> - groups get renamed for the Nth time in N years. People continue to do the same job, but now the department has an additional "Innovation", "Discovery", or "Leadership" inserted into the title

Sometimes, I wish we name the team ‘Pikachu’ and continue on working. This way, others would know the name does not really matter, so they would stop changing the name. The amount of work to change the documentation and lets others know our team changed name has caused a lot of unnecessary work.

It won't gonna change how people (mostly management) see the name. I've seen whole empire named after Pokemon, only for another round of restructure that will change teams name to another Pokemon.

While talking to friends at other empire:

> I've been digging around, who are the members of Ludicolo?

> Oh, we've renamed to Felbat.

Very fun and interesting article. I'm currently working in enterprise for around 3 years. I sure am growing technically, but I feel like I learn more about people, communications and bureaucracy here. That comment about budget and mouse is also on track, but with financial stability that working in $ENTERPRISE brings, I can just buy the mouse myself. Maybe some empire will question me regarding the unauthorized mouse, but I can just... ignore... um, talk myself out of the fake urgencies of mouse authorization.

And that's why the fediverse thing is so niche :)

Looks like it's as complicated as a parts inventory system developed in house for a half a million employee company...

It's because freedom and correctness is hard. Yeah, most people prefer convenience and would rather someone be the source of authority to do it for them, but people on fediverse are not those kind of people.

Where do people draw the line between a PKM (which is yours) and team documentation (which belongs, presumably to your team to which you have a transient relationship with)?

Product focused (plans, documentation, snippets) notes for team, people focused (1-on-1, performance review, birthday) notes for personal.

I use `insteadOf` instead of ssh alias because my workplace use GitLab orgs. So instead of typing the full URL like:

  git clone gitlab.com/acme-corp/project-name
I could use:

  git clone work:project-name
But this kinda broke `includeIf` since it store the `insteadOf` remote url directly. I then had to convert existing repositories to use the `insteadOf` url.

I wrote a little bit about it here: https://bentinata.com/log/git-insteadof-includeif

I get a lot of shit for saying this, but I agree completely!

I don’t think there’s anything inherently wrong with eating animals. But I have a particularly carnivorous friend who thinks hunting is for sociopaths, because he “loves animals”.

If I wouldn’t harvest it, I won’t eat it. And I definitely would be too timid to slaughter a freaking cow lol

bentinata · 10 months ago
I think it's a matter of hygiene and speed. Sure I could butcher a chicken, maybe have a shot at a bigger animal like a goat or cow. I've seen it multiple times since I live in a country that regularly do animal sacrifice. But I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to do it as clean or as fast as the usual butcher.

It does feel different from market-bought meat though, at least for me.

Hi. I'm Ben. Been looking to work on environment projects, and/or project that is using rust. Something that can either make a positive impact for a lot of people (too naive, I know), or something that hone my technical skill. But since I'm a parent now, my primary focus been stability. I have accepted the fact that dream job is called dream job for a reason.

Even though the methods is simple, the way the author visualizing it is really neat.

As someone who haven't been using Python extensively since college, and mostly use TypeScript and Kotlin at work (and little bit of Rust for hobby projects), that's a lot of typing features. It feels like for the past few years typing been getting more attention. Good to see.

I used to hate TypeScript (circa 2016) because it kept bugging me with typing errors, and I used to sprinkle "any" to shut it up.

Things that happen when xe stopped to use NixOS
bentinata · a year ago
Haven't read xe article for a while. Why does xe move away from NixOS? I'm pretty sure I read blog about nix being best container builder a while ago.
