Well everybody likes to think they’re original.

(I did check the comments before I posted this and am vaguely disappointed that I am.)

No it doesn’t. “Time zones around the world are expressed using positive or negative offsets from UTC, as in the list of time zones by UTC offset.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinated_Universal_Time

Time now in UTC is 10:33, no matter where on the planet you are.

Well you can. Just switch your clock to UTC and you’re done. You won’t even have DST to deal with.

Help! Help! Here come the Borg!

let’s see who gets that reference…

OK so next time you’ve done your work for the day, try going home early. Do let us know how it goes.

You aren’t paid by the hour as long as it suits the company. As soon as it suits you, you’re damn well going to sit there until 5pm staring at the ceiling if you have to, THEN you can go home.

Maybe they could be called AIgorithms instead of Algorithms.

That’s not a real operator. You’ve put a space in “i–” and removed the space in “-- >”. The statement is “while i-- is greater than zero”. Inventing an unnecessary “goes to” operator just confuses beginners and adds something else to think about while debugging.

And yes I have seen beginners try to use <-- and --<. Just stop it.

If they have value to the company then how about sharing the costs of commuting? A 50-50 split seems reasonable to me. The company gets the value of those conversations, and the plebs get some help with all that fuel they now have to buy, at ridiculous prices due to high oil prices.

Maybe nobody actually knows the answer, except probably Reddit devs and the managers that made them push those changes out, neither of which will be at liberty to say.

We can all speculate - they’re doing something for the sake of being seen to be doing something instead of actually blocking the content; they don’t want to block the content selectively because that means KYC and lots of people get upset about that sort of thing, etc etc.

(Integrated) Copilot already does it. Me: “Question”. Copilot: “Answer, and here’s half a dozen ads for that thing”.

Merge gives an accurate view of the history but tends to be “cluttered” with multiple lines and merge commits. Rebase cleans that up and gives you a simple A->B->C view.

Personally I prefer merge because when I’m tracking down a bug and narrow it down to a specific commit, I get to see what change was made in what context. With rebase commits that change is in there, but it’s out of context and cluttered up with zillions of other changes from the inherent merges and squashes that are included in that commit, making it harder to see what was changed and why. The same cluttered history is still in there but it’s included in the commits instead of existing separately outside the commits.

I honestly can’t see the point of a rebased A->B->C history because (a) it’s inaccurate and (b) it makes debugging harder. Maybe I’m missing some major benefit? I’m willing to learn.

Oh hello mister fancy pants with your abacus. We carved notches in rocks and we were happy with that.

Standardising on EST is fine; it’s just UTC plus a constant. If they flipped between EST and EDT, now that’d be insane.

Actually I quite like it…

You’d often get the error when there was paper in the printer though. Turns out the cause is the slightly different size between US letter page size and A4 page size. Technically the printer’s correct to complain (for the same reason it’d be correct to complain about an A4 sized print while full of A5), but virtually nobody gives a shit about that difference and so the “PC Load Letter” message just translated to “You have to push that stupid button before I’ll do anything because pedantry.”

So, what you’re saying is that white people shouldn’t use AI?

“regrex” They should definitely be known as that!

Scanners, picture editors and colour printers have been a thing for quite a while now, what’s stopping anyone fixing it for themselves?
