Every few years I replay Gothic 1 or 2. Are these great games? Yes. Is it also because of nostalgia? Yeah

Also from time to time I reinstall black flag… Mostly for the feeling of sailing

And the first was by far the best

Fuck that. It’s awesome! I want to have lazy initialized globals. It’s that package. I want code to shorten my builder pattern I import that. I need a typed concurrent work steel queue. No problem.

I look at a c project. Everywhere custom macros to do the most basic shit. I want to parse an xml in c? Better use a sax Parser and put all the data into globals. Cryptography? Better implement that ourselves… Using a library would be too much of a hassle.

I like und use “main” because it’s shorter, but call it master branch in colloquial speech because it’s cooler.

And then in the end we realize the most important thing was the tests we wrote along the way.

Hmm… cheap labor under the disguise of community. Brought to you by the people who are not affected.

Somehow ths rubbs me the wrong way. We have discussions about something like this service in Germany too and though I somewhat understand the community aspect, it somehow feels extremely disingenuous to me. It feels like: we have problems in society that we cannot solve with the free market, so let’s take a group of people who cannot vote against it and just make them do it! Also we can just pay them some arbitrary little amount, because they are unskilled workers and we do this by not drafting a huge part of the population, which only profits from this initiative, so we have enough votes to push this through. For me this is generational warfare.

But maybe it’s just me. I remember finishing school and wanting nothing more than to go to university. Imagining being forced by law to go to some arbitrary other work makes me angry and I don’t want that for other people. Try to bring this through for people of all ages and see how much support there is for that.

What do you mean specifically by encryption key handling? You log in, confirm it with one other device, done. Don’t see where I ever used technical knowledge?

I agree there are weird glitches und sometimes bugs, but they mostly get fixed. Mostly :d

Matrix is awesome. Such a pitty that not more people are using it. Though 110 million is already quite a lot

Well the first chapter is very good and reading it will explain why this book is so influential. It’s also not very long. You can do it 💪

I think no one has read Manufacturing Consent beyond the first chapter.

Think I broke both rules…
