What is the other half of Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, if they are only half guys?

War was too difficult as the other side kept shooting back. This is cleaner as there are still consumables to produce and sell.

Kind of saying the quiet part out loud there about the population growth. It’s about extermination of an indigenous people by colonists - same old story.

Obviously George has lost his goddamn mind on drugs again, but isn’t having an apologist for the slaughter of children actually pretty incredible casting for Herod?

There need to be non-proprietary protocols for basic actions like this. In tech we’ve been asleep at the wheel since the 90s (see: only just getting ipv6 into production now, http as universal application protocol)

We should just scrap the farmland as it could be better used for data centres.

I wonder how many actually Nazi festivals they’ve taken action against. Guessing a number somewhere close to zero.

Sending files between radio’d devices remains the most hideously bad application versus the level of technology we are on.

To be fair I used to make entire features like this and then get R# to move the classes into separate files at the end. Guess I don’t like to organise too early, before the code has found it’s true form?

I wasn’t actually in competition with them at least, as they were all post-docs I know. The masters never did anything for my career in software that starting a year earlier wouldn’t have done better, except that the state paid for my ales.

Weird how much he’s obsessed with the Culture, except for all of the social permissiveness like being able to transition sex, and also utterly unwilling to use any of the vast resources at his disposal to create a post scarcity society instead of hoarding more and more for himself.

Having a conscience is more lethal to them than the children they are “fighting”.

Can confirm a Masters is pointless. Especially when everyone else at your table in the pub has a PhD.

That’s no way to talk about Iggy Pop and Lou Reed!

The rest of us should go strike over this tbh.

A war is traditionally when two sides are fighting, George. Ask Frankie Goes To Hollywood.

Are mixed forests what’s supposed to be in this landscape? There’ve been similar problems with moorland peat bogs burning like this in Yorkshire and Lancashire, but I thought those hilltops had kind of always been like that.

Maybe they thought he was Greenpeace?

It comes in dollars?

Wow, but imagine if they hadn’t sold the Royal Mail for £1.
