All you have to do is use powershell. maybe the worst shell ever created. Though some of these AI enabled shells have me second guessing that opinion.

Right? Though I’ve often found those statements to be used to imply you can’t vote for the party because it’s a “treat”.

My intended joke was poking at this and it either didn’t come across or really hit a nerve based on the votes.

Do I detect a nuanced opinion. You do realize you’re posting on the Internet about American politics right?

I mean, Fortran isn’t even dead. It was updated last year. Weird but it’s still a used language.

People that lived through getting kicked off XP are like “w11 interface is fine. I’ve been through worse”

Using my decades of experience in how programming and compilers works and the fact Mozilla has used it to great effect and how it is being used for parts of the Linux kernel… Yeah just a general statement it doesn’t make any sense.

Maybe they aren’t effective at designing software with the paradigms of the language or they don’t like it but the given explanation doesn’t track.

The web being too object oriented for rust? Assuming that made sense, who wrote the dang language? If that’s true I’m even less confident they know what they’re doing then I was before.

That’s cool but I’ll wait for the MMO reboot of Tokyo Bus Tour.

Right?

Ha yeah “Sr dev” was never seen again, the team member stuck around for quite a few more years.

“I know what a lot of you are thinking” Yeah what about Firefox? “It’s impossible to make a new web engine” Um… No … Probably not that hard really with pretty decent standards these days. Performance JavaScript is probably pretty hard and a lot of the fancier protocols.

Seriously, what makes you better than Firefox?

Whatever, another choice isn’t bad I guess.

Once we had a “sr developer” join a project from a consulting group. The project wasn’t going well so me and another dev started helping with some tasks as well.

After a couple days of helping, trying to get his web application to work with data from an API he turns to us and says “oh, json is just a string.”

The other developer from our team stared at him for a few seconds, stood up, walked out of the room and told the project manager something along the lines of “if that guy ever comes back in the building I’ll quit”

So yeah, json is just a string… But if that’s the end of your knowledge you’re in for a bad day.

Should I point out the irony of this complaint being posted on a site with ads every other sentence and doesn’t even show what the windows ads looks like?

It’s a valid complaint and all I just laughed as I scrolled past all the blank “ad here” blocks to read the article.

It was actually 3gb because operating systems have to reserve parts of the memory address space for other things. It’s more difficult for all 32bit operating systems to address above 4gb just most implemented additional complexity much earlier because Linux runs on large servers and stuff. Windows actually had a way to switch over to support it in some versions too. Probably the NT kernels that where also running on servers.

A quick skim of the Wikipedia seems like a good starting point for understanding the old problem.

It is. Until recently it actually still used the domain to serve assets.

Well past time to take up farming.

When the first person opens their new laptop:

“RISC architecture is going to change everything”

Buy a ticket to mars. Problem solved.

I’ve seen a lot of contractors over promising timelines too. “No matter how hard you push and no matter what the priority, you can’t increase the speed of light.”

But yeah exactly.
