Why waste your time trying to decode the bends and twists of the glyphs of the alphabet when you can have the code whispered into your ear by a halitotic Plan 9 user? You're paid to code, not to decode arcane glyphs for your own amusement.<|eor|><|sor|>Not to be a downer but I find Plan 9 users are hard to come by these days.

The fact that they didnt even use arch made it highly suspect. The fact that the scripting was in power shell and not csh or plain sh was enough to make me request the host change the channel. The host agreed and we were shortly watching a twitch stream of Rust programmers hard at work.<|eor|><|eols|><|endoftext|>

What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.<|eor|><|eols|><|endoftext|>

If the documents contain what you said they contain and it's binding, you have basically split your software engineers into "solution architects" and "typing monkeys", one group making all the decisions and one group basically typing them out and compiling them. But as we all know Junior devs are the most valuable asset a company has, it's not like there's a fresh batch every 6mos and you can drive down to the local college and throw a few in the bed of your pickup truck... you better cater to their every whim. You note that the Sr. Devs don't complain, this is because they are so burnt out that they can't see how much better the ideas we just heard about but have never implemented in practice would make this project (They're basically idiots). HR has decided to fire all Sr. Level revs and only hire Jr. Devs from now on. Also, by dictatorial fiat, everything shall now be designed by committee! Hooray, HR saves the day. *Meanwhile, back at the Hall of Super Friends League* "Can we just fire the whiners and hire an all now batch of code monies when they graduate in 3mos?"<|eor|><|eols|><|endoftext|>

We'd have "set" sprints where we "wouldn't take on any more tasks", except when marketing would bug us about something. Luckily the most of the people in marketing were nice so you couldn't really get too mad at them. Then *allegedly* you were only allowed to take a certain amount of tasks that would equal a certain number which came from that dumbass Fibonacci based scoring system, but that of course never happened. Then there were meetings like...maybe ever other day or twice a week. God knows on what because I didn't have to go to them as a contractor. That didn't include the actual meetings related to agile.<|eor|><|eols|><|endoftext|>

It was written in a crowded Starbucks in San Francisco, California. Used by the first startup to ever need to share code to pad a string on the lefthand side. Up till then people just wrote their own goddamn routines. It was used by programmer "Pillsbury" Doughboy Erine Coolidge on the day he quit and moved to Paris. It was your great-grandfather's favorite module and he used it every day he worked at that startup. When he had done his duty, he went home to your great-grandmother, printed the module out, put it an old Soylent tin, and in that tin it stayed 'til your granddad Dane Coolidge graduated from Stanford and went to SF to work at a startup once again. This time they called it Web 3.0. Your great-grandfather gave this module to your granddad for good luck. Unfortunately, Dane's luck wasn't as good as his old man's. Dane was a webdev and he was killed -- along with the other webdevs -- during the deathmarch of Wakr Islr. Your granddad was facing death, he knew it. None of those boys had any illusions about ever leavin' that office alive. So three days before the first release of the product shipped, your granddad asked a rookie in QA name of Winocki, a man he had never met before in his life, to deliver to his infant son, who he'd never seen in the flesh, his treasured module. Three days later, your granddad was dead. But Winocki kept his word. After the startup launched, he paid a visit to your grandmother, delivering to your infant father, his Dad's leftpad module. This module. *(holds it a printout of the module, long pause)* This module was on your Daddy's Macbook when he fainted in a Philz. He hadn't slept in one month, hadn't showered in two, was put in a prison. He knew if the cops ever saw the module it'd be confiscated, taken away. The way your Dad looked at it, that module was your birthright. He'd be damned if any pigs were gonna put their greasy pink hands on his boy's birthright. So he hid it in the one place he knew he could hide something. His ass. Five long years, he hid this module up his ass. Then he died of dysentery, he gave me the module. I hid this uncomfortable hunk of paper up my ass two years. Then, after seven years, I was sent home to my family. And now, little man, I give the module to you. <|eor|><|eols|><|endoftext|>

(quote > that they felt that the SICP curriculum no longer prepared engineers for what engineering is like today. Sussman said that in the 80s and 90s, engineers built complex systems by combining simple and well-understood parts. The goal of SICP was to provide the abstraction language for reasoning about such systems. >Today, this is no longer the case. Sussman pointed out that engineers now routinely write code for complicated hardware that they dont fully understand (and often cant understand because of trade secrecy.) The same is true at the software level, since programming environments consist of gigantic libraries with enormous functionality. According to Sussman, his students spend most of their time reading manuals for these libraries to figure out how to stitch them together to get a job done. )[0] Today is the era of leftpad-ers and massive libraries. The era where sepples boost-ers replace the honest C craftsmen that design their own linked list and string libraries (segfaults be damned).
