But there are doubts: Many systems will have to be rebuilt from scratch, and there are few Linux experts around. kommersant.rudoc5570730 48 17 237 740 Kait airenni Replying to jakluge You can't throw a political enemy out a fourth-floor Linux, though. 11:09 AM 20 Sep 22 Twitter for Android

Microsoft force-feeding Copilot to unwilling developers is the tech equivalent of that weird college hazing ritual nobody asked for. "Here, drink this AI-generated code! It'll make you more productive!" Meanwhile, developers are just trying not to choke on suggestions that are half brilliant, half "let me rewrite your entire codebase using deprecated methods from 2011." The relationship status between devs and AI assistants? It's complicated.

Look, I've been in this industry long enough to know that cursor size is directly proportional to confidence level. Someone out there is writing C# with a cursor so massive it probably has its own namespace. The real question is whether they're compensating for bad eyesight or making a statement about their coding prowess. But let's be real - if a giant cursor on someone else's screen is enough to distract you from your work, you were probably looking for an excuse to procrastinate anyway. We've all been there, staring at our neighbor's screen during a pairing session, silently judging their IDE theme choices and font sizes. Pro tip: The cursor size is inversely proportional to the number of NullReferenceExceptions in their code. Science.

Listen up, children! Gather 'round for tales of the ANCIENT TIMES! Back in the mystical era of VB 6.0, we didn't have your fancy object-oriented programming with inheritance hierarchies and polymorphic nightmares! NO! We wrote pseudo code that magically worked! Just slapped some spaghetti code together, hit compile, and BOOM—functioning software! No encapsulation, no abstraction, just pure, chaotic WORKING CODE! Those were the days when men were men and bugs were features! *dramatically wipes tear* The simplicity! The madness! The absolute HORROR of maintaining it years later!
