It’s well worth reading the entire paper. It’s one of the funniest things I’ve ever read.
I still regularly think about Enema Bag Jones.
The first decision has to be vim/emacs.
There’s a death star on the other side of the fence.
Or to copy something and modify it 30 times.
This seems like a very bad idea. I think we just need more lisp and less AI.
That’s crazy.
Since GPUs got into the TFLOP range I often think of this old magazine cover:

Zero chance this company replaced him with an AI that actually does anything useful.
I was a pretty experienced programmer when I first read SICP, but I still found it incredibly valuable. I’d recommend it to anyone.
I had pretty much the same experience finding the virtual memory settings on a win11 machine the other day. Same 20 year old dialog, now buried 5 more layers deep.
It’s such a good idea. I can’t believe they didn’t think of it sooner.

But you necessarily need to limit the devices and operating systems that are allowed. No custom ROMs, no root access, etc.

It’s buckets of people that had those different lead levels, so it adds up to everyone.
I always would. The only time it becomes a bit ambiguous is if there are two turn lanes, e.g. you’re turning left from the second-to-left lane. In that case I’d usually indicate later, maybe when I’ve stopped or the white line is solid, so it’s clear I’m not trying to change lanes.
I’m probably over thinking it.
If it makes a sound you don’t recognise, use the gun.
If you didn’t cheat that’s actually pretty impressive.
Probably not what you’re looking for, but it just occured to me that Ted Lasso might be the closest modern show to this sort of cosy/wholesome British sitcom.
Also if you want something really on the nose, I seem to remember enjoying Rev:

Edit: bonus recommendation for The Royle Family
To be fair, it still teaches that, but everyone wants to be the villain.
Now I want to try a variant of monopoly where the younger you are, the more turns you have to wait to start the game.
This was on my mind, but then I just watched it yesterday.
