There is no spoon.

Anyway, what does this have to do with technology?

Samsung is one of the largest tech companies in the world. I don’t think that’s debatable.

My tip for anyone struggling with getting started with linux, set up a log function so you can easily log any relevant changes you make, and have it accessible from somewhere else (like a shared partition or external drive for example). This way you know what you have done and can use that to fix whatever you fuck up. Also, make a knowledge base with the sources you find useful. I have a small kb in UpNote now so I can look up how some things were done instead of having to search and find the right guides over and over.

This is the best advice for anyone who wants to learn how to utilize the command line. I used to write tremendous documentation for myself, as though I was writing a blog post. Now, I just throw a one line description of the change and hope I remember enough about it for it to make sense. But writing the longer info was really important for me internalizing things in the very beginning.

Glad you’re having fun!

Edit: Oh, and I suggest you look for guides on setting up rsync to work like Time Machine.

In a blogpost called, “AI crawlers need to be more respectful”, they claim that blocking all AI crawlers immediately decreased their traffic by 75%, going from 800GB/day to 200GB/day. This made the project save up around $1500 a month.

“AI” companies are a plague on humanity. From now on, I’m mentally designating them as terrorists.

The Rust war is a travesty for OSS.

I love how there’s that one weirdo downvoting all these replies against the multitude of people who find this distasteful. You know who you are, you twisted little wretch.

I like SublimeText for everything unless a quick edit at the CLI with Vim.

Imagine needing to understand a thing to build something. /s

Try Kagi.

Sam Altman is a lying hype-man. He deserves to see his company fail.

Then change it on any day of the week other than Monday morning or Friday evening.

Best answer. We can sell it!

Friday upgrade: A handful of people call with problems on Monday morning.

Monday upgrade: Everyone is angry that they can’t meet deadlines (the install started when they turned on their computers).

I should have mentioned that I’m thinking of two industries with hard deadlines.

Hello fellow basher.

This made me chortle. I remember when I first joined a dev team asking someone how many of something their section should be able to store:

I don’t know, I’d have to look at the code.

It was an eye opening moment. Very few people can keep everything in their head. I’ve met a couple. They were rockstars who were truly exceptional.

I recognize this. I watched a video of this shitbag pretending to be mentally unwell for the cameras after he shot some people.

- refuses to purchase tools that would make job easier

- plans huge upgrade of client devices first thing Monday morning rather than Friday evening

- licenses one of the least effective security tools to save money

- forces an over-reliance on Google apps despite Drive having shit search capabilities

- makes you get A+ certified even though you’ve been in the industry for many years before allowing pursuit of higher certs

- says “happy Monday” every week as if that isn’t soul-draining

- thinks we have a great culture because we declare “beer o’clock” on a Friday every few months and end early

- talks loudly in an open office when he take phone calls

- plays shitty music when he gets control of the stereo hooked to an old computer

- mandates back to office as the pan is winding down and then let’s all of management not come to the office on the first day back

- can’t understand why this angered workers

I love projects like this. It’s way harder to do in Bash, but that’s what makes it interesting. The unnecessary effort to do it right shows real skill.
