@Ouya your school forces you to use Mac? Wow..
I only hears of schools that forced Mac users to use Windows
Do they provide any support in case something doesnt work on your ARM-based Mac?

Happy teams start "to migrate from" Jira to anything else (even paper sticky notes)

Hello World!*

Sad to hear that about the M2. Is it the Air or the Pro?
Just setup an external SSD and move the swap to that.
Oh and another one for TimeMachine.
With this setup a regular desktop would have been cheaper

Good luck and bon courage!

Recently found a french magazine for it stuff. Can't remeber the name though

Angular*

Good old Dreamweaver

You have too much money.

I think it's safe to assume the person you talked to is spreading false info to appear well-informed. There's a lot of that going on.

Nice, where I'm from we haven't passed the 2.5 Gb cap yet. Did you find any uses for the max internet speed?

I wish I knew what all those icons belong to. I'm quite new to Mac and have yet to find apps that benefit me (except Carbon Copy Cloner)

Who would want to work at night? Wasn't that the point in the first place when we chose this profession? Not to have to work shifts or in this case to work at night?
If it was 1995 and dial-up was still the way to go, and it was free to use the internet at night. Sure. Otherwise, no thanks.

Same thing happens to all competent devs:
You end up in a meeting describing the technical choices you made to build the latest revolutionary software, but they fail you right away because you didn't give the right answer to the Java streams question.
Then they explain to you something like: "streams... you know? like streams of water or think of it as a river that flows"

@jestdotty and love always wins, damn it

@tosensei also true, but I see companies happy to pay the license for VisualStudio rather than Rider. For some reason they consider the cheaper option better.

About to embark on this trip that is Visual Studio once again next week. Rider is sometimes unreliable

We are all a big family, really!

@vane I for one don't require nvidia hardware and was really hoping Intel would make those new GPUs they released work well

I think its because of greed

A and Don't waste your time.

Testers always leeching on the code someone else wrote, finding all sorts of issues and then trying to get points for that.
Yes I didn't think of the edge cases because I had 1 story point to finish the job and 100 meetings.

Where I work they know. You're either part of the inner circle and gave positive answers, or you're one of the others that hoped his opinion will be considered.

@PaperTrail you just described my job as a dev. QA focuses on a single bug, doesn't even care about the rest until it's fixed

@Hazarth tell that to the yahoos that think the world has changed forever since ChatGPT

@NeatNerdPrime watched it as a teen - changed my life. Still looking for the little book of calm

- do you have a job in ML?
- or are you currently studying ML?
- or given the nature of ML you can never have a job in ML without constantly studying?

@CoreFusionX now they have Entra ID also.
Entra ID to get to the Microsoft One Way, where it's our way or the high way

@AlgoRythm used .NET core 6 and 8. Yeah it might be good but I still feel it pushes you to the Microsoft ecosystem very quickly: it makes integrations easy with Azure, makes you try different Microsoft implementations for auth etc.

In the end, once you want to modify something you find some Microsoft only knowledge hidden behind a paywall or you hope one of the MVPs did a video on it.

@electrineer valid point. I remember when they lauched it they said people will be posting interesting news.
There was even a local start-up that said back then that they will launch their own version of twitter only for business news.
