That’s says more about how bad the average developer is tbh.

Which part of “apartment complex” did you misunderstand

You and I have very different idea of what a road trip should be like

You genuinely believe Trump did this for the good of the Venezuelan people? Some here shouldn’t be throwing the first stone…

Given 1 isn’t true, it’s a rather easy guess

Australia gave up on their sovereignty when they chose US submarines. They’re just reaping what was sown at this point (not submarines, that’s for sure).

Any popular Linux distro fits. I’d go with mint

Hot take: the whole (theoretical) concept behind capitalism

GH is down every second day, yet we’re still alive

Now think about how much worse it is for every non-English western language! But good luck with your endeavour.

Merz? Is that you? Building the next strawman so you can keep ruining the country next election?

AUR is not the official distro. Complaining about arch because of the AUR is like complaining about Debian because you npm install some malware

It’s difficult to take people shitting on arch in here seriously. I’ll take 1h per year fixing whatever broke over a whole weekend upgrading Debian.

Oh and god forbid you need to compile yourself a package and maybe a few of its dependencies from scratch because that 6 years old bug didn’t make it through the freeze last release.

Lots of people shilling for Big Oil in this comment section

but through businesses taking loans.

… Also called “printing money”.

The classic inflation from the economy working a little too well is not a flat tax, since both wages and prices are growing

Inflation doesn’t cause wages to grow proportionally, despite what some Harvard wankers like to pretend. Theoretical models are interesting in science, but for something like economy, they are completely useless.

Classic inflation erodes the savings of the rich, and erodes the debts of the poor.

Capital ROI is almost always greater than inflation, meaning wealth inequality increases regardless of inflation. This is before taking into account that physical assets (e.g. housing) also increase in value through inflation, meaning the owning class never loses money to inflation.

Again, theory and practice diverge pretty much entirely.

Inflation is a concept created by governments to be able to run on a perpetual deficit (necessary when you privatise everything profitable by selling it to your buddies). Making a tax on the poor is a “nice” benefit, but don’t be mistaken: if the owning class saw it as a threat to their wealth we’d be back to the gold standard already.

That’s grossly over simplifying the problem. “Clean code” is also not a formally defined concept, which could include anything and everything.

I’ve had more performance problems due to hacky workarounds, themselves necessary because of lack of foresight during development, rather than a slow abstraction (in fact, I don’t think I’ve ever seen the latter)

There are more varieties of accents inside London than across the entire US. You understood their point, no need to be pedantic.

Plenty of non Chinese brands are on the EV train now.

I can buy an Alpine that it is, in every conceivable way, better than the cheapest VW EV (while being a bit cheaper, or the same price). How is this not a problem with German manufacturers specifically?

And why is it so hot, I wonder

The day Germany gets the Internet I’m sure we’ll be served as well, but in the meantime French / Belgium / NL already have this.
