Microsoft can't cloud

Microsoft, the company that lost the cryptographic keys that protected their cloud customers from attackers, now lost important log files.

People go to the cloud, despite the fact that cloud is more expenive than on-premises by a factor of 5, because cloud promises to get operations right so that companies can outsource that and focus on dev.

Microsoft is NOT an operations company at all.

It can't cloud.

As a kid I often wondered how the Germans could allow the Holocaust to happen. In the past year I've heard all the reasons why.

- "I don't want to lose my job"
- "It will cause friction in my family"
- "Both sides are bad"
- "This isn't my issue to speak about"
- "I'm too busy"
- "I don't care about politics"

Fuck Microsoft and Fuck Nadella.

As expected, the 24H2 update installed 'Recall', it can't be uninstalled.

To disable the Microcoft spyware, run this as admin

Can't vouch that all the people you share your screen, code, IP, private details, will disable theirs. consider NOT sharing anything ever again.

Cuando el que se peina con lengua de vaca dice la chorrada de que La Oreja de Van Gogh era la verdadera contracultura no (solo) pretende absolver sus complejos de niño pera básico sino que busca promover un relato en el que "los malos" eran una mayoría opresora

Porque un buen relato necesita épica, y hay poca épica cuando "los buenos" (los suyos) controlaban los medios que programaban la música, los jueces que secuestraban publicaciones o la policía que cerraba garitos.

I remember some people expressing how annoyed they were with people reimplementing standard command line tools in Rust. But here is the reality of such reimplementations: hachyderm.io/@cliffle/11332081…

It isn’t just the memory safety. The reimplementations typically turn out much simpler, partly because of a more high-level language and partly because of usable dependency management.

If you have 20 times less code to maintain, you can do a lot more with it. Adding “nice to haves” like output coloring in C requires considerable effort, improving usability of these tools in Rust on the other hand is a no-brainer. That’s e.g. why duf and dust can present the output better than df and du.

And there are performance wins at almost zero cost. That’s partly due to relying on well-optimized libraries instead of own reimplementations (yes, dependency management again). But taking advantage of multi-threading and modern CPU features seems much easier in Rust as well.

Alright I'm organizing 6 weekly meetings with some very unwilling participants, so I need 6 loaf cake recipes to win them over... any recommendations? 🍰🍰🍰

Flavours so far:
- orange
- white chocolate raspberry
- pumpkin spice
- rozemary olive oil
- ???
- ???

Včera som zase musel vyhadzovať nejakého týpka z bytu. Majiteľka ho tam našla spať, včera prišiel s tým že si tú izby prenajme na dva mesiace. Tak volám majiteľke a ona ho tam nechce. Majiteľka potom volá späť spolubývajúcemu a sama mu hovorí že ho tam nechce, neviem čo budem robiť keď ho tam nájdem znova.

Najlepšie na tom je že začali chodiť už dvaja čo tam nemajú čo robiť a podľa mňa veľmi dôveryhodne nevyzerajú.

Oh dear.
I've been told I need a waited blanket today, because 'a well-known blind influencer' said they're good for blind people. Obviously this person is a follower and has just assumed I have trouble sleeping because I'm blind.

In the same discussion, she tells me that audible have great offers on this week, which will be brilliant for me. Because I'm blind.

I wish people would stop telling me I'm blind (hint: I already know), and secondly maybe not assume that what works for one blind person works for everyone. My blindness may be one of my most obvious characteristics, but it certainly isn't the only one.
For the record I sleep very well and don't listen to audiobooks.
