Well the clickbait certainly worked. Here is the actual article, and this is what the CEO has to say.

No employee ever wakes up and says, 'I'm so excited. I made another penny a share today for Panera's shareholders.' Nobody cares. You don't care whether your CEO comes or goes.

I don't know whether he is a good or a bad CEO, but this article is just rage baiting and you all fell for it.

Blogspam that links to a 'news' website that just regurgitates this reddit thread. Somebody explain to me why is this upvoted so heavily.

Well it cured me from checking reddit all the time, so I count that as a win.

We have purposely built it incorrectly, as a joke.

Perun made a quite interesting video about this. Basically the US, after the end of the cold war, stopped pit production and relied on the many pits they still had laying around. Now they are worrying that old pits might become unreliable and unserviceable which could weaken the US' nuclear deterrence. Because of that the US is seeking to restart pit production.

If there is one thing Microsoft is struggling with it's naming things. I work mostly with .NET and the regular renaming of products is just something you have to put up with. 🤷

I can only hope that the Disco Elysium IP somehow gets back into the hands of the original writers.

Don't bother it is published by Packt. None of the books published by them I have read were any good.

I don't like the new logo; it looks mean. The previous logo showed a charming bird that delivered my mail, the new one portrays a bird of prey clutching a letter, it will probably bite you if you try to retrieve the letter.

I am very skeptical when it comes to machine learning and all the hype surrounding it, but it's not all bad. For example an improved firefox translate would be a nice feature to have. There might also be some usecases for accessibility or adblocking.

Funny, but this is just a piece of fiction. It reminds me of the old BOFH stories.

SponsorBlock has been added to alternative frontends as well, so there is a good chance DeArrow will be ported.

It's Emily now if you did not know.

Now this is the kind of 'news' I'd like to see posted on hackernews just to read their techbro shit takes.

No this is a reasonable approach. Arrowhead are a a rather small company of around 100 people and automating things is easier said than done. They also never anticipated the game to be as successful as it is so at the time it probably wasn't high on the priority list. Now they pay Joel overtime (I hope) and can think about how to implement an automated script to adjust the game.

I agree, but years ago most of us would have said something similar when asked to carry around a device that will track your position everywhere you go. Now we all do that, because smartphones are just so convenient.

The part about changing the login screen seems to be not entirely true. There is also this tool that claims to be able to generate rpm from sddm themes that you then can layer onto your system image. Take this with a grain of salt though, as I haven't tried either method because I honestly don't care how my login screen looks.

Maybe Apple will have their Balmer moment but, as much as I would like to see that, I don't expect it any time soon.

I found some screenshots on a very old fanpage. Apparently it is the actual developers homepage. Credit goes to Lem Jukes for noticing.

Thanks, fixed.

Yes, I also found it here. I have asked the developers for clarification.

Your best bet is to ask developers yourself.

I am using Fedora Kinoite and it has been incredibly stable. I like that I can always rollback to a previous state if an update breaks something. This was a huge issue for me a couple of years ago and I stopped using Linux for quite some time because of that. I haven't had to roll back anything yet but without that feature I wouldn't even consider making a Linux distro my daily driver. Installing software is for the most part pretty easy if you are happy using flatpak applications and toolbox. I like that all the packages that I need for my work or for messing around stay in the toolbox container and won't affect the stability of my system. The only thing I find a bit annoying is that you have to reboot to apply updates. For me, going back to a 'mutable' distro is out of the question.

I use a Nextcloud app called Memories for my photos. I don't know if it is one par with Google Photos but it's good enough for me. There are a few providers that offer managed Nextcloud servers, personally I use the one by Hetzner.

C4 is used at my company, and I am quite happy with it. There is also a open source DSL called Structurizr to create the diagrams in various formats.

I guess that makes COBOL the most Xtreme programming language.

Thanks for the info. I have updated my comment accordingly.

Interesting article, but according to it there where some pilot studies that tried to penalize citizens based on their social score. So I don't think the meme is entirely wrong.

Where are you quoting this from? I could not find any information about a paywall.

They are a popular dish in many parts of Europe. I call them Palatschinken which is the Austrian name, but I think we imported them (like many other "Austrian" dishes) from other parts of the former empire.

It's opensource, strongly typed, works very well on Linux, its neither Java nor JavaScript and there are lots of jobs available; so you wont hear me complaining.

Ever since I subscribed my subscription feed is basically unusable. 👍

r/buttcoin, every time I feel bad about myself I like reading about crypto fails to remind myself that I could have made even worse decisions.
r/noncredibledefense, makes the horror of the war not far from me a bit more bearable

Yes, and while that is terrible it is a completely separate issue not related to the Unabomber. Unless the point you are trying to make is, that we should have let a convicted terrorist go until he killed at least as many people as the US police.
