no no no, you don’t understand! there’s a secret “rich ppl netflix” that you can’t get unless you pay $12,000 for it. the illuminati built it for bill clinton
nice! this is a feature i’ve been wanting to add to my music tool
you wouldn’t want somebody that hates animals to become a veterinarian just because of money-lust. the animals would suffer, the field as a whole, too. maybe they start buying up veterinary offices and squeeze the business for everything they can, resulting in worse outcomes- more animals dying and suffering, workers get shorted on benefits and pay.
people chasing money ruin things. we want an industry full of people that want to actually build things.
weird, i studied latin and the history of language just because i found it interesting. i am always seeking to improve my writing skills tho.
yeah i wish it was a requirement that you’re nerdy enough to build your own computer or at least be able to install an OS before joining SWE industry. the non-nerds are too political and can’t figure out basic shit.
i hate that our profession has been overtaken by that snake oil. my goal is to some day fill my own development company with developers smart enough to see through that bullshit and reject it.
no leetcode interviews, no take home tests, no bullshit. what a dream. now if i could just stop getting scammed by clients who don’t pay…
i was trying to find a link to Apache’s chat server that we used to power cruise ship chat applications w/out internet. i didn’t find it but this list i found has some neat projects listed, so i thought i would share that at least: https://medevel.com/26-os-chat-servers/ (no affiliation)
my best friend in high school (also a nerd) gave me a shirt that says that over 20 years ago! now my son wears it ha. thanks thinkgeek!
i imagine MS just hard coded a random license key into the build image and it expired. the issue doesn’t say exactly tho
i am thinking this issue description is implying that EVERYONE using the windows build image was broken. MS probably had a hard coded license in the build image which expired. idk, could be reading it wrong
don’t give me hope like that
typical Azure. duct tape and bubble gum holding everything together
Larry Ellison just gave a big talk on this tech coming to America soon. fuckin billionaires
a monopoly patent was literally a government invention. an actual monopoly does require the government. what you are talking about is called a “natural monopoly” in the literature. that would be a situation where there’s only one seller for something like say water in a desert town. in that case you can have price gouging and such.
now, the important bit is the LEGAL ability to prevent competition. if there is a natural monopoly on water, and the seller decided to start charging obscene amounts for water, those extreme profits would normally induce other sellers to enter the market. except when they are legally prohibited, we can expect that a natural monopoly will not last if what we call “monopoly rents” are extracted.
so you see, a true monopoly requires legal force, eg the state.
but almost no two libertarians will agree about those things. if you think there is only one “blessed” or accepted viewpoint on those topics, you’ve been duped.
for example on the rights of kids. there will be somebody who will argue they fully own themselves and parents are never allowed to hit children or otherwise harm them. then there will be some idiot who argues that because babies are helpless and the parents made it, that the parents “own” the child until some point and can do what they want with it. other libertarians will have even more differing viewpoints.
and 99.9% of the time it is less than 10
yep, my most heavily-trafficked site is https://bongo.to which Cloudflare doesn’t support for registration. so i have the domain registered with Namecheap but hosted still via Cloudflare. Nowadays I’d check out Porkbun also, I’ve heard good things.
in case you were wondering, you can attach a bluetooth keyboard and trackpad. or you can use it to act as a monitor for your macbook, so you could type on that. theres a virtual keyboard too, but if course it would suck to work on (based on second hand reports, i’ve never used one)
i think “really big screen” for movies or laptop display is about it for useful work features. also, some people like to put windows everywhere and work like that ig.
so like, an ipad?
