What was "the incident" at your work place?
Reply in thread
I used to work at an accounting/consulting firm who were dead set on writing business applications in VBA within Excel. The code was embedded in the notebook, and to distribute the software was sending the latest version of the Excel file. This made version control virtually impossible, and we would instead combine our work manually.
I cannot recommend having tech-illiterate people lead software projects.

A great disturbance in the Fediverse
I’m fine with Windows 10 for now, but when its no longer supported I will have to either use an unsupported OS, replace my (perfectly good) PC or switch to Linux. I know what I’ll be choosing.

TIL Western media can be held legally accountable for its role in the Gaza genocide
How is an article labeled “Opinion” ever a thing you learned? This is not fact. Post this literally anywhere else instead of trying to disguise your opinion as fact.

Taylor Swift earns in ONE show what you earn in 283 YEARS
The article doesn’t really specify, but it looks like they’re pretending she keeps all the money to herself. Weird comparison.

TIL George Harrison (Beatles) funded The Life of Brian (Monty Python)
IIRC he took a second mortgage on his house to fund it. He also has a cameo in the movie.
Harrison and Eric Idle were good friends, and Harrison even appeared in Eric Idles Beatles parody movie.

Zelenskyy says Ukraine plans to indefinitely hold Russian territory it has seized

Very unlikely outcome, and hopefully not a goal for Ukraine.

Lars Løkke Rasmussen i video: 'Jeg har en besked til vores amerikanske venner'
Reply in thread
Jeg er normalt ikke særligt stor fan af Lars Løkke, men jeg synes at dette budskab fra regeringen og og udenrigsministeriet belyser problemerne ved den amerikanske attitude til Grønland rigtig godt. En kort og effektiv besked.

Håndboldlandsholdet banker Tyskland og vinder OL-guld
Sikke en kamp! En velfortjent guldmedalje mod et tysk landshold der slet ikke kunne følge med.

Powertoys: "Run" was my favorite.
I’ve never heard of PowerToys Run, but it looks like Spotlight on MacOS but for Windows. Is this correct?

[2024-08-04] OL i Paris dag 10
Hvordan er udsigten til danske medaljer ved at være?
Badminton herredouble er en mulighed og Viktor Axelsen ser også flyvende ud. Begge håndboldhold har chancen, men der ligner at kun herrelandsholdet har niveauet det kræver.
Hvad er der så tilbage? Banecykling?

Magnus Carlsen skrev kontroversiel VM-historie [delte guldet med modstander]: 'Skakverdenen er officielt en joke'
Vanvittigt at FIDE ikke har en regel for at afgøre et uafgjort mesterskab. Mange turneringer benytter sig af et “Armageddon”-system hvor den der spiller sort vinder hvis spillet ender i remis, men til gengæld har mindre tid.

When it's meant to be

I used YouTube tutorial to learn a few basic openings. GothamChess has a bunch of videos on different openings, where he goes through the main moves as well as a few variations. He’s definitely not for everyone though - he’s very much primarily a YouTuber/streamer and a chess teacher secondarily.

Kommuner tjener mere end nogensinde på parkering
Umiddelbart er jeg for ethvert initiativ for at få færre biler i midtbyerne, men jeg synes stadig at de der bor der bør have mulighed for at parkere en bil. Jeg så dog hellere at det blev lettere at komme ind til byerne med offentlig transport og cykler/mindre transportmidler så der var et mindre behov for gadeparkering.
