<p>Fun fact: In french, Github, is pronounced « Guy Teube », where « Teube » is the backslang of « Bite », which can be literally translated by “Dick”.<p>So to give an example, is as if English speaking peoples would use a service named “Davedick”.</p>

<p>Many executives consider managing peoples is harder than managing machines, and that having many people working together have a better value than a single person.<p>As such, many want a raise, but no-one want to manage peoples and have responsibilities that involve human factor (state otherwise, it is easier to be sure about the result of your own work than the work of your whole team). That’s the reason why it is easier to ask for a raise as a manager than a single coder.</p>

<p>I’ve never been a fan on ThinkPad looks, until I get a second hand one, in 2014. It had 4GB or RAM and starts to have hard time with browsing, so few month ago, I bought 16GB for 20€. I’m almost sure It could live for 5 or 10 years.<p>My only complain is Ctrl cap sensor having some inconsistencies, I have to push strong on it.<p>For the rest I consider ThinkPad as the way to go for second hand.</p>

<p>One of my most educational personal project has been to update a ten y/o mupen64plus OpenGL plugin (Rice) to OpenGLES for RPi.<p>So much code that looks weird that I had dig in a lot and finally understood why this tiny piece of non-sense code is actually what make the whole system working, and think about how smart the previous dev was and how dumb I would have solve the problem myself.</p>

<p>> Friends have told me that they’re relieved I seem “like myself” even after everything that’s happened. I don’t understand how that’s possible when I frequently don’t feel like I have a self to be. Jake and I became so entangled in these last few years that it still seems like many of my thoughts belong to both of us.<p>I can only recommend to read « Éloge de l'amour » from Alain Badiou (and Nicolas Truong). It defends love as a conscientious and willing alterity of yourself, but a non-controlled alterity, an alterity puts in the hands of another.<p>That’s why, I think, people does not help that much someone that lost a love saying him/her will be more focused on them-self. Because the lost was absolute part of them-self, and not something they actually suffer from.</p>

<p>All of this is weird. Leaving a SSL CA open to anyone ~~the day official servers are close~~.<p>EDIT: Bug exists since 1 march 2021.<p>At first, it seems nice. But its impossible that Nintendo being <i>nice</i> in anyway, and even less more by <i>adding</i> a bug. This, and Pretendo that seems to expect the bug before the release.<p>I find this really suspicious.</p>

<p>Wanted to say the same.

<p>> internal tools are both very advanced and also fragile foot guns if you try to do anything that isn’t exactly down the golden path.<p>HT: That’s also an important point explained when we talk about internal VS commercial (or build VS buy) in the animation/VFX industry.<p>Internal softwares does less than 5% (or less) of commercial products, but they are doing it in a straight, fab compatibility way. No effort is made in making the tool working with your fab, the tool is shaped for the fab from scratch. That’s the value of internal tools. Converting those is viable product is very risky.</p>
