#Blakes7 Series C, Episode 07 - Children of Auron
TARRANT: Here, try her with this. Should snap her out of it.
VILA: That stuff would snap an asteroid out of orbit.

One thing governments who are too afraid to ban X, even temporarily, should consider, is the robustness of systems that rely on it. It should be possible for things to continue, albeit less efficiently for a short period, without a specific social media platform. With that in mind, it would be prudent, and send an important message to social media owners, to stress test by turning off X for scheduled days and weeks, so that the country asserts democratic independence from foreign billionaires.
Unpopular opinion on software development
Yesterday, I came across CI cultists.
They were preaching one should merge in main multiple times a day.
Quite frankly, I associate this behaviour to lab rats compulsively clicking the button to get gratifications (please don't do that to rats).
I think developers should refrain from becoming merge junkies. Code review is essential for good code quality. Automated tests suck at detecting logical errors, security vulnerabilities, and even decent code coverage.
Also, I believe pair programming is absolutely not a strategy to allow continuous integration. Everybody involved in the development process is drunk on their own bullshit reasons they made up to justify their poor design. Either the code review should be done by someone else, or the developers should sober up for a fortnight before code reviewing their own code.
PS: I am a software developer. I get drunk on my own bullshit as well.

Mit #DHL GoGreen Plus habe ich für 3,79 Euro in den letzten 12 Monaten angeblich 7 kg CO₂ vermieden. Das kommt mir nicht wie ein gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis vor. Ich sollte mehr bei Amazon bestellen.
#Blakes7 Series B, Episode 03 - Weapon
RASHEL: What do you think's out there?
COSER: How should I know? I don't care as long as it stays there.
