Certainly not rare, but consistent with the readings on the shelves: "Thoughts on Flash" (https://web.archive.org/web/20170615060422/https://www.apple...)

Ditto for PS4 and PS5.

Who needs tests when you have vibes?

Fascinating. What a time to be alive.

Extending on that era’s TV programming (born in the late 70s), even if it wasn’t “your show”, there was only one screen in play. Secondary devices came much later.

Very informative. Thank you!

Day 1 led me to a deep(ish) dive into the CPython implementation of the abs(...) builtin. Good times!

Indeed. 5th Circuit -> SCOTUS will easy mode for right-wing causes (if it isn't already).

Your FreeBSD on AWS work is appreciated, @cperciva.

Did ambition die, or did founders encounter a populace that believes in work/life balance?

I felt dirty reading the blog post as a longtime ZFS (FreeBSD) user.

Our RDS instances seem to be fine (can connect, run queries, ...). The console is borked though.

Daily standups can be performed via a Slack channel and a template.

In what sense is TikTok "Chinese media" when the majority of the creators (consumed in the US) are in the West?

You omitted the GPT and web3 (possibly passé) angles…

Nothing to see here. That stretch of Broadway has been sketchy for decades.

I am Batman.

I run image-processing workloads on lambda and my body is ready.

Every election has had issues. Voter fraud, however, is rare. Voter suppression is common and tactical.

Whenever everyone can come out and play, I highly recommend a visit to Bletchley Park (conveniently located in Bletchley: https://bletchleypark.org.uk/), and, adjacent to it, The National Museum of Computing (https://www.tnmoc.org/).

Please no.
