Management said that writing tests takes too much time and eats into the time that could be used to write features for the app, so they decided that we're not writing tests. They were always green anyhow

Yeah, although without the cool space station and cyberpunk-ish tech. I doubt we'll get that far.

we aren’t going to science up a magic bullet to save us from the epically irresponsible actions of our epically irresponsible species.

In-fuckin-deed. All the talk about "carbon capture" schemes makes my skin crawl.

Well it's either that or delusional parasitosis that makes my skin crawl, but anyhow.

While the network service is designed to only accept commands that start with “wl” or “nvram get,” ONEKEY found that the restriction could be trivially bypassed by injecting a command after shell meta-characters like ; , & , or, | (e.g., “wl;id;”).

Whenever I feel like I'm a terrible programmer, I remind myself that there are vast amounts of confident coders out there being paid for code with idiotic mistakes like this and they have no intention of getting any better at it

It'd be funny if they were eg. Revolutionary Socialist Party and Socialist Revolutionary Party, or Communist Party of India and Indian Communist Party. Now it's just… well, two parties with very different names ~~and different politics (socialism ≠ communism)~~ (edit: see reply comment re politics of the RSP)

Same with flying cars. At least with regular ground cars you won't have a car come crashing through your wall if you don't live on the bottom floor – although I'm sure some bright spark has managed to do that with a regular car, it takes real dedication to stupidity to manage without a flying car. Or if someone cuts you off in traffic, they're usually coming from either your left or right side, not from above or below too

The movie that this is from is 26 years old.

Well fuck.

In the same vein:

Definitely not no, I was more just wondering whether this is actually something that's happening over on Reddit
