It sure does.

Is this implying that a publicly-traded corporation whose software is installed on millions of computers around the world has the same level of agency and responsibility as a preschooler?

I mean, yes, Microsoft bears responsibility for blindly accepting whatever deployment package CrowdStrike gave it and immediately yeeting it out to 100% of customers via Windows Update without any kind of validation or incremental rollout, and should probably be sued for it. That still doesn’t negate the complete and catastrophic failures at every step of the development process on the part of CrowdStrike. It takes a lot of people to fuck up this bad.

It’s honestly incredible that Bing even still exists, much less is still being actively being pushed by M$

Good to see they’re branching out with their business model. Can’t just commit to a single strategy these days. Sometimes it helps to rebase your priorities to avoid creating new issues.

Ok, bad jokes aside, how did it taste?

I don’t think online resources are necessarily a replacement for in-person classroom instruction, and even if they were, it’s not a reason to take the option of home ec classes away from those who want it.

That said, I think it’s at least a good thing that so many good internet resources on cooking exist, and it helps mitigate the problem to some degree. Still, it takes time and energy to seek out those resources, learn from them, and put them into practice. Not easy to do for anyone who has been worked far past the point of burnout and are still just scraping by.

'90s-'00s McDonald’s primarily appealed to kids, as the colorful characters and Happy Meals were a big part of the draw.

'10s-'20s McDonalds has pivoted to marketing towards adults, in part because they had come under fire for marketing greasy, oversalted calorie bombs to children as the US obesity epidemic took off. The other reason is that mid-to-low income adults became a much more lucrative demographic after decades of wage stagnation basically created an entire generation that’s too tired and overworked to cook for themselves but too poor to go out to eat anywhere else.

I also have a Yahoo address. Yahoo is such a pain in the ass at this point, but what am I going to do, go back and change the email address on every single online account I’ve made since I was 11?

They meant they only found out the YMCA organization was real recently, they thought it was just a song at first.

Bugs in tests aren’t necessarily exceptions. You could be incorrectly setting up your function inputs, or just making the wrong assertions.

I don’t really get how “overt racism in a job description” is programmer humor, but alright

Then another message popped up. This time with a console.warn() logging level, so I just couldn’t ignore it.

That’s how you know this one’s fake. Most unrealistic part of the whole story.

It does some funky things with type coercion and comparison which I don’t particularly like, but I generally understand why it does things that way.

A lot of the weird quirks of JS come from the desire to avoid completely blowing up and crashing as much as possible, which makes sense in a web dev context. Forcing weird operations to at least return something can prevent an unhandled error state in a single component from causing an entire page to crash, even if that component ends up malfunctioning as a result.

And WanderingDwarfMiner. Rock and Stone!

I can’t seem to get to it. It doesn’t show when I search the communities for all nodes, and lemmyfi.com itself returns “server error.”
