I mean, some of those things are just because online recipes are usually shit. You can pretty much always use a spice blend instead of salt and pepper, you can always add Chile powder at any concentration you desire, and you should always double the garlic (at least). Granted, some of this is because most recipes are written by AI nowadays.

No one on LinkedIn has a real job, they’re all just bragging about being self-employed or paid to post there to “generate positive public opinion on 50 hour work weeks”.

Or, more accurately, ‘a novel that is at most partially by Lena McDonald’.

And MinusJs depends on AngularJs and VueJs for some reason, but that’s just the cost of doing business!

Because Mozilla is the master of bad ideas and most open source projects are leaving github, not joining it.

Remember the meme where all the parentheses are on the right hand side? This meme is the same.

As a former student who tried to stay on top of the absurd logistics of making use of my premium license, it sucks. Once a year you have to dig up your old account credentials, and it’s always when you’re in the middle of a high stakes project. Worrying about licensing sucks, even when someone else is paying for it.

Unironically, this is a very cool tool as an import profiler.

Almost certainly, they’re counting on their “audits” consisting of a script that looks for “$500 per week” in the descriotion to confirm that they’re posting ads.

Pandas was always 200% slow, nothing lost there.

I always go with password2 cuz everyone throws a fit about password1 being insecure.

Someone actually invented Tony the Toilet Buddy

Python does not need to be compiled, have you ever used it?

Can you please articulate why Python and Bash are so different in your eyes?

Yes, that is the problem I wanted to acknowledge, thank you for clarifying.

My comment stands

I just want to pause a moment to wish a “fuck you” to the guy who named an AI model “Cursor” as if that’s a useful name. It’s like they’re expecting accidental google searches to be a major source of recruitment.

EEE is a tool to steal users, not products. In the case of Microsoft, using EEE tactics with Linux is to convince people that they can stay on a Windows machine and get their work done, so they don’t need a Linux computer. In the Fediverse, thr value of stealing users is much more obvious.

What’s stopping the downloaded script from wiping my home directory?

What’s stopping any Makefile, build script, or executable from running rm -rf ~? The correct answer is “nothing”. PPAs are similarly open, things are a little safer if you only use your distro’s default package sources, but it’s always possible that a program will want to be able to delete something in your home directory, so it always has permission.

Containerized apps are the only way around this, where they get their own home directory.
