@quixoticgeek @idnorton @stefano in a previous job we got acquired and spent a chunk of time working out what would be needed for a major pivot. As a team we came back with “this can’t be done in less than a year”, but Project Management stepped in and said “well, if we do all these things in parallel it could be as little as six months”.
I quit a little over a year later, nothing had been shipped. My understanding is it went live a few months after that.
Today, in incredibly petty things I’d change if put in charge, I would outlaw Brands. No more of one company having different lines of products to hide behind and vary pricing around. You may be a Company, but that company has a name and a logo, and they must feature prominently wherever you’re selling a thing.
Fuck up your reputation with a terrible product? Bad luck. You should have made a good one instead, no rebranding to throw people off the scent.
@bob @marquisdegeek I see your beer barrel urinals and raise you some mad horses. (Despite appearances, not generated by a machine, because that didn’t exist when I took this photo)
@mhoye @solderandchaos this is the best thing I’ve seen all day, absolutely losing it here.
@edbilodeau @misty I dread to think what cursed combination of features resulted in that. Presumably if it were allowed Frontpage Extensions would be automatically enabled or something.
I have watched a lot of ER over the last week while being ill and I think my favourite bit is the music they roll out everytime a moment happens between Doug Ross and Carol Hathaway. It’s only ever used then, like they wrote a theme tune just for their messy relationship.
I have been reduced to drinking coffee made from Costa beans because that’s all the local Tesco had in stock for delivery. Easily the blandest coffee I’ve had in some time, they say it has “legendary caramel notes”, and I can only assume they’re using the “a thing that can’t be proved but has been mentioned over the ages” definition of legendary there.
This is exciting. Probably won’t jump in just yet but DP alt-mode is the thing that’s been preventing me from running Asahi on my laptop as macOS slowly circles the drain.

Once again made the mistake of looking at The Orange Site. The first response to a developer making a large donation to an open source project that helped them become rich was, broadly, “why would he do that? He had no obligation to under the license terms.”
Well, I have no obligation to want to punch you in the face but I do feel mighty inclined towards it.
Day 3 of dying on the sofa. Feeling somewhat better today and so bored of being stuck inside. I wasn’t made to spend days on end vegetating in front of the TV.
Have moved on from The Pitt (I finished it, great show) to starting ER over from the start of the umpteenth time. Proper comfort food TV this.
