Very fun series

Read Guts two decades ago

Still haunts me

the way he rages at people on the mailing list?

not really anymore for quite a while.

he will absolutely tell someone that should know better, if they are doing a bad job, but the times of random shitstorms is over for quite a while now

Man, I hope not

The hash question is just something from the top of my head. I normally fit it to the situation.

I absolutely take nervousness into account, as I can relate to it.

The thing is, I need to know if the person can push back in some way. it’s a hard thing to do in interviews, but also the first point for me to check how a person reacts

I’ve been bitten too many times, with dev coworkers who don’t give at least a little resistance when vague or stupid tasks show up. Only to notice hours or days later, when something was done completely the wrong way

When I interview (experienced) devs, I often ask way too generic questions. Something along the lines of “can you explain what a hash is?”, without stating what kind of hash and in what context

The primary goal isn’t really to explain it in detail, but to see if they get confused and ask for clarification. Way too many people just start assuming something, when a task is not defined properly. I need coworkers that push back on bullshit, and not blindly implement whatever runs along their desk, no matter how little sense it makes

If I don’t hear at least one “it depends” during an interview, I don’t have high hopes

They are distributing cards with just the licence key for switch2 games. No way to play once the online store is offline

Honestly, I don’t think so

The main reason being, that they genuinely don’t need it. GTA6 is the most anticipated game this decade, probably only topped by half life 3

They already are in the news every time someone in that company farts, no leak necessary

The short answer: no

The slightly longer answer: also no. Because orbits don’t work that way and space is really really big

There are companies who have plans for cleaning up space debris by grabbing it in various ways, but it’s not really feasible for more than super specific targets in very narrow edge cases

For most of the stuff currently in orbit, there’s not much danger regarding Kessler syndrome, as their orbits decay in a couple years to maybe decades in extreme cases

The bigger problem with current satellite constellations is the big amount of metal spreading into the upper atmosphere when they burn up (not a problem when a couple satellites do it, but problematic when hundreds do), as well as disturbing ground based telescopes

Still saner than imperial

Suddenly I have an idea for my new dnd wizard character

I’m not getting fat, I’m sequestering carbon to save the planet

They are carbon positive. With people losing weight, that fat gets released as CO2 into the air

Damn fat jabs destroying the environment!11

Hey, uhh, why don’t you come to the back with me real quick?

I hate sauerkraut. But kimchi is awesome

It’s pretty nice. But you can’t just use any raw minced pork

Germany has very very strict laws regarding what can be labeled Mett. The whole process from butchering to final product is far stricter compared to regular minced pork

So when you go to a butcher, you can be assured to eat someone safe if you get “Mett”

Oh, Another quill enjoyer

In any case, here’s a reddit post confirming it:

New video is about to drop real soon. 4.5 hour version is already on patron. Final version will probably be even a bit longer

We just need to push the right people
