I was mostly joking.

Since LibreOffice 4.5ish I have preferred both writer and calc. Feels more robust and consistent + a lot snappier (incl. starttime). I only use it for collaborative editing of docx…

And I who thought the KDE/Gnome wars was over.

I disagree wrt office 365 (except for the collaborative editing in the browser feature). I dont recognize the price either - more like 22£ (unless its exchange only). Cost accumula…

I thought that was the definition of a manager?

Thats a nice way of putting cronyism, lobbyism and tech-iliteratism.

If you adjust only for inflation then its about 82% cumulative 1992-2018.

~70k today. Programming python in 92 - nice :)

I know Norway - was just curious. Your explanation matched my expectations. As most places: Once you hit the ceiling the only way forward is sales.

Maybe some are. There is however nothing nothing elegant about running 5 massive electron, node etc apps in your browser w. 60% code overlap grinding everything to a halt. Its not …

I agree. Maybe its the barrier to entry for publishing that has gotten a lot lower and thus pushing down the quality of public code (which is natural). Or maybe im just worried abo…

I disagree completely - javascript encourages shitty programming by design and by culture. If you don’t expose the young chances are they won’t get infected.

No such thing as “Data science” - just a fancy term for trade school computer skills. Thats why.

Unfortunately most people will never encounter such a manager.

You don’t ask the cattle if it wants to be slaughtered.

Linux will run on almost everything these days. Of course they care: Linux desktops are finally starting to run out of the box. Kill the baby before it grows up.

Yes - very unreasonable. Im sure its an enormeous expense. Better keep those devices 10 security updates behind to make sure the bloatware still works. I mean - they already paid r…

Your an econ freshman arent you?

Oh THATS why android gets so few updates.. (pardon the sarcasm). Its all because of those damn linux renegates - ruining software for the rest of us. Somebody ought to stop the lin…

All right - thanks for the elaboration. The perfomance diff sounds interesting. I might check it out at some point :)

Im curious to what tasks you felt you could not solve in bash incl. the nix toolchain?

compared to?
