yeah the amount of time has really been climbing fast an that to me is what is huge. Went from seconds to minutes and I think measuring in hours is not far away.

Seems crazy it took so long.

ooh thats me and databases.

I mean debugging and adding features is coding and debugging im even more likely to look up the things im looking at since I did not write it myself. I honestly rarely use man pages except for linux commands when im at the command line atm. Architecture usually is usually has its own team outside of the lowers.

what have you worked in the same language for twenty years? I don’t have all the libraries memorized and not only do new ones get created but formats change. Unless I have been using something recently I always check.

Not really for writing yet either. Its an assistant. It can write code sections and comments that then have to be reviewed and edited a bit. Rather than a coder having to go back and forth between a search engine as they write they are more likely to be able to stay in the ide.

I use zorin. I can use it right away after I install for most things and over time I have added a few things. I do find the gui software interface annoying (its an ubuntu spin so same as ubuntu) so either download the ubuntu option for things on the web so it is just like installing with windows or I do apt at the command line. Its good for running windows software but not necessarily gaming as it is by no means bleeding edge. So its all about stability and out of box usage that gives you an interface that is very windows like.

I have not had it crash for me in years.

It is to me. For documents I tend to export as a pdf so there is no formatting issues on the other persons end with the file. If they ask for a microsoft format I save it as that and send it to them.

will be interesting to see when the 2025 map comes out.

yeah basically the word of mouth and community networks will become ads and you will get things like leave five stars and get some shit with tell your friends and get some shit.

This type of activity just increased and increased in the aughts and slashdot just was pointless. Its sorta like the superbowl for me. Best to just avoid the stream and check out best of lists after the fact.

I do miss the way I used to be where I would get things exactly as I want and experiment with things. Now I just want to slap something on and be using it within the hour.

I have not been on since my last comment but man I remember avoiding the internet for a day back in the day. Good to be back.

ahh. yeah. forgot. its don’t look at the internet day.

this makes me think of the dilbert where the lazy guy talks about reusing code from payroll on this project for airline software and warns his workmates to not fly on payday.

You get my standard reply that I use zorin which is an ubuntu based distro that tries to give the look of feel of windows and has a lot of default installed things like wine/playonlinux, libreoffice, app for disc burning, rdp client, basically most everything I would want for day to day use. It is not necessarily the best gaming distro and its certainly not bleeding edge. Its a great install and get to doing things right away distro to me which is what I want.

I remember asking my company if they have official password management software in my job before my last job. They did not. I can’t believe we have all this specific software to be used at the company but they don’t put some time to identify what they want employees to use for this. Funny thing is security teams are such big deals but I think they actually don’t want to get involved in case it does not work out.
