  • You can't write them down!

  • It certainly seems so. France and the UK lost so much prestige because of this. It marked a very real end of the British Empire in particular

  • Having seen what the ORM hate leads to. Just use the ORM folks. Far better in the long to do so! Nothing has come close to ActiveRecord imo in Typescript or Python sadly. Unless anyone has a library or two I should check out?

  • Don't forget rule #35 then too

  • Quick invert the deflector polarity!

  • Law 1: stop posting at the nazi bar

  • Great job. 2 hours well spent

  • Our first big lemmy AMA for sure. Must be a few Mastodon ones conducted but anyway, great to see Karim Diané here!

  • I migrated a while ago full time. All my data still in ntfs, bring it on!

  • Demon, so I can kill them, spawn them, or send them signals to die!

  • Yes, I also hope we see more about Lyonel, too good a character to get almost no air time this episode

  • Have also had rat issues in the building in the past. And this one one isnae so wee

  • Not going to happen unfortunately. There have been so many challengers that have failed to usurp. And the bundling and ecosystem with sharepoint is a) exceptionally useful amd b) anticompetitive. It will take a serious legal case to dislodge excel

  • I dunno. Windows 11 sales have been crap. People aren't buying new machines due to it. Relaunch 12 as privacy focussed, AI enabled (but optional), and they could see a bounce. Double down on Office, keep a steady improvement on Azure, and see Xbox as a growth opportunity. Microsoft could avoid the AI slump

    Notice how Apple have not jumped all in. They are anticipating the storm and are well prepared to weather it out
