I’d wager the same one who put all their energy into the the big bang then has just had the worst hangover ever since

nah its not whoever’s putting the bags in, it’s either management deciding it’s too inefficient to deal with two streams, or the people using the bins weren’t capable of separating so just threw it wherever and so it all ended up mixed anyway

I mean immediately sure but in reality he was just an early al-qaeda prototype trying to spread his religion by blowing people up

Also you can actually see the stars and can hold a regular sleep schedule unlike in summer where it never actually gets beyond twilight

C is memory safe if you program it well enough, so I guess C

Docker fan mindset

What OS doesn’t do that, even linux has xdg dirs

I just find the saving mechanism frustrating to use compared to vim’s as an entry level user, and now as a mid-skilled user I dislike how featureless nano is - when I was first learning how to use the terminal I hated having to edit anything as I was pretty much force-fed nano with no alternative provided, but on finding vim and remembering literally 3 things (:w, :q and i) everything became so much easier, but I definitely do have an extra bitter taste left about not being told about something much easier to use which irked me when I saw someone preaching how amazing nano is

I also really don’t get the hate for vim when remembering 3 things gives you as much/more functionality as nano and is a starting point for so much more functionality - intuitive doesn’t mean featureless and don’t try and pretend nano’s shortcuts are the same as 99% of other editors (text or otherwise), in fact they’re totally different, making it less intuitive

Nano is just as fiddly as vim and way less powerful when you actually figure out what you’re doing though?

Ie a completely redundant piece of software that has no place being pre-installed anywhere

The syntax is certainly easier than Java

And VisualBasic’s syntax is easier than COBOL, but this isn’t a competition to make the least offensive heap of putrid garbage, so why does it matter?

Python works just fine for basic scripts, frankly it’s amazing for it, but oop and functional programming is so incredibly obviously badly shoehorned in that huge swathes needs scrapping and version 4 releasing

I mean once you get beyond bash-like scripts python is esoteric as fuck, adding oop to what is essentially a shell is a terrible idea

That said, there’s plenty of languages with good syntax that is still good when you get into more complex stuff (modern C#, scala, kotlin and more)

Yeah, gleam.io really fucked up I guess…

Unironically though people asking questions, then further explanation, then posting when they figure it out is pretty optimal compared to above average documentation

Who’s suggesting that people are using if statements for arithmetic?

The only time that you can feasibly replace an if statement with arithmetic is if it’s a boolean, but frankly that’s an edge case… Also if you’re not writing in rust or c or whatever then don’t worry as the interpreter will run a huge amount of branches for every line of code (which is what all your nested ifs, switches, gotos, returns etc. will compile down to anyway)

I mean OCaml… But the issue is more the monkeys bashing out the language wanting to A. set a type for their exported function and B. know what type whatever function they’re using is supposed to take so it doesn’t randomly break as they gave it some random type that was formerly compatible

OCaml has an equally good type system without being pretentious about it

Most jobs that work with FOSS are at the most privacy violating companies unless you go to (eg.) ARM to be a compiler engineer.

Other than that, your best bet is meta, google etc. as they have the resources to pay to write code for other people.

Let’s dig a very wide canal connecting the Dead Sea, Red Sea & Sea of Galilee to the Mediterranean… Maybe about 250 miles wide would do it

There’s a difference between being a team player and a subservient pawn though - if the maintainer wanted to play as a team they would’ve suggested changes to the patch and accepted OP’s PR. As it happens they didn’t as they clearly have some sort of a power/superiority complex or something, or at best are dismissive of others to the detriment of the project they work on
