2024 lol. Maybe senior dev is an overstatement, he was just more senior than me. He also left a database where the main table had one varchar, freetext column that users wrote multiple fields into because it was a ‘simpler user experience’ . Was a pain to extract all those fields with regex…

Lmao. I once had a senior dev put database passwords into documentation, and then was about to email those out to interview candidates with the passwords ‘blacked’ out. I caught it quick enough before it could be sent thankfully.

They probably eventually plan to bring back forced labour. They ‘deport’ people, and when that’s too arduous, they’ll round them up in camps and make them work their ‘sentence’.

I don’t think they actually stupid enough to deport their low wage vulnerable workforce when they can just further exploit them.

It’s white phosphorus if I’m not wrong. Used for ‘spotting targets’ aka committing war crimes.

It really puts your suspension of disbelief to the test, and all the characters are terrible. I actually thought the netflix show was better than the book because the characters were alot more relatable.

I love using Wednesdays to clear leave (I know, not the best day in terms of utility for holidays and stuff) as you essentially create a new Friday. Work is so much more bearable.

Have you heard of our lord and saviour rclone?

I haven’t gone back to rsync in a long time.

Nah you gotta alias ls -a to la for more efficiency.

I use dust all the time at work, it’s fantastic.

I never watched sixth sense but I’ve already had it spoiled :(

They make really good coasters, will recommend.

I feel like it has weird millennial humour vibes to it. I hate it.

Yea that didn’t happen either when people were warned about false information online…

How is this basic?

Personally, I used to be pressured to finish books I’m halfway through but I’ve since learnt that it’s so much better to quit books you just don’t like. Good books (subjective to you) are ones where it doesn’t feel like work to read. That being said I torrent most of mine, I can see how it’s different if you bought em.

As for textbooks, I’ve found no satisfactory way to read them except on a pc.

I second the ereader suggestion. Since buying one I’ve been reading at the same insane rate I used to when I was a bored kid. It’s a lower barrier to reading when there isn’t a massive pile of books infront of you.

They have first-past-the-post voting. So no, unfortunately.
