I’m at the point where I think I can engineer anything. But I also know that it takes effort and I ain’t gonna do that unless there’s a paycheck.

I’m not sure. For me it showed some dog picture from my album.

This happened to me once (but with some other picture in my album instead of monkey).

Now I know it wasn’t a weird dream I had.

Java with Spark.

Although I feel like I’m doing less of data science and more of data processing.

They targeted gamers

I still haven’t grown out of my ctrl + alt + del habit

Instructions unclear. Now I got 10 billion modules.

I hope it’s not Tyler Durden who’s loading new gifs this time

Jobs that are done in environments that are dangerous for humans. Or at least make these jobs safer for humans.

I’m not sure which jobs this will entail, but if a technology is able to reduce dead people on the job I think it’s a good thing.

I like being free of wires on my desk. Having to replace batteries of my mouse and keyboard once every 6 months is a price I’m willing to pay.

Most things are wireless these days. I only actively use two ports: one for monitor + charging, and another for the second monitor. Mouse, keyboard and headphones are via Bluetooth.

For me the top one works fine for my day to day use. And it takes up less space in my backpack.

Still impressive it managed to count up to 6

How else am I going to get that daily dose of superiority complex?

A blockchain is just a list of records. You put data in it, and you have some script that ensures the data is internally valid. For example, with cryptocurrencies you can’t allow a transaction that causes a balance to be less than 0. A blockchain containing such transaction is invalid.

This is nothing particular. You can do this with most data records.

What’s unique about blockchain is that if you have two blockchains, both are internally valid but have records that disagree with each other, then you have a way to decide entirely by yourself which one you should prefer. For example, with Bitcoin you choose the blockchain with most “work”. No need to ask some third party about which one you should prefer.

And that’s where it falls apart. These situations are rare. There might be a few niche cases. I haven’t heard of any use case that’s particularly convincing to me.

I don’t really know how to describe him. I guess Casey is proof that one can be skilled in programming, but still have a fundamental lack of understanding in software engineering.

This is just so wrong. He’s too nostalgic of the Amiga days.

First, he has no concrete proof that many lines of code is bad. He’s just saying “I feel like things are worse now and here’s a graph that correlates with my feelings”.

And then he shows a graph of the number of lines in the Linux kernel. Yeah, Linux grew in size mid 90s because that was when people wanted to make it work on computers other than Torvald’s own!

Secondly, no one wants to plug in an USB and grant whatever is in it full machine access. It’s a major security concern, and people want multitasking. What if I want to listen to Spotify while I play my game?

The USB thing is likely not going to work either way because it can’t take into account for all possible configurations. Too bad, this program doesn’t recognize your specific WiFi card. You have to survive without internet.

Unless someone manages to perfectly standardize everything that can possibly happen in a computer. That ain’t going to happen.

The point of the movie is that suppressing sadness is a bad thing

My day is no longer fine
