Some plans less so than others.
Also, I like this framing of users as the enemy. Matches my experience, really.

It just irritates the fuck out of me when people write an obvious swear word but either omit letters or “censor” them with eg. *, like that somehow makes it not swearing even though EVERYBODY KNOWS WHAT THAT FUCKING WORD IS.
Either don’t swear if you think it’s so bad, or just write the naughty words out instead of pretending “f*ck” isn’t a bad evil naughty word because you hid one letter like a fucking mentally deficient child.
FUCK.
Javascript bad.
Applause please.
which is something they care deeply about.
They care about quarterly profits. Preventing fuckups of this scale requires long-term effort which is not profitable by itself, it only prevents possible future fuckups, and this is why proper QC etc. aren’t done. Short term profits over everything else.
Well, if the executive leech class wants workers to have bossware, there’s not all that much people can do about it. Can’t just decide to not use it if your employer demands it
And it’s usually the people with room temperature IQs (and I’m talking Celsius) calling everything AI. You know, the type who can’t recognize actual AI pictures and probably also thinks the Moon landings were faked

yeah that tracks.
Oh yeah definitely; a lot of the AI crap out there hasn’t gotten rolled out to the EU yet – some of it because of the GDPR, thank fuck for that.
Naturally I had to try this, and I’m a bit disappointed it didn’t work for me.
I can’t make that “Looking for specific info?” input do anything unexpected, the output I get looks like this:
Some people, when confronted with a problem, think “I know, I’ll use regular expressions.” Now they have two problems.
Right, I must be “very young” if I don’t think that hurling abuse at others is OK.
Yeah, pretty much figured you were one of the people who thought his behavior wasn’t only acceptable but preferable. In other words, an asshole.
Are we pretending that his various and ubiquitous abusive rants didn’t happen, or that they weren’t him acting like an asshole?
He was never likeable. He acted like a huge asshole, which naturally made other assholes look at him and go “see if he can do that so can I”
Neither of them is exactly what I’d call easily likeable
Yeeeaaah you’re supposed to regularly test that you can actually restore your backups, because boy do a lot of companies find out they can’t only after shit goes sideways and to their horror they then realize that they can’t restore some system’s backups because reasons.
Not sure I’ve worked in a company that did that, and frankly even when I was CTO in a startup we didn’t have automated backup tests – mostly because it was still early days and I just manually tested restoring our in-house service when a change was made that would warrant it. N + 1 other things to do besides automating backup tests so I deemed that Good Enough™.
The Usenet post I linked to claims it’s originally from the 1st quarter of 1990, but who knows if that’s accurate or not. I actually can’t find a good source for whether Stumpf is the original author or just the one who posted it to rec.humor.funny.reruns, but it’s usually attributed to him at any rate.
But yeah, fairly ancient by internet standards. I remember first running into it in the 90’s
