How do you sell what you did as “it just worked”? Rightaway? You lied to them. You have your coworkers on an unmanaged machine with a foreign OS on the guest WiFi with custom networking. Don’t oversell a workaround as a solution.

Simplifying the problem to “Windows” seems unfair, given how many problems you found. All of them still require a long-term solution for regular operation.

You don’t realize a 500km route you take once is shit. It’s when the software sends you on a shit route across town every single day when you measure quality.

They realized that they can get away with stealing data. No reason to keep up the facade anymore

These people claimed their product can pass the bar exam (it was a lie). Tells you how they feel about the legal system

You’re not banning anything. Reddit runs the bots

A minute ago I saw a post that was a screenshot of a tweet of a screenshot of a Chinese social media post, claiming some shit. People upvote that.

There is a period between filing a patent and actually receiving it. Maybe you’ve seen the phrase “patent pending” before. That likely plays a role here, if I read this right

It expired recently https://patents.google.com/patent/US7072849B1/en

The Internet is not supposed to be a source of happiness, that’s a sell by some platforms you should never buy into. The Internet is a source of information, and information will not make you happy.

Gaming, social media, or most other online interaction, is ultimately masturbation. It feels good for the moment, but it doesn’t last; you have nothing to look back on but Steam achievements or vacant profiles on a dead platform at the end.

If you’re suffering from depression, you likely can’t work yourself out of it through your own actions alone. Seek support. Things will not improve otherwise.

Especially because TypeScript compiles down to JavaScript JS

SmegmaScript is just too close

Fake Amazon reviews is a service you can buy to boost your product. Using genAI is an obvious move for these providers. Makes it harder for Amazon to find the fakes, because they can generate more content variety.

When you run a botnet for such a service, you can’t only put 5 star reviews on your client’s products. You want a variety of usage pattern modifiers to stay below the radar. Putting reviews on semi-random products is one technique.

Takes 4 days to get it started.

Makes sense. But what about couples and families?

Some people look so young like they haven’t even fucked their own parents yet. Always better to ask for official government documentation before serving them alcohol

I’m just waiting for someone to lecture me how the speed record in wheelchair sprint beats feet’s ass…

Having dark skin doesn’t make you immune to being a piece of garbage human being. She married JD. She knows what he says in private

Ultimately, it doesn’t matter what caused you to be blocked from Docker Hub due to rate-limiting. When you’re in that scenario, it’s most cost efficient to buy your way out.

If you can’t even imagine what would lead up to such a situation, congratulations, because it really sucks.

Yes, there should be a cache. But sometimes people force pull images on service start, to ensure they get the latest “latest” tag. Every tag floats, not just “latest”. Lots of people don’t pin digests in their OCI references. This almost implies wanting to refresh cached tags regularly. Especially when you start critical services, you might pull their tag in case it drifted.

Consider you have multiple hosts in your home lab, all running a good couple services, you roll out that new container runtime upgrade to your network, it resets all caches and restarts all services. Some pulls fail. Some of them are for DNS and other critical services. Suddenly your entire network is down, and you can’t even get on the Internet, because your pihole doesn’t start. You can’t recover, because you’re rate-limited.

I’ve been there a couple of times until I worked on better resilience, but relying on docker.io is still a problem in general. I did pay them for quite some time.

This is only one scenario where their service bit me. As a developer, it gets even more unpleasant, and I’m not talking commercial.

OCI

Where are their numbers coming from? The central registry of carbon emissions for genAI data centers? They know shit. They’re probably shorting Nvidia and are crying over their losses. Fuck Morgan Stanley
