I used to use ORMs because they made switching between local dev DBs ( like SQLLite, or Postgres) and production DBs usually painless. Especially for Ruby/Sinatra/Rails since we were writing the model queries in another abstraction. It meant we didn’t have to think as much about joins and all that stuff. Until the performance went to shit and you had to work out why.
365.25*10 would at least get you closer.
Ruby should add 10.years.ago.today
When I was using Ruby (some Rails, but mostly Sinatra, for little web apps and api serving) Laravel was coming up in PHP shops. Which was just trying to be Rails running on PHP from what I could tell.
There were others before that, like CakePHP, but all I remember about that of all the bugs my coworkers dealt with. I was strictly a front end dev back then.
I wonder how many 2 item lists have been sorted that way IRL.

I would thing the plastic lining in that container would probably be high on the bonding list, but I haven’t taken a chemistry class in 24 years.
Saudi Arabia? That’s where most of them came from.
I agree that the West fucked up the Middle East ( though the Soviets didn’t help either).
Browser too, and the whole activeX, and DirectX api system to practically force windows only development.
I’m gonna try this with my son, he knows with way clocks go better than his left and right.
How about Tb (TacoBellium)?
Yup 5-6 floppies and if one failed you could try to go back and copy one, but usually had to start over.
I got the Mac copy of Photoshop 4 from my high school this way with .sit files. It was like second to last floppy that failed (probably an ok AOL disk) and I had to go back the next day and copy it again. But it worked!
Not long after that a friend of mine got a ZIP drive, but it wasn’t SCSI, so it didn’t work with my computer. I didn’t get one until college (essential for a graphic designer in the late 90s).
If you can find a playlist of videos you can download whole lists with ytdlp.
I think KEKA.app supports split archives. Haven’t used it in a while though.
Its marketplace has been really popular in my area. Craigslist has all but dried up for may item types.
But they own Instagram as well don’t forget, and they have bought out many other competitors that we won’t ever get to experience.
Yeah, lack of competition is driving a lot of this. Fixing bugs doesn’t increase their stock value. It doesn’t make the line go up.
Launching products and bragging about profits makes the line go up (especially just before a quarter or monthly report is due).
AT&T/Bell Telephone was like this for years until they were finally broken up (nominally). When cellphones came out and provided nationwide competition, long distance suddenly became free.
We need to bust up google, Facebook, etc. They have nothing to push them to be better, just CEO egos and investors to please.
I discovered a legit bug in the handling of switch statements I a for loop in Actionscript 2 way back when Flash was still a thing.
Until I finally killed my blog about it last year, it was the only result other than my post on the adobe site around the same time. I don’t think it ever got fixed, but didn’t keep following after the iPhone finished off flash.
Yeah plenty of well off liberal New Englanders have them around here. There are big Facebook groups about them and all kinds of online hype/bullshit (like everything at this point) about longevity, allergies, intelligence, etc.
They don’t shed as much, but the less they shed the more they need grooming, or they end up with mats and tangled.
The weather in New England and upper New York is very much like German weather, and sometimes worse. We’ve had snow on the grounds since the 30th of November and it’s only barely reached 0C in the last week.
It was -15C a couple nights ago at roughly the latitude of Rome, next to the ocean too. And only about 50km northwest (inland) it went down to -25C.
This has been a colder December than average for the last decade, but we have mountains that regularly get meters of snow each winter, and they are way lower elevation than the alps too. Also as we all know the last decade has been stoopid warm.
Mt Washington has measured the highest wind speed in the world.
