I use Ubuntu at work. No issues with it.

I went to a top rated engineering school in the US and found the CS program easy. It helped that I enjoyed most of my classes, and that had been teaching myself for years before I got there. I had plenty of free time to spend with friends or whatever else.

While I’ve certainly had jobs that demanded long hours, I’ve had others that are more reasonable, and with good pay. It’s more possible now to find a good paying job with good work/life balance than when I started working over 20 years ago.

Don’t let the negative people scare you away from school or the industry. Ultimately your experience will be your own. If you find that the path you’re on isn’t working for you, just do something else!

I bought some of the Star Trek branded wines a few years back. They were unremarkable.

Seeing that Thor movie once was 1 time too many. I can’t imagine seeing it 33 times.

This just blew my mind. I had always assumed Java was older. I started writing hobby projects in Java in the 90s. I don’t think I heard about Python until the early 2000s.

I use Chewy. They were able to verify the prescription with my vet and I can reorder as needed.

I find it difficult to believe that breaking down steel to be 3d printed into large structures for a bridge is faster or more energy efficient than casting the parts instead.

Why is half this article about population decline? The writing also seems weird in places. AI generated, maybe?

I felt like the real prank was on me for having paid money to watch it

“why” is a perfectly valid question to ask

There’s a good amount of star Trek content on Netflix already. I expect more will follow if paramount can’t keep it’s numbers up

That’s not the point though. The point is that the human comedian and the AI both benefit from consuming creative works covered by copyright.

Vulcan was delayed because of BE-4 readiness, not because of anything ULA itself was doing

Further what do you think I meant with high end premium?

The base model X costs twice the base model Y. I’d consider the X expensive. I wouldn’t put the Y in the same category.

I wouldn’t consider the Tesla model Y a high end premium vehicle. It was the best selling vehicle in the world earlier this year, in spite of the higher price than gas-powered competitors:

Somebody crunched some numbers and decided that they’d keep more customers by making an optional fee instead of raising the price for everyone

What is wrong with Google’s C++ guide?

Exactly. I use 10 at home and at work and have no issues with either. There’s no technical reason for anyone to upgrade.

C++ has had the same style of obtuse errors for decades. They can be a real pain to figure out even if you are used to seeing them.

Nobody reading about the contest in the linked page should have to rely on Google to fully understand the parameters of the contest. Whoever authored this page is lazy.
