All these traitors using USB… A real patriot connects their peripherals only through the USA.

March was the first month of the Roman year. Not sure why that changed.

But if that’s how you’re going to run it, why not also train it in that mode?

Or they are passionate and curious about reinventing the wheel.

Well, there’s multiple months in a year, but only one day per day, so that makes total sense somehow.

Isn’t this basically a kind of insider trading? They wouldn’t be allowed to buy that stock, knowing that this deal is about to happen, but receiving it as part of the deal is okay? That doesn’t feel right to me.

What!? It’s more user friendly this way. No need to make the user switch to a totally different device when you can tell them right here!

(I hate pointing out sarcasm, but it’s better not to risk it these days.)

Do they have any evidence that F-droid serves more malware than Play Store?

Yeah, super annoying. In Linux you can rename or move it and the app using it doesn’t care.

Although having the option of listing the app using a file so I can kill the app would also be really nice to have. I’m sure Linux has something for that too, but I don’t know what it is.

No man, Woz has a completely different beard.

That’s not what I picked up from it. The biggest idea that it presents very early in the book is that of a shared subjective truth: most of the things that make up our society, like countries, laws, corporations, etc. do not exist objectively; they only exist because we all believe in them. Objectively, these things don’t exist, but our society is built upon everybody agreeing that these imaginary orders exist, and we’re constantly inventing new imaginary structures on top of that.

I switched newspapers when I noticed that every time my newspaper write about something I actually knew about, they wrote garbage.

Sapiens does present some really powerful ideas, though. I enjoyed it a lot, but the book clearly glosses over a lot of details. Then again, it tries to tackle a ridiculously big scope, so I can see how it can’t get into all of the details. I still consider it a worthy read despite its shortcomings. But read it more for the ideas than for the facts.

Googling stuff online doesn’t make you a programmer either. You still have to learn it, know how to apply what you look up, understand how the computer works. Although it’s easier to learn by yourself, at least partially because there are no lives at stake.

And doctors look up plenty of stuff too. Only a fool would think they already know everything.

Ah, it’s just a fancy ad. That explains the poor writing.

Not all NoSQL databases are the same. Neo4j is acid compliant, and lightning fast for complex relationships that relational databases struggle with.
