I only ever really saw him in Road Trip, which was dismal, but I can respect that he was obviously doing whatever he wanted and didn’t care whether you thought it was funny or not. He certainly didn’t fit into the overall vibe.

I just realised that reads like an obituary. RIP, Tom.

Branching version control was definitely a “they have played us for absolute fools” moment. Especially after all our projects ended up as isolated branches on isolated microservice repositories so basically none of our code was being integrated, let alone continuously. Good for full-remote open source projects where a central admin team has to police submissions though.

I’m sure they’ll just give your country back after this though.

I remember so little from my studies I do tend to wonder if it would really have cheating to… er… cheat. Higher education was like this horrendous ordeal where I had to perform insane memorisation tasks between binge drinking, and all so I could get my foot in the door as a dev and then start learning real skills on the job (e.g. “agile” didn’t even exist yet then, only XP. Build servers and source control were in their infancy. Unit tests the distant dreams of a madman.)

Because Trump don’t know her name, and the news media have chosen him as their protagonist.

Honestly it’s good for the MAGA crowd to see that normal people in America are armed too. They see themselves as wolves among sheep, while the masses are armed only with their useless empathy and critical thinking skills.
