Also, it points upwards, the satanic version is upside down (like the satanic cross).

The pentagram has far longer been a holy or symbol of protection for people who are into that kind of thing. Not sure if that matters though because it also applies to the swastika.

That sub wasn’t about technicalities but about signs with an easily confused word order. Yours absolutely qualifies.

If you’re afraid of triple letter agencies you probably shouldn’t engage in social media at all.

The privacy concerns are about coercion from the user base. The bar to spin up a private instance to get to the voting data is far too high for 99% of the users.

If it’s effort, virtually nobody does it. Convenience is king since the beginning of the internet.

Different mindset. A user doesn’t want to find bugs but get shit done.

And we absolutely wanted to shoot the tester who gave us this use case.

Why? Because he tested well and broke the software? A user changing their mind during a guided activity absolutely is a valid use case.

Yeah, the people at Pixar have no clue how to use a computer. Lol

Do you really expect their artists to be IT experts? You seem to be stuck in the early 90s mindset when “knowing how to use a computer” covered all disciplines.

But it can also be a matter of (inexperienced) devs just deciding, fuck it, I won’t try to merge it, I’ll just copy my changes elsewhere and throw away the repo.

Pretty sure that’s actually it. Git has a learning curve and, for example, some naive rebase not working out as intended can be scary if you don’t know what you’re doing.

It works well - for a Windows subsystem. It is well-integrated but also separate which can be annoying sometimes.

For example, you might code in Python in VSC against a WSL folder but make a script to eventually run in Windows. You need to install and update Python twice then - a Linux and a Windows version (obvious, but can be annoying).

WSL is also really slow, especially for filesystem heavy stuff. You know how on Linux programs sometimes run faster via Wine/Proton than on Windows itself? Yeah, this is the other way around.

It was earlier, when they released Windows 7 and it was the first (and only) release, management gave development a largely free hand and they could bring down some technical debt.

But apparently that didn’t work out for Microsoft and now we get one dystopian news after another.

Isn’t the POSIX incompatibility a major roadblock when scripting?

It must be a really deeply integrated part of the Windows kernel because it has never been able to show progress properly.

Back in the days of floppy disks it always felt that actual copying started when the progress showed 100%.

Debian, Mint, Arch (by the way).

Had Ubuntu as my main driver for about 2 years but didn’t like Gnome and had more trouble with an Nvidia card than on Mint or Arch.

Fedora is top of my to-try-list but I’m not a distro-hopper, so who knows when I’ll have a use case.

More like:

Computer scientist: We have made a text generator

Everyone: tExT iS iNtElLiGeNcE

OK, that’s excessively “convenient” for booleans. But I don’t get the passionate YAML hate, seems like a simple enough language for config. Didn’t have the pleasure (“pleasure”?) to work with it though, so what’s why else is it shitty?

I am a regular Notepad++ user. Thanks, didn’t know about that copy cat and just reported as they requested.
