Big Bosses later ask middle managers: “Why is turnover so high? Are you not fostering a fun environment?” The 40 % raise for job hopping is a real mystery.

I am using CentOS 9 in WSL. I don’t particularly care what distribution I use because I mostly using a bash shell as a software development environment. I prefer apt to flat packs and use ubuntu 20 on an embedded system that I write code for at work. I keep wanting to get more experience with KDE and gnome, but I haven’t been good about using my free time to mess with OS. As long as I have vim and a prompt that uses vi input, I am pretty content. (Does this make me sound old? The kids at work have trouble following what I am doing when we pair program.)
Don’t forget Bigfoot, the rake, and skin walkers.
Soon it will be a honeypot to filter AI generated applications. I can exclude the resumes of applicants who claim to meet my bogus desired qualification.
I am reminded of Dan Quayle’s “I took Latin in high school.” Offered as proof that he could relate to the Latino community.
Vscode is my favorite. Now there is a sentence I never expected to type.
I just like usleep better than nanosleep.
There is a reason the Geneva Convention (and the Hague protocols before it) prohibit assassination. That reason is that the Glorious Leader and the Wicked Despot have more in common with each other than they do with us peons. Don’t anyone get too excited during our “war” (population reduction, economic stimulus package, domestic troubles distraction). Invest in defense contractors, the elite will keep them fed.
Remember the average dude in China, Iran, Russia, etc is no more interested in dying to aggrandize his rich owners than you are.
Cell carriers in the US releasing 3G+ technologies branded as 4Gs should have gotten the FTC on a crackdown, but regulatory capture and it is all just marketing fluff. The sales flacks selling it can’t even answer questions like “what kinds of bandwidth can I expect to see? Do I get a minimum QoS?”
I am going to buy a subscription for a little while just so I can ask it to code Roko’s Basilisk for me.
Thanks for posting this. I have been trying to remember the name of the Itanium occasionally for a while now, but have heretofore been too lazy to google it.
I am friends with a guy that wrote a bug that caused a major PageNet outage. He’s almost famous his bug was that bad.
My 5G phone’s internet sucks compared to the Spectrum I have at the house. Spectrum sucks compared to the Frontier fiber alternative, but I am currently in the Spectrum part of the cycle of having to alternate between them to avoid paying 2x as much. I think Spectrum is starting to realize that they suck because there full rate for my current plan is only about $5 more than Frontier’s promo rate. I imagine they are hoping that I dislike switching enough that I’ll eat the extra cost to avoid switching. If Frontier would just let me have the promo rate all of the time, they would get more money from me, but I guess too many people are too lazy to switch for them to do that.
I was at a Texas Rangers game in the late 90s or early 00s and two kids were playing in the seats in front of me. The older kid played boogers wiggling all ten of his fingers at his opponent as a trump card. I still think about that. That little innovator is an adult now.
Common law and some jurisdictions require burglary to occur at night which I thought was interesting. In many cases, the intended crime must be a felony to be within the definition of burglary.
An example modern burglary statute (Texas) can be found here:
For Texas, the perp must intend a felony, theft, or assault (a lesser included offensive of battery, so no saying I intended battery not assault).
One of my cats has a much bigger murder section than the other. Her brain is probably about 30% murder and 30% food. Oddly, she is substantially thinner than the other one who is not very food or murder oriented. The porky one is mostly nap - probably 60%.
