It’s true for leaders in general. The best leaders I’ve had were people who didn’t want to be, and each person I’ve seen focus on “leadership skills” and trying to climb a corporate or other power ladder has been abysmal at it.

Kiefer Sutherland, two last names, bad name for a boxer.
Tommy Douglas sounds like the name of a boxer. Two first names, good boxer name.
I filtered by local as you suggested and saw it pretty quickly. Thanks for the suggestion, that was a very interesting thread to read.
Wait what vegan cat food debate? Cats are obligate carnivores, what insanity is this?
Followed instructions but verification failed, seems like nothing happened except dick got stuck in toaster again. Using Arch, btw.
This is what I do. A pi with Kodi or Jellyfin or similar plugged into HDMI is fine, it doesn’t matter what OS is on the TV if you’re never using anything but the one input.
Wheels are pretty cool
Oh wow, really steep fines, less than one year’s salary of the whistleblowers they fucked over in several cases. Less than the yearly compensation of the executives who should be held criminally liable in every case. Essentially no penalty at all.
Factory patterns are horrible, because they mix config into program code, maximizing uncertainty when debugging
I’ve always hated factory patterns because I find them unintuitive, but I couldn’t articulate why I find them that way or even organize the reasons why in my head. I just recognized them as a frequent source of annoying debug sessions. I envy your ability to concisely convey something like this.
Deprives creators of compensation in what way? It requires a copy or copies of the book to have been purchased in order to lend out. And, the creators of books see dick-all from the sale of the book. Most of the money goes to the publisher, who acts as a gatekeeper to decide which books are worth publishing and de-incentivizes the production of new works. What a dumb argument in addition to being morally reprehensible.
