I never go that far in my projects, when are you using Minkowski transformations?

That's a great point. OpenSCAD is lightweight and FOSS so it is a lot easier to share than Fusion360 for example

You can do parametric design in other CAD software, but openscad, being a coding software, lends itself particularly well for that.

In my experience doing parametric design in Fusion360 is a lot more tedious than in OpenSCAD.

Yeah and like anything getting big, here we are, Discord trying to go public and fuck everything over. The cow is fat enough to be milked then butchered until it's nothing but bones and scraps.

It's so long ago that my memory might fail me. Skype didn't need a hosted server and that made it accessible.

Wasn't Skype the best audio/video protocol at the time? Everything else around it was terrible, but I remember that skype was the only voice call software that worked well for me on shitty connection back in the day.

I split my docker containers so that I can selectively backup what I want easily on proxmox

For example, I am currently running an Abiotic Factor server that I don't care to backup. So I just dont add the container to the backups and I am done.

If the company doesn't pay me for a certification they want me to have, I will choose whatever certification/training to meet my requirements. If the cert is something I am interested, cool beans, otherwise the company can pound sand.

Proxmox is a great starting point for self hosting. You don't need advanced features to start, and you can easily create VMs and containers.

I try to do that as much as possible, but comes a point where you can't push back the task in the next sprint.

Whenever I can, my code isn't ready yet, it needs a few tweaks until the code is viable. That way, if I can never touch the code again, it has a chance to not be terrible in the future

It's a rarity because the nano second a prototype works, it never gets touched again because management only heard it works and don't give dev more times to make it proper.

So imagine management deciding to ask devs to go back and clean-up a codebase, pure fantasy.

I work as an embedded developer and when a new board is produced and half tested, every one expects fully functional code off the bat, right away.

Motherfucker, you didn't even qualify your hardware and you expect my code, that hasn't hit the new board, to be 100% functional, based on your mind map? We will find hardware issues that will inevitably be blamed on the code and spend hours "debugging" the code to eventually find out the hardware is shit.

My kids are still young, so it might change, but I hope they stay with with me forever.

I love them so much and I will be sad when they will leave home.

Friendlyjordies house getting fire bombed for going after politician would tell me that Australia is fucked.

Nothing changed during Trump's first presidency disaster and nothing has changed after the pandemic. It won't happen and this is fucking sad.

Best we csn do is piss away money on mega corpos thst won't do jackshit.

The IT paradox :

• "Why am I paying you when everything works?"
• "Why am I paying you when everything has gone to shit?"

You are right that vaccines worked so well because mostly everyone had them, and mostly everyone has to take them for them to work.

Village idiots got a support system and crossed the threshold where the herd immunity has diminished enough for outbreaks in communities.

I wish they would have shown me the top picture 15 years ago, it makes so much sense.

It has been a constant barrage of misinformation spread across the world for decades.

We've seen many reports of misinformation farms from Russia, China and North Korea and this is the result of it.

Crazy that they got 116 millions for that.
