@theresnotime I would be so tempted to buy both that and the Jaws set and replace Jaws https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/jaws-21350

(I'm totally stealing this idea for programmatically generating embed banner images though)

@theresnotime I think I love this more than venn diagrams. The only unsatisfying part is that B isn't an integer multiple of the basic unit. @theresnotime this is definitely some strange form of pornography that I can feel but not understand Casual reminder that working with technology (be that programming, sysadmin-ing or any of the myriad ways we can Touch Computers™) is pretty damn difficult and if you're struggling, you are not "stupid". We do a difficult job, cut yourself some slack 💜

@theresnotime also reminder that it's actually not your fault that the giant pile of garbage that is your companys legacy code is incomprehensible to you. You are rightfully annoyed at *why the hell did they build it like this, it's so hard to use* @theresnotime tell that our C-level. @theresnotime it's a practice that demands constant refactoring and checking small, seemingly pointless details to make sure nothing is breaking. It makes you question your sanity @theresnotime@fox.nexus you'll never guess what my test database password is :3 "This wouldn't have happened on Linux" I say smugly, as I copy and paste a command from a 2008 forum post, three hours into trying to get my fucking WiFi working on Arch.

@theresnotime This wouldn't have happened with Linux using only open source software, at least with major distros. Because there's plenty of testing for distro and kernel releases, and open source software is readily available to be tested with it. CrowdStrike is not open source. I don't think Arch is a good fit for a production server though. Or for an average user for that matter. @theresnotime I hate hate hate the trend of `curl foo | bash` installation. Not sure how anyone ever thought that was a good idea. @theresnotime Reminds me of looong ago (Redhat 5.2 long ago, on floppies) where it took me 2 weeks to get the commands in place to connect to the internet via ISDN-2... It did work after that! (This RHL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Hat_Linux, not the new RHEL Enterprise edition.)
(Is WIFI working now?)

@theresnotime The fun fact about "serverless" computing is that if you go to the Wikipedia page for it, it says right in the first paragraph that the term is a misnomer.

@theresnotime WAIT THAT’S A HUG EMOJI??? …I thought it was a film camera and people posting it were just making a reference that I didn’t get… @theresnotime Good timing I see this post now, because I recently decided I could use a more permanent reminder xD |
