Software engineering... If you can lick it, you spelled "click" wrong. And that's why your code won't compile, you complete failure.

You bank does't have an app?

My Australian bank has a full-featured app for apple and android. There is very little you can't do in the app.

All the emergency, and stop my card type tasks are right there. I'd have to call for a home loan or something big. But pausing, stopping and cancelling my cards is all right there along with easy transfer etc.

One year there were mint ones in Australia!

I've never seen them before or since. I wish they came back. My wife loved them.

I can't have them. Too much sugar. I'd like to keep my feet please.

Motherfucker!

If I was given an AI interview I would burn that place to the ground. The fucking disrespect.

It's a fucking arrow pointing from big to small. It has a big end that goes at the big number and a small end that goes at the small number.

It couldn't be simpler.

People still can't remember.

I mean I get having trouble with Trig.... But this ?

It's a real reference.

"Inscribed on it is a complaint to Ea-nāṣir about a copper delivery of the incorrect grade and issues with another delivery"

I remember a PC (286) brought in for repair that had blown a fuse in the power supply.
Nothing was visibly wrong, so I replaced the fuse and jokingly said, "Well it's either going to work, or it's going to explode".
I turned it on and the CPU promptly blew itself to bits. Literally "Bang" and the CPU was a few shards stuck to the pins (286 was soldiered directly to the main board).

People make mistakes, that's why we automate things. If a system relies on a human not making mistakes it is doomed to fail eventually.

Saving manually should be a feature, but autoaave should be on by default these days, unless 30+ years of people losing work due to not hitting "save" manually has taught us nothing.

Crashes happen. Errors happen. Pets and children happen. Any major document editor should be able to auto save and replay a very long history of actions.

Improve the system, because you can't improve people with a code patch.

I'm on HFC ... It's all I had before NBN, it's all that's available now.

I'm in inner-eastern melbourne... I hope everyone that had a part in screwwing us all over steps on a Lego taking the bins out and gets garbage water in their mouth.

As an individual with Sensory Processing Disorder, Autism, and ADHD, that works in IT...

This policy is incredibly ableist.

Glad I don't live there.

"Just ask for directions"... have you ever tried asking a french person for help as a tourist? A lot of restraunts won't even serve you, even if you're speaking French.

A massive swathe of current gen devices don't even support it.

It won't be a month.

Microsoft announce changes much smaller than that 4 years out and still have to give extensions.

Have there been? Link them.

Because I call bullshit on that
