Teams is trash, I have to use it with certain clients, slack for everything else. Literally everything it does is like a wish.com fail version of slack. Like if you ordered slack on temu.

It’s red hats in the USA

XML sucks- gradle was a groovy DSL which was very concise and easy, it was quite nice!

I wrote Java and jvm languages for a long time. Mostly a good experience. Maven and later gradle, groovy and spring boot really made it more fun to use. Spock is still my favorite testing framework. These days it’s all python and node for me though- but using those languages and their popular libs really shows how much better dependency management and testing was in the Java ecosystem even 10 years ago.

True- but they cost like 1000x more to develop too.

Edit: Some salty commenters here. This isn’t my graph, just one I grabbed. Notes aren’t mine.

I’m a huge proponent for inflation adjusted livable minimum wage- which should be close to $30 an hour these days. Also hugely worried about our housing cost trends.

I’m only pointing out that expecting games to cost 40-60 for life is a little silly- yall still paying $.10 for a loaf of bread? I remember when games inched from $40 to $60 and everyone lost their minds- no one complains about it anymore. Don’t wanna pay retail? Wait for sales, bundles, used copies.

This one hit hard

I wouldn’t be shocked by this

I read that as Michael Bay syndrome at first and thought “how terrible!”. Michelin Baby makes more sense.

If he’s such a hero, why is everyone happy he’s dead?

That’s dumb.

Yeah you can, but it’s damn hard. I’m aware of Daryl and he’s done great things, it it’s a tiny fraction of 1%.

Nah, it’s sports team mentality. You can say any reasoned, logical, humanist argument you want, but people will never turn against their “team”.

Head pointing down kills my neck, I adjust chair and display to make it straight infront of me.

Survivorship bias. The ones that died aren’t there to contradict them.

Those uniforms fit like they took them off a dead guy that wore a very poorly tailored uniform.

To be fair, he said he did this his first year in college- everyone did dumb shit in college.

Dumb post
