Laughed more than I like to admit

Babushka prefers dark theme.

I just overheard a conversation in my uni and I'm horrified.
They want to use Comic Sans as the main font in the app they're going to develop
I hope I just imagined this

Drinking game:

Take a shot every time you see “Microsoft buying GitHub” related rant

The more you look, the worse it gets

Problem 1: that's literally all of steam
Problem 2: they don't police it now
Problem 3: just... All of this

Please share some ♥️ for the NSA People.

Jumping on that bandwagon

With all the memes and rants, they just don't learn.
I got this in email 20 minutes back.

That weird and uncomfortable feeling you get when trawling through analytic data only to realise your top 5 browsers are in order:

Google Chrome
iOS Safari
IE11
Edge
Firefox

I think I need to go back to testing things in IE again 😫

How's this? ❤️ Old Lapy

Two nginx config files for two different sites.

Both exactly the same except for the fastcgi location, document root and virtual host.

THE MOTHERFUCKING GET VALUES DOESN'T REWRITE PROPERLY WITH ONE OF THEM BUT IT WORKS PER-FUCKING-FECTLY WITH THE OTHER ONE.

GO SUCK A COCK NGINX. AND NO I'M NOT SWITCHING TO APACHE.

A friend asked me to test a program he made
So i downloaded it, and i noticed that i crash when you try to minimize the window
After i tell him about the bug, he send me a new version, and said "I fixed it, it was pretty easy"
He just removed the minimize button
"to remove a bug, remove the feature"

Query for the clients and some people

Me: *Opens GitHub issue*

Maintainer: "it's a known issue"

# issue closed

Ahahahahahaha

I was on GitLab before it was cool

Me buying toys:
Stranger: (coy oooo) "How old is he?"
Me: "ooh. He's turning 23 this month"
Stranger: "months?"
Me: "years."

Five minutes later in the same store meets stranger again.
Me: "Wanna come to my birthday party?"

NEED HELP

An ant has entered my monitor and running all over the screen from inside. It's super irritating.
How can I get it out?

This whole Microsoft & GitHub thing is how it begins:

1) Embrace
oh it's really cool, Microsoft is adding some cool features we've been missing for a while, GitHub is still great

2) Extend
Alright, there's this new `msgit` that has some really cool features for rebasing and merge conflicts, I won't need to worry about fucking up my git history

3) Extinguish
`msgit` is not compatible with `git` and GitHub requires us to use it, but what can we do, all our code and build triggers are set up..

They are doing the same thing to JavaScript with TypeScript and stopped the development of the Internet for ~10 years...

I don't want to paint dark clouds, but I heard this theory at work and it makes sense that Ms would take it in a direction where people are locked in to their ecosystem. It won't happen immediately, but all signs point to this.

Today, I learned the shortest command which will determine if a ping from your machine can reach the Internet:

ping 1.1

This parses as 1.0.0.1, which thanks to Cloudflare, is now the IP address of an Internet-facing machine which responds to ICMP pings.

Oh, you can also use this trick to parse 10.0.0.x from `10.x` or 127.0.0.1 from `127.1`. It's just like IPv6's :: notation, except less explicit.

So I recently was donated a bunch of old iPhones to fix up and resell. When I turned on one of the iPhone 5s'es, I was greeted with this:

Okey-dokey... I guess I'll just sit here and wait...
