Which one of them is the one that referred to workers as niggers in their codebase?

Google is allowing the app developers to choose (for now?). With Apple, developers never had the option to allow other stores or sideloading.

I live around 60 degrees North :)

Eh I can barely breathe at 30. 40 is certain death. Except in a sauna, where 100 is no problem and we throw water on the rocks to make it feel hotter.

I know, it’s weird. I’ve got pictures of me lying around in a pile of snow in a t-shirt, trying to cool down. At -15.

I’m lucky enough that both of the shareholders of my company are software engineers; one has transitioned to sales and project management, the other is still an engineer, he’s also the CTO.

Was discussing office chairs with our team lead/office supplies person (it’s a really small company, some people have multiple roles) and when I mentioned that my chair gets really creaky when leaning back but otherwise it works so it really just needs some lubrication, she asked why I would even lean so far back in my chair and the CTO told her “There’s two sitting positions for programming. The writing position and the thinking position”

TL;DR: Takes an engineer to know how engineering works. Turns out that you have to spend a lot of time just thinking

Celsius isn’t all that different.

-30 is really really cold, 30 is really really hot.

0 is just about perfect.

I diagram everything out in my brain and it evolves continuously while I’m writing code

Sometimes I feel it’s a miracle I get anything done at all but then usually the end result is better than what I’d originally envisioned so it kinda balances out.

But think about arguing online! It’s apparently a hobby and to be competitive, you need to be able to spew bullshit at amazing rates. Personally I’ve maxed out at 140 wpm, but usually stay in the 100 wpm range.

Programming? Idk, I spend more time thinking than typing personally. Good code requires you to consider all the corner cases and such.

They haven’t, but some still sell beer by pints. I can go to a store right now (well not right now, it’s past 10 PM) and buy a pint sized beer and a 0.5l beer from the same company.

Facebook 15 years ago wasn’t all that bad tbh. It was nice being able to write to just about anyone you met in real life.

It’d already been getting worse for a while, but to me, the 2016 US election was when things got super obvious. Same with reddit. Can’t believe it’s been 8 years already.

This shit right here is why people buy Apple. You sell your soul to the devil and get convenience in return.

Don’t get me wrong - both my work laptop and my gaming PC run Linux. But my phone is still an iPhone and if I ever have need for a personal laptop again, it’s gonna be a Macbook Air again.

Yeah, and those are for women _/s

Us nerds might not run the world, but we run the Internet which all the non-nerds depend on. Checkmate, atheists everyone

I hope it succeeds just enough to take the right wing nutters off YouTube and give YouTube an incentive to improve its service. But that it stays unsuccessful enough that it keeps burning a hole in Elon’s pocket

There’s a saying in my language that roughly translates to “the morning is wiser than the evening” in English. I believe in English it’s common to say “sleep on it” for tough decisions.

I often wake up and come up with a solution to my toughest problems from the previous day. My REM sleep brain is already keeping me gainfully employed.

No idea why anyone would want to fuck with this. It’s awesome.

I saw the tagline and thought it meant that REM sleep is the next big thing people invest in because sleep is good for your health so they’re selling solutions to boost your sleep quality

Boy was I wrong

At the… Ugh idk. They all have super thin paint nowadays. Especially the more expensive brands.

However, one obstacle remains: the paint is six times thicker than the usual coating on the car body surface. The substance is also more expensive, which would add to the total cost of a new vehicle.

That, in turn, makes it difficult for the coating material to be utilized for mass-produced passenger automobiles.

With 6 times thicker paint there’s a chance it also wouldn’t rust like a proper Nissan and we can’t have that, now can we

The replacement you’re talking about is called [CAMM](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAMM_(memory_module\)) and personally I’m excited about it. Not only does it support faster speeds than SO-DIMM, it takes up less physical space. And I believe you can’t even put LPDDR on a SODIMM, so CAMM should also use less power?

Linux is a bit heavy for embedded stuff.

Intel’s ME for an example, uses Minix.
