Personally I’d rather buy the slaves. And set them free of course. Yes, of course.

Our code base is filled with “//constructor”, “//destructor”, “//assignment”, or the ever enlightening “Foo GetFoo(); // GetFoo”.
This is not what they mean by self-documenting code.
I miss Windows phone, still the most intuitive phone UI I’ve ever seen.
There’s an old but IMO still very relevant white paper by Microsoft titled “So Long, And No Thanks for the Externalities: The Rational Rejection of Security Advice by Users”. It argues that security measures often cost more in employee time (and hence wages) than the potential benefit. It’s an interesting read and I think about it whenever our chief of security cooked up with another asinine security measure.
Don’t worry, DRM-ed content isn’t recorded, so big companies’ IP is protected.
I tried, but it always comes up with pictures of airplanes for some reason.
That’s another benefit: no more meetings.
I’ve been a proponent of this for ages. It makes no sense to cross some imaginary line and suddenly time shifts. Time should change constantly as you move east or west, up or down. Everyone has their own personal time, which is constantly updated.
Bonus: no more daylight savings switch.
Exactly! Even the indicator light of my speakers bothers me during long nightly sessions. I want to see the screen, nothing else.
That’s a misconception. Farmers lobbied heavily against DST. Their work does not abide by the clock; they milk when cows need milking, and they harvest when there’s enough light, no matter what some clock says.
In Europe, DST as we know it now was first introduced by Germany during WW1 to preserve coal, then abandoned after the war, and widely adopted again in the 70s. In the US it was established federally in the 60s.
This is all glossing over a lot of regional differences and older history. But yeah, US farmers were very much against the idea.
C++ would be called C for short.
I thought this might be an interesting read until I saw the blurb with 4 hashtags and 4 emoticons in just 4 sentences.
“This button turns on the light in the hallway. Sometimes it brings the whole house down on you, but we haven’t found a way to reliably reproduce this. If that happens just crawl from under the rubble, rebuild the house, and try again. This time the light should turn on.“
“Oh, and send us the log messages.”
I did, once. It didn’t work.
I read your comment twice, looking for any tiny mistake to fix. How thoughtless of you not to include any.
Aquaduct?
One of the very very very few good features of macOS: cmd-click the title bar of a document window to pop up a window with the document location.
It does not work on Microsoft’s products on macOS though.
(b) will just lead to fewer up and down votes, i.e. less engagement. That in turn could lead to slowly bleeding out.
