lol at these companies have hyper efficiency themselves into being inoperable if they cant generate cash for a month with all their money going to the c suite and shareholders

If people unionized and striked they would destroy the companies that dont immediately relent

ya honestly this has revealed the power of the strike for all to see

a secret, forbidden technique, long forgotten, which the globalized just-in-time economy optimized for shareholder value has lost its defenses against

Been growing a beard in quarantine.

When does it stop loving itching? Is it never? Do people with beard have itchy faces all the time?

it stops once your face is no longer ashamed of itself, which depends on the rate of hair growth. a goony semi-beard that's constantly being shaved and then neglected such that you constantly look like a 15 year old trying to grow a beard, that will itch all the time as a punishment from god.

you just have to power through that part, a quarantine is a good time to do it.

Hey man, when I say zero programming experience, I mean don't start throwing acronyms at me.

honestly i doubt you'd face much bigger barriers than anyone else because mainframe programming is weird, but nobody would let you in the room with a mainframe without previous programming experience (or nepotism) i bet

you don't want to lock yourself into the cobol job ecosystem imo tho. none of the organizations still using mainframes are going to use them indefinitely, they're all too cheap to train anybody up and IBM must charge an insane amount of money to continue maintenance at this point. eventually the cost of a rewrite in a PC-oriented language (i.e. literally anything else) is going to be less than the ongoing costs of using the mainframes

which is when you'll start to see some real poo poo as moron programmers destroy the banking system by making the wire transfers web scale

doesn’t cobol predate structured programming so its is effectively impossible to even try to take a small piece of ur system and understand it in isolation even if you theoretically had the domain knowledge (lol) or the time (double lmao)

yes, cobol predates structured programming, but most cobol code was written after control flow was added to the language so that's not really the problem

modern cobol is a surprisingly usable language. programmers in that ecosystem didn't just wall themselves off from all progress forever. the problem is that the really, really key parts of the system are not written in modern cobol. cobol codebases are generally a lot of decent-ish code layered on top of a black box ancient core that nobody understands how to change

gotta say i do not understand curfews in a pandemic situation

the goal is to spread everybody out right? how does restricting people to certain hours for certain activities do anything but increase density during those specific hours? you really want the people who do everything at odd hours to keep doing that, not force them to shift their activity to match everyone else

lots of people have no choice but to be out during the day: essential workers, healthcare workers, people with non-covid healthcare needs, et. you do not have to be out to exercise. The people who have no choice get right of way. Seems pretty clear, I don't know why people are still treating this like any of it is supposed to be fair or fun, it's a horrible global pandemic.

If you are stuck at home anyway sorry you will have to go for a walk or jog in the evening, it's not like time matters to you or you need to be up for work?

cool, keep being condescending and i'm sure you will make many posting pals

the paris thing does make more sense than the jurisdictions that have implemented traditional curfews, i.e. no movement at night

no wtf

Stereotype posted:

In Hawaii everyone is still crazy on edge and no one wants to leave their house and we have had zero new cases two days in a row. What is wrong with these states where they are like "welp we had another 2000 people infected just today and it is still increasing every single day, but people really want to go out so we are going to force them to do that." How are they so disconnected from reality?

"In the primary and esoteric meaning, haole indicates a race that has no relation to one's own; an outsider, one who does not conform to the mores of the group; one that is void of the life element because of inattention to natural laws which make for the goodness in man."
