I find it really weird that something as simple as the basic functionality of nextcloud seemingly can’t be implemented in a stable and lightweight manner.
Nextcloud always seems one update away from self destruction and it prepares for that by hoarding all the resources it can get. It never feels fast or responsive. I just want a way to share files between my machines.
There are other solutions, I know, but they’re all terrible in their own way.
No.
Interoperability is only required, if you have a significant market share. Apple does not have this in the EU. iMessage specifically doesn’t fall under this regulation, since hardly anyone uses it.
And since Apple plans to publish an SDK for their intelligence anyway, you can’t really regulate them for being too closed.
So either that’s a purely political retaliation, or their “super privacy friendly” services aren’t as privacy friendly as they claim.
Using the Rabbit R1 instead of generic ML was too obvious.
SSH, OpenSSL, LibreSSL, pf …
There’s not a single web server without some code from them. Every single phone, every Linux machine, and probably even Windows (citation needed) ships with some of these tools.
And you didn’t hear a thing, because the OpenBSD guys just sport a smug smile and don’t care about our plebian fame.
I don’t think it’s validation in the sense we normies felt. For regular, sane men it’s more of a fitting in and being desirable kind of validation, women do the same in that age.
For him and other powerful people (but also some regular men) it’s a power thing. Many powerful people are narcissists, and they live constantly under the dissonance of illusion of grandeur and inferiority complex. Essentially forcing their will onto others is a way to mitigate the latter.
Especially in terms of “legally not rape” charges, even the average man has to face terrifyingly few consequences. So many women report assaults, unwanted aggressive advances and “not exactly consensual kinds of intercourse” without the men ever facing anything serious, not even stigma. Banging blackout drunk girls is a sport for some people.
Truth is, it works often enough that they’ll keep trying.
Whether it’s fear, greed, or actual attraction doesn’t matter to them, in their world they scored a win.
The AI will take care of it.
No humans, no hunger.
The OpenBSD folks are a weird bunch. Literally the entire Internet is built on top of their tools and libraries, and they just ignore the fame and keep dwelling in their basements.
None of the things you mentioned were in my description. You made that up completely. I talked about meetings, no scheduling information.
She’s not entitled to asking multiple times day if you’re done yet.
Did I even imply that? No. You made that up.
I work above senior, have done management and tech lead.
Hearing only what you want, not what the other person said makes you almost perfect management material.
Seriously, look at my comments and your replies. You answered to a completely different reality.
Nah, I think you’re mixing things up here.
“Toxic” is just a label you’re putting on everything you don’t like and you’re also putting a ton of implications behind it.
If Stacy wants a feature, and she’s the official representative, I need to clarify what that feature means. A manager can’t shield me from having to research the technical implications, that’s my job.
Also, you can ignore calls all you want, if there is a genuine need to communicate, you need to have that call at some point. That’s actually your first point in the list above.
I think you never worked in a role above code grunt. As a senior developer, my job is to do all what I described above. I need to do all the technical legwork a manager can’t. I need to write everything down. I need to get feedback from stakeholders. That’s nothing a manager can do and that’s nothing a junior can do.
I code something like half an hour a day.
I feel like these memes of hating everything other than lone coding is because you keep working for toxic companies.
No, it’s because we are working with humans and their deeply flawed organizations. As much as people hate corporations and love startups, both are always a mess. Every organization I’ve seen from the inside is barely functioning. Cruft, interpersonal conflicts, incompetence, or simply very bad market situations.
Software engineering kind of has to get involved with almost all of that. If you need to get approval from department A and Stacy just keeps changing what she wants, you’ll have to carry that chaos into the development and it will usually percolate through half the engineering department, because hardly any interface is actually a stable attack surface. That means meetings, calls, meetings, reviews, meetings, and fucking Stephen again wants to pitch this weird framework he’s so in love with, meetings, budget calls, because there’s no way, simply changing the field length can take that much work, meetings, …
If you wouldn’t be such a reader and instead memorized things like God intended, you’d know, that this sentiment existed for at least 2000 years:
The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.
The part is what drives me mad. Podcasts and audiobooks are not that hard to do properly. You could very easily separate them into distinct apps or at least a special tab that acts like a proper player. Instead audiobooks are basically albums.
There’s a shuffle button.
On an audiobook.
Spotify actually doesn’t make that much profit, if any.
But the record labels are major shareholders and definitely influence the pricing structure. Spotify is essentially a marketing frontend for the record industry.
2.4 is the tipping point. Mark my words.
Any day now, it’s gonna be the year of the Linux handheld.
Again, that’s not what obfuscation means.
Also, what exactly is the difference between cat and journalctl? You can’t read a text file without a program either.
Of course, raw text files are more common, but what you’re drawing up here is a mixture of old man yells at cloud and tin foil hat territory.
The alternative to nuclear isn’t coal…
And if you seriously think regulations are the problem, you’re denser than the lead shielding you want to get rid of.
So literally every program on your machine is obfuscated. Linux kernel? Obfuscated. Wayland? Obfuscated. And even VIM: obfuscated.
You’re creating problems where there are none.
I had lengthy discussions about that because two companies conventions collided.
We talked literally hours about the benefits of build numbers, branch specific identifiers and so on.
