Yeah, there is a reason I didn’t know the word “aspic”. What an abomination.

Welcome to the wonderful world of reverse proxies!

Opera is such a trailblazer on that front! Clearly I’m not the target audience but I really appreciate them acknowledging all the crazy people put there with hundreds of tabs.

Good news, you can start listening to Kneecap now!

The pure luxury!

The Authority actually tackled that.

Be aware that bytes exist for a start, I reckon.

Man, I can’t wait to try out generative AI to generate config files for mission critical stuff! Imagine paying all of us devops wankers when my idiot boss can just ask Chat GPT to sort all this legacy mess we’re juggling with on the daily!

It literally means “to apply”, funnily.
But of course the majority of Chinese people are not English speakers, so they see “app” but can’t know it’s the same meaning.

I might be biased from speaking with so many Chinese people. Who I can forgive not knowing the origin of the abbreviation. Still pisses me off to no end D:<

What I hate even more, is that the morons who can’t read more than two syllables decided to shorten “application” to “app”, but now I only ever hear people reading that as “ay pee pee”! What was the fucking point?

Oh hey! That’s me for the last two years! Again!

I wish I had some hippocratic style oath I could lean on to not release unsafe, unoptimised, barely tested, possibly maintainable code.
Alas all I have is good, verbose comments and an email here or there expressing my concerns.

To be clear, I ain’t mocking you, I know the feels. Was just referencing the BibleXKCD

Duty calls. Someone is being wrong on the Internet! 🦸

Because they knew exactly what they were doing, obviously.

我看不懂了 你想写什么？

They still have those in the Chinese school I was teaching in. Spotless, modern, but a trough. A really humbling experience, even after years of nightclub toilets in Ireland.

+1 for Atuin. I constantly use it on my machine and SSH-ing on remote machines who don’t have it is an absolute pain.

I’m gonna have to save this thread and check some of those!

Maybe you need to have some sort of objective before you get started, otherwise yeah, you don’t have much to do in the console :) In my case I only use linux for work, so I’m ssh-ing away and running commands to compile this, apply that, show me the logs for this, grep that, etc.
