I got a disk of suse Linux from a library book. I put it on my laptop and it worked-ish.
I didn’t know what partitions were so I messed up my laptop pretty bad. But I learned more in that little bit than my undergrad degree.

What’s interesting is that multiple trackers are now saying it’s above 4 percent. Last time something was posted, people questioned the data and where they got their data (which they should). Now there’s multiple sites showing a real increase.
My muscle memory just finally got used to ip addr lol.
I was about to say, if ip was read only…
Some people think it’s a status symbol, but most people don’t care. But yeah it’s above 50 percent now and climbing (in the US).
I have both from time to time. I wish there was a viable 3rd party than picking our favorite multi-billion dollar company, but as a developer, I need both.
Yeah that’s a big one.
Betterment/Weathfront does a lot of this already, but without “AI”. Its just algorithms. It sounds the same…but its really not.
Anything that can run android studio basically. And Debian can.
Indies are so much better.
Very true. It’s not so much the hosting, it’s monetary value.
If we fund a peertube instance we could do that.
Or give them the password. They aren’t going to check if your still alive.
She is in the remake.
A guy at a yard sale about 2 years ago at a beach town. Ive used it for retro gaming like crazy. I have a HDMI to AV adapter that ive had for years and it works without any fuss. Its a great setup.
The TV has better speakers than any other TV in the house.
Aaaaand they are laid off. Wow.
Most of the COBOL material never made it into the internet. Like the actual instruction manuals for the languages. Also a vast majority that do have it on the internet have it under paywall. I notice that anything that is under paywall, the LLMs suddenly dont do as well. I think its because they only train them on the “open” internet.
Yeah the only reason someone should learn COBOL is job security and potentially making a living moving things over. No reason to start a project in the lang. You can make flat files into ODBCs nowadays.
I suppose the ability to be left alone because everyone is afraid the COBOL person leaves and the company goes under is a good reason :)

COBOL is actually not that bad. It can work with SQL, it can have unit testing/integration testing. It can even go on the web (LOL).
But in all seriousness, the bad part about COBOL is lack of context. Most code that is in COBOL has not been touched in decades. And no one is willing to modify because of serous consequences (AKA job ruining errors) that can occur.
I worked with it in insurance and transportation. In both cases, the COBOL was actually pretty solid…but we didnt know WHY we were doing the operations.
Loved that video back when I was contracting. I paid a lawyer to draft up a standard contract and that was the best thing I ever did. Great value for the $$s. Saved my butt a couple of times.
