Like I need a hole in my head.

DRY, but also pre-optimization and dependency hell are bad.

Browser too, and the whole activeX, and DirectX api system to practically force windows only development.

I’m gonna try this with my son, he knows with way clocks go better than his left and right.

That is still unparalleled with CUDA.

I still don’t understand how an open source alternative with better hardware support hasn’t happened yet.

A whole bunch of the companies that boomed died though.

Anyone remember bigwords.com? Or pets.com?

Its marketplace has been really popular in my area. Craigslist has all but dried up for may item types.

But they own Instagram as well don’t forget, and they have bought out many other competitors that we won’t ever get to experience.

Yeah, lack of competition is driving a lot of this. Fixing bugs doesn’t increase their stock value. It doesn’t make the line go up.

Launching products and bragging about profits makes the line go up (especially just before a quarter or monthly report is due).

AT&T/Bell Telephone was like this for years until they were finally broken up (nominally). When cellphones came out and provided nationwide competition, long distance suddenly became free.

We need to bust up google, Facebook, etc. They have nothing to push them to be better, just CEO egos and investors to please.

I discovered a legit bug in the handling of switch statements I a for loop in Actionscript 2 way back when Flash was still a thing.

Until I finally killed my blog about it last year, it was the only result other than my post on the adobe site around the same time. I don’t think it ever got fixed, but didn’t keep following after the iPhone finished off flash.

Or breaks a year later and your have to figure out what the fuck you made. The worst thing in the world is when you leave it for the next guy, and you end up being the next guy.

Solid joke, but hard to pull off in person if you’re over 6 feet.

Yeah plenty of well off liberal New Englanders have them around here. There are big Facebook groups about them and all kinds of online hype/bullshit (like everything at this point) about longevity, allergies, intelligence, etc.

They don’t shed as much, but the less they shed the more they need grooming, or they end up with mats and tangled.

It’s broader than one farm, my mom is obsessed with doodles too. But prior to that had a purebred Bernese mountain dog. They’re great dogs, but have largely been bred into tragically short lifespans. Her’s died at 4 or 5 years old and averages at the time were like 6-8 years. So there’s the thought/hope that mixing with a broader gene pool available in the poodles will help them live longer.

They are also supposed to shed less is a reason I’ve been given a lot, but they need grooming all the time so I think it’s bullshit. They are cute, but it’s mostly a bunch of online groups that are driving the trend.

But patents for genetic beans, or drugs that the government or public institutions that we the public fucking pay for should be allowed.

Images of smoking Eastern European jalopy intensifies.

They got the idea right, but it was a shrieking Orange ball of rage.

Unless it’s tin whiskers from the early lead free solder…

I fear that shit way more than I was ever worried about y2k bugs.

The pictures of stacks of failed clutches in r/justrolledintotheshop were enough to convince me.

Ford had a habit of inventing new systems, but slapping them on the first couple model years of any vehicle before they seem ready.

My dad had a first-gen Explorer Sport Trac with many notorious problems. My favorite was that both inside back door handles broke off it was like being locked in a police car back there.

I wonder how much more money they make from banner ads than pen sales?
