Copilot is shit

Yes and no. I find its terrible at solving more complex problems but its great at writing out tests for a function/view that covers every flow. My team went from having like 40% (shit) coverage to every PR having every case tested (inb4 they’re not good tests, they are good)

With that being said, fuck CEOs and fuck AI. At least you could (mostly) escape the blockchain hype

I went to Vegas (from Canada) in November for a company convention sort of thing right after Trump got in and felt off about it then but like actual fuck I’d go now. My company is actually struggling to find somewhere to go next year since, while they’re a US based remote-first company, a LOT of their employees are outside of the United States.

Edit: It’s funny, I’ve noticed they’ve really seemed to prioritise hiring Canadian developers in the last few years. I’ve always wondered if it’s because they feel they can pay us less

Yeah well they can go fuck themselves

I guess it’s mostly for their cell services to avoid SIM jacking and stuff. But I agree

I’m the opposite of both of you. The build quality is good and the OS is good. I love having a familiat UNIX system while also having a polished desktop environment that supports 4k scaling very well (though the polish has been lacking a lot lately)

The issue for me is the insane price of their computers and the fact that you can’t (officially) install MacOS on your own hardware. I have a Linux desktop and a MBP but I’d run MacOS on both if it was officially supported

Even ISPs do this where I am. You don’t have to utter anything specifically but if they detect your voice being drastically different from what they have on file, they’ll lock you out before you even talk to a real person. Not sure how I feel about it tbh

Not downplaying progress but damn it’s messed up that they were ever paid considering how cheap phone plans are. Social isolation is not supposed to be part of the “rehabilitation” process. Was ready to shit on the US here (as is our favourite pasttime) but apparently Canada’s doing this shit too…

I actually completely forgot it was a thing. I haven’t heard anything about it either since it was announced

They’re super useful when running Proxmox. You can create an LXC container and have it booted to a shell in under a minute

Confluence, the place where you do a bunch of documentation and then later forget you wrote it or can’t find it anymore and have to rewrite it all in a separate Confluence folder only to repeat it all later?

My team at work has several different team docs folders ranging from severely outdated to new but soon to be outdated

Hahaha I didn’t know that but that is funny. Admittedly I’m not too big into hockey so I’ve got no gauge on how popular (edit: or unpopular 😅) the Sens are

I love Anubis just because the dev is from my city that’s never talked about (Ottawa)

Have you seen who’s running your health department

Fucking James 😤

Reached for comment, Trump’s communications director, Steven Cheung, said, “Michael Wolff is a lying sack of shit and has been proven to be a fraud. He routinely fabricates stories originating from his sick and warped imagination, only possible because he has a severe and debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted his peanut-sized brain.”

Very cordial and presidential

It makes me want to rip my hair out that we’re seeing nazism repeat itself but full-on stupid mode.

Wait what the fuck? It’s officially named Alligator Alcatraz? I thought it was just an edgy nickname

The excuse I’ve heard is “well, it’s fine to visit blue states”. Most of the people I know (rightly) won’t visit the US anymore but that’s what I’ve heard from people who would

What a looong wolf
