I started with C++ and went to Java to .NET to Javascript and now to Terraform.

I know this is all a joke but there's something definitely different with the ones above and the ones below. There's a bit of satisfaction you can get sometimes when you're working with memory directly and getting faster feedback (yes, there's more math back then and it wasn't easy to look stuff up, for sure). However, there's new challenges nowadays ... there's so many layers on top of layers. I feel as though Stack Overflow and ChatGPT are so needed because the error messages and things we give are obfuscated or unclear (not always any library author's fault as there's compatibility issues, etc)

We're doing serverless stuff at my current company and none of our devs run code locally. They have to upload it using CDK or Serverless Framework to run on the cloud. We don't use SST so we can't set breakpoints but like that's a lot of crap inbetween just running your code already. Not even getting into the libraries and transpilers and stuff we use. I spent like a few weeks over Christmas to get our devs to run the code locally. Guess what? None of them use it because they're so use to uploading it. I was like, "you can put breakpoints in it! you can have nodemon and it instant reloads! nope, none of them care ... "

I saw that on Vaush's stream and it's got so much of what I love. Cheap, simple, extendible ...

I'm also not a truck guy or anything but I love it conceptually. I'll be driving my Civic for like ten years or more.

Brianna Wu

Never known anything but I have seen the name. So I've skimmed her Wikipedia just now. So she was harassed during GamerGate. Is Pro-Israel and claims the left is letting down their Jewish allies. Had a few congressional bids.

Oh, I see her with something with Cenk and Rebellion PAC. Not gonna lie, I gave up on Cenk ages ago and it seems things haven't gotten much better for him (especially lately with him and Ana apparently attacking the left?).

I've probably skimmed too fast but what specifically are you referring to? I see she didn't get a full degree from the University of Mississippi.

lol dude, I watched Baywatch, San Andreas, Rampage, SkyScraper, Jumanji and Central Intelligence from what I remember with my ex. I swear to God those movies get blurred in my mind due to his "samey" character/acting.

I think some of the movies you could argue that aren't shite of the Rock's are Rundown, Jumanji, Moana, and maybe some of the Fast and Furious movies. Although, I never really watched those (I've only see the first) but other people seem to enjoy them.

I mean there's a list of actors that have ruined their shows for me:

• Danny Masterson
• Bill Cosby
• Kevin Spacey
• James Franco
• Kevin Sorbo
• Tom Cruise

So it's not really what you asked because these are ones that I used to love and no longer do.

For the dumbest reasons, I can't enjoy Gal Gadot. Her acting is repellent to me for some reason. Yes, she's absolutely gorgeous but the acting ain't great. I also didn't enjoy Heather Graham's acting but then I watched her in Scrubs and the role was just perfect. I hated The Rock's acting as well, but my ex had a crush on him so we watched so many of his movies. Almost all of them shite.

I think laws like that wouldn't pass now. It'd be seized as ammo for the culture war and anti-smoking would be woke and all that.

Yeah, my friends and I have made jokes that could be construed as the worse things you've ever heard unless you understood that that's the point. Out of context they'd be terrible, so I know what you mean.

The way my friend described it was quite unpleasant. They could have been joking with him but I think a few of us are more on edge about this so that can be in play. I've also seen news reports about Canadian's in Florida and Floridians joking about taking over Canada and Canadians being quite upset about it too.

I would hope that the Americans were not being intentionally provocative and that it's us Canadians that are not getting their jokes. However, I think most of us just don't take Trump's threats lightly. He's caused so much damage and he's only getting started.

I remember in the George W or Mitt Romney times ... I remember seeing a leaked video recording or some either political dude or rich guy saying that they just needed the dumbest Republican president that is just barely able to hold a pen in office. I'm obviously paraphrasing and I can't for the life of me find the video.

Yup, that's important. The thing is that Carney also needs to appeal to those that don't really pay attention to politics on a regular basis. Those that finally went to voted this election can possibly be like: "I voted last time and it made no difference".

Jesus Christ. There's an actual takeover of your government that you guys can use your guns on. Cosplaying losers.

I really liked The Dropout. Thanks for the recommendation.

I do want to feel bad, especially when hearing Canadians say, "go back to the US" like in that article. Then I hear stories about my Canadian friends going to Arizona for business and people making jokes about being a 51st state to their faces and my compassion dips.
