Is a VPN even worth it for that use case? A seedbox won't cost that much more, esp. if you factor in electricity costs from keeping your machine running. And getting to 1.0 seed ratio is also much easier.

Who do we throw into the reactor when the majority of people DEMAND something that is only possible with massive destruction of nature, horrendous waste of resources and horrible immoral practices?

If we kill all the "evil" factory farm owners, but still demand cheap meat every day, we'll end up reinventing that same horrible system.

Wasn't that Blizzard/Riot?

Am I a poor little victom instead of an oppressor because I didn't personally create patriarchy, white supremacy, ableism, heteronormativity? If I keep supporting those systems, at least when I'm an adult, I am an oppressor and fully responsible.

Well, thats only a relevant distinction if they meaningfully differentiate between Hamas and Palestinian. Considering they've talked about using nukes, that they think sacrificing an entire hospital full of innocents to maybe kill a few Hamas, and that we DAMN WELL KNOW how racism means generalizing anyone of a group to be the worst kind of that group, and the fact that the totally un-Hamas west bank is getting ethnically cleansed too, it's incredibly naive to think they'll leave any reasonable amount of palestinians alive.

I don't understand the need for Ctrl-C/V, when manually copying the text exists. I know it's snarky, but that's the level of difference we're talking about here. Or imagine, to delete a line, someone Right Arrows 50 times, then backspaces 50 times, instead of using the shortcut.

Without a DSL for writing SQL, any sufficiently complex program will end up with string concatinating all over the place. Basically, writing a language with ZERO checks or highlighting or anything. That's asking for trouble.

But coming from Java, I agree that some ORMs go way too far.

The Prime Video example was more like moving from nano-service insanity to sanity. They basically split EVERY POSSIBLE STEP into separate lambdas. They switched to still using microservices, but they do all transcoding steps for a single video on the same microservice instance (aka sanity).

How's the filesystem performance? Whenever I've mounted something into a Docker Container, the performance has suffered. For example, things like NPM/MVN suddenly take way longer.

How do you manage JVM versions? We have many older projects that use 8, and some newer ones using 17, for example.

What do you gain from that approach, compared to comments, and appropriate whitespace? If you spread out your function over three, you now potentially have triple the moving parts. You have to manage in- and output, and you have to hope noone coming after you sees your subfunction, and assumes it's there for using.

We used to have a Python guy at my work. For a lot of LITTLE ETL stuff he created Python projects. In two projects I've had to fix up now, he used different tooling. Both those toolings have failed me (Poetry, Conda). I ended up using our CI/CD pipeline code to run my local stuff, because I could not get those things to work.

For comparison, it took me roughly zero seconds to start working on an old Go project.

Python was built in an era where space was expensive and it was only used for small, universal scripts. In that context, having all packages be "system-wide" made sense. All the virtual env shenanigans won't ever fix that.
