I firmly believe greed comes from two thought processes: A sense of fear, or a desire for authority. I don’t know if wealth will make you a monster, but it will certainly show what you really are.

Agile has poisoned software development to the point where it’s fine to ship shit products that can be fixed post-release, which of course gives stakeholders and execs the reasons to tie performance and bonuses to shipping, as opposed to routine stable operations.
I don’t know if going back to Waterfall is the right fix, but something has to change. Shipping crap is the new normal. If programmers organize to fight for better wages and conditions, we absolutely must fight to hold management responsible for code quality. Get us additional hours for unit and behavioral testing, assessing and tackling technical debt, and so on.
We’re getting awfully close to another World War given ongoing affairs in Ukraine and the Middle East…
Tabasco is alright if you like Tabasco, I usually go for something hotter where I can, tabasco as a last option when my options are short.
That being said, they used to make a bomb ass chipotle sauce.
It really is. If you’re white and male.
I paid off my college loans in full in 2019.
I deleted my reddit account.
I’m the first person in my family to get a University degree.
I’ve been sober for four years now.

I’m in no rush to play Alan Wake 2, if Control 2 goes to Ebin Aids Store I’ll be in no rush to play it either.
Local takeaway 100% of the time. You don’t get chain pizza, your employer does it for you.
Not just any writer: Craig Mazin of Chernobyl and The Last of Us fame.
They literally rushed the current gen out to get ahead of the raytracing fad when it was still nascent, and now Nvidia doesn’t give two shits about it to go play with Gen AI in traffic. This is the first time the industry was in a stare with PC, and they blinked first.
I still don’t see what Raytracing has done for gaming besides marginally better reflections at a greater cost to the consumer. We’ve solved all our photo realism and lighting problems with PBR.

Lotteries are no different than stepping on people. They have to buy into the process, but the amounts allocated from lotteries for education or other grants is outpaced by what is given up in prizes. And many lotteries engage in games and mechanisms to keep people in the feedback loop of pouring money in. It’s a tax on the stupid and the poor.
