lobut,

What a psychotic statement.

lobut,

“look in duh mirror, hur dur”

aka, I can’t answer so I’m going to attack the person

lobut,

Your description of it reminds me of LinkedIn.

lobut,

Heroes of the Storm for me. I think it deserves better.

lobut,

Alright, I’ll say something not good about it. The story is really messed up.

It’s fun as heck though. I wanted full games from some levels.

lobut,

Me too. I’m pretty good at reverse engineering front end. I know how to do quite a bit and I write front end apps at home.

However, yeah, I’d definitely prefer the front end devs to do the work properly at my workplace.

lobut,

Me: opens Docker on my Mac

lobut,

The CEO claimed it’s because the USB C port can withstand more than the 3.5mm so it’s more sustainable to use that. I honestly don’t buy that argument because now you’re putting all of that load from 2 ports into 1. Also, if they were truly Fairphone, I should be able to buy a replacement headphone jack if it does break.

I think he eventually admitted it was a mistake, but it turned from a definite purchase to a zero for me.

lobut,

He also fired so many engineers and his site keeps breaking.

Remember that he is also a billionaire that doesn’t pay his bills.

lobut,

Man you guys make nice loaves. I’ve tried making sourdough so many times and it never tastes that great or turns out looking that nice either.

lobut,

I’m glad they mentioned rectangle, I found that app amazing. I have however upgraded to Amethyst for my app tiling though.

I’m a dev, so if I’m not doing .NET development. I found windows quite limiting. The new terminal stuff is nice but it’s native on a mac. I’m not sure about Docker because that really spins the fans on my 16 Intel Pro.

Also, things like Spaces and virtual desktops have been pretty sweet for a long time now. Windows, I can’t recall but it’s been a horribly broken PowerToy for so long. I can’t believe people were to recommending it. I think some people were telling me it’s native now, but like, it’s crazy how it wasn’t done properly years ago.

lobut,

Felt like they were doing that for a while. It’s why I went on Boost. I refused to be pushed onto their mobile app.

lobut,

WarCraft 2? First real addictive game for me.

I mean Tetris is always a classic though.

lobut,

Is Honeydew the real money melon?

lobut,

“I’m here with MY ring for the ‘One Ring Frodo Challenge’ to raise awareness for Frodo. What we’re going to do is journey some distance with a ring, any ring, you can do this at home. Make sure you take pictures of your journey and share!”

lobut,

F to pay respects.

lobut,

Yo that can’t be real … please tell me it’s not real.

Reddit Ramps Up Its Threats To Protesting Mods, As Ad Buyers Leave (www.techdirt.com)

The landed gentry are only in charge until the king comes to town and chops off a few heads. At least that seems to be the case at Reddit, where CEO Steve Huffman pretended his complaints about current moderators — who were protesting his decision to effectively cut off API access to tons of useful…

lobut,

For June 20 and 21, the most recent days for which Similarweb has estimates, the ads site got in the range of 7,500 to 9,000 visits, Carr explained, meaning that ad-buying traffic has continued to drop.

I’m glad Reddit is feeling something from this, however, at the same time. I kinda don’t care. It’s a shame it went the way that it did. But spez can’t take back his terrible attitude and decision making on what happened. Most people were sympathetic and wanting Reddit to be profitable and rooting for Reddit. However, spez just decided to come out swinging from nowhere hitting his allies in the face.

lobut,

What did you do to get those?

lobut,

On a serious note, I love cooking and washing and cleaning. I’m not staring at a screen and the objective is clear.

I’m not contemplating whether this is worth my time or stressed about other things. Although, I don’t cook for many people so I guess my outlook would be different in those cases.

lobut,

I hated working with rockstars. Most of the time they’re just competent developers that got in there early with a high ambition but given too much power with a bad attitude.

I’m stereotyping obviously. I’ve worked with some absolutely devs and far better than me, but were never described as Rockstars.

I remember this one and he would always ask to be on the hard projects. He’d waste a shit load of time. Whine about the project. Do only what he wants to do. Gets the juniors to do the parts he hates (writing tests). Writes no docs or does no handover and then f&s off to the next project.

I remember trying to get one to help me with a caching issue because they implemented the cache. I was told not to bother them because he’s working on “feature” work and can’t spend time on bugs.

I’m so glad that in general, places have matured as a whole.

lobut,
  1. Government subsidies
lobut,

Oh wow, just when you think Reddit can’t get any worse. They run an old press playbook scam.

lobut,

There was a good podcast about the first amendment by NPR. They talked about how it was never intended to mean what we think it does. Mostly about having to charge for the press. Even at the time, people were protesting the war and judges were putting them in jail despite the first amendment.

(I think it’s this one: radiolab.org/podcast/what-holmes)

The thing is that most people assume that the truth will always come through. I think we’ve seen over the years that that’s not the case. The first amendment is and should be an eternal debate about what’s true and what’s acceptable.

lobut,

Real talk, what music is playing in your head when you see that boss?
