Don’t think half the comments understand what the Chromecast is…

Interested in finding out more about fcast now though.

And a lot of science libraries.

I mean, Fortran isn’t even dead. It was updated last year. Weird but it’s still a used language.

Right?

Ha yeah “Sr dev” was never seen again, the team member stuck around for quite a few more years.

“I know what a lot of you are thinking” Yeah what about Firefox? “It’s impossible to make a new web engine” Um… No … Probably not that hard really with pretty decent standards these days. Performance JavaScript is probably pretty hard and a lot of the fancier protocols.

Seriously, what makes you better than Firefox?

Whatever, another choice isn’t bad I guess.

Once we had a “sr developer” join a project from a consulting group. The project wasn’t going well so me and another dev started helping with some tasks as well.

After a couple days of helping, trying to get his web application to work with data from an API he turns to us and says “oh, json is just a string.”

The other developer from our team stared at him for a few seconds, stood up, walked out of the room and told the project manager something along the lines of “if that guy ever comes back in the building I’ll quit”

So yeah, json is just a string… But if that’s the end of your knowledge you’re in for a bad day.

I really appreciate this change. Prior to it was always a struggle to deploy servers successfully. You’d reboot and your database would be on the wrong interface and you could even remote in because the management interface was suddenly on a firewalled external only network. Ask me how I know.

With virtualization and containers this just got more complicated. I would constantly have to rewrite kvm entire configs because I’d drop a new nic in the machine. A nightmare.

Sure, it’s gibberish for the desktop user but you can just use the UI and ignore the internal name. Not even sure the last time I saw it on my laptop. So no big deal.

Don’t know who this person is but I have a hard time taking him seriously calling people children while reading out the emails like I high schooler dishing gossip and dismissing transphobic moderators as a “whoops”

I’m ashamed… It’s simply “bump deps”

Did I also touch some code and tests connected to dependency updates. Yes.

Did I document any of that? No.

Did I spend more time writing this comment the thinking about the commit. Most definitely.

Will I be bisecting to this commit after our next deploy and cursing at myself? Probably.

It was the baseline so… Yes?

The feature completion was defined as running most normal applications and by the people working on Wayland not me some random guy on the Internet.

Because no one is going to use Wayland, if they can’t… use it

That’s technically true but not the whole picture since it was missing huge (some would say basic) features I wouldn’t say it was really “released”

It was quite a while after that they called it and it’s libraries feature of complete. With wm DE integration and multiple monitors coming a while after that, it’s only been in the last maybe 5 years it was really usable? A solid option for a lot of people for maybe half that?

That makes it pretty dang new.

I feel like OP has his own definition for “tbh” in this comic,

tbh
