  It’s probably more cost effective to run Azure Services on Linux machines than Windows machines.

  I was wondering how Signal handles this. Thanks for the info.

  Phone makers: hmm this isn’t selling. Guess we’ll only make phones that look like and do the exact same things as every other phone.

  In my first CS class, the professor announced an extra credit project due at the end of the class. It was to create a formatted terminal calendar given a year from user input. I finished it after learning about condition but before I learned about classes… or functions… or loops… or searching the internet… partially. I searched how leap years worked, but didn’t bother to search for code.

  Anyway, long ass program with each month hard-coded with 7 possible calendars for each month depending on the first day of the week. Lots of copy and paste. Professor was speechless, but accepted it.
