Congrats dude!
it's called absolute pitch or perfect pitch!
mfs be pushin over the first domino and then be like "it's not MY fault the 6th domino fell over"
I have a friend who works there, he's got some interesting stories
as a result stuff like observability & monitoring, as in your post, didn't get done because the person writing the check would cut or argue that stuff out of the estimate before approving it because "it doesn't directly impact functionality"
happens in manufacturing, utility, and medical industries too, in my exp. basically any non-software industry buckets the in house dev team as a cost center. at one place we literally billed other departments for our time spent on their systems, estimates were always negotiations, etc.
serverless for your main APIs never made sense to me from the jump. maybe the alternatives for autoscaling just weren't that good a decade ago
I see what you mean, not the same network in a practical sense even if it is in a protocol sense.
My prediction is per-community or per-app relays will become more common and individual appviews/apis will have to listen to more than one to get the full network, if they want it
Ye the above info is out of date, blacksky has been running its own relay for a while. I remember seeing the celebratory posts a few months ago. bsky.app/profile/rude...
A lot of video-game publishers spend hundreds of millions of dollars chasing after "realistic graphics" and "massive open-worlds" when what players really want is just a shitload of weird little guys
yes to both imo
no
A partial screenshot of a pull request discussion. The first person says "needs fixed to create column", the 2nd person replies to say "updated", then the first person replies to say "thumbies", indicating the fix looks good.
More than once I've sent a .txt file attachment, then try to open it from the sent email, and get a "this file does not exist or is corrupted" type of error for an hour or three.
Swap back to old outlook, open the attachment with no issue.
Blue sky cannot decide things like geoblocking for all of ATproto, so I don't understand how you can say the original statement is true.
omw I just need to set up this bicep language server
I actually had way too much fun using Neovim for stuff at work this week.
So many little tweaks & improvements to make. I'm getting sucked in
Reading through the section on serializability/locking and I am reminded of the time at my first job I had to rewrite a multithreaded search service on top of Lucene. Apparently I implemented 2-phase locking without knowing what it was! I just independently arrived at that design. Damn hes good
A part of my fridge broke while under warranty. Mechanic turns up and replaces the full back panel.
Asked him if debugging and fixing the fault would be an option. His response:
"That would take longer because that is engineering work. They don't pay us enough to do it."
BREAKING: Silksong will be out on September 4. Two weeks from today. Really.
Often, games that take 7+ years to make are plagued by mismanagement and painful burnout. But for Silksong? Team Cherry was having a blast. They still are.

I didn't know windows terminal did multiple panes, this changes everything
Considering just doing that instead of running tmux in my WSL Ubuntu setup. The prefix input is really bugging me
guys

I explained this thread to my non-technical textile-nerd partner and she's very proud of everyone involved
loom, weave, quilt
One of the things I've been doing on parental leave is configuring Neovim. It's fun!
Running it in WSL on my laptop, through the new windows terminal.
Just need to find a decent file browser plugin and make a script that'll setup a fresh WSL distro and then I'll call it good for now
lmao
adding getting set up on tangled.sh to my todo list
wonder what happens to azdo at this point, whether they accelerate the sunsetting or finally try to roll the two products together
4.6.9.4.3. At the time the Pilot Manual was provided to the MBI, the majority of its sections were incomplete. Many of the essential functions were “TBD” (to be determined) in the manual and there was a watermark within the pages of the manual that were consistent with that of a draft.
4.29.6.2. According to a former OceanGate Director of Engineering, the initial scrubber system in the TITAN, designed and built by Mr. Rush, was a "homemade" system that consistently failed to maintain adequate oxygen levels. This system was not in use on the final TITAN hull. The date of its replacement is unknown. The Director of Engineering provided the following testimony to the MBI: “The scrubber was a homemade Stockton thing. I tried to get rid of it multiple times. Always was told no. It was literally made from a Tupperware container that came from Walmart or Amazon or somebody like that. It had liked a screen in the bottom with an air space underneath. You would pour the scrubber into this thing which was a granular chemical material, soap and lime is what it is, right. You'd pour that in there, and then there was a lid, a Tupperware lid that went on and in that Tupperware lid there was a computer fan. You'd attach the computer fan to a battery. That would pull air out of the environment, push it into the scrubber material and then, you know, through the grid at the bottom and out some vent somewhere. So, this thing never really kept up. If you put four people in the sub, it really couldn't keep up with the occupants' breathing rate. So -- and it looked like it was a total piece of junk. I mean it looked like a Tupperware container from Walmart with computer fan on the top.”
4.10.12.2. In testimony regarding the ANDREA DORIA expedition, the OceanGate Director of Operations, who served as the assistant pilot to Mr. Rush, described a critical moment during a dive when the CYCLOPS I became stuck under the bow of the ANDREA DORIA wreckage. The assistant pilot stated that Mr. Rush experienced a "meltdown" and refused to let him assist in resolving the situation. When a mission specialist suggested that Mr. Rush hand over the controller to the assistant pilot, the assistant pilot reported that the controller was thrown at him. Upon obtaining the controller, the assistant pilot was able to free the CYCLOPS I from the wreckage and safely navigate it back to support vessel WARREN JR.
The full OceanGate report has some incredible, deep details. Submarine pilot manual was an incomplete draft; CO2 scrubber was obviously homemade by Rush and didn't work; Rush panicking when the sub gets stuck on an earlier mission, then throwing the sub controller at his assistant pilot
