SO FAR AWAY
Everytime I'm on a flight with infotainment, I wonder about the company responsible for writing the software. A small part of me wants to get a job at one of those companies, just to see what the process is like...
Putting aside the "should/shouldn't do" argument, I was also wondering if the code is even viable. I imagine that 'ls' and 'sudo' are probably pretty ubiquitous, but I bet there exist some Linux installs out there with a different shell than 'bash', and some might not have 'grep' too. That would lead to some pretty cryptic bugs for the end user, eh?
What a strange article. The reasoning for why 22 is interesting though very straightforward, and the rest of the article is essentially “I asked for port 22, and they gave it to me”. Little fanfare, little in way of storytelling conflict.
Not an issue in and of itself, but strange with a title of the form “This is the story of…” That sort of titling usually begets intrigue and triumph over adversity, dunnit?
For anyone legitimately wondering, nu metal is still alive and well in one form or another, it just isn't getting nearly as much press or support as it used to. You can also hear its influence in a lot of modern metal, metalcore, and some more experimental rap
I totally respect this being potentially a big ask, but does anyone have a TL;DR of what caused or was the fix for the federation issue(s)? I don't have capacity at this moment to look through Github Issues and PRs, but I'm curious
the people on Lemmy are worth talking to, period
no u
Because the "Reddit API changes" are a big epoch in Lemmy's history (and these graphs show it), I'm really curious to see if/when there will be another mass exodus or another "big Lemmy/federation moment".
I'm putting a small amount of money on "Lemmy gets mentioned in a viral news article" ;)
It reminds me of Last Week Tonight when the last elections were coming up.
You can tell Cody is both wanting to make a comedy show and also scream into a pillow. I think what they're doing is good, but I imagine the research and writing process is agonizing.
I remember a book I read in elementary school (in the Cam Jansen series, IIRC) where the main conflict was a mean older brother put a password on the new family computer (a huge deal in the early 90s), and the younger hires the kid detective to find the password. The password is “hot dog”, ultimately determined because the desktop BG was a picture of ketchup and mustard.
I recall being not super satisfied with that ending.
I kinda feel your pain. A project that I helped launch is written in Typescript technically, but the actual on-the-ground developers were averse to using type safety, so any
is used everywhere. So, it becomes worst of both worlds, and the code is a mess (I don't have authority in the project anymore, and wouldn't touch it even if I could).
I'm also annoyed at some level because some of the devs are pretty junior, and I fear they are going to go forward thinking Typescript or type safety in general is bad, which hurts my type-safety-loving-soul
That's hot
