a […] software

That word doesn’t work like that. It’s not “a software” any more than it’s “a happy”. It’s just “software” without the indefinite article.

With a hammer.

can’t think of the term, reporter but not news, like life stories, public (pubic?) interest stuff.

I’ve seen that in the Lifestyles section or Society Pages.

They’re all gonna be Surry over there.

Remember: if you leave your bank for this reason, make it known to them and to your friend circle. Encourage them to move to wherever you end up, and tell the bank why. Let’s make a pointless stink about it as we get our friends to safety.

When the enterprise OS company I worked for in 2k1 was considering forking a Linux distro to offer as a freemium product, they evaluated enterprise Linux and Debian.

Debian lost then as its package format had weaker validation and consistency guarantees. It’d’ve been harder to support.

The packaging in both hasn’t changed much, except RH forgot how to use /etc/alternatives properly and now has some ungodly rinkydink thing supplementing it like a colo bag on the side, but the validation difference is still there.

Maybe that was why. Both are riddled with fridge art - oh hi Systemd, network manager, et al - but both are generally similar other than packaging and pipeline.

Only because it’s the global standard. This isn’t our flag to wave, we’re just in the sane majority here.

So with apple locking hard way before android, now what are you proudly signall-uh, running, with neither of them as options?

What’s the hardware? Pixel?

Tell us what you come up with? If apple and android are out, it’s gonna be sailfish or graphene on a thinning hw profile, right?

“an overregulated economy, high energy costs, high labour costs, high taxes and a declining level of education and qualifications.”

Yeah. Because self-regulation and no taxes certainly worked for, for example, America’s skills and education level.

It’s like a bleep on YouTube over some naughty word a guy says before he mows bad guys down with his machine gun. YouTube wants to protect its already-confirmed-adult viewers from hearing the spicy words as it could detract from the purity of the bloodshed.

I tend to write my cover letters at 0137 on way too much caffeine. I get the callbacks, so something in that must be working.

I talked general stuff with the Google guy (pingpong balls in a bus et al) but no coding challenges.

I guess I have truly left the realm of hard coding (at C) as it’s all “solve this excellent infrastructure requirement and then rip out your brain and grab the crayons because it’s in yaml and fucking ansible” now.

high maintenance costs of VLANs

Said no one ever, until now.

The tricky part of being in society is that we want systems that work for more than just ourselves: It’s not a purely transactional relationship.

Great news! It doesn’t affect you either way, so we know your opinion on the matter is completely unbiased. That’s excellent.

Not really anything to do with capitalism. If

You think for-profit healthcare, including elder care, pharma care, and long-term care, aren’t a huge problem with capitalism written all over it, with every layer maximizing profits and minimizing services, then I urge you to re-assess it.

require the terms of America’s final offer to be public before rejecting them.

Corona has its place, man. I’ve had some excellent beachy days with corona on-hand. In the right environment that (or just a Modelo) is excellent.

I would never mix those 3 together…

I’m the idiot drinking from 4 cups in the zoom call. I’ve seriously had tea, fruit punch kool-aid, and a hazy IPA (p49 trash panda) on the desk at the same time.

I don’t mix them until they hit the stomach, but you know they’re gonna co-mingle when they get there, like seniors and freshmen and engineers drinking at the same college bar.
