It’s great how people are gathering and having discussions under heavily censored platforms owned by billionaries, just amazing.

This is the algoritm I use at work.

I remember that experience first time and how I had to kill the process from another shell :)

This was before the internet so couldn’t exactly google it either.

Fun times. But I figured it out by reading the man page.

If you dont know how to exit vim, then yes you are…

Those websites will simply register alternate domains… It’s really not a big deal.

Lol, I was also looking at installing it last weekend.

I guess this thing is on the same connection as my stock choices.

You just criticized the OP for the exact same thing.

I can offer some constructive tips to you as well: dont speak for all of us.

I liked the article. I didn’t interpret it as “everyone must do what I say”. It was simply a viewpoint from a person on the internet. That is what a blog is.

The complexity of tech stacks have increased enormously in the last 10 years, and it’s only sane to see what tradeoffs we are making to be able to scale easily. Perhaps it’s not worth the trouble for 90% of us. If we follow best practice from cloud providers without thinking for ourselves, we will not learn to think for ourselves either.

So let’s do that. Let’s think, wrote blogs, discuss, and allow for discussions. Don’t shut people down.

This is a hobby project, but it’s nice to see work going on. You would need some Linux Torvalds of Browsers to get something that can compete with Firefox or Chrome though…

If you look at games that get overwhelmingly positive on steam, most of them have only ok graphics and they cost like 30 dollars. It’s the feeling of the game that matters. Is it fun?

For devops, it’s amazing. We use many tools that we are not experts in, and it’s incredible to get ready to use code examples how to configure them for various scenarios.

I save many hours every week using open Ai latest models.

I think because we feel that there is no real purpose to being alive, we need entertainment and distractions.

I often wish we had a star trek society where people would work on things that benefitted society in some way, instead of for money. It would have much more meaning because your talents would benefit other people, not corporations.

Someone who likes to draw would just draw and become appriciated for having great art, much like open source works today. Or if you enjoy making beautiful furniture, or robots.

What is destroying us is that we all work for being rewarded by money, not for appriciation from our peers. For me personally, the appriciation i get for working on open source projects is enough to keep me going and being happy with the work.

Some people say that most people would do nothing if they didn’t have to work. I think they would want to do something. Because almost everyone would want to feel they have a purpose besides just existing. That is why we feel empty now at most jobs.

I think it’s silly. You can’t fight dictators with gaming choices. That stuff is real life.

Ok I read the article… Answer is still nope.

Russian game companies are not our enemy. The leadership of the country may be, but so what? You going to try and influence that by choosing non-russian games? That’s ridiculous… :)

Nope.

Hmm. To me 2023 was the breakthrough year for them. Now we are already getting used to their flaws.

Yeah I agree. I will never be filthy rich but I will also never be very stressed out or risk ending up on the street. It’s a fair deal. :)

The US values company profits over all else. It’s different in Europe because we have legal protections.

I knew someone would see the logical flaw here… :)

I leave at 3 pm on office days to beat traffic. Everyone does that. What is this 5 pm thing he talks about? Must be America…
