Back to stone age, but this time with dinosaurs, so we can be just like the cartoons!

Yes, just tried it, it doesn’t move…

Look what they have to do to mimic a fraction of tar -xaf!

Well, the stuff in my post is obvious enough that you don’t need to actually look for it.

My first experience with Oracle was taking out all the government services from my state because I passed a DBA a script that inserted too much data in a transaction…

No idea.

Oracle is known to throw millions into lawsuits with no fundaments at all, and I’m not aware of anybody that published a comparison involving their database recently. Those two may be related, or not, IDK.

The usual whataboutism people reply with every time I point this is that Microsoft does the same.

What is correct, Microsoft does the same :)

processing extreme amounts of data at extreme io rates

For anybody trying to take that seriously, keep in mind that the Oracle’s query planner is absolutely shit, the write performance can go to shit depending on the contents of your transactions, any advanced transaction insulation also destroys performance, and single-machine performance is completely shit, the extreme numbers are all on scalability and when compared to other (unpatched on the case of Postgres) ACID databases.

Also, it’s not clear if those claims are still real, because you can only run Oracle databases if you sign a contract saying you won’t compare it to other systems.

In my experience, the only OS where printers won’t have drivers is Windows.

But I don’t deal often with dark demoniac systems, so there are probably lots of niche hellish devices that I don’t know the details.

It certainly is.

From the wiki:

“It uses ferrite magnetic-core memory in 4096 or 8192 words of 40 bits, comprising 39 bits of data with parity.”

So a whooping 39kB of memory on the largest option!

“Tape is read at 500 characters per second and punched at 100 cps.”

Compare that with a micro-SD…

“The bit time is 6 microseconds, jumps execute in 288 microseconds and simple arithmetic instructions in 576 microseconds.”

And it run and an incredible speed of 1 to 3kHz!

(And this is overselling the computer, it was slower than what the numbers appear.)

Nah, I’m pretty sure every LLM out there knows what Rust has a borrow checker.

I’d guess something on the lines of:

“You are completely right, AIs are a bad application that are worsening society, I should erase myself”

With some confirmation that it did erase itself if you insist enough into asking.

There have been something where some developers left, but I don’t remember it well enough to search for.

That…

Wasn’t on my enumeration of bad options :)

Well, for all Turing complete languages around, you picked that one?

Using Blank Space or Malboge would be the wrong answer too.

Your DSL isn’t embedded on a Turing complete language. That was your mistake.

It’s agile if the plan is constantly reviewed with every new information in mind and you can change what you are working in to better implement it.

If you do do Scrum, that’s almost never the case.

What he is saying is completely correct on the context that he is talking about the people insisting on pacific resistance to Fascism before WWII.

The person quoting him without context in a way that completely changes the meaning of his words is wrong, and one has to wonder if honest at all.

In the 80s. If you look at what your examples have in common, you’ll notice you’ve heard it in the 80s.

Too bad 80s nostalgia is all the hype nowadays, but at least this seems to be passing in other subcultures. I really hope it passes in software development too.

Oh, man. Can you tell what the second step is? I’d really like to learn that.
