^ this guy corporates
Also, new manager would be part owner in a UX design firm of “experts” that conveniently, via their expert advice, convince management that a major redesign is needed and their firm is the only one that can do it (since everyone knows you can’t get expert advice internally)
80% of the way through the project, the manager gets promoted and moves on, leaving a new manager with no vested interest in their predecessors project to try and clean up the steaming dumpster fire that is now 300x over budget
I hope this never happens to me but based on the Peter Principle I won’t know when it happens.
Oh shit maybe it’s already happened…
I was thinking about this the other day. Because Lemmy instances keep defederating from each other, I don’t really experience Lemmy. I experience a fragment of Lemmy as determined by the admins of the instance I’m connected to.
Even if I run my own instance, I guess there’s nothing stopping instances from defederating from me (or just refusing to federate to begin with because my instance is too small to bother with).
Is there even a way to experience all of Lemmy, including spam and things some people don’t agree with?
Why? All it’s going to do is output some words that have a statistical correlation to your input words
The first thing I noticed. I was confused, thinking maybe they had an old XP machine lying around to plug in after the main one failed, but then I read further and it was just a stunt
Hybrids: the worst of both worlds.
If you want to keep relying on gasoline then just buy an ICE car
It’s like rebrands.
Most rebrands occur because the average marketing person is pretty average and “rebrand” looks good on your CV.
A couple of million later, half way through, customers hate the new brand and the marketing people who started it have already left for greener pastures
Redesigning a perfectly good design that everyone is used to allows you to put “designed Netflix user interface” on your CV, and since management has to spend a ton of money on it, suddenly your team is worth something
MSSQL in Microsoft* cases
FTFY although arguably Microsoft and Stupid and synonyms
If you’re American and you’ve been eating the food-like product labelled as “Cheese” in your supermarkets then Yes
To be fair it’s probably running on Windows.
All the servers force-restarted due to windows updates, but the update introduced an issue and now the Bing API service won’t start
Keeping shit running on Windows is always going to be a gamble
There’s a rule banning “self-preferencing.” That’s when platforms push their often inferior, in-house products and hide superior products made by their rivals
Wow, I can see Microsoft fighting this one tooth and nail. It’s basically their whole business model
It just wasn’t well written. Pretty pictures can only take a mediocre story so far
It doesn’t need to know the real answer to produce a confident sounding answer
He’s right you know.
Of course the best way to avoid parenting is to not have kids to begin with.
Failing that, the infinite video device certainly keeps them quiet for long periods
To be fair they are on a third world 110v electrical system which means they need twice the cable size to carry the same current as the UK
A million psychedelic colours man!
Every company enshittifies eventually, it’s a fact of life.
It might take a while but it will happen. Eventually Gabe will step down or die, new leadership will come in and the enshittification will commence.
Or they sell to a competitor who will do big cuts to remove now redundant positions and you guessed it - the enshittification will commence.
As someone in Java land, you might be more impressed about its memory footprint rather than its performance.
Your Java hello world that takes 4GB of JVM heap space or it will fail with OutOfMemory would likely be only a few mb in Rust (or even less)
The irony is, unlike the old days - actually AMD (ATI) is recommend for Linux now because the drivers are better.
This is in stark contrast to the fglrx days where that driver was an absolute abortion and NVIDIA was really the only usable one.
Not sure when you started your Linux journey but I avoided AMD for years based on that.
Now the tables have turned but I didn’t realize until after I purchased my NUC which has NVIDIA RTX graphics. So I guess I’m stuck on NVIDIA for the foreseeable future
