You think the rest of the world doesn’t follow the news when a lunatic is in the run with an actual chance of getting elected?
Turns out we have journalists, in France!

I’m guessing what you describe is like some of my knives (IKEA ones iirc) getting rust on them if they don’t get dried properly and are left to dry with water left on them?

Still sounds like terrible design when no car I’ve ever seen has this sort of problem.

You forgot your maid bonnet. Classic blunder!

I was like “oh, I gotta remember that duck billed one. That’s an ugly one too. Ugliest I ever saw!”

It’s the Multipla. It’s a Fiat, though.

My auntie has done the opposite for fucking years : she’ll come visit her mum and leave with some knicknacks she’s had her eye on from a previous visit. My mum is absolutely fuming about it. She absolutely does not need anything, but just the principle of her sister being such a fucking vulture…

It’s a service problem, though. Not a money problem. This is a perfect example of that very fact.

Funniest to me in this kind of debate is having my N+1 manage us from across the country, having two team members in another town, and somehow, my ass being at home 15km from the office makes any difference at all to the daily life of the team? It doesn’t. My actual manager, the dude giving us our marching orders, doesn’t care. Shit, our N+1 doesn’t care either, since he’s almost always remote himself!

Only people I’ve seen actually care seem to be HR, for whatever reason.

I don’t even get how any company with several sites has anything to stand on. Makes no fucking sense.

But that’s something I don’t actually understand, since real estate would fall under the sunk cost fallacy. Ie, if you’ve invested in real estate, the cost is spent already, right? Whether someone comes in that building is irrelevant. The costs spent to maintain, heat, clean, power the buildings, on the other hand… It’s just not really obvious to me. Seems like fewer people would cost cheaper, no?

Probably the reference manual for HR departments everywhere…

That was a beautiful read, cheers!

We have a table with literally three columns. One is an id, another a filename and a third a path. Guess which one was picked as the primary key?

Never seen something so stupid in 28 years of computing. Including my studies.

Hahaha! We’ve an “architect” who insists he needs to be the owner on the gitlab. My colleague has been telling him to fuck off for the entire week. It reached the point that fool actually complained to our common boss… The guy is so used to working as a start-up and has no fucking clue about proper procedures. It’s terrifying that he could be in charge of anything, really.

Holy shit in so glad it’s not just me. All I have ever seen from Java seems to be NullPointerException. (Which makes sense, but still, it’s pretty funny)

“Tester, c’est douter”

Sure, but I think Venerable Jorge would have 100% approved of copyright laws and violently enforcing them, somehow.

I used to be on Demonoid and some other JAV trackers but they shut down and I’m too lazy to bother with waiting to join another. Never really was into music enough to track (hah!) a private tracker and honestly I think it’s not in the spirit of torrents. But I appreciate the recommendations nonetheless :)

Meanwhile my torrent of Thee Michelle Gun Elephant is stuck at 31.9% because that’s all that’s available.

Story of my life with torrents, really. I just want the old and obscure, the stuff you can’t find anymore. But it always seems to be all about the latest popular shit, sadly.

Doesn’t sound too weird to me. In my experience, devs always focus too much on positive / correct inputs, as they want things to work. Which is why you need testers that will catch all the weird crazy ways people can break things. Testers shouldn’t even see the code of it can’t handle nominal cases.

Thank you kindly for the link. I’ll have to see what this brings to the table, but it’s always nice to have options!
