If you play AAA games with kernel anti-cheat then Wine and Proton are basically non-starters. Cant sidestep that a vast majority of people want to play those games.

Oh man this takes me back to map making days with q3radiant and gtkradiant.

I miss the days of shooters with strong community run servers.

Doesn't seem that wild if youre doing large green field dev with frontier models.

Im spending about 2-3K a week on personal projects and 5K a week on corporate stuff.

Their competitors eat them. I would not be surprised to see Oracle's cloud business get absorbed by IBM or Microsoft. Maybe Amazon. The extra DC capacity is valuable to a couple companies right now.

Seriously its easy to build prototypes with AI and benchmark...

They absolutely paid someone off somewhere, let's be real.

You completely misunderstood what I was saying.

Hellscape? You mean money train! Fixing all these messes is gonna employ an industry of senior, principal and staff engineers for years.

Democrats aren't winning the Senate. They are not lock ins for the House either.

I dont know what is so difficult about this for you.

Nothing of substance will change in 2026. That goose is cooked already after all the gerry mandering

Hahaha... regulation lol. That aint happening in the US. If you do see regulation it will be so crippled as to be meaningless but it'll give something politicians can talk about as "for the people". All regulations are written by industry insiders.

Makes sense, get the kids addicted to gambling and pull them into the platform.

There might be some Aptiva EDO RAM sitting in my parents basement... Ill have to look next time im out there. Im not sure if I ripped it out and stored it before we sent the computer off to recycling eons ago.

Unlike a playground assholes on the internet realize a couple things:

1. Theres a near endless supply of assholes

2. If youre loud enough and an asshole enough you'll find other assholes.

3. Your new found group of assholes can then go off and terrorize other people while attracting more assholes.

This. Theres a lot of rude awakenings in the future for corporate executive types. They are no longer driving the train. Oh well.

Everyone loves a little palace intrigue.

and in this case we're just getting tyranny

You expected different with this administration?

You know writing for brevity usually means you don't need to explain to your readers that you are writing for brevity...

AI and companies reward sociopathic behavior. When he eventually complains to his boss that his work isn't being merged and it's been done for days/weeks/months that will filter up and look bad on the people holding him up.

Will? It already has turned into one.

Yea, we're basically not hiring anyone that isn't a senior developer already. That's going to be a huge problem eventually but not my problem to deal with.

My best advice for folks that want to get into software now is be willing to do it cheap for awhile and then jump once you've developed some skills. If you were getting into this industry for the money you're properly fucked and I hope you didn't load up on debt. If you're passionate about building stuff there's still room but the path forward is a lot murkier.

Yes, but I'm not worried about losing 100K.

"Ranked in the top 2% of scientists globally (Stanford/Elsevier 2025) and among GitHub's top 1000 developers"

This made me laugh. I can only image how insufferable this person is to deal with.

Sarcasm right?

If everyone does it and the majority of users are captured in ways that they wont or cant seek out alternatives then shipping bugs to users, letting them find amd report them and then fixing them is business-optimal.

I know internal folks running AzLinux 3.0 under WSL and it's fine. Not a lot of reasons to do it vs just use Fedora. I'd expect similar for AzLinux 4.0. It's not tuned for day-to-day WSL centric developer use tho.

But what if you could have the movie you want exactly with the story and characters as you envision them. You may not want that still, but I guarantee you there are people that will.

Found the edge lord. You gotta step up your troll game, this is weak. Grok can do better.

I used to think this way but with the rise of fascism pretty much everywhere I think it's important to know what I am consuming and what they support now.

Is it perfect? No. Does it piss some people off? Probably, and I don't care.

Also it's a cute fucking lizard.
