradicator'. It's great because it turns facebook into messenger with notification center when somebody mentions you or there is event coming up.

I reckon Microsoft can be even worse considering how much data they gather about you through telemetry built in Windows. Imagine if you're web dev using windows and edge along with vscode. Oof.

But this is for top 1% streamers. Average streamer makes nothing close to what average programmer makes and it's much, much easier to be average programmer. Plus 1% programmers are probably better compensated than 1% streamers.

It absolutely is. That's what we do at company I work for. We use free gitlab mintues and when it runs out we use runner running on one of our own local machines.

My guess would be that it's easier to get tech support for windows than linux.

Nazis started with just saying bad things as well.

Exactly. One package that costs 5 cents more? 10? 100? Not a big deal.

50 millions packages that cost 5 cents more? Kind of big deal.

Turns out the guy who wrote Baba Yetu (civilization 4 theme song which won grammy) is in the comments too, thanking Steven https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/au2rjb/i_am_steven_pr.... What a small world we live in.

Finland became the first European country to test out the idea of an unconditional basic income.

Isn't unconditional, you know, unconditional? As opposed to "From January 2017 until December 2018"?

I like to think about Eve vs. other MMOs as in Eve is an unsupervised sandbox without any adults where all the kids from neighborhood come to play and other MMOs are more like going to a theme park with your parents.

Just FYI on the internet she's listed as 'Tara Westover'.

I'm starting to get my life on track.

I learned how insanely important initiative in life is. Being the guy who not only comes up with idea but also says "I'll do it" has immense value. I started leading a small team while being underqualified for the job and there were two things that greatly helped me understand the value of initiative. First was showing my boss a CI/CD pipeline that I implemented that everyone was talking about. That made my boss believe that I can do what I was talking about and consequently I have a free reign in implementing new changes (it helps that we're small software house). Second thing was talking with developers. A lot of them have ideas what they would like to see changed that would help them in their daily work but they also claim that they do not have time to make those changes (which is sometimes fair point). So we're sitting at a lot of great ideas that need 'just' implementing.

Second thing I learned is the value of discipline and having a rhythm to your day. Wake up, eat breakfast, run your morning routine, go to work, go to gym, do evening stuff, run your before bed routine. Basically have a plan for your day. Like they say 'Failing to plan is planning to fail'.

We may not have the resources that an Activision or EA have to launch one of their tentpole games

GTA 5 had budget of $265M (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_of_Grand_Theft_Aut...). Assuming info on wiki is correct SC is nearing 200M (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Citizen#Funding) which isn't too far off from GTA budget.

Would it be possible to put compromised package in Debian repository? Or has something like this happened in the past?

Why is it not practical? We're taught in schools that water freezes below 0C and boils above 100C thus more than 0 = hotter, less than 0 = colder, more than 100 = you're melting. If you wake up and see less than 0 on thermometer you know it's freezing time.

On nightly, never had ublock or umatrix uninstalled.

Rose colored glasses. You remember all the good stuff with none of the bad stuff. Remember programming in that time? HTML, CSS, JS? Internet Explorer 6?

As to how to make friends in your 30s - pick up dancing. Salsa, bachata, salsa cubana, kizomba all are build on idea of social dancing. You go to a party and dance with random people. Try it.

I remember reading somewhere that supposedly when fsck was first introduced there was different letter in place of s.

Do you/did you have clinically diagnosed depression?

Did you have clinically diagnosed depression?

Looks nice. It would be incredible if it supported autocompletion of table names and queries.
