I feel burnt out on professional development, but at least for me tech debt is not the issue. Everything is imperfect after a while, because requirements change all the time and overall it’s not me accruing the debt. That’s why I don’t care.

Really? I just used a passkey for the very first time with Google and Bitwarden and it worked quite nicely. What about passkeys is worse for you?

True, but social media amplifies the dumb shit and creates new incentives and pressures to join the idiot herd. And while TikTok is definitely not the only problem, it is a problem.

That’s only true if you’re a large corporation doing it.

What is your point? That all Israelis fully support the wholesale slaughter the IDF is committing? It seems so weird and pointless to continue to argue about this.

There were protests even before October, because a large portion of Israelis hates that government.

They are against his government in general and started before his campaign of terror and I have seen no poll that would suggest sudden approval. So we can safely assume the protesters include that in their disapproval of him and his government of fascist cunts.

Absolutely. They are extremist assholes.

Looking at the protests against him in Israel I think many if not most Israelis don’t want this campaign of violence. For many years I’ve felt sorry for all the civilians in that area, because they are trying to live their lives and extremist assholes on all sides keep killing them.

Looks like their Pro plan is 9 Euro a month, which comes to 108 a year. It’s on sale now for 5 Euro. Still 60 a year and definitely more than the 30 OP mentioned.

You get to pay billionaires to watch millionaires play a kid’s game.

I’ve been doing home networking for many years now and the public Domain + Cloudflare DNS + Let’s Encrypt is the easiest it’s ever been.

I found about 66 liters as the volume of the average person. Assuming a regular 1.5 liter blender, that would mean roughly 44 blending sessions. And that’s not taking into account the problems you’ll have with large bones or bones in general.

There is really no reason to use self-signed anymore. I use Let’s Encrypt even for 10.0.0.0/8 addresses.

Our phones back then were actual potatoes and we wore them next to the turnip on our belt, as was the fashion back then.

Jesus…

I am so old that I worked with SGML. Compared to that, XML is a lovely language. And sometimes I still miss writing XSLT to quickly transform some XML documents. These days you can do similar things with JSON, of course. But it’s not as easy and standardized as the XML tooling.

How much do you need to drink to get ALD at 36?

I remember the time when YAML meant Yet Another Markup Language.

To paraphrase: There are two kinds of markup languages. Those that people complain about and those that nobody uses.

There is no silver bullet that will work perfectly for all use cases and we also don’t want to use 100 different tools. So people use things that aren’t perfect. But they’re good enough. I don’t think YAML is perfect and I still use it, because people know it and there are tons of tools already available.
