Needs to incorporate this truth in the next iteration:

“All modern communication would collapse if about 50 people, most of which are furries, decided to turn their pager off for a day”

[–] everett@lemmy.ml 77 points 3 days ago (1 children)

This is demonstrably false. Correction:

most of whom are furries

Probably a little tasteless but this plane flying into that stack à la 9-11.

[–] RustyNova@lemmy.world 22 points 3 days ago (2 children)

You say tasteless I say dark humour

All your internet traffic is likely going through at least one network administered by a furry. It seems like there's a much higher proportion of furries in network admin and cybersecurity jobs compared to IT/tech jobs in general.

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 24 points 3 days ago

This just made me realize that the first time I heard the term "furry" was from the network guy I used to work with 20 some years ago .

I love that the shark can take down whole modern digital infrastructure, but it can't stop C developers from writing dynamic arrays.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 58 points 3 days ago

Some species are just perfectly adapted to their niche...

C developers were already writing dynamic arrays before computer data was running through underseas cables.

What is the meaning of the white fish ?

[–] Saprophyte@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He's swimming past an undersea fiber optic cable.

[–] tyler@programming.dev 1 points 1 day ago

It’s eating the cable

Glad I remain the cutest point of failure!

Wow! I’m quite annoyed that it was fixed by restoring the previous package while the author had explicitly deleted it. That seems contrary to the laymen interpretation of code ownership

[–] Mika@piefed.ca 24 points 3 days ago

npm is a bunch of cucks. Folded to the lawyer threats immediately but ignored the authors wish to remove his work off platform, and made sure it's no longer possible?

I have to remember never to use them to share my code. God bless I'm not a node dev.

It looks like the AI screw jack is reverse threaded which wouldn't be obvious until you begin turning it... and that actually isn't a bad metaphor for today's AI.

"Whatever Microsoft is doing" hilarious!. Microsoft is such a total retarded company. Unfortunately Google turned evil too. Any for profit company can turn evil. I'm never going to place full trust in anything that is not 100% fully open source.

[–] Bababasti@feddit.org 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Any for profit company can turn evil.

Any for profit company ~~can~~ will turn evil. Fixed this for you.

And it always flips aws/cloudflare with the unpaid open source devs. In reality the former keeps failing while the latter doesnt.

This implies removing the unpaid opensource developers balances out The AI in short term and idk how to feel ahout that.

[–] Truscape@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 3 days ago

Nah, the angle would be too aggressive - unless the boards have an extremely high friction coefficient, they would slide off to the right (along with anything on top of them).
