ausgestattet mit einer Ray-Ban-Brille und einem denkbar unsinnigen Spruch: „I have a bike, you have a bike, so I thought we could make a race.“

Ungläubig schaue ich mich um und frage, wo er denn hier ein Fahrradrennen machen wolle. Er habe mich bloß angesprochen, weil er mich süß findet, sagt er dann. Wie unerwartet.

Ich weiß, Pick-Up-Artists sind generell nicht die hellste Leuchte in der Dunkelkammer, aber warum lädt man so ein Video hoch? Das klingt einfach nur maximal
cringe.

Also really annoying that you often hardly get feedback that it is now booting up, because it takes another few seconds before the screen turns on. At various points, I've pressed that button, didn't notice that it was turning on, and then pressed it again, which turned it back off.

Yeah, I enjoyed when fish shell did their rewrite and people were arguing whether it makes sense technologically, like it's a mature codebase, so it's not likely to reduce the number of bugs and yadda yadda yadda.

None of this mattered, because fish is developed by a group of hobbyists. They didn't want to continue developing in C++, because it was a pain in the ass. And for sure, one of the reasons they wanted to switch to Rust is because it's new and exciting.
These reasons are perfectly valid, because they're volunteers. If they're not having fun, then they will just developing.

Yeah, computationally intensive stuff is going to be slow when implemented in Python. You will find lots of data science libraries for Python that do computationally intensive stuff, but they're then generally implemented in C/C++ or Rust, with only a thin API layer written in Python.

Dachte bisher, dass es einfach nur ein Witz war. Lese deinen Pfosten und denke kurz, oh, das war doch echt?

Kind of wild that they managed to portray this loop in just 4 panels...

"Oven is going to be a grind, especially the first nine months or so. If work-life balance means a lot of time spent not working, it's probably not a good fit."

Oh man, someone here recently shared a blog post on startup culture in software companies, which likened software to an oven, where you'd add a specific button for a customer and that fucks up your whole architecture for years to come etc..

For just a moment, I thought this was a direct quote from that blog post.

I mean, I'd need to fiddle around with it, but presumably this wouldn't be all too hard to script.

Just do a for-loop over the output of ls. And then in each iteration step, you'd do something like:

mkdir $name
mv $name $name/$name

This will mean, though, that the file extension is part of the folder name, if you care about that.

Well, in hopes that you're not just trolling, maybe you'll believe a dictionary that "stable" is ambiguous in this context. Because this is one of the listed meanings:

(computing) Of software: established to be relatively free of bugs, as opposed to a beta version.

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/stable#Adjective

It also lists your meaning. I'm not saying that you're wrong. I'm saying it's ambiguous, i.e. there's two meanings that could apply here.
Well, and personally, I do feel like more people will interpret "stable" to mean bug-free here, because Debian is a piece of software to them.
