no it’s the joke. In o-notation you always use the highest approximation, so o(n!²) does not exist, it’s only o(n!)

Otherwise there would never be o(1) or o(n), because o(1) would imply that the algorithm only has a single line of instructions, same for o(n)

I just googled “BASF T-Shirt” and immediately found the one he is wearing in this video (and he wear it in a couple of other videos recently)

Just using fluentd to push the files into an ElasticSearch DB and using Kibana as frontend is one day of work for a kubernetes admin and it works good enough (and way better than grepping logfiles from every of the 3000 pods running in a big cluster)

And if something breaks they put the burden on you for not creating backups. Always keep it in writing that you are supposed to work on something else, otherwise you will get the problem down the line

I updated my sources.list to something non-existing at some point and run sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade -y && sudo apt autoremove once and it also basically uninstalled everything. But that didn’t even matter, I popped in a recovery disk and could reinstall everything. Pretty great to be able to do all that with Linux, fuck everything up in an instant but after a few hours everything is back again

The adapter is still the inconvenience for me, just because the other option is a (tiny) inconvenience for you doesn’t change the fact that the adapter is an inconvenience for me.

The adapter IS the inconvenience.

All of scandinavia. There are public registers where you can look up the salary of everyone for norway, sweden and finland. When these registers were introduced, the salaries were normalized across the whole population

that’s very nice, we got substituted coffee as well but it was still 1,50 per cup

I don’t think it’s because you grew up poor. It’s because why would you buy coffee everyday?

I buy coffee almost everytime I’m at an airport or a train station, but that’s like… once every two months? If I would commute by train, I wouldn’t buy coffee everytime I’m at the train station, I would just wait until I’m in the office to grab a cup.

But I did buy a coffee daily, when I was in university. There was no way to get a coffee besides buying one, so I bought one. So I think thats the main thing about buying daily, necessity. Some companies only have paid machines, so you buy a coffee daily when at work. In school or university you don’t have a coffee machine available, so you buy one daily.

PgUp and PgDn are also extremely useful when scrolling through logs

I try to tell myself that I can’t do anything about it to calm down, then I find a solution and I can do something about it

This has nothing directly to do with The Day Before, but: Backing a Kickstarter is something completely different and that has to come into peoples heads. Preorders are for a mostly finished product that will 100% ship. The devs have enough funding from investors and publishers, the game will be released no matter how little preorders they will get. Crowdfunding however is for an idea in its infancy that might never be finished. Crowdfunding is an investment.

But where is the difference in this case, The Day Before? Well, easy: When you invest in a kickstarter, the company has to use the money you invested to actually develop the game. They can’t buy fancy cars with the money, they need to put it to good use. If the company uses the money for their own personal benefit, they can be sued for that. For preorders thats not the case.

I couldn’t disagree more with you.

1. There was no preorder
2. This was a Kickstarter Project where a lot of people backed
3. For years the devs didn’t give a lot of information to the backers
4. There was a class action lawsuit for scamming against the developers because they just took the money and didn’t do anything with it
5. Now they published something so they can say “here we did something with all of the money” yet it’s obvious that what they developed did not take years.

It’s pretty obvious that they only published the game in the current state because of the lawsuit. The game is a total scam and they deserve the hate from the people that invested a lot of money when backing. Backing on Kickstarter has something to do with trust. Of course, the project may never be finished and that’s okay. But it’s obvious here, that they just took the money and did not use it for the game.

GTA V was 2 years later and it even came out after the next-gen release. But I waited patiently, I skipped any spoilers for 2 years and it was well worth it. Also, GTA has such a long lifespan that the wait really doesn’t matter

to be fair, if you want something which you would buy for the normal price, it still makes sense to wait for Black Friday in the hope that it’s reduced. If it isn’t you haven’t lost out on anything and if it is reduced, you won a few bucks

From one Datacenter? Yes. If you put all datacenters into the sea? Definitely not. And if the Bitcoin scumbags decide that this is a good idea and built huge mining farms underwarer it’s even worse. Datacenters are one of the biggest contributors to energy need already, taking up 1-1.3% of global energy demand. That’s no joke

I don’t think that this would work, there are no types anymore during runtime because everything is translated into plain js on build. TypeScript only exists during development

The main problem with JavaScript and TypeScript is that there is such a little entrybarrier to it, that way too many people use it without understanding it. The amount of times that we had major issues in production because someone doesn’t understand TypeScript is not countable anymore and our project went live only 4 months ago.

For example, when you use nest.js and want to use a boolean value as a query parameter.

As an example:

@Get('valueOfMyBoolean')
@ApiQuery(
  {
    name: 'myBoolean',
    type: boolean,
  }
)
myBooleanFunction(
  @Query('myBoolean') myBoolean: boolean
){
  if(myBoolean){
    return 'myBoolean is true';
  }
  return 'myBoolean is false';
}

You see this code. You don’t see anything wrong with it. The architect looks at it in code review and doesn’t see anything wrong with it. But then you do a GET https://something.com/valueOfMyBoolean?myBoolean=false and you get “myBoolean is true” and if you do typeOf(myBoolean) you will see that, despite you declaring it twice, myBoolean is not a boolean but a string. But when running the unit-tests, myBoolean is a boolean.

I hate Typescript for promising me that nobody can put cyanide on the list, but in reality it disallows ME from putting cyanide on the list, but everyone else from the outside is still allowed to do so by using the API which is plain JavaScript again
