Artemis is a boondoggle corporate giveaway. Its main purpose is to funnel money into the pockets of big contractors as quickly and efficiently as possible.
I worked on it for a year and a half, and saw so much mismanagement and self-sabotage, I can’t even say. I’ve made multiple posts about it in the past. NASA spent $10 million at least having my team fail to build something that we could have built for probably $2.5 million. Most of that money vanished into the pockets of a giant, evil corporation that mostly builds weapons. I can tell you the guys (and they were all men) that we worked with from that company were laughing all the way to the bank when they canceled our project. Now they’re launching without that component.
I have lots of feelings.


Capitalism is happy to have cheap code that works “well enough” to sell, and mostly prefers it to expensive code that works “really well.”
The future is full of buggy ass code that runs most services and devices, who’s main priority is vacuuming up data about its users and everyone and everything around them, and then a few high quality products and services only the rich can afford.

I think this is getting downvoted because the headline sounds like it’s casting shade. It’s not, it’s actually an historical reference to a political movement from 100 years ago.


The user’s code is vulnerable to a buffer overflow in certain edge cases. I need to patch the vulnerability and commit the patch to the repo.
I should rewrite the existing memmanage() function to handle these edge cases. (Silently removes all other functionality)
I should modify garbagecollect() to detect these edge cases. I’ll rename it to garbage_collector() for clarity and readability. (Renames the function, calls it no where)
(Confidently) I modified the program as requested, the new version of your application should be more secure and handle memory issues much more efficiently.


But did your winter heating bill go down? Asking for a friend.


Add a GPU and mine some crypto, add a GPU and mine some crypto, add a GPU and mine some crypto, earlie in the mornin’!
If you’re wondering how it is that I sing three part harmony…
Oddly reminiscent of Steven Universe. Is his own mother, who was some kind of (evil?) god, has an orb in his belly button, launches friendship based attacks.


I’m in this photo and I don’t like it.


Companies attacking security researchers always goes so well for them.


A DM once attacked our party with wargs in an arctic tundra in the dead of night.
I discovered an offensive use of Create Water.


I’m actually running an old west horror / conspiracies game I wouldn’t have thought of if you hadn’t shared that magic bullet. I have my players organized and everything. I adapted the healing bullet you described. I wanted to share these magic bullets I created for it (GURPS rules).

He’s got tons of ferrets, you just can’t see them right now. When he reaches the far shore and engages the enemies, the ferrets will all jump out, getting a surprise round.


I have a friend who once brought back an “iPhone” from China for laughs.
Wait… I’m getting my canon’s confused again…
Truth.


I feel like Calvin can probably be placated with Minecraft.
Thank you. You saved me a Google search.
