Seconded. Having an awesome Fish setup doesn’t help at all when you’re constantly having to shell into other machines unless you somehow keep your dotfiles synced, and that sounds like a total hassle.
I’d rather my muscle memory be optimized for the standard setup.
This would be a lot more readable with some paragraph breaks.
Wanting to and actually doing it are two different things.
The problem is that open source devs also have to be their own project managers, but those two jobs have very different skillsets.
In regular software development, it’s the PM’s job to deal with the drama, filter the idiocy out and collect concise and actionable user stories, and let the developers just write code.
In open source, you tend to deal with a lot of entitlement. All kinds of people, who never gave you a dime, come out out of the woodwork to yell at you over every little change. The bigger and farther reaching a project is, the more this happens, and it wears you down. I can only imagine what it’s like working on a huge project like GNOME.
And the toxicity feeds into itself. Be kurt with one person, and suddenly it gets out that you’re an asshole to users. Then people come in expecting hostility and react defensively to every little comment. And that puts you in the same mindset.
At the end of the day, you can’t satisfy everyone. Sometimes you gotta figure out how to tell someone their feature request is stupid and you’re not gonna work on it, especially not for free. And a lot of people need to learn to try to fix problems themselves before opening an issue. That’s kind of the whole point of open source.

It doesn’t excuse the behavior, but I get where it’s coming from.
At this point, no. But it’s still incredibly annoying and a little spooky when I’m laying in bed and I see my computer screen light up in the next room when it’s not supposed to.
It’ll even wake itself from sleep when it wants to update, but it won’t start it automatically, I think because it hits the lock screen.
I’ll probably try Linux on ir when Windows 10 hits EOL.
Someone should force this guy to read about the principle of least astonishment.
Doesn’t surprise me that a developer from Microsoft doesn’t understand this. To this day, when I select “Update and Shut Down” in Windows, it only actually shuts the computer down about half the time.
Ubisoft has done a fantastic job of convincing me to never buy a Ubisoft game ever again.
Not sure that’s how a company is supposed to work, but they sure seem to think so.
It definitely tastes different from the bottle than from the fountain.
I think out of the fountain it’s gonna be a little watered down for a couple of reasons:
The bottle has also likely been sitting around for a few days to weeks, and more of the carbon dioxide will have converted to carbonic acid, which will affect the taste.
The recipe may actually be a little different for the fountain syrup vs the bottled stuff for these reasons.
If you’ve never gotten a fountain drink without ice, it’s worth trying. It goes warm quicker but won’t get watered down. I used to think people who asked for no ice in their drinks were just picky. However, I recently started ordering my drinks that way because I’d sometimes notice a chemical taste as the ice melted and it’d sour my stomach pretty badly. That never happens when I get my drinks without ice.
I don’t think any of this is unique to Baja Blast though. Pretty much every soda tastes completely different between bottle and fountain, and also with or without ice.
Any highlights from those in the know?
Good suggestion.
It runs okay, but the segment after the jump gate didn’t run very well with everything on screen, even at low settings.
Besides that, the flying itself feels sluggish and unsatisfying, and the demo has you fucking with the radio while you’re trying to drive.
Also, I could swear it had an AI trucker steer into me so it could teach me about crash penalties, but then it made me deal with the radio shit while my truck was yelling at me for leaking air. I rage quit the demo at that point.
Overall, not very impressed. It’s got too much going on for a truck sim.
No mention in the article or on the Steam store page of whether it’s meant to be compatible with the Steam Deck or not.
This game has been on my wishlist since I spotted it on Steam a while back, but I’m not likely to buy it unless I can play it on the Deck. I’ve got too many other games in my backlog already that don’t run on it, but I need more casual games I can play on my Deck while watching TV.
A former coworker would constantly pitch Ansible whenever a discussion about an ops problem came up, in a kind of joking-but-not-joking way. It eventually got rather annoying to keep having to shoot it down.
I spent thirty minutes reading the website trying to figure out what the hell Ansible actually was and what you could do with it, and I still didn’t have a straight answer.
As far as I can tell, it seemed like it was created as a tool to automatically SSH into servers and run commands, but through one of the most egregious examples of scope creep in software engineering history, it was eventually extended with modules that could do everything from provision cloud resources to, idfk, control smart home appliances or whatever. It’s like the poster child of “if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.”
By comparison, the value proposition for Terraform is immediately obvious. It certainly has its own drawbacks, but I could instantly understand exactly what it was and what I could do with it.
I hate dev tools that try to do everything at once, because most often they don’t do a single thing very well at all.
A lot of physical laws are really just the inverse-square law in a new wig.
I wonder at what point in those three hours do they try to indoctrinate your child to think being gay is a moral failing.
It was $5k worth of training, and well worth it, since you still remember the lesson.
Yep.
That’s also not the most money I’ve ever unintentionally cost an employer.
The applications I’ve built weren’t designed for serverless deployment so I wouldn’t know. It seems like you pay a premium for the convenience though.
I ran up like a $5k bill over a couple weeks by having an application log in a hot loop when it got disconnected from another service in the same cluster. When I wrote that code, I expected the warnings to eventually get hooked up to page us to let us know that something was broken.
Turns out, disconnections happen regularly because ingress connections have like a 30 minute timeout by default. So it would time out, emit like 5 GB of logs before Kubernetes noticed the container was unhealthy and restarted it, rinse and repeat.
I know $5k is chump change at enterprise scale, but this was at a small scale startup during the initial development phase, so it was definitely noticed. Fortunately, the only thing that happened to me was some good-natured ribbing.
It executes on a native thread in the background. That way it doesn’t stall the Javascript execution loop, even if you give it a gigabyte of data to hash.
Yeah, even the actual sentiment of the video is more like, “it’s not great but it’s the name that stuck and there’s solidarity behind it.”
The problem, as always, is lumping people together when they didn’t ask to be. Most of the newer, more “politically correct” terms are even more generic and alienating, and, once again, being forced on them from outside.
I wonder why I haven’t seen a standard open-source license for this.
