I know my colleagues and former colleagues, and have reason to be confident it didn’t.

I think it’s fine for people to give the most cursory explanation here, just enough to help someone understand what’s funny. There are plenty of other sites where one can learn about Rust’s borrow checker in more detail, and this is a humor community.

I wouldn’t expect anyone to know about it unless they had taken an interest in Rust. It’s pretty unusual.

legacy code at least used to make sense at some point in the past.

That assumption doesn’t hold where I work.

Yes, I have always enjoyed trying to create elegant architecture and code, more than I get satisfaction from the end result. I’ve always found it frustrating how many colleagues were prepared to throw together any old junk as long as the right thing came out in the end. On the positive side, maybe the AI does raise the quality of what some of them contribute.

Maybe they edited README.md by hand.

This is the new normal, it seems. My developer colleagues are bragging about how long it has been since they wrote a line of code.

One of these two men is a waste of space, and it ain’t Mamdani.

US politicians can’t be seen to be associating with the truth.

Reticulum is more versatile.

Seems more likely RFK Jr. would go this way.

We built the library. Someone else started charging admission.

Capitalism working as intended.

For information about fingerprinting techniques there’s this site:

It has been around for a few years so there are almost certainly other techniques it doesn’t mention.

Good stuff, but you seem have an editing mistake: most of the article is repeated after the conclusion.

For the AUR I think anything goes.

The article is worth reading. It describes what kind of credit scoring system does exist in China, and what is sensationalized Western propaganda.

Projection is what they do best.

I think of it as being made by one of few really trustworthy organizations in tech.

For some reason all I see is a picture, not the article. Here’s the link in case anyone else has the same problem:
