Yeah, this is probably going to sound like a truism, but to avoid shitty Scrum, you need to resist management trying to alter the processes, but you should absolutely tweak the processes to account for the needs of the devs.

Basically, yet another reporting meeting does not help deliver the software faster. But more (or less) meetings for devs to sync what they’re working on, that can help, depending on your team’s specific needs.

Puh, schwierig. Rund sollte erstmal besser sein als rechteckig, weil mehr Fläche pro Umfang. Aber bei den Herzen fehlen ja so Ecken am Rand, was dann evtl. sinnlos beheizte Fläche ist…

Global push-to-talk is going to be wild for meetings. In the gazillion years when my work laptop finally ships an up-to-date version of Plasma, that is. Still on 5.27. 🫠

I mean, that’s kinda what makes storms scary…

Ich dachte zuerst, du zählst Serien mit Piratenbezug auf.

Dann dachte ich, moment mal, “Black Flag” und “Skull And Bones”, das sind doch Spiele mit Piratenbezug.

Aber was ist “ZWJ” denn für ein Spiel? Zero-Width Joiner höhö…?

Moment mal, es geht ja tatsächlich um Emojis. 🙆🏾

Großartige Wortkreationen… 🙃

Yeah, it reads like they wanted to make that reality show and then just slapped a random franchise on it for PR reasons.

Hmm, as someone with 0 years of cat experience, I interpreted that arm movement as her just stretching, because she enjoys the pets…

At its core, SystemD coordinates and launches all the services in your operating system. So, it is essential for the boot process, but also does scheduling, meaning you could run a backup script every night with it, for example.

That’s the simple answer. But in truth, SystemD is often criticized for doing too much, so it’s hard to describe what it really does. For example, you can also manage network interfaces via SystemD.

Kind of the goal of SystemD is to provide common plumbing which works the same across distros, so that when you configure your services or network interfaces etc. on Ubuntu, it works the same as on openSUSE or Arch or whatever.

Yeah, window cleaner or alcohol in general has the advantage that it dissipates, making it much less likely for it to get into the electronics and shortcircuit something.

Kann dir jetzt nicht die genaue Zahl erklären, aber viele Emojis setzen sich aus mehreren Zeichen zusammen. Der 👩🏻-Emoji setzt sich zum Beispiel vermutlich so irgendwie zusammen: 🧑♀️🏻

Zwischen den Einzelemojis müssen nochmal weitere Zeichen sein, damit sowas kombiniert werden kann, sogenannte “Zero-Width Joiner”: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-width_joiner

Also je nach Zählweise könnte das 👩🏻-Emoji eben 1 Zeichen oder 3 Zeichen oder 5 Zeichen sein.

Und dabei lasse ich jetzt noch außen vor, dass manche Programmiersprachen die Bytes zählen, um die vermeintliche Anzahl der Zeichen zu bestimmen, was dann nochmal deutlich mehr sind.

Bin mir nicht sicher, ob ich deine Beschreibung richtig verstanden habe, aber i.d.R. ist es so, dass Mathematik zwar schon an traditionelle Rechenlogik übergeben wird, aber das Parametrieren der Logik muss immernoch von der Autovervollständigungsmaschine generiert werden.

Also irgendwo beschreibt man eben, dass wenn Addition gemacht werden soll, dann die add.py aufrufen mit einem JSON im Format:

{
    "first_value": 123,
    "second_value": 456
}

Aber wenn es eben “second_value” mit dem falschen Wert autovervollständigt, dann kommt die falsche Mathematik dabei raus.

Gut, und was eben auch passieren kann, ist dass die Anweisung, das Skript zu verwenden, dann doch gelegentlich nicht umsetzt wird. Also dass es dann doch auf eigene Faust versucht “1 + 1 =” zu autovervollständigen.
Und wenn dann irgendwas im Kontext herumgeistert, so dass es die wahrscheinlichste Autovervollständigung von dem Fall bezieht, wo mal “5 + 1 + 1 = 7” stand, dann kommt eben auch das Falsche heraus.

It’s not yet in its enshittification phase, so right now it seems like a good deal. But before you know it, blog posts there will be blocked by all kinds of overlays and whatnot, like they are on Medium these days.

Gotta love Linux newbies talking about their first experiences and they’ve already tried 3 distros that I have barely on my radar. A few months in, I hardly knew what SystemD was and this guy’s already on a distro that explicitly removes it.

If you prepare an installation USB stick, so-called “Live-USB”, and select in the BIOS that it should boot from that, then you can test-drive Linux before you install it.

There is more details involved, like you may need to turn off Secure Boot in the BIOS, but yeah, point is, you don’t have to commit to Linux to try it.

Yeah, my current software project at work was basically half a year of feature development and since then, we’ve purely tried to get it into the real world, which meant evaluating use-cases to see where it falls flat and what needs stabilizing, as well as figuring out people’s needs and how our software can assist with that, then setting up a demo and hoping they find money somewhere…

I actually reinstalled it myself after writing that comment. 😅

I only really started to fully appreciate it, when I learned that drifting gives you a boost. So, if you’re going around curves, you pretty much always want to drift, which then kicks your speed up once you stop drifting. Maintaining a higher speed than your car normally goes, is vital for beating the harder difficulties.

Spannend, dass im Deutschen das Wort “Eichel” auch mit “Ei” beginnt.

Sieht lecker aus, bis auf die Pizza.

My problem was that “Albert Heijn” is a dude’s name. It does not exactly scream “we’re talking about a real physical building”.

For all I knew, the impossible problem we’re solving could’ve been on a mathematical plane, named after mathematician Albert Heijn. “Sweeping” just as well can be used in an abstract sense.

Obviously, I did think of physically sweeping a physical floor first and foremost, but especially with the rest of the blog post being so entirely abstract, I had doubts on that for far too long, which did not make it easier to understand.
