Turnip winter yet to happen, and even when it did in the German Empire: the people still didn’t revolt


WW2 bombing was much less accurate, and hence more indiscriminate. We see a clear pattern here of targetting energy infrastructure over a long course of time, which in theory should disrupt things like R&D and defense production. Whilst you are likely correct about impact being short lived of each strike, the timescale and specivity of it is unprecedented I believe, likely leading to a much more effective campaign than 85 years ago wrt to military objectives. I’m sure that the people are also now so long suffering (The London Blitz was 9 months or so, Russia has hit Ukraine each winter for the past 3 years) that I’d be curious to know about resolve vs weariness vs preparedness
Has there been any other targetted prolonged campaign that we know of for a more direct comparison that we know of? Military history junkies are going to have a literal field day when the war ends, there are so many lessons and learnings to be had


Yes, history will not be kind to Starmer. But he won’t be Liz fucking Truss
I’ve a DBA who would insist on this being in a dimension table and using a foreign key constraint instead of just a fucking string


We are underprepared in the west for sure. But that’s probably all right. One of the big points from WW1 was that large standing millitaries meant they needed to be used. Armies beget war as much as any other factor. This is why NATO is so important. The collective force of it means that we don’t need to be as prepared. Which has seen unprecedented levels of peace in the west since its inception


Isn’t that just joining the army?


Art of the deal
Trump always backs down, Zelensky should call and see what he’s holding at this stage. Russia has always been the USAs biggest bogeyman, I can’t actually see them pulling out completely
Must be American. Most the world air dries their sheets and hence has a second set

Something with gears. Like a cranked egg whisk. Huge amounts of science went into this, but all of it should be replicable in a few generations of experiment with even bronze working. And it should inspire inventors of the age too


So you can likely earn in another role. The key is to make them believe that you chose to be here, rather than anywhere else. And that may involve lying because management don’t want to hear it’s because of your short commute and relatively easy workload. But, maybe you are there because you think that they are doing good work in whatever field? Maybe they do offer you great experience for your career. Maybe you do have a great team?
And maybe you don’t. In which case it is platitudes time, tell them what they want to hear and volunteer for things more. But also, maybe time to get that CV brushed up too?


They also pissed off a lot of contributors and community members. Tenacity for me!


Ardour is milea ahead on all that anyway. Tenacity is a simple multi-channel recorder. That’s all it needs to be


Tenacity has replaced this years ago. Fuck around, find out!

Logs, logs, logs, you’ll pour over logs anyway. Hands up anyone who has run GraphQL over anything but http? Won’t be many. And then another show of hands please: who’s written a basic request using http tooling instead? Bet there’s tons!
They threw away loads of tooling for the sake of vanity imo


Calling for the government to resign and elections isn’t exactly treason. Dissolution of the government is a perfectly ordinary part of democracy in the UK
Just the way he’s put it makes him a total cunt
If only that were true. They are intimately connected and to pretend otherwise is laughable to me
