Where are you crossing? Around here the population on both sides of the border are pretty indistinguishable, except for accent.

Game development is a very specific use case, and NOT what most people think of when talking about devs vs ops.

I’m talking enterprise software and SaaS companies, which would be a MUCH larger part of the tech industry then games.

There are a large number of devs who think public cloud as infrastructure is ALWAYS the right choice for cost and availability for example… Which in my experience is actually backwards, because legacy software and bad developers fail to understand the limitations of this platforms, that it’s untrustworthy by design, and outages insue.

In these scenarios understanding how the code interacts with actual hardware (network, server and storage or their IaaS counterparts) is like black magic to most devs… They don’t get why their designs are going to fall over and sink into the swamp because of their nievete. It works fine on their laptop, but when you deploy to prod and let customer traffic in it becomes a smoking hole.

“IT people” here, operations guy who keeps the lights on for that software.

It’s been my experience developers have no idea how the hardware works, but STRONGLY believe they know more then me.

Devops is also usually more dev than ops, and it shows in the availability numbers.

I mean, yes and no. There’s biology that drives human behavior, as much as we want to pretend otherwise and physics are responsible for scarcity.

Given our biological programming and scarcity of resources there isn’t an economic system that can “be fair and equal” at any scale beyond hunter gatherer tribes.

Why would we move on from his admitting to what we all know, his goal is the end of our Republic.

What the hell are you talking about, we should NOT move on, that’s been the problem all along.

Political extremists, such as yourself, are exhausting.

It’s like talking to a religious fanatic, there’s no reasoning with someone who’s made a decision based on emotion instead of logic.

So why dont we have tarrifs on the ones that are produced in Mexico too?

Mexico is not China.

It is in our best interest to have a stable and economically improving neighbor on our southern border.

Your all or nothing / black or white view of the world is extremely childish & naive. Simple solutions to complex problems are just how politicians manipulate those who don’t want to think to hard. Stop pretending that global trade policy is a simple solution arena & try thinking a little harder.

They had these in Canada too?

It’s almost like, in such a huge country, there exist people with different tastes.

I, an American, went to India once. The hotel restaurant had a breakfast buffet. On one side was a glorious Indian spread. The other was some nauseating English breakfast spread, with like baked beans (that’s for summer BBQs not breakfast!).

Anyway me and my buddy head straight to the good side, when the hotel staff woman came running over to warn us that it was too spicy. She gently walked us to the gross English food. We confirmed with her, numerous times, that the Indian food was very spicy. We then dug in on the eatible food (the Indian side) and made a friend with the hotel staff lady.

It was somewhat spicy, but amazing.

Some Americans think black pepper is too spicy, some eat ghost peppers as a light snack, I am in between.

Red hat, 25 years ago learned to recompile the kernel to make my sound card/modem work.

Because it’s shit.

If I apt install an app, I expect it NOT to be a snap. I want it to use shared libraries, not bring its own along. They hide from you that they are installing the snap not deb package.

Then you run into all sorts of permissions issues accessing the filesystem from the snap app… Because snap is rather broken in this regard.

Functionally snap is a worse solution then deb, but I guess it’s easier on the developer/maintainer as you don’t get lost in shared dependincy hell.

I feel snaps should be an option if you need cutting edge version of a software that can’t use your shared libs, but never the default install method.

I would say isreal has a right to defend itself, but not if they keep stealing land and oppressing the people who attack them.

If you want to defend yourself, first, you have to stop attacking the people who you claim to be defending against.

Hamnas is human garbage, but one can not separate the creation of Israel from the ghettoizing of the Palestinian people.

Nobody deserves terrorist attacks, but this didn’t come out of the blue.

Isreal needs to own up to it’s complicity in the violence before they try to claim to be the sole victims of it.

Look, the reality is that disease did kill the majority of natives.

The genocide after that is not made any less horrible by that reality, but it was made POSSIBLE because of it.

If European settlers had to deal with the full original population, things would have been VERY different.

You know Plex is trying to become a streaming platform, right? Just shoving that add supported streaming into you face all the time.

From someone who’s spent around 20 years with xbmc/Kodi. Even better, it’s free.

Come on man, Grease in 2023 would be set in 2003.

No snapchat, more like SMS, AIM & MSN.
