In all seriousness build pipes are a bane.
In almost all companies I worked with was a constant toil because pipelines needed to be updated, modified. Testing them is slow, and business never understood why do we spend so much time on stuff *that doesn't make money*.

The most recent iOS build includes some of our internal dev tooling. Turns out this was caused by a race condition in our build pipeline. An internal build was running at the same time as the production build, and the build-number got misassigned. I blame DNS.

Hey fediverse!
Lots of people like the All In Podcast. Nowadays they're seen more right-leaning or even trumpist.
Do you know other podcasts that are similar, but you'd characterise them more left-leaning or centrist?

Been talking to a very senior & and smart engineer today. He's been using mac his ~whole life.
He wasn't aware that there's a Delete key on windows/Linux laptops that lets you delete forward. He's been using an extension in vscode to do so by pressing multiple keys.
I... Don't know what's happening.

TypeScript's type system lets you pull off all sorts of wild tricks.
But the moment something actually breaks? Good luck! You'll be playing detective in a maze.
It's like trying to find a specific grain of sand on the beach, but the beach is on fire, and the sand is screaming at you in TypeScript.

After being sacked from a previous government because she practically sold the UK as international development secretary.

"We tax more so we can spend more" is the clear signal that a government is incapable of doing their job. You're actually not doing anything, just putting the burden on the people.

Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery.
Not exactly a great documentary.
But if you watch it as a detective story about trying to piece together the origin of #bitcoin, it's quite entertaining.
But seriously, was there anyone who thought we'll learn who Satoshi Nakamoto is from a random docu? 🙂
