Insanely fast experience.

Those "Flash Answers" are insanely quick. I don't know how they're doing it. But it's amazing.

Shell ads are quite common in the Netherlands. Usually it's shell trying to greenwash itself.

That sounds like an odd setup. Any chance this was near the airport? Also did you visit the Netherlands, or only Amsterdam? Because honestly, Amsterdam is in a league of its own wi…

Dutch cyclists also do all these things. As a driver in the Netherlands, you'll quickly learn that cyclists don't stick to any rules, they will cross red lights, use the wrong lane…

Yeah, the official docs for python rarely if ever show up on the first two pages of search unless I do `from: python.org`.

In my first job out of university, I inherited a data pipeline that had been written in Make using ~40 Makefiles. Needless to say, it was a hell to debug.

This is the default in the Netherlands for many office jobs as well. Usually in the form of 'Subclause 2: The nature of the job may demand work beyond the stated hours in subclause…

And how are they going to deal with the inevitable disinformation/hallucinations?

Holy cow, that's so unintuitive.

My main issue with multiple displays on Mac is that the dock sometimes suddenly switches display. Sometimes this doesn't happen for weeks, other times it happens multiple times a d…

Yes, this is a thing.

Teams has network effect behind it. Because so many businesses already use Teams, in a B2B-setting you're almost expected to already have Teams as well.

Ah yeah that same Dutch policy that made public transport 12% more expensive this year while simultaneously reducing service and with outages up a literal 300% from pre-covid times…

Names changes are only permitted in a very narrow set of conditions in my place of residence. And this would not be one of them. And I imagine that's the case in many nations.

Docker on MacOS runs through a Linux VM. Native containerization on MacOS is so badly supported many container runtimes don't even try. E.g. Podman on MacOS also runs through a Lin…

not OP, but I use terraform instead.
