I learned not too long ago that SSDs lose data if they don’t get keep getting power… Not sure how true that is, but if true, pretty awful.

I remember buying a laptop with a blue-ray drive. That was at least 10 years ago, and I never used it, other than holding Call of Duty (the OG) for half a year, then I put it back in its box, and that was the last time I held a CD as well (maybe a DVD? Potato / Tomato).
Good riddance, as SSDs were up and coming, which sped up USB drives as well. (yes, yes… They still have a use, just not for me, at all).

I would argue that you’d need Publically Traded Companies, and thus Stocks, and thus a Stock Market, and also Stock Exchanges to be able to form a Capitalism.
Of course, “private ownership of the means of production” is an important aspect as well.
People still fall for the “generational” bait?
The American generational names only exist because the person who gets to name the new name get a ton of cash to spread the definition, even though those definitions are completely arbitrary.

I like the AI image more. Why? Because this “flat and colorless” trend of Windows 8 going forward has been a fucking curse. Everything is flat and colorless now :(
I’ve read some comments here, and I can agree that the generated image is too complex, but the original design has gone too bland for my liking.

Eh, I mean… Boo! AI Bad!
NostraDavid@programming.devto Learn Programming@programming.dev•i want to learn/use functional programming language3·18 days agoIf you want to learn FP for the sake of learning FP:
Learn you a Haskell is a great start.
Now, something to know about my opinion:
- I think Haskell is great.
- I think Haskell’s tooling is pretty doodoo.
So, you could use Haskell Playground or something like repl.it to run Haskell in your browser. This should save you on a confusing setup.
