Down with sprints! Down with weekly retros! Down with scrum masters! Down with burn down charts! Just give me a feature to work on and a tool to track tickets. Everything else can fuck off.

The only sites I can think of that don’t look like they use css are motherfuckingwebsite.com and bjarne stroustrup’s website.

Any site that uses JS for more than trivial things is going to be a disaster without styling of some kind.

This makes absolutely no sense. Front ends that include JavaScript still use css.

We never called if statements AI until the last year or so. It’s all marketing buzz words. It has to be more than just “it makes a decision” to be AI, or else rivers would be AI because they “make a decision” on which path to take to the ocean based on which dirt is in the way.

There’s a difference between “this is AI that could be better!” and “this could one day turn into AI.”

Everyone is calling their algorithms AI because it’s a buzzword that trends well.

None of it is even AI, Predicting desired text output isn’t intelligence

I’ve been bouncing around mobile browsers for a while now trying to find one I’m ok with.

I started with Chrome, because it worked reliably and had a decent UI. Then as time went on and Google stopped not being evil, I switched to Brave. Chromium based, but thankfully not Google. The endless crypto shilling started to grate on me, and I started looking into the company, and decided I wanted out.

I gave Firefox a try because I love it on the PC. It didn’t work. I love a lot about it, but there are a few excruciating things on Firefox mobile that I couldn’t handle. Swiping to close tabs, jump to a new Google image, etc was frustratingly insensitive. The browser would freak out and crash the tab about 30% of the time I went landscape full screen on a video. I had to go back to Brave for a bit.

Now I’m trying out Vivaldi. Chromium based again, but no crypto shilling, and lots of customizability. I haven’t heard anything about their CEO being a bigot, or selling data to other companies, but it could be happening. Being able to sync between PC and mobile is nice, and one of the reasons I went with brave earlier and tried Firefox.

Always

We all know that whenever someone says “crypto” they mean cryptocurrency and nfts. Pretending we’re talking about cryptographic security is not helping anyone.

Doesn’t sound like a senior dev to me. Sounds like someone who thinks they are.

Are you this obnoxious to people you meet offline?

Anyone who thinks chatbots are going to make life better for worker shlubs hasn’t been paying attention for the last 200 years

i is for index. j is simply the next letter and we’re too lazy to think up something meaningful

The same reason that a lot of crosswalks have fake buttons. So you feel like you have control.

Truely is. I wish it had a second edition to smooth out the rougher parts. Unfortunately all we got was that crappy Cthulhu clone.

It was a very popular game when it came out, but it is and will forever be in licensing hell and will never be reprinted.

I’d honestly probably be better off ripping the files from Tabletop Simulator and making them myself at this point.

Copies of the Battlestar Galactica board game expansions. I have Pegasus from when it was in print, but the rest are ludicrously expensive ($500+ usd EACH)
