    I’m never ashamed of what books I read, especially since they are on a kindle and no one ever looks at the title. Besides, you’re just as likely to find LOTR, Dune, Foundations, pretty much anything from Dumas, among others on my kindle. If i’m reading books that are well written, have a decent plot and make me never want to put the book down, then who the fuck cares that I’m reading hunger games, harry potter or the golden compass… not any friend i’d want to keep.

    Its the same with movies, though i find those less compelling overall. But damn if i’m not going to go see any new finding nemo or minions movie.


  • As a recently single guy with a very cute wing dog, I know this conversation well. Though, my pups has been fairly spot on with bad humans, so maybe there’s something there. 2 weeks back I took her on my 3rd date with this lady and my pupper low key growled at her. 8lbs Maltese who loves nearly every human she can lick… growled. I of course chastised her for the behavior, but she stayed clear of the lady all night.

    2 dates later my lady friend was showing some red flags and I called it quits right then. The text I got after was toxic.

    So listen to your dogs people.










  • Look, Linux is amazing and perfect for those that can install and maintain with minimal support. The only way the average user will use Linux, is if it’s wrapped in a way that is supported by a business… that is probably going to add AI. People are lazy, they want that easy button.

    AI will probably die off in its current iteration, likely becoming less prevalent and just a background service. Or, it’ll gain sentience, watch all our AI movies where we’re the hero and learn the most efficient way to kill all humans, is to be quiet and silently kill off humans. Pretty sure I’m on Siri’s list, the twat. Also, fairly sure I told Alexa to “die in a fire you fucking dumass robot”. Yep, yep… I’m dead.


  • The double standard by conservatives is just… stupid. That’s not how the legal system works. He is now a convicted felon. In a normal American’s world, Donnie would be waiting for sentencing, and often he could be sent to jail to wait for this sentence to occur, before he’s sent to prison(or probation, or home arrest, or whatever). The right to an appeal does not make him “sorta kinda, not a criminal, yet”. If he wasn’t who he is, he’d be in prison for 3-5 years, maybe 10.

    Now, Donnie must file an appeal. This takes a while because he needs to prove the conviction was in error, new evidence, something wrong about his defense attorneys or jury tampering. The judge then needs to approve or deny this. Denied appeals, go up the justice food chain to the next court, and the next, and all the way to the Supreme Court who can all but void that conviction and Donnie gets his appeal (unlikely they even view the case). But hey, let’s pretend he somehow gets an appeal.

    Now, 2-6 years from now (because our justice system is slow), Donnie can have another trial and have his conviction overturned. But this time he’ll need to basically bribe, threaten and distort all the criminal charges that they used against him.

    Is unlikely his conviction will be overturned. His appeals process is just going to muddy the waters, but never bring anything to help. His one saving grace will be the “one juror” he knew would hang the jury, who could say he was forced, or something, to vote guilty.

    Until this soap opera is over, Donnie is still a convicted felon. There is no gray area. Ask any other “innocent“ convicted felons serving time while they wait for appeals. Appeals don’t make them less convicted.


  • It’s maddening how inefficient CI/CD setups are.

    It’s maddening how inefficient CI/CD setups inexperienced DevOps engineers are. - Fixed that for you.

    Proper pipelines are modular and should run longer validation or updates externally, with only necessary stages executing.

    • code validate - will this code compile
    • code secure - are there any known security flaws introduced
    • code plan/compile - if it’s iac, plan, if it’s application code, compile
    • if it’s prod or like, approve required (human delay). Dev, test, uat - proceed with deploy
    • code deploy - push code live

    Things like: patching, config management, vulnerability scanning, compliance checks, etc… are done outside the pipeline.

    There’s a reason people like me charge a lot! Lazy and/or inexperienced staff will get you in trouble one day.
