The amount of people nitpicking about the brand of pseudocode or arguing the question is tricky reminds me of some coworkers, and not the good kind.

If you belong to the above category, try to learn some new programming language / read about some algorithm descriptions (not implementation) and go out take some sun. The question is super intuitive if you're not stuck to a single paradigm or language.

I didn't bother reading much of your comment, but businesses obviously already need to detect which countries users come from. I'm sure you can come up with at least one reason on your own.

Yup. Just moving between German and French websites can be a pain in the ass. Default filters in shops, prices with or without taxes displayed first for professional things, different menus etc. They can be different in the most subtle ways, which is way worse imo.

Don't get me started on websites who think they know better than you which website you'd like to visit. Stop redirecting me based on my IP or language settings! OK now I'm just venting sorry

Sometimes the info lost is just a typo or a revert. I'd say heavily depends on the workflow of the people involved. Some like long history, some like rebasing, others, something in between. How you review those approaches changes a lot

For every musk or bezos there are a hundred billionaires whom we've never heard of and who are just as greedy. I don't think it necessarily changes much

I thought the secret was to be a son of an imperialist slaver, guess I just need to pull myself up by the bootstraps

Hamas was too voted into power. Do you believe Palestinians deserve their fate then?

A simple but hackish solution is to version your types. New field? Foo becomes Foo2! Now nothing builds and you're sure you'll have to go over every usage of the type.

Add a second commit to revert to Foo, and there you go. Of course you'd need two reviews but the second one is trivial

They have a contract with their employer, though. The problem here is not contracting, it's this stupid at-will employment that allows this to happen

There are absolutely the problem, that's actually the difference between a programmer and an engineer: the liability.

"I was just following orders"

Which one of these haven't been sabotaged with by a US coup? And let's not pretend there are no failed capitalist countries either

All of that can also be tested in a preproduction environment as well, downtime is really a poor excuse for not patching

Surely you meant the opposite? Working multiple jobs is a very USian thing. Now I'm curious, where are you from?

Well, getting promoted is difficult when you watch Netflix or browse lemmy on company time

And then you realise the program doesn't crash when compiling with debug symbols 😢

Is mint slower than Ubuntu? A bit surprised to hear an Ubuntu derivative called slow

We want diversity... Wait no not like that!

It really sounds like it. And then idiots will say apple was right when exploit come out

You just described a website...
