    • Single-digit million lines of code (5M, let’s say)
    • Somewhere between 100 and 1000 engineers working on the same codebase
    • The first working version of the codebase is at least ten years old

    Things like this is where the company can save money by scraping it and start from scratch, this time doing it right.

  • Gmail is a messaging platform that optionally supports email, change my mind.

  • A weird bee.

  • I guess it dependson how you store it?

    Yes, funny, but methane falls apart if exposed to UV light. Then again, glass blocks most UV...

  • I don't think even the UK wants Trump.

  • And God help you if that backlog of 51 man-years has grown to 70 after a year because of the technical debt you introduced trying to go faster.

    The joke is, i had to explain the concept of "technical debt" to the "supercoder" that did most of the programming in my last company.

    He was a great guy otherwise tho.

  • The?

  • I'm so sick of this "moving fast" mindset. The result of which is my newsletter being full of security hole and hacked.

    What matters is how fast the team can collectively write, test, review, ship, maintain, refactor, extend, architect, and revise the software that they own.

    Ah, really? Are you sure that's what matters?

  • Please remove the '!important' statements in your CSS, it makes the site unusable for me.

  • The side is falling off.

  • Set a usage scenario (Desktop, Gaming), decide if you want rock-solid or fancy new features, then google it. And add the word "beginner" if you're new to linux.

  • I use Arch btw.

  • Can MS be sued by EU for this? There was the thing with USB-C, because E-waste, and now the most used Desktop-OS says "just throw your PC away" for a not really needed (and artifically defined) requirement.

  • Generally maybe but for apps specifically, it's the default choice of IDE, Android Studio, bundling tons of libraries for added functionality bound to Play Services.

    Which would probably be illegal in EU now, if any judge had the tech see-through for it.

  • Spill the beans, so others can avoid it.

  • Well, here's the story: The old HP MuFu finally caved in, so dad was going to the local multimedia retailer. I told him to get a Brother Ecotank, since i have to support it. But the store only had HP MuFu, so he got a HP MuFu that is even worse than the old one, despite being a laser printer instead of an inkjet. And the f*cking toner cost a whole 140€.
