The whole “no documentation” argument is bullshit. THERE IS PAPERWORK. It’s likely somewhere near the authorized person who keyed the invoice in the computer. There has to be to keep internal/external auditors happy. Otherwise, people would be fired and charged with a theft crime.

re: frankenstein vs frankenstein's moster debate, i assume the monster is sort of like the doctor's son surrogate, so they would both probably have the same last name. so both of them are frankenstein. it's like japan, everybody calls each other by their family name. frankenstein-san. #monsterdon #BS

Rule of thumb: if a company operating in a highly technical scientific space chooses to release its progress reports or results in an "exclusive" with a mainstream media outlet, rather than via a scientific journal, it's not a scientific company. It's a financial grift.

The #Atari 1200XL was a 8bit #homecomputer running a #MOS 6502 #CPU at 1.79 MHz. When this beautiful machine was launched in 1983 with 64Kb RAM the price was under thousand dollars, but... https://youtu.be/JyA5tA5mmYY

$omehow, in the #8bitwar the #C64 was much more popular even when specs been almost the same. The difference in #BASIC language was less significant for the success. Most likely that competition was won by #Commodore because Jack Tramiel took the advice of his grandfather so serious.

Yeah, truly, there is a modern #Greek saying, "a pus*y can tug a ship", so why not a thousand ships? A few bones found 75 years ago give us certainty about her face, and in spite of already having arthritis and dying in her 30s, she looked just like the girl in the picture 🙄

According to economist Richard D Wolff the notion of "Liberation Day" is white supremacist BS.
The US is to this day a colonial superpower. The notion that the US is "liberating itself" from China, Vietnam and other countries they are imposing tariffs on is total BS. Trump is manipulating his base into believing that the US a victim of unfair trading.
And that's just a small portion of what's wrong with Trump's tariffs.

Modern #TechStack|s are convenient but they also make #developers lazy and result in the #enfattening of #Software and #Games.

Nowadays we have shitty #WebApps that eat up 100+MB just for a #WebView and which are instantly useless once they don't have a high-speed, low latency internet connection!

  • People like #GraceHopper and #MargaretHamilton propably wouldn't even be mad, but just disappointed, knowing how a modern #IDE eats more computing power than the entire human race had at their career peaks...

And don't even get me started on all the #WastefulComputing aka. "#AI" #bs and #Shitcoin - #Scams!
