When I first started my career in 1984, one of the first thing I had to do was to take over a firmware from someone else, at a different company, because he had married a farmer girl in the north of Sweden, and was going to become a farmer instead... He was in his 20s, and I guess he only had 3-5 years of experience, but obviously figured this out.
Some brave soul transcripted my presentation in China ~8 years ago; https://www.zentao.pm/agile-knowledge-share/elephant-in-the-room-niclas-hedhman-225.html
Hilariousas a joke, but in all seriousness the transition wasn't quick enough to create any skepticism/Luddites.

An EU-wide #RightToRepair has been adopted by the EU parliament with 584 votes in favour, 3 against and 14 abstentions. The directive now goes to the council and after it is officially published, member states have 24 months to implement it in national law.
And yes, smartphones are included. #ThanksEU

Don't get me wrong... Microsoft's ability to block legitimate mail, allow spam through, AND still be a giant source of spam for decades is fucking epic. But Oracle is trying their best to compete. Lookout Microsoft, there's a new jackass in town!

I have continued to add #fediverse icons to https://fediverse.wake.st and now have 107 fediverse projects represented. I would love for this to become more of a community resource! If you want to help please come join in at https://codeberg.org/FediverseIconography/pages
Decorators shouldn't mutate the wrapped object(s). Perhaps it can work in many cases, but imagine for instance that the underlying instance is an authorized network connection.
I have not seen the "mutate" approach in any actual code, but I am mostly in the Java ecosystem and not Python.
He is one of the most down-to-earth, pragmatic and insightful person who dares(and is allowed) to speak out against "socialism for the rich" which is the only thing the lefties talk about.

These types are (were? I moved away 7 years ago) common sight in Shanghai downtown areas.
Possibly!
I haven't seen any westerner refer to mangosteen at all. And considering its origin in Malaysia/Indonesia (+PH and I guess TH) with their largely Muslim populations and fondness of the fruit (my 2nd most favorite, after mango) the term is guaranteed not present there.
Quick search on the net leads to a joke; "What do you call a Jewish mango? Mangostein"

I am 3 years into my "own email server" and it has been (and still is) painful. Reverse DNS was one of the thing I remember was hugely important to resolve exactly. Also, remember that you might have IPv6 being used, so don't forget that arm of erverything.
And finally, there are some email systems out there that will never communicate with you, most notably some Outlook servers, for instance Teams invites never reaches me (a good thing, though).
And they don't spy on you, sell your movement data or require permission from brand to be repaired.

THEY HATE YOU. THEY STEAL FROM YOU. THEY ORDER YOU AROUND. THEY HAVE MULTIPLE STANDING ARMIES OF GOONS LIVING AMONGST US.
When will people see it's ALL a con? What will it take? Do they, personally, have to be strung up by their toes before they understand?
VOTING IS CHARADE. IT'S ALL TOTALLY, FUNDAMENTALLY ILLEGITIMATE, AND THEY BARELY PRETEND!
God damn I'm still pissed off from fucking Slave Extortion day.
