Switched to Linux Mint at home, quit my Windows developer job, and having a great time. I’ll never go back.

If we would have taken the same line on say biology or mathematics we and the Russian people both would have been worse off.

I swear, spelling mistakes are such an indicator for a codebase and the overall quality of the software team, and maybe the whole company. No attention paid to detail leaks out into other areas.

Oh my god they made it an SPA. Oh my GOD it actually works.

Bravo McMaster.

Et tu, frater?

The jabronigrammers before me seem to have made a fine mess without the aid of an AI tool as it is…

Go to Mint, Ubuntu is owned by Canonical and they’re doing ad shit too

Just switched from win 10 to Linux mint today. Feels good, games running faster than before even. The only thing that doesn’t work is the invasive anti cheat shit for multiplayer games. But I get merked every time in multiplayer so screw it

I made a PHP-based one a while ago before Duolingo offered Swahili. It probably needs a little upgrading, ha. A cool project and you can do it for most things. Oh plus it’s raw PHP so snappy as heck you youngins. https://github.com/ryanchausse/githeri

I think what may buoy them is the fact that you must append “Reddit” to searches, however, ChatGPT, DuckDuckGo, and Kagi are giving them a run for their money

I really hope this goes through, because the pile of dogshit they sold my municipal government can’t fairly be called code.

It’s astonishing. I will never ever deal with that company if I have the opportunity in the future because of how utterly incompetent they were creating a “microservices architecture” for us which is in effect a series of AWS Lambdas running random Python that do not coordinate, suffer from race conditions, and in many places do not do the thing in the first place.

It’s the second worst code I’ve ever seen. The first was home grown at another public sector job.

The cost for this shit that could have been replaced by a simple Flask app? Or even a well structured, in-lined Python script? $1.5 million. Ongoing costs in the hundreds of thousands per year.

This should be a $20-50/month EC2 instance.

Absolute garbage.

No, I am not underestimating the complexity requirements nor the communication overhead/competing stakeholder interests and all other manner of externalities.

Deloitte belongs in the dust heap.
