So, currently I am on Vacation and my dad asked me to train two of his staff members to use computer for data entry and basic usage stuff.
Now both guys are total noobs and have never used a computer before.
So I decided to take this opportunity to conduct a simple experiment. I am training one on Windows and other on Ubuntu to check out which one performs better.
The windows guy is winning.5 -
Microsoft is investing in Git, VSCode, Electron, Github, Bash-on-Windows. Things that decentralize and help prevent lock-in.
Apple is taking away the only universal cross platform graphics system (OpenGL), locking developers into Metal, and taking away our escape keys.25 -
Y'all are ranting about Microsoft GitHub when Apple decides to deprecate OpenGL support on macOS.

So, yesterday I was talking to a friend who had a fukin BUSINESS IDEA of starting Uber like service for his local town(where his university is).
Apparently, the moron was searching for someone to make an Uber like app for him (Both fukin Android and iOS) and he was hoping to get it done in under fukin 5000 INR (less than 100 USD).
I was like wtf 😐7 -
Trend of the day:
1. Facebook is really compromising user privacy, will delete my account!
2. Post about deleting Fb account to twitter, instagram, etc
3. "Ok google, what is privacy?"
4. Find a random app in play store and allow access regardless20 -
Me: Enters SQL class
Prof: We will draw ERD diagram on awwapp
Me: (In my head - I hate ERD diagrams) start drawing the first ERD diagram
Prof: That diagram is wrong
Prof: opens SQL Activities_Solution.pdf on his PC
Me: Tried to change the file name on aws to get solution file - fail
Copy SQL Activities.pdf file url (https://url/courses/6429/...). Adds 1 to 1100726 = 1100727 and downloads SQL Activities_Solution.pdf
Open PDF in one tab and awwapp on another and just draw the solution
Prof: Are you sure this diagram is corect?
Me: (In my head - I copied the solution so yes) ...
Prof: Let me check the question
Me: (In my head - seriously? you don't know the answer)
Prof: Checks the correct answer on his PC and then checks the answer on my PC
Me: (In my head - completed another boring uni class) pack up and go home8 -
I hate it when people say they want to "GET a new girlfriend"...
Shouldn't it be "FIND a new girlfriend"?
I mean you can't just go into the supermarket and get some butter, milk and a new girlfriend. You can't buy them. By saying that, you seem to me as if you're treating women as objects. I know it's technically possible to buy a girlfriend, but that's prostitution.
I think that "GET a new girlfriend" just doesn't sound right...
Your opinions?38 -
"Work for me", client said, "I won't pay you but you will get some reputations for working with us" he added.
"Sorry, my body can't digest reputation", I replied.11 -

Okay so today I opened a link to buy a screen for my Raspberry pi on my phone(Chrome browser) and was simultaneously using FB on my Laptop in mozilla.
And that very moment I had ads on FB to but that screen.
Now I know it's nothing new, but at the moment of realization it just felt so creepy.
Privacy literally doesn't exist anymore!18 -
*Builds a web component for a client website*
CLIENT: I don't like it, can I have it a tiny bit over to the right more
ME: Taps the arrow key a few times making it look like I'm doing something.(Which actually does nothing)
Client: 👌Perfect

Bought this Lenovo thinkpad netbook a while ago.
I was told it has 4gb ram.
Just did a free and free -m command.
It shows nearly 8gb of ram.

So, there is this guy whose arguments on "How Apple is bad" are
1) "while copying files in Finder, you don't see a speed graph (like in Windows)"
2) "MacBooks don't have a Touchscreen"
3) "it's slow"
4) "you can't play games (like GTA V)"
5) "having app menus always on the top of the screen instead of in every window makes no sense"
Arguments on "why Linux is bad":
1) "it's ugly"
2) no gaming (same as point 4 above)
3)... And other biased irrelevant shit
Yet his amazing old Windows 10 computer with the most recent Insider build has only a 65% chance of booting on the first attempt. Almost nothing works properly on his hardware yet he always blames something unrelated to him.
Recently I was having trouble with the workplace wifi (for few minutes I wasn't having full speed like he on the other side of the room had), and his reaction "aha, it's your macOS, never working".
Like wtf. I don't hate Windows or I don't love Linux, but I night hate him for being an arrogant cunt and I want to punch his face.8 -

Hello there!
For the last months I only was a silent reader. As I configured my .zshrc, I thought I could combine my first post with the result of my work. Didn't thought, I could invest that much time in something like this...6
