Ahhhh the sweet corporate nostalgia of my youth

Thank you for cute penguin content

Woo
hoo

Robert Martin is screaming somewhere. Say what you will about him being out of touch, he did have some good points on writing readable code.

Like null should never be a special value.

And obviously the horrible naming.

Hmmm I need a datatype with three states… Should I use a named enum? No, no that’s too obvious…

The variable name is 90% why this is so unreasonable. Code is for humans to read, so names matter.

What happens when you dehumanize people. If you fail to recognize the dignity inherent in all people you can excuse grievous shit like this.

I just set up a bare repo on a server.

Thank fuck git itself is FOSS. I would be pretty lost without it.

Wow. You raise some interesting points and according to every reliable source, these facts actually check out.

Nice numbers! 🤯

I kind of dropped off with my own practice of improving OSM - one of the downsides of getting into bike riding.

I think they mean not renting? Or maybe living in a defensible space??

Ick

What did it cost you

Ah very good guide, thank you. Did not see the forks at all.

I find I can make them go away if I focus on the center of the image and lightly unfocus my eyes. But you’re right - it’s not without effort.

Same with fedoras. Always loved that hat, but increasingly was communicating something other than what I wanted.

I really dislike interobangs. They just look like a printer error.

This is surfing in mass transit

It’s the same thing with trying to make the fediverse more popular. I’m glad people have found their way to communities they’re happy with, but things were just fine before.

You don’t need a Lord to maintain a property though. That is the function of a superintendent, which is a role small landlords sometimes assume, and yes that is a job that should be compensated.

But it has nothing to do with owning and rentseeking.

Wow what a messed up situation. Surprising to hear the tenant was wealthy. I still maintain that the only winning move is not to play.

Yeah being a landlord makes you into the bad guy despite intentions. You’ll always make back whatever “losses” you incurred in equity, because we have a crazy for profit housing market.

Landlord/renter is an abominable financial relationship.
