Side note, I’m impressed Vimm’s lair is still going strong. I remember using it to get SNES ROMs for ZSNES early 2000s.

Wait until AI start to summarize meetings into email

I left a company when management decided to discontinue a product right after we finally made its code more maintainable.

Had a look at the product that would replace it, and it was a bigger mess from what we started with.

If a team member can fuck up the history you probably should look into your merge policies.

It’s probably just some basic script triggering on stuff like “died”, “all lost” and “I have nothing”.

I’m also glad I did it as a hobby before I started viewing software development as a job. No code from me if there’s no money on the table.

You can’t rescue the princess, but you can borrow her.

You don’t need to tell each other to shut the fuck up in all caps and call each other idiots to get the point across. It’s possible to instruct your peers in a much more professional manner.

This is way beyond a first hint of disapproval.

I like the circle one. It looks like the sun, and as we all know, the sun is made of plasma.

It’s found at sudo snap install mustard-gas nowadays

Fusion and Dread are also real good stuff if you want more. Although they’re both more story focused and action oriented than Super, they’re still great in their own ways.

That’s more of a weakness of yaml. There’s so many ways to specify the exact same thing. Not exactly what you need for configuration files maintained by multiple people. It easily becomes an big incoherent mess.

In JSON the default way is the only way. Nice and coherent.

It was really cool configuring the compiz cube for a weekend. It was tailored to perfection! Then I figured how useless it actually was.

Not necessarily a bad practice if the singleton is immutable, and it’s provided via dependency injection for example.

I would’ve done it if it was me who created the installation. Did it for the reinstall.

Maybe. I did some attempts to recover it, like reinstalling all broken packages. But everything I did seemed to break it even more. Any “simple” fix at my skill level would probably take weeks for me to find. So I gave up, backed up all essentials, and then wiped everything. Back up and running much quicker.

I’m pretty sure it was caused by some nvidia driver. It just cut the upgrade process halfway through and in turn damaged nearly everything. Not exactly sure what happened. Either way, my system got so broken I figured it’s easiest to just wipe everything and start from scratch.

I fucked up my Linux installation yesterday by doing apt upgrade.
