I do wish Windows Phone had taken off better.
I had a job once that issued me a Nokia Windows phone and I was stunned by how much I actually sort of enjoyed the experience. Granted all I did was check emails, ACK alerts and message coworkers on it, so admittedly a very intentionally on my part pared down user experience. Sadly Windows phone didn't last long enough to figure out if that was the result of Microsoft, or the result of Nokia.
Writing mods and server plugins for counter strike 1.6 is what got me into it.
Fox Television Studios not cancelling a show right as it starts to get good challenge.
I jokingly suggested a similar crusade against sprints, because the nature of my team's work isn't prohibitively time-boxed either.
Wasn't expecting the people sitting on that zoom call with the power and influence to make such a change to actually agree
Thanks for that!
Dunno, but I would like to know more about your lamp
Chaotic neutral on my work desk, lawful good on the gaming desk. Priorities.
That's not a hot take. That's a damned gospel and I am singing baritone.
Rejected an offer because the work spaces for developers were even worse than open plan.
I am incredibly curious to learn more
I'm not staking out the position that one is objectively better than the other by saying any of this:
I recently adopted neovim and I think it's going to be very hard to make me leave it. On the one hand, I love some of the vscode extensions I've got going, on the other hand, neovim + lazygit somehow just invokes the flow_state() much quicker-at least purely from the standpoint of being in an editor.
What's up with that?
