“the sudden announcement of Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun's resignation by the end of 2024 was interpreted as a response to the company's persistent safety issues.”
I hope Boeing has serious bonus claw-backs in their contracts, because this idiot’s “cost-savings” have actually cost Boeing a fortune, and destroyed their reputation. The entire board should go.
How about wearing a wedding ring on the left hand 3rd finger? Since the 9th century, that’s primarily been a strongly Christian tradition, therefore arguably a symbol of Christianity?
Was your hand generated by AI? Because I’ve just had a look at your comment history, and you have over 50 downvoted in the first page or two of comments.
I hope they don’t cremate him, I’d really like to piss on his grave.
Think how it feels to be Scottish. We voted overwhelmingly to stay in the EU, and still got dragged out by idiot Little Englanders.
We’d have been better off sticking with the Auld Alliance.
Modern programming languages and IDE's are so complex it's enough to put a lot of people off ever learning to program - it seems such a massive learning curve. There's something to be said for learning Basic then assembly on an 8-bit computer, where everything is so much sampler and direct. Writing a value to memory and seeing a blotch of pixels change on the screen gives such a direct understanding of what's going on inside the machine. And if you only have 48k of memory, you can genuinely understand everything the computer is doing.
The machine itself can generally only do very simple things
That really hasn't been true for at least 2 decades. And nowadays assembly code is no more that another abstraction layer, as microcode in the processor becomes increasingly complex. It's as out-of-date an idea as the idea that C code is 'close to the metal'.
Users of novel or unusual operating systems or devices (i.e. innovators and early adopters) are also locked out of the client until Discord sees fit to port it to their platform.
Uhh, you know that Discord has a web interface , right? So this is just disinformation, and calls into question your motivation, if you have to resort to strawman justifications.
Sounds like yet another Google project that will be promoted heavily, before being unceremoniously dropped without any warning, leaving users in the lurch.
The moon phase cycle is 29.5 days. The reported bug cycle is 49 days. Yet somehow, "Not strictly the cycle of the moon but close".
With that sort of logical analysis ability, no wonder this guy struggles with stupid bugs.
I used to enjoy programming as a hobby in my spare time, but in two years I’ve opened the IDE on my personal machine no more than twice.
This is why I have never taken on programming as a profession. I earn more than I would ever make as a developer (even a very senior developer) leveraging my (average) programming skills to produce a personal suite of software tools and scripts that means I can do my chosen profession better, faster and with less effort than any of my colleagues or competitors. I have also developed small apps on a private/ personal basis that I have then sold to my employer for wider use in the company.
And I still enjoy programming as a hobby as much as I ever have. Don't underestimate how much being able to program at even an average level can boost a career in another field.
Although rug-pulls like this are dubious to say the least, neither should FOSS contributors be hauled over the coals simply because, to justify continuing to commit more and more time to a project. they need to generate some kind of revenue. If more FOSS advocates donated reasonable amounts of money to the projects they use, this kind of bollocks would be much less frequent, and the long term stability of projects would increase dramatically. Sadly, way to many people donate nothing. And way too many companies, as well.
I first saw this joke back in the days of 8-bit home microcomputers. Of course then it only needed 256 lines of code, and took up about 8k of your precious, precious RAM.
Of course, it is not always possible to avoid over-committing as sometimes the business calls for it.
Well that sounds like lazy acceptance of a bad situation for your team.
No mention of fighting for better terms for the team. If the business calls for over-committing you team, you or someone else in management have failed. Such a commitment may be indeed be unavoidable in that situation, but your job as a manager is to fight for your team to be additionally compensated for such an over-commitment.
even if it’s a blatant copy paste they can’t do anything.
They can sack you.
If your CV contains absurd claims about having learned all programming languages, I’d be surprised if you even got through to an interview.
And I though Peter Cushing’s appearance in Rogue One was a bit uncanny valley…
12:15, which is great as we break for lunch at 12:30. It prevents the time-wasters blathering on endlessly, as they are focused on lunchtime. A maximum of 15 minutes of wasted time.
