I play counterstrike and I frequently is at the top spot in death match games, beating second place with twice their score sometimes.

I'm 47. My reaction time hasn't slowed at all. My memory have a little bit though.

Those companies do not track and save private search information about every human on the planet.

Google can affect what every human thinks about anything, because they control the worlds information.

Nobody really understood the full power of a search engine that becomes a near monopoly until it happened.

Gnome 42 Released 4 years ago

For me KDE is too buggy. Always issues with everything from the indexer going nuts to random theme clutches etc...

I want this so bad. Hopefully it comes into Arch quickly.

There has been rumours that theming may be dead though? Appearently it's harder to theme things in Gnome 42 but I don't know why.

I never got exited about micro services because I understood that the complexity would be unreal.

I was watching as the industry went all in on something fundamentally wrong. It didn't make anything better, it made everything worse.

Now we are looking back and wanting monorepos, monoliths with simple code, and low complexity.

It's always interesting how people's experiences are so different. At many of my jobs, airflow has just worked perfectly and we never even had to think about it.

But i welcome alternatives since I think it has become way too complicated now, and it's not necessary for most people with all the complexity (distributed tasks with celery comes to mind).

Intel has absolutely been lazy and literally just gave 5% performance increase per year for quite some time. When AMD was making shitty processors, Intel was just trying to squeeze as much money as possible from marginal upgrades.

You can run Windows on a Intel cpu that is 10 years old and notice hardly any difference in performance.

And on the other hand, they changed everything. Their cpus are actually innovative and really fast, and brought the entire multi core thing into consumer hands in a real way.

A download identifier really isn't that bad. Maybe they need to actually show some numbers of their downloads to justify budgets and other things.

It's not like they are having tracking JavaScript on 80% of the worlds Web sites like someone else I know, starting with Googl...

This is a great example of making a tech stack more complicated for almost no real value.

Developers joining the team now must understand nix, scripting and a lot of other things just to build a simple docker image.

Just stop.
