It’s fine, it’s a really long test.

The meme is about the journey to acquire wisdom, not intelligence. It fits IMO, despite representing the lack of wisdom as low intelligence.

Just use Joplin. It checks all those boxes, it’s only flaw is being an electron application.

I use it too, but it doesn’t have something like canvas. You have to write them in Mermaid markdown like a caveman.

The canvas built in is the easiest UI I’ve used to make mind maps, I’d surely miss it if I had to migrate.

The community plugin “Google Drive Sync” is free, open source, and lets you (clunkily but effectively) bypass Obsydian Sync. One less server to manage.

SpaceX is still doing truly revolutionary work, and that usually gets you in regulatory trouble. Of everything Musk, I think this company is the greatest thing his paws have made.

I will change opinion if his dream is actually becoming the dictator of the first Nazi Mars Colony, but I wish SpaceX much success in its endeavors for the time being.

I see “opinionated” and I become instantly skeptical. I want software to be flexible, not inflexible. I want to make it work my way, not viceversa.

We made it guys!

It would be the signal that Intel is on life support, and the world can move to ARM or RISC V

Broadcom is a scavenger predator

My last COBOL work was in a bank that replaced COBOL with Java and minicomputers with the indies servers in a misguided effort to modernize. Before that we had five mainframe programmers, after Java we had a dozen more and no one was really sure how many layers that Java onion had. People kept piling abstractions on it in another misguided effort to make it simple.

I worked with COBOL for a good part of a decade. It’s a joy to see structured and well-commented code from pros, the consistency is such that there’s a point after a few months when you “get it”, and the code base becomes like putty in your hands.

Never have felt that way with modern platforms, with the exception of maybe Python. Old-school structured programming can be beautiful, and the tooling is super straightforward. Development these days has taken a turn for the worse in terms of sheer complexity for even simple tasks.

TL;DR: If if pays well in your market, don’t be afraid of COBOL if you’re a capable software developer. You will get it faster than you think.

Woah, who said I’m fine with that? I’m Mexican and very much resent the idiocy of Trump, but our president is also an idiot who “threatens” to do something, but I can assure you she will not actually do anything.

IMO she’s posturing to her base, but she says she might go against Google because she doesn’t dare to go against Trump, and she needs to look like she’s doing something.

Meanwhile, we have very urgent problems in Mexico like rampant crime, medicine scarcity, corruption, etc. that she doesn’t even mention in her daily morning speeches.

Right. Thirsty marketers ruin everything.

The (solar) system leaves them no other way of life! We need to make opportunities for them to orbit a stable planet and become moons.

Why do we need to convince them in the first place? I see them as the equivalent of internet trolls, they know they’re wrong and half the fun is moving the goalposts.

Pro: they die shortly after mating

Con: they leave hundreds of nepobabies

Semelparity: “Fuck it, I’m gonna nut to death”

USA has done “preemptive strikes” and “enhanced interrogation “, I’m sure they will find a workaround.

The new name shows only for USA. In Mexico it’s unchanged, or shown with both names.

Our president is dumb and just wants to look like she’s fighting back without actually doing anything significant.
