Unfortunately he’s burning the governments money too so I wouldn’t be too excited about his constant lawmongering.

I think often cases are won or settled based on who has the most money to keep them going.

Bit weird to be so angry about this. The commenter is not ‘basically just another marketer’ because they have nothing (financial or otherwise) to gain from others using linux. They genuinely believe it is a better product and it is in your interests to use it.

Direct your anger at Microsoft if you feel as though you are being forced to do anything, they the ones choosing to enshitify Windows, and removing it as a viable option.

From wiki:

On November 12, 2020,[20] for his 31st birthday, Varshavski traveled to Miami to attend a beach party that was also attended by a number of other people without masks, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Footage of the event was posted on Instagram and went viral, particularly on Reddit.[21] On November 18, Varshavski apologized for his actions in a YouTube video,[22] saying he “messed up” and he needed “to do better”.[23] His attendance of the party was criticized by medical professionals. Bioethicist Arthur Caplan, director of the division of medical ethics at NYU Langone Health, said Varshavski “fails completely in being an appropriate role model and he should be called out, and he deserves even more criticism than he’s getting so far.”[23]

Overall I enjoyed this one, felt like a return to a classic monster-of-the-week format, with a decent setup and good intrige, although the reason that the monster was created being ‘the computer thinks babies needs monsters’ fell a little flat for me.

The commentary on abortion and refugees was a tad shoehorned also, but not a deal breaker for me.

Really liking Ncuti’s take on the Doctor and his chemistry with Millie Gibson, and definitely excited to see where the overarching story line for the season goes.

Fully anecdotal, but one of my 6th form rugby teammates went to watch a high school american football game, and said they were comparably as good as we were. Only difference is they filled a stadium and we’d get 3 dads on the sideline.

Junior teams for professional clubs do very much pay attention to school leagues and youth club rugby for players to ‘scoop up’.

Seems like a purely cultural difference around going to watch lower level matches to me, rather than the player skill and career trajectory being different.

I will never understand the idea that rebasing inherently causes problems. Rebasing gives a much cleaner history and reduces the number or commits with multiple parents, making it approximate a simple tree rather than a more complex graph.

The simple rule is branches that only you work on can be rebased, shared branches must be merged.

The goal is not to stop the people in the queue being attacked, its to stop someone boarding a plane with the means to hijack it

Binary Large OBject

Basically any binary file, often objected to in open source repos because of the lack of source and ‘openness’. See also the recent xz backdoor.

Not even Millennials see action against your employer as ‘betrayal’. Company loyalty is dead, and this professor is out of touch.
