Also a funny side note: Why do people who seemingly care about public opinion so much always screw up their public opinion? I'd argue torturing people is more in their interest tha…

Huh? There's a political battle for CEO in a multi million dollar startup and then the very new CEO dies on a drug overdose and nobody talks about possible murder?

I don't really understand why they don't "teleport". There are additional ways to get to a point ahead of a slowed down train with a replacement train, right? When you see one is d…

Problem with that is user experience, even for hardcore terminal users like me. So I doubt anybody would really develop it in a DF level of indepth-ness. Like, think how non-square…

If you merge all the PRs into your fork and he doesn't, then you are the main branch. Welcome to open source.

And they fail so much it is painful to watch. Strangely in capitalism the fit will sell themselves when able to get a really sweet deal. But the unfit will "survive" in some sense …

Most people probably forget how you could use a "stalk my ex" russian bulletin board service for $50 to stalk yourself. Russian script kiddies are probably happy to comply since th…

I have a friend in China who's trying to learn software development by himself. It's ridiculously hard compared to the west. It shouldn't be underestimated how Wikipedia, Stackover…

Gold standard. Discussing fantasy worlds in a tech platform. Don't forget me some goblins though.

what do people say who already moved on to 4G? I mean some of us want to watch Netflix on mobile phones as well.

Hm, they must have gained a shit load of new content creators. Porn and + was not just 30% of tumblr, it was like 80% of it.

It is actually quite stupid to get a unicorn valuation if you are not a really good fit for world conquering business. In all other regards it is people gambling using other people…

welcome to the real world, bro.

In my country you are by law required to be loyal to your company even if its doing illegal or unfair things, even after you quit. So if you just get fired and not get sued for dam…

No, he's saying you can build this stuff on your own and don't need to grab it from anywhere.

docker is currently killed by the kubernetes community btw. It's a slow death in some regards (1+ years) but quick in regards to "it will replace anything in 10 years".

Oh boy, the rabbit hole. Check out this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slackware Yep, a linux based on the idea of Slack, developed '93. And just as there's the Spaghetti Monster, …
