Those are rookie numbers

Yeah, they’re about pakled intelligence now.

Is that the new ifixit one?

No, it’s one of the few use cases of emacs.

Stuff like openWRT routers get a pass.

If it has a local host API I would use it because it never has to connect to the internet.

Anything in my house smarter than the IKEA remote control light switch gets crushed with a hammer.

I don’t entirely mind that initial effort to just show how utterly fruitless playing by their rules are, and that this has nothing to do with fentanyl at all.

I’m mostly joking, but most of what I code lately is integrations and data tools where 90% of the thing is configuration and lining up different tools.

It’s a lot of load data form yaml, build json, throw that into a tool and the build a report kind of glue. I’ll use pydantic and stuff where it makes sense, but I’ve been spending a lot of time lately between lua and python and javascript.

I used to do more system and engineering stuff which actually required a lot of planning, but that’s just not what has paid the bills for me the last few years.

but we still get that tech debt sprint?

Big difference between not “supporting” them and threatening to annex us.

Well if actions speak louder than words, I think you’re right

And halfway interesting means beyond a medium blog written by someone with 3 months experience trying to pad their resume, and not following standards beyond default linting rules at all

Lately my approach to dev is “I don’t care about your language feautures, I’m going to treat it like lua and just stuff objects with data and write bare functions to process them”

Unless I need to engineer something complex, everything is dict[any:any].

We Canadians will remember the lack of votes to:

1. End this nonsense
2. Stop the executive branch from making up crises to violate any agreement they want. Evidence be damned.
3. Accept this declaration of economic war on your closest ally.

If this does not pass the US. can never again be trusted with any agreement or deal, so none should be bothered to make them.

I’m sure you’ll get a sprint to clean up the tech debt and a pizza party. Management promised!

Man I sure hate the trans agenda of checks notes wanting a place to pee in public without being harassed?

Seriously fuck all this, trans rights are human rights, and insanely easy to accommodate while hurting absolutely no one.

Sometimes I think they’re trying to scare up NATO spending, but they’re doing it in an entirely pyrrhic way.

Mostly I think they have a 1970 RISK level understanding of the world and do not understand how alliances work.

They talk about geopolitics like they’re 14 and think everything is zero sum, lacking even the most basic elements is game theory and economics.

That takes me back

I’ve been party to dumping legacy systems and lift & shifts a few times.

Good fucking luck.

Knowing nothign about this, a project like this would take at least 2 years even if you are dropping a ton of use cases and dependencies.

They should sell a charger called “ba” and then a two pack called “banana” and a four pack called “bananana”
