Freedom of religion also means freedom from religion. If legal and moral standard of society are dominated by the tenets of one religion, that’s not freedom of religion.
You can have your faith, so long as you stop forcing it down other people’s throats.
I pointed out that your JOKE was shit. You’re the one who started calling me names, so don’t lecture me on twisted knickers.
Wow, you have even less of a sense of humour than the average German.
Enjoy your two-ingredient Fleischsalat.
I’m off by one, you’re off by one - shall we split the difference and I’ll overlook that even being merely technically correct I’m still closer than you, who’s both technically and objectively incorrect?
C’mon, no cop is going to give you that deal.
The recipe you’ve linked has more than two ingredients. To say that it’s ‘mayo on sliced sausage’ is misleading. We Germans are a smidgen more sophisticated than that.
What’s giving me dementia is the fact that so many Americans want this guy to be president. Again.
The difference is, Devops isn’t a bubble that everyone is waiting for to pop. I’ve been in that field for over ten years now, and properly implemented it is a net gain for everyone who does it. The reason companies are falling over themselves trying to hire ‘Devops’ is because they still haven’t properly cottoned on to the concept but are afraid of falling behind. And yes, I can absolutely attest to the fact that Devops is a tough market to hire in at the moment, that there are a lot of places who don’t have the first clue about what Devops really is, and - similarly to Agile - think they can add some buzzwords to their toolchain and call Bob their uncle. And there are a lot of candidates who somehow acquired a Devopsy title in all that chaos, but all their CVs have are tech buzzwords, and when you interview them they’re clueless. That doesn’t change the fact that Devops is a solid concept with high benefits for those who understand it.
AI, and more specifically GenAI and LLMs - is more like crypto, in the sense that people are trying to get rich from it without having the first clue what it is. It’s this shiny new thing that everyone is rushing to get on board with, but I have yet to see someone propose a use case that actually makes sense, couldn’t be implemented better without AI, and is a net gain for those using it. Right now it’s all this nebulous bullshit, everyone just slaps their own coat of paint onto ChatGPT and calls it a day. Useful AI-adjacent concepts like Big Data and Machine Learning have been around for much longer than the tooling underpinning the current hype, and already have a lot of very valid use cases.
By the way, I work with a bunch of high aptitude Devops engineers and none of them are thinking about adding AI to our pipelines, not even to pad their CV.
So not only do they want AI to take your job - you also won’t be able to get another job if you don’t wholesale buy into this shit.
I love the future.
Sometimes good enough is good enough.
Jokes can still be dumb and unfunny.
Strange how I’ve been using wired headphones with my phones until two years ago, even though I haven’t had a phone with a headphone jack since 2017…
I have one Lightning-to-Jack adapter that was included with my old iPhone 8, and two pairs of EarPods with Lightning plug that were included with subsequent models.
Besides that, the claim was that the headphone jack was removed to force people into buying AirPods. But that claim falls down when there clearly were other, non-Bluetooth options.

They are extremely relevant, culturally and historically. They broke new grounds for music, and a lot of today’s music would simply not exist without the Beatles, or some of their contemporaries. That alone means they’re not overrated.
However that doesn’t mean everyone has to love them. It’s possible to recognise their relevance without worshipping them.
The only reason headphone Jacks got taken away was so you’d be forced to buy Bluetooth solutions. Like AirPods.
Totally. That’s why they never made adapters and never included cabled earphones with lightning plug. It was AirPods or nothing.
How old are you? And doesn’t your second question contradict your first?
If you were being serious: iPhones have had headphone jacks until 2016, the iPhone 7 was the first to come without one.
I believe it was for waterproofing. One less port means less sealing, making it easier to improve the waterproofing of the phone.
I remember Battlefield 2 being a prime example for that. Not only did its performance improve once I added a discrete sound card, it also sounded much better.
