@BernieTheBernie If I ever name a dog Rex, it will be short for Regular Expression.

Hrm. I've never had any male dogs, so I don't know what letter his name would start with. I suppose r is as good as any.
All the girls (except one) started with s. Current favorite in the potentials queue is "Shice", followed by "Selectza".

"Shice"
I think the correct spelling is "Scheisse" or "Scheiße" if you want to be fancy.

One of my current feral cats is "Boo". Short for "Kabuki", 'cause he's got a white face.
Used to be a pair of twins in the colony who were born on my patio. I called them "McDonnell" and "Douglas" because they were both jet black.

Yes but that's much more recognizable. I want people to try pronouncing it first.

@TimeBandit Dear Giulio,
If you think "CI" and "TDD" are the same group of tasks, you don't know shit about software development.

@TimeBandit Dear Giulio,
If you think "CI" and "TDD" are the same group of tasks, you don't know shit about software development.
I read it as "Git and (Continuous
DevelopmentIntegration with Test Driven Development)" - i.e. there's a build server that automatically compiles code when it's checked in, then runs the tests, then rejects the check-in if the test fails. Microsoft Azure DevOps, the thing that used to be TFS, is a product in this space.Being the administrator of that server is a single task. It's a different task than being the developer/tester who writes the code or the tests.
The latter group is doing TDD but not CI. The server administrator is doing "CI with TDD," but he's not doing TDD himself.

@GuyWhoKilledBear TDD is work organization thing, not technology thing. And there's no such term as Continuous Development - CD means Deployment. "CI with TDD" makes as much sense as "programming in HTML". I know what they mean but they're wrong. And I highly doubt they practice TDD anyway.

"Continuous Integration" is the term they meant, which is why they called it CI and not CD. ("Continuous Development" was my typo.)
I know that in principle you can do TDD by hand without any tool support. It would be dumb, but you could do CI that way. You could do any methodology like that.
I think from the context of the post, it's obvious that they meant that "configuring a server to help developers do TDD" is a different job than "be a developer and do TDD."

This is not "funny stuff". This is extremely unfunny bickering about unimportant boring stuff. Take it somewhere fucking else.

This is important boring stuff that has funny downsides. Take your taking stuff somewhere else somewhere else.

They said the advantage of digital images over film is that digital copies don't degrade.
Yet I think the last time this was posted the image still had some more pixels.**

Revisited old Gundam-themed Flash-based creation website, and presently surprised that they're migrating their creations to HTML5 instead of just letting them rot.
This short movies named "逆転炒飯" is really good if you have seen "Gundam Seed" have played "Phoenix Wright" series of game.

Looks like they are failing - most of the letters are replaced with some strange squiggles.

Provided you've not planted your crops already, this is so effective.
No longer need to worry about the drug resistance thing.
As side benefit, whatever they left after being burnt would automatically be part of the fertilizers for your next crop cycle.

The top "Hacker" "News" stories, annotated for your delight. Representative example:
Sublime Text 4
A new version of an old text editor is released. Among the features listed is GPU-accelerated text rendering, which is presented as an optimization, instead of an embarassment. One of the programmers who worked on it arrives in the comment thread to answer questions, but all of the questions are feature requests intended to turn it into VS Code. Later, Hackernews start arguing about which text editor starts the fastest, whether it's worth buying a more powerful computer so that your text editor starts faster, and other questions that only meaningfully affect Mac users.

As for this snippet:
Google Docs gives up on the pretense of being a website, and embraces its nature: a subpar office suite implemented in the world's least-efficient possible GUI toolkit. Some of the original architects of the Google Docs atrocity arrive in the Hackernews comment threads to announce that doing things in the dumbest possible manner turns out to be really difficult; congratulations are handed to all players for having the tenacity and determination to fuck everything up despite all the myriad red flags on the road to mediocrity. The rest of the comments are from Hackernews trying to ascertain exactly which of the walls in Google's walled garden just moved six inches closer in.
It almost feels like I’ve posted this exact same post over here.

I'm sorry for the joke, but it makes it look like John Lennon said it although he never did.
Instead it was from one of BBC's satirical programs.

Probably a pun. Pete was the Best drummer in the Beatles.
