I don’t have to be a soldier on anyone’s ethical recursion war, so since the default position is set to kill 1 person, that gets done by the problem itself and the whole thing is solved without me having to do anything.
As a further bonus, now the lever people on the next branches are free to get out of the levels and go release the other prisoners.
Seconding that, made the switch and nothing broke since(almost 2 months now, ^o^) . Can’t say that for windows tho, where not only auto updates meant I had to wait half an hour to use my PC half of the time or disable them and not be up to date with security, but the OS itself was riddled with problems, sometimes just opening Firefox with a few tabs (like 4 or so) would bsod (and I have 16 gigs of ddr4 ram, so it wasn’t a ram problem) not to mention now that I’m on Mint everything is faster, I didn’t have to pay a license key and I know my OS isn’t trying to fight me for my data.
Thanks for your addition! It is working fine for me, but I may have changed the config a bit from the default, don’t remember everything. I have default tiling now and that works really well.
One of the things that is a must for me is 1 panel that shows the windows and apps per monitor. I can’t work any other way, I’m not looking to drastically change my workflow more so than Linux alone already is. My quick Google search said that it wasn’t possible on Gnome 44 and I gave up.
That said, KDE is laggy and unresponsive. It’s also fairly unusable. Everything else besides those 2 is like going back 20 years to desktop environments of the olden days. I just want something modern that works with my workflow.
If you pull the lever after the trolley's first set of wheels has passed the switch but before its last set of wheels has passed the switch then you'll derail the trolley and everyone lives.

That’s also another fun layer of metaphor to this whole thing. What’s in the trolley? Nobody knows, and has to make decisions based on that incomplete information.
My favorite YOLO-Driven Development practice (from a former employer) was Customers as QA. We would write code, build the code, and ship it to the customer, then the customer would run the code, file bugs for what broke, and we would have a new build ready next week.
It provides many benefits:
No need to hire QA engineers.
Focuses developer debugging time on features actually used by customers instead of corner cases that no customer is hitting.
Developers deliver features faster instead of wasting time writing automated tests.
Builds are faster because “test” stages are no-op.
One time a developer was caught writing automated tests (was not sure in the correctness of his code, a sign of a poor developer). Our manager took 15 minutes out of his busy day to yell at him about wasting company resources and putting release timelines in jeopardy.
Nah, industrial and infrastructure should mostly use BSD. And “Never see a command line” consumer OS’s should generally be forks from Linux or other FOSS. Most Linux distros have come a long way and are ready for gaming prime time, but fail the “80 year old grandma who wants to digitise her record collection but is a bit unclear on double-clicking” test.
