You would be amazed!

I’m glad it’s only the football streaming sites, but I don’t much like that companies get this kind of legal power.
I wish I could do that for Band Maid. I really want them to get my money. Not some fucking glorified delivery company.
I remember playing Wildlands and loving it so much I actually bought the game full price. Sometimes you gotta vote with your wallet.
Same reason as usual : the music I like isn’t conveniently available elsewhere I’ve looked to purchase, or available at unreasonable prices that won’t benefit the artist, and I refuse to stream shit. So the high seas it is!
DDG since 2016 when I had to switch because I was in China. Never went back and with everything I hear about Google, I don’t plan to. Only Google thing I still have and enjoy is Maps.
Not one company I’ve worked at has ever paid a license for anything if it was at all possible to do it freely.
EPPlus trying to get money for their hard work? Guess we are stuck on the free version forever then…
It’s fucking embarrassing.
That’s what I did and I loved it. jQuery, some jQuery API, some dataTables, my backend in C# and off I go! Not perfect, but really enjoyable. Also SCSS is wonderful and I’m never going back.
It’s “four screens side by side” display. Why not, I guess.
Thanks for correcting. Pleco confirmed the one I wrote, but this is the one I learnt and actually wanted to write!
China, at least. Lots of distinction between mother side and father side. Grandma can be 老老 laolao (mother’s mother) or 奶奶 nainai (father’s mother), for example.
That has to be because in Chinese there is a single word for it, like for so many other relative nouns.
… I think I found it : 老表 (laobiao) Defined as “male cousin (on the maternal side or on the paternal aunt’s side)”
I’m embarrassed to say I only finally got it now. After reading the joke last night. -_-;
Backdoors all the way down!
A few months back I crashed a db in prod. I detached it and when I tried to reattach it simply refused, saying it was corrupted or some shit.
Lucky me we have a backup solution.
Unfortunately it was being upgraded, with difficulties.
That was a long day.
I worked for a big Euro bank for a bit and that was exactly it. JS timeouts were forbidden, so no animation to tell you something was finished, you had to keep clicking a Refresh button to know. In 2022.
And the colleagues who had been there a few years were actually defending this shit. Stockholm Syndrome is what it is. There wasn’t a day I didn’t complain about their piece of garbage of an intranet.
I’m so glad it’s behind me.
It is the way!
I agree! There really should be no excuses at this point… you’d think. Even in 2008 I already felt we were behind the loop, but apparently I was vastly underestimating how bigger companies just dgaf.
I feel this in my bones. As an OG dev, I had this incredible urge to smack people when I was working for my last job and I saw the API specs with everything being sent as strings through JSON. Boolean? Sure, let’s use a string. Integers? Sure we’ll do conversion in our code, that’ll be more efficient… So fucking infuriating. Oh and don’t get me started on JsonSchema T_T
