I've only been bullied once, so it's hard for me to really talk outside of that single time. I'm different and I've never given too many fucks about social norms or hierarchies, and I guess a bully from two grades above

I'm mid fourties and I remember bordercrossings were annoying back in the 90ies. I'm Danish so we didn't enter Schengen until around 2000. I guess it didn't help that I was young enough that we traveled by bus. Once when

I think it's more of an EU problem. We have so many public apps that rely on two big American tech companies solely because the EU has yet to figure out an alternative app store with enough security to make those apps available. This l

As cool as this is there won't be an European alternative as long as all the apps you'd want to use on a smartphone require either Google Play or the Apple App store.

Microsoft did some research on it 15-20 years ago for .NET which showed that sync doesn't scale for I/O workloads. The rest of the world sort of "knew" at this point, and all the callback and statemachine hell which came

We're a much smaller scale company and the cost we lose on these things is insignificant compared to what's in this story. Yesterday I was improving the process for creating databases in our azure and I stumbled upon a subscriptio

I think the OO hatred comes from how academia and certain enterprise organisations for our industry picked it up and taught it like a religion. Molding an entire generation og developers who wrote some really horrible code because they were

Both score 7 now though. This scores 6: function a(b) { return b[0]; } This scores 3: const a = (a) => a;

I'm not sure how you can infer types on this. Even if you input an array of users from a different function. How would we know that data[0] is a User and not undefined?

Maybe I'm doing things wrong, but I assume this tool is meant to focus on cognetive complexity and not things like code quality, transpiling or performance, but if that's true then why does this: (score is 7) function get_first_us

I don't think this comment will contribute much, so please forgive that, but calling a "Collaboration between Europol and the Shadowserver Foundation" for "Euro cops" is probably the most Australian thing I've

If it goes by WIFI and not the wired network it'll be rather of useless in every enterprise organisation I've ever worked in. I'm not sure I've even worked in a place where the WIFI wasn't a guest network. Don'

Was MERGE too slow/expensive? We tend to MERGE from staging or temporary tables when we sync big data sets. If we were on postgres I think we'd use ... ON CONFLICT, but MERGE does work.

I have smart lighting, but that's only because it means I can turn everything in the area living and eating room on/off with a single button/switch (not sure what the right English term is). In a typical Danish townhouse like

Since we are pulling numbers out of our asses can you tell me what good advice that 95% of the people aren't capable of following is? It's great that our national health institutes advices us, but can you explain how the advice is

Ofcom is simply doing their job. I doubt they care about the users of 4chan. They will fine the company in accordance to UK law. Then if the company does not comply Ofcom will target their advertisers and it's Japanese owner who lives

We had Python and C. We aimed for Go. Now we have Python and C. Yhe deeper story is more change management than technically. We hoped we could obtain advantages from Go because we, perhaps naively, figured it would lessen the gap between pr

No, just C ABI compatible libraries. Maybe when there are two fridays in a week we will have enough time to do some actual adoption.

I quite like that Zig works a drop in for C in a few use cases. It's been very nice to utilize it along with our Python and regular C binaries. We attempted to move into Go because we really like the philosophy and opinions it force up

As an EU citizen the biggest issue for me is that even if I bought a fairphone with grapheneOS, it might as well be a "dumb" phone. This is because all the apps to make our daily lives non-annoying require the Google Play or the A

On the other hand you can't sue a company for losing your data in many EU companies. You can report them to whatever data protection agency your country has, and after an investigation they can fine, and/or, in more serious cases

Who do you imagine will get fired? The CISO who's been recommending various security imporvements and been trying to get them implemented, but been unable to do so due to a lack of C level interest in IT. Or the C level's who lack

I work in solar, so we have quite a lot of hardware which doesn't run on free software. We couldn't patch part of our inverter pipeline because the hardware was proprietary and had no open alternatives. We had to pay quite a lot o

To limit the amount of languages we support I recently rewrote one of our backend services from Go (with SQLC) to Python. I hadn't worked with Python "web" for a while and started with Litestar and also their Advanced-Alchemy

Even though it's the same app and ID, there is a bit of a difference between the company ID tied to my digital ID and my private digital ID. You can get a physical code thingie instead of the phone app for private use. To be honest tho

Sort of. We're heavily containerized and have almost no reliance on Azure only services. So we could deploy it to any EU cloud, or even put it on our own hardware if needed. In the worst case, we could use work laptops as a linux clust

Mainly that I've yet to follow through on my 5+ year old plan on building a small greenhouse and using solar for water pumping. For most use cases it's a fairly bad "business case" compared to simply buying the power you
