I’ll take the low energy and working brain over high energy dementia

It’s not a template, they’re going through lines in The Room.

Why would the year, the least important, need to be first?

For proper ordering for one. ISO8601 is objectively the best way to label anything that might need to be ordered based on time. This forces data points to line up properly in chronological order, and makes it easy to time slice as needed.

And why are the pieces of the pyramid made so the ISO standard is the only one that looks right?

Because it’s the only one that goes from largest value to smallest. It’s first because you start from the largest as the base (year) and work down through size to seconds.

ss:mm:hh:DD:MM:YYYY would also order the numbers based on length, but would look terrible if represented like that

Agreed. And any sort of data analysis would be so much harder

You need to remember that the technical people may not have an issue with it, but the bean counters tend to be more stuffy and upright about shit. And a lot of clients are especially up tight in my experience. Something about paying you money and expecting standard business responses.

I wouldn’t give a shit if I saw that, but I absolutely would not send that up the chain if a junior sent me that screenshot (or I’d crop it down to the most useful info. Last thing I want to do is listen to some asshole c-level complain at me for 20 minutes about professionalism.

The zodiac killer

Interesting. Guessing that probably means I need to find a new trick when I go to work on newer servers. Damned microsoft…

It’s a good idea, but it will only ever be that with the way the US works. Getting 2/3 of Congress and the states to agree on anything is borderline impossible.

Try

Control printers

Much easier

The settings app is the new control panel. There’s just also the legacy control panel that they’ve been trying to remove for years. It’s such a shit show that I’ve memorized the run string for the applets I have to use frequently, because it’s a fucking nightmare trying to remember where they moved this in which version of the os.

What a shit take.

Yes, people should also be upset about Biden sending bombs to Israel, but that’s been going on for years and, unfortunately, is pretty much well worn ground.

But muskmelon throwing a fucking Nazi salute is absolutely worth all of this attention, because it shows how little they care to hide it and how open they’re going to be about this shit.

He got them dead eyes, like a dolls eyes…

“In a hyper-partisan environment, even unintentional errors like this can escalate into accusations of partisanship,” he said.

“If these issues are not resolved quickly they risk fuelling conspiracy theories and damaging Meta’s reputation.”

While users who type “#Democrat” or “#Democrats” see no results, the hashtag “Republican” returns 3.3 million posts on the social media platform.

Yeah, no. There are no ‘accusations of partisanship’, there’s straight up blatant partisanship and overt attempts at shaping the narrative and suppressing speech that Der Furher won’t like. There’s no speed short of not implementing it in the first place that would prevent conspiracies from propagating, especially with how hard Fuckerberg is dickriding trump.

I deleted my Facebook account over a decade ago for good reason, and I’m hopeful that people will (but realistic that they won’t) get off of there. That shit hole needs to burn.

Don’t trust your eyes, only what the party tells you

I thought liberty died when I was told it was pointless to vote, then people didn’t vote and then the Nazis won.

Funny how the malicious people tell me the same thing as people who claim to be on my side.

In this case, they are. The AIPAC Defense League is dickriding Leon Skum because he’s in tight with the new furher, and both of them are cool with israel leveling Palestine.

These are one side of the same coin.

Pretty sure their ‘fair treatment’ involves giving them a free (metaphorical) pine box.

they said “This is definitely an error and we will fix it fast”

I’m pretty sure that’s literally what they always say.

Like, has a mainstream brainwashing platform ever admitted to making the change and owning up to it? As far as I can remember, these features keep accidentally getting thought up, coded and released into the production product.

I’m at the point where there is no benefit of the doubt, especially with malicious actors like Twitter and Facebook. If there isn’t proof they didn’t intend to release it (and you can’t exactly prove a negative), it was on purpose.
