Team members, looking at the one, fixing stuff from backlog.

Оказывается˙ижица в дореформенной внецерковной орфографии была нужна для того, чтобы уметь писать слово «ѵпостась» (и больше буквально ни для чего).

Вот такая у ижицы была ипостась.

I’m a bit sick of seeing “US warned about ISIS attack” everywhere next to the news about the massacre in Moscow.

Let me remind you, deal so-called “journalists,” US warned about the “possibility of a terrorist attack for the next 48 hours,” three weeks ago.

There was no ISIS atm, and one cannot tell, “look, I warned you” when it happened on another occasion under different circumstances.

Just a reminder to everyone speculating on G/XMPP trick.

When G adopted XMPP, they had “Don’t be evil” as a motto.

When G started to screw XMPP up, it was NSA asset already.

That is the root cause.

Two product managers started to discuss how many resources would be needed to accomplish some task.

In two hours they concluded, that it’d take 4+ days with two teams involved.

By this time I had already pushed the solution, green, and ready to deploy.

Guess who they blame for wasting the time now?

People are swimming already. The spring finally came.

If there is a nuclear war all around and Musk offers you a seat on the ship to Mars to escape, how would you reject it?

Did you know that some people rated Michelangelo’s David very meticulously?

I can imagine that guy, who went all the road down to Firenzi, stared at David and thought, “Nah, it didn’t worth it, Michelangelo could have tried better, two stars tops, fuckyeah.”

В галстуке и шортах прет-а-порте,
элегантный что твой гондон
плавающий в реке —

с похмелья я пью

ТОМ ЯМ ЛАТТЕ́
тайский бульон
на кокосовом молоке

I can relate, my dear scholar friend. I can relate, this is my favorite thing at work, at parties, at home, literally everywhere.
