Dreams where ur murdered in my ass

Unless your threat modelling includes nation-states

At which point you should have a handful of extra layers

This is anecdotal

Not just anecdotal. The default SSH port gets hit by ridiculous numbers of bots because a lot of people don’t bother to change it. This will be true no matter what machine you’re on. Hell, your desktop at home has probably been scanned quite a few times even if all you do is watch porn on it

What do I care what language the library is written in as long as it works for what I need it do?

Doesn’t matter what it implies. The entire purpose of programming is to make it so a human doesn’t have to go do something manually.

not x tells me I need to go manually check what type x is in Python.

len(x) == 0 tells me that it’s being type-checked automatically

Honestly most people use Python because it has fantastic libraries. They optimize it because the language is middling, but the libraries are gorgeous

ETA: This might double post because my Internet sucks right now, will fix when I have a chance

It is, but that’s not the viewpoint they used in the meme

Not OP, but I’ll give my two cents anyway (I like the sound of my own voice… Or I guess the look of my own text in this case)

Why would I want your post deleted

You came off a bit adversarial in the first comment. I would believe you meant to come off as curious, but unfortunately text doesn’t translate tone well.

Why would you do it if I wanted you to

Human decency. You could also block them, but that’s your perogative.

But yeah please explain how you’re enslaved

The US government does a lot of work to make sure slavery stays legal, they just don’t use that word. Private prisons are the most obvious example of this, but they’re also stripping freedoms and rights from individuals who have never been incarcerated. They make a show every now and then to make it seem like that that’s not what they’re doing, but if you really take a look at the policies that are getting pushed right now and have been pushed in the last few years, you’ll see it.

I can’t remember which state it is, but at least one of them are trying to pseudo-reinstate Jim Crow laws or whatever it’s called when they restrict voting. Married women, older people and the disabled are being intentionally pushed away from polls by making the ID requirements stricter. And that’s one of the tamest examples I’ve seen lately

Do you consider using a meme format a rip off?

If I could get the adsp

Author Domain Signing Practices? Requires internet access by the looks of my quick search, so your race is between your Ethernet/wifi and the boot-up process. The only ways to fix it are to make the computer connect to the Internet faster, which is impossible for many. Most people substitute by adding a delay for getting into user space until after connection is establish

Did you even read the rest of that sentence?

There quite a handful of IoT devices out there that will run Linux too. Many of them, in fact, run BSD by default

We largely see the show from the perspective of Brain. It’s not unbelievable that Pinky, or some of the “stupid” things he says are hallucinations, whether visual or auditory and that Brain attributes his hallucinations to Pinky’s “stupidity” due to the Dunning-Kruger effect.

Obviously, this is a death of the author interpretation but… I think we all died this year anyway so that feels alright

Ya never know you’re in the good ol days till they’re over

I’m just gonna chalk this up to you not understanding my points literally at all and stop having this conversation. You are insufferable to talk to and outright refuse to see my point at all.

A million dollars an hour? Sign me up for one year please

Okay, fine. I’ll do big words with you.

Let’s talk about the difference between Ethics and Morals. Ethics are what you individually follow, it’s your Ethos. Morals are what a society follows.

It may be morally correct to say that “people should be allowed to do as they please” while also ethically correct to say “you shouldn’t disrespect people’s wishes.”

You’re right, that it is moral for someone to imitate art. At least, in our culture. But that’s because most people follow the ethos that they can do and take as they please. I personally hold myself to a higher standard than that, and I hope you can do the same some day.

Edit to add: Fuck the golden rule. Follow the Platinum rule.

What do you make of the use of email in the business world? You’re right that quite a bit of that has turned into instant messaging as well, ie I text my boss instead of sending them mail but it definitely feels like that’s going away a lot slower if not expanding
