Ask Lopez what he thinks

Ass pennies?

Some places are inextricably tied to SimuLink due to how long it was around before any of the alternatives.

Give me links so I can send them to my maga parents

Can’t believe they showed one guy fucking another guys foreskin, that seemed really out of place

This is terrible advice.

OP needs to set boundaries in a paper traceable way after establishing then in person (an email of “dear boss lady, I want to eat lunch alone, kthxbye”), and track violations of those boundaries (dear boss lady, today you sat with me at lunch after I asked you not to, please explain why). (Obviously be more professional).

Then after a few violations, OP can go to HR because suddenly the boss lady is starting the fire; there is a clear history of personal boundaries not being maintained, leading to a hostile work environment.

This only doesn’t work when the company is like 5 people and HR is your boss’s cousin or whatever.

I started using Python ~15 years ago. I didn’t go to school for CS.

Compared to using literally anything else at the time as a beginner, pip was the best thing out there that I could finally understand for getting third party code to work with my stuff, without copy paste… on Windows.

When I tried Linux, package managers and make were pretty cool for doing C/C++ work.

Despite all that, us “regular” engineers were consigned to Windows.

We either had to use VBA or a runtime that didn’t need to be installed.

Downloading a movie only to find it was the pain Olympics or a cartel/terrorist beheading was also fun

I’m invested because higher adoption of my preferred platform causes prices of said platform to drop, making the platform economically attractive to develop for.

Fewer users causes less effort to go into the platform by larger corporations due to lower revenue streams, diminishing updates and feature count over time.

Eventually, users leave due to pain points not being addressed. Shrinking user bases causes independent developer talent to focus on other platforms since the economics no longer work in the marginal case.

The shrinking independent developer contributions to the ecosystem make the required effort to develop for it that much higher, since the tools and apps that would have been built weren’t.

Higher development costs slow down feature pacing, due to the increased effort needed to substitute the efforts of missing ecosystem developers.

Lack of feature cadence drives users to other platforms, shrinking the user base, bringing us back to step 1.

Carbon steel loses 70% of its strength at 800 degrees though.

It’s the recommended approach to replace WCF which was deprecated after .NET framework 4.8. My company is just now getting around to ripping out all their WCF stuff and putting in gRPC. REST interfaces were always a non-starter because of how “heavyweight” they were for our use case (data collection from industrial devices which are themselves data collectors).

Yay that’s like $60k saved

From other discussions I’ve seen, the guy stepping down was frustrated by having C code rejected that made lifetime guarantees more explicit. No rust involved. The patch was in service of rust bindings, but there was 0 rust code being reviewed by maintainers.

I can see the difference just fine; I’m male.

I think the blue tone is from a shitty LED bulb

I’m a mechanical engineer and have spent literal years in front of Creo and SolidWorks. Trying to use FreeCAD felt like flying a Cessna 172 after being accustomed to a business jet; they can ostensibly get you where you need to go, but the cost in effort to use the tool is not worth the cost saved in buying the commercial tool.

In my experience Perl is a write-only language. Coming in behind someone else and fixing or writing their code is often slower than just rewriting it
