Sure. Or it’s just tiredness and completely normal to happen.

presumably because it doesn’t recognize my keyboard type??

The answer by Apple (and their parroting fanbois): You don’t actually need those keys. It’s confusing for users to have too many characters.

Not necessarily even that. Piracy can benefit the developer by increasing popularity. Piracy made Bill Gates a billionaire despite his fighting tooth and nails against it.

Millennials grew up alongside modern computing (meaning the two matured together). We dealt with everything from BASIC on a C64 to DOS and then through Windows 3 through current. We also grew up alongside Linux

Only the oldest millenials did. When the youngest were born, the internet and Windows 95 were readily available and they were in middle school when the iPhone came out.

I have no clue about any instrument but if that’s basic I don’t wanna see the pro version.

I swear it’s always Adblock Plus in memes about ad-blocking. Who makes these memes?

Different mindset. A user doesn’t want to find bugs but get shit done.

And we absolutely wanted to shoot the tester who gave us this use case.

Why? Because he tested well and broke the software? A user changing their mind during a guided activity absolutely is a valid use case.

Yes, but pirated software is also an incredibly simple attack vector.

Yeah, the people at Pixar have no clue how to use a computer. Lol

Do you really expect their artists to be IT experts? You seem to be stuck in the early 90s mindset when “knowing how to use a computer” covered all disciplines.

But it can also be a matter of (inexperienced) devs just deciding, fuck it, I won’t try to merge it, I’ll just copy my changes elsewhere and throw away the repo.

Pretty sure that’s actually it. Git has a learning curve and, for example, some naive rebase not working out as intended can be scary if you don’t know what you’re doing.

It works well - for a Windows subsystem. It is well-integrated but also separate which can be annoying sometimes.

For example, you might code in Python in VSC against a WSL folder but make a script to eventually run in Windows. You need to install and update Python twice then - a Linux and a Windows version (obvious, but can be annoying).

WSL is also really slow, especially for filesystem heavy stuff. You know how on Linux programs sometimes run faster via Wine/Proton than on Windows itself? Yeah, this is the other way around.

It was earlier, when they released Windows 7 and it was the first (and only) release, management gave development a largely free hand and they could bring down some technical debt.

But apparently that didn’t work out for Microsoft and now we get one dystopian news after another.

Isn’t the POSIX incompatibility a major roadblock when scripting?

It’ll drop the price, so there’s that at least.

It must be a really deeply integrated part of the Windows kernel because it has never been able to show progress properly.

Back in the days of floppy disks it always felt that actual copying started when the progress showed 100%.

Which messenger? Signal and WhatsApp support it.

Edit: saw your reply below, it’s Facebook Messenger. Yeah, that’s a whole other problem of its own.

has a ahape that makes it easy to figure out

May I introduce you to USB C then where it doesn’t fucking matter how you plug it? I definitely prefer mini over the micro abomination but it’s not “the best”.

Makes sense. It’s like having your personal undergrad hobby coder. It may get something right here and there but for professional coding it’s still worse than the gold standard (googling Stackoverflow).
