https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5905354/ The only European comedy title out of the British Islands that ever made me laugh (and continue to watch it). Not that there's a wealth of European non-comedy titles that ever made me continue to watch them after the first 5 minutes. 10 if in a super-good...

Then I will continue working on my open source data-curation project: https://github.com/aquarians/Public/tree/main/Aquarians So far the only goal I expose in the open source code is to ensure the accuracy of data. Horribly hard in it's own if you ask me, and that's only the beginning into a...

Don't argue with that. For me is the difference between living here: Or here:

Programming (in a corporate/professional setup) is one of the crappiest and most horrible jobs you can choose. The level of effort you have to put in and the stress on your physique and psyche is comparable to working on a marine platform. Not just any marine platform but a burning marine...

Allright, I'll try it. Just coze I have the capacity to buy Doesn't mean I have the slightest shame in slaughtering all around in this, while saving some money, if it has the capability.

See my "IAR 80" post on that.

Industria Aeronautică Română model 80. Was a 2nd World War aircraft designed and produced here, much like Dacia Logan now: I paid $5000 back in 2009 for a brand-new basic model with 5 years guarantee. (Think of basic models like basic beer, If they don't kill you at least they carry you...

... for cheap? Anyone can provide an offer at least in the range of historicaloptiondata? Guy behind the site is prone to outbursts of rage or ghosting (not talking to you anymore, you don't exist - not the worst though). I fear his worst, getting banned to buy his "soup" anymore. I imagine...

Also choice of beer ... I was tempted by this: 5 liters for $1.5 bucks. But went for the regular, a single bottle more expensive than the whole pack above:

Another round in the making ...

World being shit is why it's an "up-or-out" choice. If it wasn't Agile, it would be something else. It's not the problem: Agile today, Waterfall yesterday, funk knows before that or tomorrow. It's not the solution: retire if you have the money. It's the setup: we're funked or was once funcdked...

This is sort of a typical meal I'd eat with my peasant grandparents, though almost never for dinner, when proper meal was prepared. 99% percent of the time I remember eating this I was in a corn field, plowing weed or something. Sort of a fast-food on-the-field. Well of course you can eat this...

No substitute to owning your own data yet. Anyways. See "Salad" post on the "Romanian Cuisine" thread in Chit Chat.

Fuck the Cloud. Fuck Google. Fuck them all. I sent myself a picture from my phone through Google Mail 3 times already. Perfectly sent and received by mail as notifications show on my phone. No trace whatsoever of the data on the PC next to me, same Google account.

You want to know what's going on? How things work? MALICE! Start substituting that for the reason of why things happen and you'll start to get how the world works.

Know what? Back in 1984 when I was cheering "Hail Ceaușescu!" and right now in North Korea when people say they hate capitalism and Americans, the lie was more transparent than the world of corporate software development today. The amount of doublethink and posturing makes Orwell's 1984 look...

Use case: a developer is assigned to work on a high profile project and by definition, a very difficult one. Even understanding the problem is a hard task, let alone come up with a solution. Do you think this ever deterred geniuses from writing code? A lot of code. A framework? NEVER IN THE...

I would have liked to point you to a classical reference, Benji Smith's post on joelonsoftware forum: "Why I Hate Frameworks" around 2005. Some of us were around and active on Internet forums back then too! In fact Elite Trader is a lot more like the joelonsoftware forum than modern alternatives...

Let's start with a simple case of "frameworkitis". Frameworkitis is a brain disease that affects software developers and manifests a lot like the Stockholm Syndrome. Original developers are almost always pure evil (terrorists). But true evil develops once their former victims fall in love with...
