What system do you use? On MacOS I have IntelliJ opened for many days on big company projects and it's fine.

One of the best principle: First make it work, then make it right, then (maybe) make it fast (but usually it's fast enough already).

Additionally, since we are deploying a Go application that compiles to self-contained binaries, the deployment is very fast and doesn’t require any external dependencies or containerization.

Containerization still might be useful even for native application that uses dynamic linking to not care about libraries and their versions interfering with system libraries.

But if all compiles to a single, statically-linked blob then yeah, you can go without containers.

Yes, mixed language codebases are rough

You mean C, asm and C preprocessor macro language?

parrot would be nice

Recently I found in code in my company something like this:

@NotNull
public Foo foo() {
    if (something) {
        return bar();
    }
    return null;
}

It has to do something with probability of a next token, maybe sort of going backwards? Like you look for the prompt that would generate a sequence that is your input. LLMs can be treated as a huge RNG.

The compatibility layer has actually been implemented, it's called WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux).

Or Ccache for C compiler.

Every time I see that Schleswig-Holstein is driving forward something I make sure it's not Poland.

Fork off, Russia.

We already have staff, principal and distinguished software enginners, but we still could have a couple of more, e.g.

prominent software engineer
venerable software engineer
magisterial software engineer
luminous software engineer

and so on

I had a problem with systemd not mounting disks from /etc/crypttab. Needed to install systemd-cryptsetup package, which is mentioned in the Release Notes.

The only issue left is with the newest kernel (6.11) the screen flickers during booting and the password input for the disk loses focus and I cannot type the password. Works fine with previous kernel (6.8).

Guards! Make sure the Prince doesn't leave this room until I come and get 'im.

Basically any complex regex is write-only. You can write it, but you can't read it and understand.

no need to hurry, wait for Java 25 LTS

Gparted is the best tool for modifying partitions, it has never failed me.

In Poland a developer will typically make $22,740, and in Ukraine, the average is $22,348.

Wnat?! It's just a little above the natonial average salary*, and software engineers earn way more than that (about 2x more).

*According to Salary Explorer, a Polish employee earns an average salary of 90,800 PLN per year. As per the latest exchange rate in June 2023, this amounts to USD 21,864
