Google won't ever take a break until we all pay for YouTube Premium. I think this trojan horse is mostly because of apps like New Pipe, Vanced, SmartTube and ad blockers in general.

Thats even worse than not having cheap ereaders, many countries are nowadays Amazon Kindle's hostage. Brazil for example, used to have many others competitors in the market like 5 to 10 years ago (Kobo, Lev Neo, etc). Now it is just Kindle. If you want to read ebooks, you "have" to buy a kindle.

"I am even consciously scaling back on copilot use now whenever possible, and prioritizing Google search, reading documentation, blog posts and stackoverflow now."

Very soon we will run out of human written articles.

As for my experience, nothing beats nodejs for fast scripting. Its literally just `npm install x y z` and then fire it up `$ node script.js`. But Im giving Java a chance.

Glad to know about this since I had never had the opportunity to go into a cyber cafe. I recall the first time I saw one, it was in the ending scene of the film The Beach (2000), and it looks very, very similar to the green one in Rotterdam.

But IAM is supposed to be Global, not us-east-1

Is it time for a browser extension to ad block Amazon internals?

Reminded me of old Macromedia Flash webpages

Laughed so much here, but such a kafkaesque nightmare.

I worked in a room next to a public library in the late 2000s and since the work was not that demmanding, I had plenty of time to read and explore the library. Someday I found a room full of old books that were not catalogued, it was a donation from the family of the town`s main doctor that had recently died. I spent a few weeks exploring his collection and when I went into a science fiction book, I dont remember exactly but I think it was Arthur C Clarke Profiles of the Future, I found a receipt dating beginning 60`s, it was a receipt from an airplane company. The doctor had been the mayor in that time and had paid the company just to have a plane flying low over the town.

I could never exactly figure out his motivations but I like to think that there was some sort of commemoration going on in town and he hired the flight just to have people know what a plane was like. It happened in a very rural area of Brazil, in a town that by time that had not more than 1000 habitants, no television, no paved roads, almost nothing.

Thanks, very useful. I'm just finding it hard do adapt and find a place for the role of a Software/System Architect (which is very common in my industry) in the framework since it conflicts a bit with the other roles, mainly, Tech Lead. I`m thinking of Software/System Architect to be a TL7.

This reminded me a novel by Chuck Palahniuk called 'Choke' which one of the characters is addicted to collecting rocks. He is already in the news and perhaps from now on some sort of 'cult' starts.

I've got a LG Gram 16" running with Fedora. Loving it.

That's a good question, the first thing that came to my mind was someone cloning cards.
