Because as far as I know, they only finished the immediate project that I was working on and didn’t continue doing any of the next things on the roadmap that were sorely needed. A fintech company that somehow assigned zero importance to their payments system.

I did this recently. They “replaced” me with two engineers after I had been begging for meaningful help for months.

We have both MySQL and PostgreSQL in our production environment. Postgres is way nicer as a user of the DB. I created a document months ago outlining a dozen different things that Postgres does that MySQL either doesn’t do or does worse. I can’t speak to managing the DB as I don’t have experience with that.

Progressing languages aren’t about computers. They’re about humans.

I have been running Linux full time on my gaming PC for a number of months now. I have found only a few instances where a game hasn’t worked. I know that certain games won’t work because of their invasive or Windows specific DRM, but for me personally I don’t want to play those games anyway. Some examples of games I can play without issue: Horizon: Forbidden West, Brotato, Plate Up, GTFO, Dome Keeper, Noita, Enlisted, Power Wash Simulator, Risk of Rain 2 …

I highly recommend this game! I played through it with a friend and really enjoyed it. I think I recommend it with more than one player

When driving don’t be nice. Be predictable.

• I tried a different USB with a fresh download and got the same error.
• I’ll try a different distro :+1:
• I’m not logged in when I get the error in the photo. That’s what ends up coming up as the live USB boots. It won’t even load into live mode. The only time I was able to get that working at all was with safe graphics mode but it failed to even start the install

I once asked ChatGPT to generate some random numerical passwords as I was curious about its capabilities to generate random data. It told me that it couldn’t. I asked why it couldn’t (I knew why it was resisting but I wanted to see its response) and it promptly gave me a bunch of random numerical passwords.

Recently: Brotato and RAILGRADE

Myth: software engineers replicate value similar to a factory worker making the same item over and over

Truth: software engineers are closer to artists than factory workers IMO. We find and create new value, not replicate existing value

The MAX series didn’t go on its first flight with a customer until 2017. These are practically brand new planes.

The end of Horizon: Zero Dawn

It’s the Stay-Puft marshmallow man!

It got you to click on the article didn’t it?

I’ve had a lot more people accidentally open the door with the manual override than the normal door release because it’s a lot more obvious than the normal door release. There are a ton of reasons to criticize Tesla, this is not one of them IMO. This article reads like a lot of other anti-EV “news” articles.
