That’s really shitty given the expectation set when using a VPN

I was wondering the same, I’ve not had any issues personally

Being comfortable with algebra is kinda essential, however you probably won’t make much use of calculus unless you go into certain parts of the industry such as game development.

Practice makes perfect though, you may suck at maths today, but there’s nothing stopping you from getting better at it if you work at it

That thumbnail lol

Politics is not just the relationship between two people, it’s the relationship between a person and everyone/everything else in the world.

Reducto ad absurdum: would you suggest a world where every country is at war with everyone else would foster a better environment for global FOSS collaboration than one where the world was at complete peace?

I honestly thought the statement you quoted was entirely uncontroversial. “Healthy” and “global” being the key words, I’m not saying it’s a requirement for FOSS to exist in general or anything.

It’s a fact of life that politics permeates everything, nothing is in isolation of the political climate it exists within.

The state of the world today is a function of the politics that got us here, a big change in world politics can have dramatic and far reaching effects.

A healthy global FOSS culture requires collaborative politics to be the flavour of the day—which is unfortunately not the case in a lot of countries currently.

Used a physical board in my last job before COVID

Can’t really do stand up when none of you are in the office to move the cards

Half a terabyte. 256gb was what I went for for the past few years, but I’ve found that getting a bit tight on long plane journeys, so 512 from now on.

No. 5 was a fun mental image

the demise of Perl

You imply this is a bad thing

Which one’s in the Linux kernel?

Cheers for the response, I appreciate it!

I’m curious about the plugins as obviously I’m not gonna be familiar with the notepad++ plugin ecosystem now—what’s special about the ones you listed?

Assuming edit EOL is just changing the line termination characters, all editors have that don’t they? Or does this not do what I think?

Intrigued about VSCode being slow for text manipulation too—I remember this being a big reason I dropped notepad++ for sublime and IMO VSCode and sublime more or less have parity on that front, particularly with vim bindings

I just don’t get the love for notepad++

I started using it as my main back in 2006ish, I then switched to sublime text about 2011, then about 5-6 years ago to VSCode. All the time using vim for any in-terminal quick edits.

Notepad++ is easily my least favourite editor of the lot, by several miles, it just seems so rigid and clunky without even going into how it’s windows only. Every editor I’ve used since has been a huge improvement over the one prior IMO

If this actually rings true, there’s something pretty wrong in your team.

Stand up should be a quick and uncontroversial meeting talking about what you’ve done, what you’ll do and anything you need help with, plus maybe a couple of minutes of small talk before you start.

APL

The comfortable one is unfortunately an ultimate feature that we don’t get in our plan

I still don’t know why this architecture went for a Double XOR as the NOP, I guess they were just flexing that the reference chip design could do both in a single cycle

Plex is probably the easiest and most convenient, I think jellyfin is viable too, but I don’t use it.

If you’ve got the money, Roon or Audirvana are the gold standard of self hosted music

If you want something similar, but free, look into things like volumio or subsonic based solutions.

Lagunitas is pretty banging tho
