It is, but it’s also real shit. Basically shows how the structure of the systems that people have to use every day, that their bosses buy for them because most workplaces aren’t democracies, is determined by the incentives that devs have in their workplace. The latest Business Fad like agile scrum vs waterfall, or whatever is cool now, and also how bonus structures work + how the company culture works, all directly or indirectly affect the way software works. That’s why studying sociology and anthropology is important, because then we can design incentive structures that get people making good software that serves humanity. I don’t know if such a thing is possible under capitalism with a profit motive. I think in a postcapitalist world we could have honor and other social rewards go to the person whose software helps people the most. We are a long way off from that.

there’s no way he’s not trolling and it’s hilarious that everyone is falling for it

I actually liked Aero, but my machine could not handle it when vista came out, also I had done a similar theme on GNOME anyway

This is basically what “slopsquatting” relies on https://www.infosecurity-magazine.com/news/ai-hallucinations-slopsquatting/

I used to think this kind of combo was more rare but my therapist who is also a lawyer tells me that this is more common than I knew

Basically there is a stereotype that a lot of trans girls are programmers, and thigh high socks are a stereotype of trans girls along with blahaj ownership as well. There are a lot of chasers on 4chan and some trans folks as well. Therefore some anon shopped a picture of an Amazon listing to say “programming socks” to poke fun at the two stereotypes. People embraced it so much that the socks started showing up on Amazon when you search “programming socks”. As for a specific programming language, I have seen Rust associated with trans women.

I for one don’t think estrogen has made me better at coding at all. I tried to do Rustlings before and didn’t have time to follow through with it, but maybe I should give it another go.

it’s true, lesbian confirmed

battletoads?

it would be amusing to bring back the fail whale

first German meme I can understand. Love a good 9/11 joke. Never been on AIDA but have drank plenty of alk. cheers 🥂

nobody is forcing you to use the far superior operating system. it’s funny because I’m pretty sure most Android developers use Macs, as do many developers, but everyone who likes to use FOSS and have control of their device uses an AOSP based OS on their device.

If you don’t want to be called racist misogynist rape apologists don’t be racist, misogynist, or apologize for rape. Pretty simple. Gamers are not actually an oppressed identity my guy. Nobody is out to get you.

isn’t it “up yours, children?”

“makes me want to run through a wall” is an interesting way to say you are turgid

the only reason anyone has bought a cybertruck for a business is because incentives for heavy vehicles make it possible to almost entirely write them off on taxes

don’t other truck manufacturers that actually know how to build a truck also make electrified models?

Agreed, in my limited experience with both CSS is like the conceptual opposite of assembly. When I do web design I tell it what I want to look like but can’t see how it’s getting there because that’s done for me. Assembly is the lowest level of abstraction we’ve got and it took me ages to write a little program for class that returns an argument in it (Jasmin VM) and then get GCC to compile it.

I would say that CSS is like doing an incantation that magically makes the site look good if you do it right, and assembly is like building something by hand.
