Thank you for sharing, if that desktop fall could be very dangerous.π
I've always wished for something like this back in the day. What a way to code and play!
Come on don't be silly... we all had a spotter when coding, they made sure to catch the CRT before it fell π
That was for sleeping, so when the programming answer came to you in the middle of the night, you could make the change before forgetting it. π
is this a printer hiding beside the monitor of doom? I'm imagining the paper cuts when it prints and the paper flies directly into the person's face.
how does that guy look so relaxed he is sitting under a giant rock!
Mouse also has antigravity system. Extreme technology.
Too uncomfortable to actually code. Moving that right hand back to the keyboard would take too much effort. I'd just fall asleep.

The business manager at my current job told me during the interview "if it plugs into the wall, it's an IT problem"
95% of the technology in our business is in fact some kind of IT doo-dad, and we have a budget, so I'm not even mad.

so how are you going to explain IT being called for a toilet problem? Iβve legit had this before.
was just asked to fix someoneβs Apple Watch today, and got reprimanded because someone else turned off a switch that was meant to stay on. I really love their logic.

The importance of small steps are NOT just limited to life, but when you learn complicated topic like ML/AI, programming, or any other IT topics, they are the same. You start slowly. You get to know new stuff step-by-step. Each small step will build your confidence and skill set. The important thing is not to give up, keep practising, and not compare your progress with someone else. You got this.
Also applies to solving a programming challenge. Divide and conquer.
And yet, SO MANY organizations ignore that because of "Oh! SHINY!"
While I do agree with the statement, remember also the following:
Do not be afraid to take a big step if needed.
You cannot cross a chasm in two small jumps.

The only oversight in that chart I can see is that Xodo is a paid service/freemium. Only so many things you can do for free.

@alexpostfacto Totally agree. I 100% do NOT approve of ANY subscription based model for software!
I originally saw this chart on the bird shite years ago (attribution is in the lower left) and came across it again here a couple of days ago, and so reposted it. I'm just interested in Adobe losing users to better non-subscription apps.

It's a sunny February morning, but the month means it's winter and the weather will probably change. Better bring the warm waterproof coat.

•I think most Americans can handle the YYYY-MM-DD formart without it breaking our brains but the European DD.MM.YY format just makes no sense to us. Putting the day in front of the month just seems absolutely wrong to us, in part because we have never done it that way but also if you are planning an event, in many cases the month is the first thing you want to know, then the day. But you only need to know the year if the event is more than a year away.

•Both DDD/YYYY and YYYY/DDD formats are unambiguous unless one is talking about dates before the year 367 CE and honestly that seldom comes up in most everyday contexts.
Today is just the 32nd of 2023. Shorten it however you like it's still clear.

Panel 2: European logic: DD.MM.YYYY. Man looks at inverted pyramid with large top slab Year and middle part Month balanced on small tip Day. Man says "I can see it!"
Panel 3: American logic: MM/DD/YYYY. Man looks in disbelief at jumbled pyramid with tiny Day tip in the middle.
Panel 4: Man: What the fuck.

The Tentacled Horror
•Alexandra Erin (she/her)
•I think the US format prioritizes verbal clarity when talking about upcoming future dates.
The logic as I see it is: days change more often than months, but verbal communication isn't aided much by front-loading the day, because it usually won't be today's date being discussed when a date is being conveyed.
Putting the month before the day means that if someone starts talking about "the 24th", your brain can immediately contextualize how far immediate that is if you know *which* 24th.
If they start by saying "24th" and then add February or March, you might already have been thinking of the wrong one, and have to correct course.
It makes less sense as a computer data format, but that's not compelling to me as a human.
