And you have bootstrapped an B compiler on that?

It happened to me when I was configuring IP geoblocking: Only whitelist IP ranges are allowed. That was fetched from a trusted URL. If the DNS provider just happened to not be on that list, the whitelist would become empty, blocking all IPs. Literally 100% proof firewall; not even a ping gets a pass.
Technical debt means how much work it takes to update legacy solution to a modern solution. E.g. each time a new C++ standard is used, all code written with the old standard should be checked. The work time needed to do this is paying up the technical dept.
Now, if you are lazy, and didn’t clean up the code, used the easy and sloppy solution, next time you have twice the work to be done. So the dept gets worse, if you do nothing.
I touched a piece code that was +10 years old, according to git. Should I be scared? Will my change it survive??
I had a similar debacle, when I managed to corrupt a btrfs file system to point it wouldn’t mount again…
I was preparing it to have as my main system on bare hardware. I had accidentally mounted the same block device simultaneously in the host and guest: kablamo silent corruption and all 5 hours of progress lost.* :(
*shred the guest VM, host was ok.
On arch, UEFI boot vars are mounted at /sys/firmware/efi/efivars
. It’s unwise to rm -rf
them…
GameBoy Color with a single game: Pokémon Red.
Next time I was able go to the shop they had upgraded to GameBoy Advance and no GB/GBC games were to be never found again. It was the best/worst thing I ever got. :'(
I have bought a few ukranian beers if that matters. Every time I take a sip I feel their pain and terror. It is not a nice feeling. I think there is some quantum entanglement or just fear of losing your ground.
The Putfuck re-started a 1940 era war by breaking their former promises, in a time period the entire humanity is burning up due to our collective failure to take care our future.
The time and resources wasted by this war has no number and no cost other than denying our own future existent on this blue marble. The clock is ticking, and my only hope is that humanity survives, despite its arrogant and violent nature.
Me:
I read the entire article, thanks.
It gets more cursed the more you look at it:
A lot. That’s the answer.
