Usually a sign of multiprocessing/multithreading going wrong, e.g. accessing the same resource without proper locks like opening the same logfile in different processes and trying to write simultaneously. Those errors can be triggered just by reformating the code (or obfuscating in this case), thus changing the runtime behaviour slightly. Hard to find, especially since they’re dependent on the speed/workload of the machine running the code.

The shower head in the picture is a bit unusual because of the two screws on the right where you can adjust the head. If you loosen the one next to the wall the shower head tilts down and faces the wall (which is nice if warm water takes a while and you don’t like a cold shower) and with the other one you could make it spray the opposite wall. So it’s pretty versatile. (Or annoying if the screws can’t be tightened enough)

I’m curious. I’ve seen this exact type of shower (including the taps) only in Australia so far. Is it a common type in other countries too?

They insert sleep(1) and print statements. No shit. I had to fix this in two projects. One was a complete rewrite.

Lol. Thanks. I really don’t care. I’m running linux servers professionally since the late 90s, which means I have seen one or the other WTF. And systemd had quit some of them, especially flooding log files and race conditions. For example see https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/7293. That took more than 2 years to fix. And if people like to downvote my personal experience with it they are welcome to do so. I mean all I did was answering a question why one might use a systemd free distribution. Oh and for the downvoters: SYSTEMD IS MICROSOFTS ATTEMPT TO KILL LINUX! Poettering always was their agent. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lennart_Poettering 😉

My problem with systemd is that since I’m practically forced to use it that it’s flakey in starting services after boot (independent of service and distro). Since systemd I had to install monit to check if all services came up. Didn’t had that problem before. Or I forgot, it’s been a while…

Ah finally another duck. I was thinking if I should also get a toy named cover, because whenever I hear duck my brain autocompletes: …and cover. Because of this shit: https://youtu.be/zMnKNHNfznE :-)

That reminds me of the german version of baby shark: https://youtu.be/olhczmTbB4I

This inspired me to show my rubber duck: https://feddit.de/post/2384302

Basically every backend which needs to connect to external services. Like authentication/authorization for example.

You can book this as a service for only $499/$999 per month from a dodgy website with no company adress but bold claims about time savings. Lol. Source: https://applybyapi.com/#pricing

But the best thing is: you can’t send your open jobs by API. You need to use a rich text editor:

Post your job Upload your logo and use our easy rich text editor to make your posting shine. Unlimited job postings are included with every plan.

Here’s an article about it: https://dev.to/maggiecodes_/how-i-applied-to-a-tech-job-using-a-post-request-193d

The thing that annoys me is the response. It should return status 201 created and the id of the new resource for future delete/update operations. Instead it returns 200 ok and some clear text. Wouldn’t want to work with such an API.

And no field to submit my API for answers? I need a phone and a pdf?
