Crossing my fingers for the new Snapdragons, especially Linux support.

The M series MacBooks are just in another league vs x86 laptops.

And then add 11

Not only that, stackoverflow does it using windows! (or used to, at least)

Things are easier if you can steal stuff. And operate on a small scale.

Get your communism here! Only $9.99 a month, or just $99.99 for a year!

Or bills to pay. Or mouths to feed.

I would like live in this world. We are trying to hire, and it’s basically as hard as ever. Senior developers are super hard to get, or even to talk to. Even if you pay above average rates.

There’s plenty of “LinkedIn senior” developers, tho. But after 3 years of C they can’t explain a static variable or can’t define a promise claiming to be js experts.

For one thing, generative networks are incapable of reciting facts reliably

Neither are humans, for what it’s worth…

No, that’s old…

The university you apply for has nothing to do with what you’ll study if admissions are politically motivated.

Spherical cow in a vacuum argument…

Who are we to gatekeep where people find fulfillment?

I broke DNS plenty of times in my homelab independent from NAT. In the last few months:

• didn’t turn off DNS server in a wifi router set up as bridged access point
• dnsmasq failing to start because I removed an interface
• dnsmasq failing to start because the kernel/udev didn’t rename an interface on time
• dnsmasq failing to start because hostapd error didn’t set proper interface settings
• forgot to remove static DNS entries in /etc/hosts used for testing
• forgot to remove DNS entries from /etc/resolve.conf after visiting a friend and working on his setup

Yes, most of them is my dumb ass making mistakes, but in the end it’s something that constantly breaks and it helps knowing the IP addresses of my servers and routers.

Aditionally, obscurity is a security helper. The problem is relying only on obscurity. But if I have proper firewall rules in place and strong usernames and passwords I still prefer if you don’t even know the IP addresses of my servers on top of that (in case I break some of the other security layers).

But people are encouraged to do art as recreation. There are plenty of groups and courses to paint, write or dance in your free time.

Con: you are now even more dependent on DNS, increasing the blast radius even more if when it breaks.
