I've read a lot online about how "Y2K was overblown". As an engineer who worked like crazy in 1999 to correct our systems this drives me crazy.

Today I read about games going offline, watches getting frozen and airline tickets showing the wrong date.

Because of a leap year. Which happens every FOUR years (give or take).

Yeah Y2K was a one time thing. (Well at least until year 10000)

Isn't 2038 going to be fun.

If this was a software product, the answer would be “we don’t have resources to test every door plug and airplane bolt. We just have to send to production and hope to fix the reported issues quickly”

Also, Israel is committing genocide.

Scheduling a 30 minute meeting with a group more than 4 people is an act of pure optimism.

i'm trying to figure out what high-level abstraction git presents. I think it's something like this?

(yes, all of this is "wrong", but I feel like git's UI does a lot of work to try to provide this abstraction in an inconsistent and leaky way)

@codinghorror @b0rk @vitriolix which makes it all the more amazing and impressive that it basically took over the source control industry completely.

@marcoarment I did a migration over thunderbolt today. Weirdly, I had to disconnect from Studio Display before it would use TB.

You think they'll ever make more Star Wars movies? I mean it'd be nervewracking because the three we have are so good, but it could be interesting.

@ZachWeinersmith ditto for making a sequel to The Matrix

Why did we print things on paper? I guess it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Wheezing with laughter at Zuckerberg's inevitable pivot to AI and his attempt to pretend that's not what he's doing. "We have not stopped focusing on the metaverse, we were focused on AI the whole time" is literally what he's trying to go with, somebody come get your boy.

I love Apple's hardware, but what the heck is going on with the Apple TV? I've had to reboot multiple Apple TVs (latest model) multiple times just to get basic video playback going across several apps like Hulu and Netflix and HBO Max. You'll press play and it crashes back out to the main menu. Repeat. Repeat. Until you reboot..

@codinghorror Interesting. We use ours daily and have none of these problems.
