Teeth are absolutely not cosmetic. Infection of a tooth can lead to dangerous consequences up to sepsis. Your parents didn’t have teeth because they had them removed by a dentist to avoid abscesses.

Guys, please don’t underestimate dental health

They are often on purpose, as political decision. So that it is easier to push for privatization

In the next issue of “non interesting tech news”,

Rumors say Cisco is to release next webex version in 2024.

Prepare yourself for the non hype

Steam deck is the best option for cost/value

I am a complete amateur, and I do better jobs

Spaghetti is 1 type of long noodles. You have spaghetti, tagliatelle, bucatini, linguine, vermicelli…

I know, I shouldn’t play payday 2… Friends forgive me!

Wow!

What about the flaming and jelly windows? That was cool stuff

Powershell one liners are uglier than the worst winner of Obfuscated Perl Contest. Super cringe…

For research labs, dell workstations used to be great. Put debian on it and you could forget about problems. I don't know if it is the case anymore.

The selling point of xps is that they are light. Many of us just need light laptops nowadays, as almost any hardware is more than capable of any task with the exception of gaming. But I have never gamed on laptops

Xps developer edition has been a thing since almost a decade. I bought a xps13 with ubuntu in Europe. I replaced it as soon as it arrived though. The built in OS was not "standard".

I still use it almost daily. Battery has gone, but everything else works

Light ThinkPads are not cheap either

Main issue of mine was the wifi card. Awful. Everything else very nice.

No, its taste isn't something that Italians would appreciate. It tastes like a cheap mix of a cheap German frankfurter and cheap calabrese 'nduja. It's almost impossible to find it in Italy.

I have never seen it in my life in Italy

Thanks, so I don't have to be that "actually" guy mentioning that 99% of Italians have never seen pepperonis in their life. You saved me

Ahahah, emacs is immortal

It borrowed the concept from old editor such emacs. It is a modern emacs. A single editor to do literally everything via plugins. The idea is that one needs to learn a single editor to master everything.

It is very powerful for people who do multiple things. It's not worthy if the whole job is to simply writing java or c#. In that case a dedicated ide is better

VSCode is a modern emacs. Similar concept, a single editor to do everything via extensions. That's the selling point. "young people" never had the chance to work with a similar concept, this is why they found it so revolutionary (despite being a concept from the 70s).

I use it because I am forced to use a windows laptop at work, and emacs on windows is a painful experience

Not even a pure mckinsey type of company value kpis over stakeholders' feedbacks. If a company is purely kpi driven, it is a bad company, as kpi cannot catch everything, but have limited and specific scope. Your managers should go back to their MBAs, and revise their stakeholder management skills. If a manager get a feedback that one of their team members is jeopardizing a project and the relationship with clients due to taking responsibilities and tasks for which they have no competency, it is extremely bad. In this case is even proved by the fact that the company must spend resources lowering the clients expectations. Managers should absolutely act. If this doesn't happen, the managerial side of your company is pretty broken
