Maybe it’s not changed then because I was using it in the early 2000s. 😀

We used to use Redmine and it was a fantastic piece of software.

I’m not sure that’s the fault of XML though.

It’s more the fault of the implementation and documentation.

We have a WCF service with an odd configuration and nobody has been able to integrate with it that didn’t use Microsoft tools. It’s definitely not XML’s fault.

(That service has been replaced with a REST API now)

It seems that they intend Microsoft Loop to be the collaborative notes app now.

It’s replaced OneNote as the meeting notes app and it has more flexible access control.

Currently they also only have one version as it’s a progressive web app (that might change with time though).

I guess that that’s all that matters.

Did it take time to get used to or did it work straight away?

Is it saying that the PHP developers are kids and the C++ developer is acting as their parent?

I’m not sure.

If you want to fork the repo then you make a commit to the original repo giving yourself rights then you make the fork and you’re golden.

I don’t understand why people think that it’s acceptable.

As developers, we’ve had it drummed into us from day one that variable names are important and shouldn’t be one or two letters.

Yet developers deliberately alias an easy to read table name such as “customer” into “c” because that’s the first letter of the table. I’m sure that it’s more work to do that with auto completion meaning that you don’t even need to type out “customer”.

I like the scope creep there:

1. Programming language (singular)
2. All programming languages and related knowledge
3. Add in AI, ML and data structures

99 percent invisible did an episode on it recently.

I don’t think that they’ve bombed the West Bank before. Just had mobs nip in and kill people and steal land.

It’s what bad guys in movies say when they hurt or kill someone because the protagonist didn’t do what they wanted. “This is your fault” “This blood is on your hands” “You made me do this”

I don’t think that we are incapable of doing that. What we have done is a balancing act of assisting Ukraine against Russia without going to war with Russia.

If we were to have sent in troops from the start then it would be a completely different picture. I’m not sure that it would be a better picture though.

They want to look at how vaping is being marketed to kids to reduce the number starting to vape but they’re not changing the age restrictions as far as I know.

There’s the shopping popup that tries to find better deals or vouchers for products you’re looking at. It’s easy to turn off though.

Searching the settings for “notification” does show others - a feature called Discover and sidebar apps seem to be able to send notifications but I’ve never seen either.

And if you convince the project manager that it won’t work by telling them all the reasons why they come back a few days or weeks later asking why it won’t work.

Won’t autocomplete fail if you do “cd d” and then try the autocomplete?

Or is that what you mean by “decent” auto-completion?

I think that the argument is that if an employer can afford to pay a worker $30,000 per year and the unemployment tax is $3,000 per year then the employee gets $27,000 per year. So the employee effectively paid that tax, not the employer, even though the employer is the one who sent the money and the employer is the one who is liable for the money.

They just pass the burden onto the employee. They have to because that’s just how it works. Just like the customers pay for a restaurant’s rent in the form of an increase in prices to cover the cost.

If the ads come to Prime, then I might cancel that. It’s already our least watched service and it’s been getting a free pass because of the next day delivery.

I don’t want to watch ads, I don’t want to pay an extra £30 per year to not see ads and I don’t need next day delivery often enough to keep it for that.

And remove the evidence that the door was ever open even though everyone knows that the door was open, the evidence existed and where the evidence was kept.
