    • Error when loading Ubuntu live USB

    Jump
    • I tried a different USB with a fresh download and got the same error.
    • I'll try a different distro :+1:
    • I'm not logged in when I get the error in the photo. That's what ends up coming up as the live USB boots. It won't even load into live mode. The only time I was able to get that working at all was with safe graphics mode but it failed to even start the install

    • If someone were to call you a "full stack" developer, would that feel like a complement or an insult?

    Jump

  • It depends on the context, who is saying it and why. If my manager is trying to say that after I've made it clear that I'm not interested in frontend development then it's insulting. Mostly because my manager isn't listening to me.

  • I once asked ChatGPT to generate some random numerical passwords as I was curious about its capabilities to generate random data. It told me that it couldn't. I asked why it couldn't (I knew why it was resisting but I wanted to see its response) and it promptly gave me a bunch of random numerical passwords.

    • What’s your best museum experience?

    Jump

  • I really enjoyed the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California.

    • What is your irrational fear?

    Jump

  • Bees. I'm not allergic or anything, I just formed an irrational fear of them probably after I was stung on the foot when I was a kid.

    • The MacBook Air gets an M3 upgrade

    Jump

  • I have a MacBook for work with only 16GB of RAM and I'm constantly running into problems of not having enough and my computer running slowly because of it. Credit where credit is due though, they did an amazing job of making it so when I'm having to use 16GB of swap space, my computer doesn't come to a screeching halt. That doesn't change the fact that I don't have enough to run the applications I need to on a day to day basis.

    • What are some common misconceptions about programming that you'd like to debunk?

    Jump

  • Myth: software engineers replicate value similar to a factory worker making the same item over and over

    Truth: software engineers are closer to artists than factory workers IMO. We find and create new value, not replicate existing value

    • Alaska Airlines CEO: We found “many” loose bolts on our Max 9 planes following near-disaster — “My demand on Boeing is what are they going to do to improve their quality programs in-house.”
