Elon Musk on pace to become world’s first trillionaire by 2027, report says
  • I realize that it was dumb of me not giving more context. Sorry about that.

    They talk about one of his posts on X, where he shares his appreciation for an interview between Tucker Carlson and Darryl Cooper.

    Cooper claimed in the interview that the Nazis did not mean to murder so many people when they carried out the Holocaust and killed 6 million Jews during the second world war. Instead, Cooper remarked, Adolf Hitler’s Nazi regime simply was not equipped to care for them – and the podcaster blamed the British prime minister Winston Churchill for “that war becoming what it did”.

    And then:

    The billionaire announced in August that he was supporting Donald Trump as the Republican nominee seeks a second presidency in November’s election. Kamala Harris, the Democratic vice-president, is also running in the election.

  • good luck little buddy, see you in 5 years
  • I'm still trying out different editors from time to time. I always feel like they are lacking in some way in comparison to Emacs. Like, when there's no key binding to focus the list of references, or one cannot navigate to the beginning of a block, or one cannot navigate by subword. Let's not forget sexp. Cannot live without it. Or marks, for that matter. Or proper clipboard history that is properly searchable. It's like the developers has not seen the light yet. Most editors are very mouse driven, and maybe does not focus enough on actual code navigation. I'm biased of course. Though, Helix seems cool.

    Side note: Even though I use Emacs, I have nothing against Vim. Heck, I even use it every now and then.

  • What's the worst way you ever broke production?
  • Table locks can be a real pain. You know you need to do the change, but the system is constantly running queries towards it. Now days it's a bit easier with algorithm=inplace and lock=none, but in the good old days you were on your own. Your only friend was luck. Large migrations like that still gives me shivers

  • What's the worst way you ever broke production?
  • Two things pop up

    • I once left an alert() asking "what the fuck?". That was mostly laughed upon, so no worry.
    • I accidentally dropped the production database and replaced it by the staging one. That was not laughed upon.
  • What search engine do you recommend that isn't Google or Bing?
  • Been using Qwant for maybe a year or so. Recently found Swisscows too. I am not sure if Qwant uses their own index. I remember that they said that they were to create their own index, but the results looks suspiciously similar to Bing. Swisscows for sure runs their own index, and I find the results to be rather good
