Have u not read clickbait headlines before?

People 'screech' at you because you sound like an arsehole, dude. Try being less up yourself and you might have a better time.

There were some excellent actors and comedians in the UK Office. Unfortunately, Ricky Jervais seems to have been under the mistaken impression that that includes him.

Would you actually rather die? That seems likely to be an exaggeration but I don't know you.

What's the retcon in the hobbit?

Right but whilst the thing is easier with better tools, and indeed the process has changed, to me 'automation' of a task refers to its process being reduced to, at best, a daily 30s review. Tools are... Ways of optimising and changing a process. Automation obviates them. It's a personally lexical stand, you can sanely differ.

So when you hit assembly line I was with you. "That* is automation

Well... Automation usually describes process automation and you've just listed tools. So yeah, I agree, people don't think of them as automation. Because, colloquially, they're not.

That's still rather recently, and there's rather a large stock of 'before people' hanging around. But I agree inasmuch as it'll change as time goes by and one day you'll be right.

In that case, stil reckon a higher proportion ofl Rust devs contribute to Linux than C devs

What's a rust programmer? Someone who's ever written anything in it? If the same holds true for C, probably a higher percentage than of 'C programmers' given how long that's been a teaching language lol
