it’s spicy rocks all the way down.

What’s the point, the incoming commander is just going to sell those secrets anyway.

The US is when you’ve dominated the map militarily, neuter the other civs instead of sacking them, and then spend the rest of the game uncontested getting the cultural victory for the lulz.

I’m convinced the answer is “Israel absolutely has nukes and will use them if we stop providing them conventional arms”

But the real answer is probably as mundane as “They are the core of US power projection and intelligence gathering in the middle east, and we really don’t want to lose that level of influence in the region”.

Exactly. This asshole wants people to stop yelling at them for “just wanting a fiscal conservative” in office. (The guy in the pic, not OP)

Try contracting in your spare time to get some variety.

Try contracting full time If you want to fast forward to that next life.

It took me a year but I broke my team of this habit. The trick was to remind them that the parking lot shouldn’t be scheduled. The whole point is that you continue conversations organically so that it’s more like the beginning of a working session instead of the end of a meeting.

Whelp, I’m dead. GG hippo.

It was very much a product of its time. It was alright.

It is, and it’s a valid complaint. Go and Rust have handled it differently than Python or JavaScript, and all of them have their faults and bonuses.

It’s a load bearing S.

Implement doesn’t mean “manifest from the aether with zero work”. It means do every step until it’s done. This is like step 5 of a lot.

There are so many more, and better!, options than testing in prod, but they take time, money, and talent and ain’t no company got time for that (for a business segment that “doesn’t generate revenue”)

The “Big Boys” use tests to gauge when code is production ready, they don’t rely on a typing system and call it a day. I’ve seen monoliths made out of bash serve their purpose for years without a glitch, thanks to tests.

Seen this meme tons of times and I never noticed the menu was lorem ipsum

I used to work at a place that required daily progress reports on tasks (this was before agile took off so ‘daily standup’ wasn’t a thing.). So I wrote a script to schedule my git commits throughout the week (so that I had at least one a day), and every afternoon it would pull my git history, generate a summary, and email it to my manager.

He knew it was automated and hated me for it but I had the most consistent and detailed reports. On the upside, it really trained me to make good commit messages. On the downside It really instilled me with a strong “burn the building down” kind of vibe that persists to this day.

I love that idea that you’d just go to your local Costco, say “One gigaton of rice please” and they give you a voucher to go to the front of the store where high value items are handed out after purchase.

Dude, you only have 100 million.
