Sure thing. Just remember its better to do things you want to do rather than waiting for things to be perfect. Lord knows its something I need reminded of sometimes
SAFe SCRUM is a fucking scam. Anyone who proposes it as a solution to a problem is out of touch and doesn’t recognize a waterfall when they see one
They’re terrorists, warlords, and sometimes both
That and Disney decided they wanted to break (sorry. Let me use the business terms. “Disrupt”) the market by having a vertical integration of streaming platform and production company. The thing is, it did great for the in the short term, but may have harmed them long term. Meanwhile everyone else is now chasing the model that may actually be losing Disney money because short term greed is the only driver in our economy
Yuuup. This blog post is the exact sentiment I see from people with postgraduate degrees in the field of machine learning. The current, public facing, machine learning AI implementations are various forms of theft, grift, and exploitation. They exist as the new testaments to violence of the neocolonial era
Okay but that’s ALSO what Peacock is. Look at peacock’s catalog and Netflix catalog and tell me its better rather than just different
Let me take this opportunity to get on my soapbox to sat this:
NBC / Universal were one of the first movers in streaming with Seeso. Did they learn lessons from Seeso about how to run a good streaming service? No they abandoned it almost immediately basically saying “this whole streaming thing is just a fad, anyway”
The results? Now its hard to watch those old (genuinely excellent) Seeso shows, and NBC / Universal has managed to make itself late to the streaming party when they were a first actor. And the service itself? Ass. Total cheeks. Major butt. Absolute balloon knot. It always has technical issues AND scanning within an episode is hard because it doesn’t do it in chunks, it acts like a slider in constant motion.
Conclusion: don’t look at Peacock as the idiot child of the streaming landscape. View it as the logical conclusion to media companies’ corporate greed. They want you to pay money for a service that sucks, that’s chock full of ads (oh! That’s another thing. Where do you get off showing me three minutes of ads, Peacock, who do you think you are?), and doesn’t even work decently right while a lot of these UX problems have been solved for over two decades (DVD scanning is easy and fine).

I’m going to give what I’ve realized newer folks to Vim think is a scorching hot take: VimL is nice. Theyre the same editor commands you use in your day to day life, even if you’re using NeoVim + Lua, just all written out in a file.
That said, using NeoVim + Lua makes it far easier to organize your config, which also makes it easier to write more complex configs. It’s like the difference between building a shed around back for your home office vs building a cathedral. Its fine to work in a shed, but once you know you can build a cathedral, you’re kinda tempted to just up and do it
VS Code + vim plugin is sooo slooow. I’m happy it works for you but I can’t wait to finish on boarding my onboarding buddy so I can go back to vim where I belong
wobbles hands capitalism!
“Free Speech Absolutism” is a dog whistle for “We want to platform Nazis and deplatform anyone who says Nazis are bad”
So not only does it include foreign propaganda by a fascist regime, it’s mainly foreign propaganda by a fascist regime
Wwwow that’s some offensive bullshit
Whatever brain dead piece of cartiledge thought we needed more transparency into citizen lives has made justice harder to achieve.
My suspicion is that’s part of the design
This is both a violence against the LGBTQIA+ community and their allies problem and an access to guns problem. This man got big in his feelings, did something impulsive, and now a woman and himself are both dead. Easy access to guns makes escalating situations ALL THE WAY instantaneously so easy…
Dont they also strongly encourage employees to a read New Age Mysticism book? A book on a philosophy like what’s described in The Secret where its like… If bad things happen in your life its because you manifested them?
Ask yourself. What motive does someone have to want trump dead?
Hint: a large number of someones have a large number of motives
