I still cannot believe half of you maroons voted for this. So now doge has a serious .gov DNS entry.
I mean that literally, btw. I cannot believe half of you voted for this, it’s impossible. If it turns out there really was election fraud this time I will be completely unshocked.
If you aren’t a fan of the book, I hear it’s fine. If you are, I hear you should skip it.
My first boss was a “just” guy. Thankfully he was also pro dev, being one himself, but sadly he was completely self-taught. This led to some interesting ideas, such as:
“We should not migrate anything to, or start any new projects in, .net framework 3. We should become the experts in .net framework 2, so people who need .net 2 solutions come to us.”
“Agile means we do less documentation.” (But we were already doing no documentation)
“Why are you guys still making that common functions class library? I just copy a .vb file into every project I work on, that way I can change it to suit the new project.” (This one led to the most amusing compound error I’ve fixed for a fellow dev.)
Good guy, all in all. But frustrating to work for often.
More thinking of the ios app store in this case. But they’re also ripping off the osx dock, IMO. :P
I’ve not booted into windows for a few weeks now. It’s been pretty smooth sailing, one horrifically unoptimised game aside.
It’s not about security. Not anymore, anyway. Maybe when Authenticode was first added to windows. Now they just want to scare users into getting everything through their store, because they’re perennially jealous of the shit Apple can get away with.
What`s the censored one about?
I don’t believe there was any specific API in use here, for virus scanning or not. I suppose maybe the device driver API? I am not a kernel developer so I don’t know if that’s the right term for it.
Crowdstrike’s driver was loaded at boot and caused a null pointer dereference error, inside the kernel. In userspace, when this happens, the kernel is there to catch it so only the application that caused it crashes. In kernelspace, you get a BSOD because there’s really nothing else to do.
This headline belongs on Not The Onion.
If the only tool you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
That’s the only thing I can think to answer your question. There are some problems that are best solved with other tools, like text parsing for example you might want to call out to some code written in a functional language.
The ATO’s myTax system is pretty great, I hope with this you guys finally get something as nice.
This is true, but compared to the prevailing alternative I’ll take it. Unless there’s a viable FOSS alternative for whatever software we’re talking about at the time, of course. :P
I did this ages ago now. Was a non-issue.
Edit: To clarify, I’m not endorsing MS on not fixing this. Just saying I did it and had no issues.
This is so obvious that I am glad someone said it, because it made me realise conservatives are basically implying that it happens constantly.
Don’t forget, a lot of the early free trade, free press rhetoric was because the US stood to benefit the most from it. Of course the country with mass printing technology wants everyone to be able to buy their printed propaganda. Do they want to share the technology? Not so much.
It’s true tho… for some new users. If the new user wants to learn linux fundamentals, there’s no better way than hand installing Gentoo or Arch. Ideally on a second PC and using it as a home server.
Now if they just want an alternative OS for their main PC, yeah, go for something else.
I assume they’re talking about the idea that tolerance is a social contract, and that people who do not abide by it are not protected by it either. I.e. It is not a contradiction of tolerance to not tolerate intolerance.
