my brother is a micro 2 at the Water Authority and his busiest days of the year are Thanksgiving and Christmas because everyone else takes off work to sit on the toilet and poo poo 24/7, and someone has to monitor the water quality with such a massive influx of turds

What can he even do if turd levels in water become critical?

Someone ask Elon if he could segment Twitter into different subtwitters where there is more and more "free speech" until we've recreated Something Awful at its worst. Just tell him you get to opt in and the advertisers will be placated by him having some moderation (they won't be but he is too dumb to realize this)

I bet the firings from the code review were for using the wrong number of spaces, or tabs for indents. Elon seems like that kind of prick.

Ie entirely superficial and easily changed items

Which do you think Elon fired people over, tabs or spaces?

I recently rewatched that and everything that was so over the top and ludicrous just seems rather mundane now, which is funny in itself. Especially when you remember the stories from the creators where they described real interactions with Silicon Valley people that were so weird that they thought nobody would buy it if they used it in the show

It’s always a shock when I have to watch a YouTube video on my phone or something instead of on a PC with uBlock Origin and I get to see what lovely ad-ridden hellscape it is by default

I actually subscribe to youtube premium. I watch way more youtube than netflix or any other streaming service and creators at least get a little bit of money from my view.

Is there any practical reason for spaces over tabs anyway? I thought most IDEs just autocompleted tabs to 4 spaces as standard?

RSS feeds live! Most blogs still use them, and most news site too. For apps my favorites are feedly + Reeder on iOS, but there’s a ton of worthy apps for your RSS reading pleasure! I love Reeder, open the app and you get a giant feed of the sites you subscribe, or you can go in and check headlines per-website subscription.

Twitter dying is great for RSS! There’s dozens of us!

Spaces look nicer when you're working on code on a remote machine using vi or nano. Most editors have the option of replacing tabs with spaces but there are places where tabs are mandatory so having that turned on all the time can be a pain (ie Makefiles or some python files).

Hes a fascist piece of poo poo OP. i think he did get punched a bit, but nowhere near enough. He's always out there inciting violence towards anyone he considers 'left' (as in, directly provided kill lists to a terrorist group).

Ironically, he'd be up against the wall fairly quickly in a fascist dictatorship but here we are.

I think he’s also the source of the “quick-curing concrete is in the milkshakes that are being thrown at patriots, be careful!!!!” bullshit that started a while back.

Quick curing concrete takes ~24hrs to set, but he doesn’t let himself be troubled by little things like “facts”.
