Chargerless charging :)

Exactly. You could have a million line pom.xml and you'd still most likely just need `mvn clean package` to get a usable JAR. XML is a nasty format but it just works...

Eww, proprietary software...

/s (but not really)

Not to mention:

Waymo: "you can't have a self-driving car without LIDAR, trust us"

Also waymo: "on a different note: we sell LIDAR now, completely unrelated tho"

Well now I'm glad I stuck with Mikrotik...

Are there any similar course builder tools that allow you to "fake" the language? I'd like to make a course for Papyrus[0], the scripting language used for modding Fallout and Elder Scrolls games but there is no runtime for this language outside the game and it wouldn't really make sense running it that way anyway... (So basically just verify the entered code matches some kind of "template" but with tolerance for different new-lines, indentation, variable names, etc.)

According to Wikipedia[0], citing the Verge[1], she has been fired...

One thing that really bothers me about this is the micro HDMI connector... It's a notoriously bad and unreliable connector and the board looks like it could've fit a full-sized HDMI.

Not to mention the $10,000 bug bounty...

Not to mention they will disable the ads for you if you contact their support, for free, no questions asked...

My estimate, based on the approximate dimensions of my jeans front pocket and the size and thickness of a $100 bill, would be around 5~8 thousand dollars... Multiple times that if you REALLY stuff it in there...

Welp, can't micromanage people working from home...

Also https://old.reddit.com, much faster than the new version but more desktop-device-friendly than the mobile version.

Even cancelling the free plan completely would still be less insulting than this.

Time to switch to a real text editor such as Vim then :)

Go enterprise, use a coffee cup

This was a strange one: when I worked for a FinTech company that shall remain nameless, I had a work laptop but I had to RDP to a remote machine. I had full Admin access to the remote work machine (that had access to everything, even being in the same datacenter and subnet as the production servers), meanwhile, for "security reasons", I couldn't even change the wallpaper on the laptop.

Simple, it's Friday :)

If you can go all day on a single charge you're not on an Intel laptop. Go Mac. :)

It's not just that. They won't let me read it without an account. I don't want a medium account. The only workaround is to clear cookies or open it in a private window and I don't care enough to bother doing either of those things.

I really don't understand why people use a mediocre blogging platform that seems to be dedicated to inconveniencing their users as much as humanly possible.

Calling it AWS is a horrible idea...

Is it just me or does Medium actively not want me to read the article?

Funny. Shame it's just an Ad for yet another shady trading app...

Yep, seems down... Not surprised tho, downdetector's top sites today are Robinhood, Ameritrade, E-Trade, Charles Schwab, Fidelity, Webull and other market and investment related websites

How about not allowing Facebook to spy on you?

> Let me introduce you to some programmers I have had to clean up after. Any language can be made into an inefficient pile of shit. I'm sure you've seen the same.

Ah, haven't noticed that... In that case the HipChat bit makes more sense although I still wouldn't call it popular...

WhatsApp switched to Signal Protocol in 2016 however so that point still stands.

I'm a bit out of the loop... Anyone got a TL;DR for why he decided to come back to Russia knowing full well he will be arrested?

Did the author of the article bother to do any research at all?

The "popular" messaging service HipChat has been dead since 2018 when Slack acquired it's codebase and moved it's users to Slack.

WhatsApp no longer runs on Jabber/XMPP. They used to run on modified eJabberd a long time ago but these days they use a combination of Signal and something custom...
