I tried to watch a video on my phone’s YT app, and ouch!

The ad is not only in the middle of a fucking sentence, but it also doesn’t pause the video and hijacks the volume. And it interrupts all the fucking time, there were at least a dozen ads in a 1-hour video.

And also, the “rewind 5 seconds” button is not there anymore. And YT won’t let you use another application while the video is running anymore. And if you move from the YT app for too long, it jumps right to the end of the video.

Yeah, I’m willing to use that shit while my ad-blocker unfucks it. The moment Google is successful in breaking that, I’m out.

I’m yet to experience them. As far I have only experienced that warning.

IMO, it’s not “trust to not completely fuck it up”…

Instead, for any product at all, Valve is the only company I don’t completely trust to completely fuck it up.

Still, I’m not hyped on VR.

That…

Wasn’t on my enumeration of bad options :)

There was clearly some maturity and wisdom missing before he could go there…

Personally, yes. But the default being nano is very sensible.

Just to point, but that red and orange look way too similar.

When $EDITOR is vim, but I expected anything else:

opens file, with small text on the top; text begins changing; text duplicates in size, then triples; text returns to original size; text increases in size to fit several screens…

Then my great reflexes kick on and I notice something wrong :)

I often ^xs on graphic IDEs too.

On most of them, it works if you don’t have any text selected. The Microsoft ones do really weird things.

Well, for all Turing complete languages around, you picked that one?

Using Blank Space or Malboge would be the wrong answer too.

Your DSL isn’t embedded on a Turing complete language. That was your mistake.

Both will be gone in 2 months without printing…

I guess outlawing people stealing horses was deemed too radical.

The sequels aren’t.

Non-coding architects has been a well known organizational red-flag for decades.

Non-coding people always lose track of reality, and it’s a disaster to give them decision power over fine-grained technical choices.

Now, I don’t really know how that maps into non-coding software developers, but I’m not optimist.

I’m reserving my judgment until after 2038. But yes, everything looks much better this century.

We have been at around the peak for a while:

In fact, we are post-peak, because each barrel of current oil needs a lot more oil to produce than a decade or more ago. It just doesn’t show in the data.

The peak that will show in the data when the demand peaks. But yeah it’s possible he just caused the oil’s demand to peak. He has been a very effective eco-terrorist.

I have asked several times to myself how deep one must burrow a CNC mill until it can run all night without bothering anyone…

It’s agile if the plan is constantly reviewed with every new information in mind and you can change what you are working in to better implement it.

If you do do Scrum, that’s almost never the case.
