I’ve been around on the internet for longer…

Are you saying that never happens? I too have been around the internet for long. Votes come in waves. The first wave is usually full of trash, discarded water bottles and weird coconuts. The second wave on-wards is clean. It also depends on your timezone.

Hmm sorry for calling you a Rube. You make a fair point.

two verbose flags makes it extra verbose

tcpdump intensifies

But what tool did you have in mind?

In the future? This is lemmy, we can actually edit titles.

which makes sense to me. params is passing the reference to the dict into the function. Whereas, **params is expanding the dict into the scope of the function before calling the first line of the body.

You can update the content of the former in-place, while the latter is just syntactic sugar for variadic function arguments.

You're ignoring 20+ years of how it was the only player when web wasn't so big as it is today. It was a major reason windows became the default OS in many offices, and as an extension of that, in the majority of homes in the 2000s to 2015. Thus majority of software industry and video gaming companies made their home in windows. Adobe Photoshop, AutoCAD, and many other industry software was made to work in Windows first.

There was also the case of Microsoft tilting the playing field by significantly discounting laptop and Desktop OEMs for Windows license keys just to be the sole OS installed on many computers. The concept of a PC was one which was running some version of Windows.

This also lead to another compounding aspect: Piracy of windows software made the windows AD/Server experts of today. Since Linux was free, there wasn't as much of an intrigue on running it vs. A pirated copy of windows running pirated copy of many software.

Oh sorry for that. Meant to reply to the asshole not your comment.

How is it different in capitalism? You are forced to get a degree in something you can get a job.

Capitalism doesn't work unless you are rich.

Blame the companies who don't want to do anything that impacts their growth

if you asked me what we as a species messed up in, I would immediately point out how we should never have incentivized greed and lack of morals that Capitalism encourages.

All of those were made when American companies had a semblance of building actually good products.

It's supposed to work like that. You're naive to think it actually does work like that for a majority of companies nowadays.
