If you have the stones to try it

What a twist

What if you only have a nail?

Sounds like you need to add some sleep statements somewhere in your deployment scripts if you want to deploy in 10 seconds

Users are the acceptance testers.

One might even say it’s an ExtremelyDrawnOutMethodNamesFactoryImpl

Almost certainly

The great thing about schema-less databases is you can put any old thing in there. The bad thing is at some point you have to get it back out again.

Thanks so much for the explanation. As they say, when a measure becomes a target it stops being a good measure.

Relevant XKCD for good measure.

How can these businesses keep running? Storing and distributing documents isn’t exactly the most technically challenging product to build. I’m not in the field though so I’m absolutely certain I’m missing a lot of the nuances here. Can you shed some light on why you think nobody new comes along to our compete these folks?

Or just !! for the last command. Particularly helpful if you forgot to prefix it with sudo you can run sudo !!

I’ve been using Atuin on my work computer and found it to be pretty good if you want something a bit fancier than Ctrl + R

I’d rather have SteamOS officially support more devices including desktop. Good on Valve for giving people options though.

Great news! The more devices running SteamOS the better

Oh right I see what you mean. If you pretend China is a democracy my point is automatically disproven, that is true.

Don’t forget Taiwan as well. They have HSR although to be fair it’s also a very small country.

I don’t know, man. This sounds like some “the enemy is both strong and weak” BS to me. When they can’t build a HSR in California they are an unplanned economy but when I point out the cost of China’s flavour of government suddenly the US is a dictatorship?

I’ve got no issues acknowledging when China does some good things but come on. I was rightfully making fun of the implication of your meme here and you come back with doublespeak. There’s really no need to pick a side and defend it at all costs, we can acknowledge the positive and negative things.

Now I’m confused, what do you mean? I never said they didn’t have a great high speed rail network. I think they’ve done a great job and I’ve got no problem acknowledging that. I was just poking fun at the implication of the meme.

Very good point and one that people often forget. It’s literally impossible to build high speed rail without first becoming an authoritarian dictatorship.
