For me, a C# developer by trade, this is easily solved with a one command C# call. It’s possible you already have dotnet 6 or 8 on your distro as there are many C# Linux apps now.

It’s Teams, now.

I use the ppa because the snap version does not let me use the keypass XC Plug-In or my VPN plug in.

O.o

That would cost business owners money that could be used for padding their wallets. Can’t do that.

You are right, i misread your text. I haven’t tried sharing.

I’m using Wayland with Gnome and have no problem with screen capture.

In my case, KeePass and ExpressVPN could not function. For KeepassXC, this was the reason:

It is impossible to support native messaging when a browser is running as a sandboxed snap. This is a limitation in snapd not keepassxc.

It appears they found some work-around with an extra script after installation as of 2 years ago. Basically, snaps are sandboxed, which is a feature. That wreaks havoc with certain tools, though. ExpressVPN’s browser plugin was having similar problems, and on Linux, that’s you’re only GUI interface for ExpressVPN.

I just checked, and I was updated to the Snap version, and I had no problems with either extension, so they did solve the problems. Therefore, I’m not outraged. Ubuntu has the right to standardize their deployments on a system that makes their work easier or less chaotic - as long as it does not screw over their customers.

Edit: i was mistaken. I still use the Mozilla PPA, so the problems migjt remain.

I can agree with that only if they solved the problems with extensions and a few other features that were not working with the snap version. If they did not, then they are assholes.

I use keepass to fill login forms, and that does not work with the snap version.

They share responsibility in reality, but they will get promotions and bonuses while you will get fired.

I was thinking it is parody. The whole thing is management consultant speak. But honestly, I can’t tell any more. So much that would have been obvious parody in the 80s and 90s, are in fact serious today. Regardless, software architecture is really not that different from hard engineering. There are designs that work, and designs that don’t, business culture be damned.

This comes across as more of “fuck you, build it the way we feel it should be built” even though they have no fucking clue of the difference between a singleton and strategy, or SOLID and DRY. It is like a senator telling a Pratt and Whitney engineer the F-35 must be able to take a 90 degree turn at mach 3. Totally fucking ludicrous!

Thanks, man (or woman hard to tell from text).

Currently, I am not living this hell. But I gotta tell you, you are supporting a pipe dream.

Literally, if I cannot describe a direct benefit to the so-called end user it won’t even be looked at. The development and engineering team are unimportant. The first part I was told directly, the second part was implicit.

Most corporate environments use scrum or agile as ceremony - decorations to make everybody think they’re doing something better than what they’re really doing. Then when it fails, they can go back to what they were really doing and claim agile was just a fad.

I earned certification in the early days. “Scrum Master” was supposed to be a team member who took on the role of interacting with external stakeholders, and help the team organize the work.

The scrum master protects the team from interruptions and un-scheduled work and facilitates planning meetings.

More recent iterations minimized the Scrum Master as a first class role. Scrum Manager sounds like a new role the process.

I did a search, came up with this gem.

All the other search results did not have “scrum manager”, and the end of the video indicates this is not an official role in Scrum, but a term used for managers who are all in on the values of the scrum process.

There are many ways to install software on linux. Usually the distribution package manager will install things flawlessly with no extra work.

FlatPack, AppImage and Snap are all becoming common now. Most the time if you find yourself downloading a package from website, you might find it already on an app store.

Ubuntu’s/Gnome’s store app can look up ubuntu’s snap and traditional repository, and public flatpack.

When you’re setting up more advanced system tools, you will always have to tweak something. You’re taking on a system administrator role in your own organization.

And one that requires several people to give up a weekend, too.

It’s interesting how people have different interpretations of mwmes. You took it as a reflection of a perfectly normal good thing, while I took it as a perfectly normal bad thing.

Iny experience, “put it on the backlog (and never look at it again)” is the response to someone raising a serious architectural problem.

I’m a Senior developer, and I’m still playing the part of the Junior in this meme.

I hate it when people insist on leaving their trash lying around where I work.

I’m aware. I considered using it when I upgraded the hardware. Good to hear it is solid. If that is the consensus, I might switch, eventually.

Systems like DSM from synology have integrity scrubbing to fight bit rot. Run it once a quarter on a 4 drive, and you’re protected. Plus, you should be backing up your data, even with RAID.

BTRFS, last I read, had lots of complexity and weird problems. Hopefully, it has improved since then (about 3 years ago).
