They still make DVDs?

Double Dragon Neon has an absolutely banging soundtrack. I wish I could get it on Spotify, but it's only on Bandcamp. Mango Tango is amazing.

It's from "The Mythical Man Month" by Fred Brooks. It was published in 1975. I've seen people make the same project management mistakes that the book discussed for the last 30 years.

I want to like vscode, and the vim bindings make me feel at home. I just don't like it though, I find it so slow for a text editor, and the intellisense seems to be very hit and miss as to whether it's going to work.

Every few months I open up vscode and give it a try, then go back to vim.

Yes, the rest of the world got the extra security restrictions in order to fly. I'm in Europe and we generally have better, faster rail networks than the US (and everything is closer together) so we don't fly as much as Americans.

I used to work in the US about 10 years ago, and the contrast between that and when I visited in the 1990s to go to Graceland is pretty stark. It takes forever now to get through those TSA queues and immigration. You could also smoke on the transatlantic flight in the 90s!

Elite was released in 1983. It was originally made on and for the BBC model B, which had 32Kb of RAM!

The fuck man?

I mean, you can sum it up in a sentence. Is it really that complex?

"People with poor knowledge, experience or skill in an area tend to overestimate their ability in that area."

Is your beef that people tend to conflate lack of skill or knowledge with low intelligence, which is not what the DK effect says?

Just had a thought, what if Putin has taken Prigozhin's family hostage and pretending to take the deal is just a play for time while they rescue them? It would be a great movie plot.

What if the Ukrainians paid Wagner to do this to cause a distraction? That would be pretty crazy too!

What a weird outcome. Putin now looks weak and Prigozhin looks stupid for trusting any deal that Putin could make.

While that's true, those weapons are currently under the control of a fascist government and increasingly desperate despot, so I don't see how them being in the hands of mercs is any worse. At least you know what mercs are motivated by.
