the last time i checked it wasn’t.

At this rate by 2030 hating Linux will classify as war crime

that’s why duckduck gang 4 life

there is also an issue with the scope of the whole system. it is way too big and too tangled to function smoothly.

But there’s a catch - those buses are self-driving Tesla’s workshopping roadrage simulation.

It is not Peyton’s problem that they have an exploit. Should’ve thought about it upon planning the event.

event ain’t gonna happen by itself

my country went through it - i don’t remember energy shortages but the food shortages were real. That systemic mismanagement over decades with fudged performance figures up and down piled up so high it’s a miracle things weren’t worse. Took a solid decade just to clean this mess

that word is so loaded for me - literally every time someone uses it regardless of context I remember The Godwinns theme and feel really old.

Wired clickbait, sigh

I see. Thanks for clarification. I never worked with COBOL myself but have couple of folks on the team who worked with COBOL in banking back during 2000s who still have full-on vietnam flashbacks over it. I guess the COBOL they worked with was an older iteration than you described.

my only experience with it was for code cleanup - since those tools save me from bitching and moaning from the team - let it rip

Even last year I would’ve said “hold ya horses, pardner” but these days I think you’re onto something. The way big tech keeps on screwing everybody while other parts of the economy actively sink is concerning.

You sir are hardcore.

goddamn these provocateurs!

It has its moments, but you are absolutely right - 25 years ago Wired would’ve torn modern Wired a new one for their clickbait speculative thinkpieces.

Is this even legal?

you can maintain make-believe “all good nothing to see here” for only so long until the reality becomes undeniable. given that cost of living crisis is already running roughshod through the economy - it’s not a good sign and it will get worse.

Its Freemium, at least it was like that. Using COBOL should be regulated by Geneva conventions at this point.
