Doesn’t matter in the world of next quarter vision. So shortsighted.

This is ‘the ends justifies the means’ line of thinking. Very unethical. But it can also be very cathartic.

Can you tag/save posts?

I use vscode with plugins and manually add my files now. The workflow is beautiful.

There is nothing presented by you that is in good faith here.

Unraid does this via docker. It’s amazing. You can do this live and on the fly.

Also AI, though I’m sure that’ll be an unpopular suggestion. It really does save time though.

Decorating comments can stay off the platform, thanks. Comments should stand on their own.

Agreed. I’ve been seeing the trend myself and it’s a damn shame. Ignorance isn’t a reason to shelter others

Java’s conventions are self flagellation.

Unrolled a loop for a microcontroller and improved performance by like 300x. You can achieve amazing optimizations doing basics when you’re at low enough levels. The compiler was not smart enough on its own. Then again this was like 20 years ago. But anyway, will likely never hit that level of optimization ever again lol.

By using lemmy, you are not enriching the wallets of the shareholders.

You actually have no guarantee that any given deployment doesn’t harvest and sell data. They probably don’t, but it’s not guaranteed.

These are good things, for sure, but for me they are separate from why I’m here. The niche discussions that I crave are just not here. We’re simply not large enough to have anything but the most popular subjects get any traction. So we have memes, politics, and programming/linux discussions. Worse off, you have to dodge the hexbear and lemmigrad dipshits. So the overall experience is still suffering due to the size.

If it fits the need…

And then there’s me, missing flash :(

Flash and AS3 was so much fun to work in. I completely understand why the industry moved away from it but even today we have yet to fully catch up to all the media animation and programmatic features it provided all in one. RIP.

Linux’s power is coincidentally its weakness. I don’t think the broader community wants that simplicity imposed.

Oh fuck I hate encountering this level of commenting. If it’s complicated, you should have a design doc. Source code is not where you write your dissertation. Simple explanations are good, especially since the code could be updated while the comment is likely to remain unchanged. Long expositions are usually the result of bad coding or improperly allocated design.

I forget how lucky I am to live in a large city sometimes. 2Gb down, 1gbps up, $50 all in.

This hits close to home.

It’s less about putting up as much as fulfilling requirements. I know several software houses will tailor and vary their testing directly as result of classification. The higher the rigor, the higher the cost. There are customers that spare no expense in certifications like government.
