Well, contemporary world is full of examples of people being a far right dickbag, even though they declare the exact opposite (as a fine fascist would do), that are"histories of success"

So, it’s not just me… I feel really relieved

aaaah… usa destroying whole countries: infrastructures, economy, traditional culture, health, art… how could one be against iraqi resistance? best of luck iraqi people, you’ve suffered too much and deserve peace.

if aesthetics reason is what gets through, I’m really lost then. for sure that’s a rant. thank you, have a nice day

well, in my rant, the bit about why do I have to add braces to fix stuff is very close to your first point, and the bit about reading while quickly scrolling to your second point, in which you say the right thing: not adding braces is something that one actively does. with no acceptable reason ever, imo.

good. article upvoted. as are also good curly braces after if/else. too many times I’ve seen if/else without curly braces. why I should carefully read tens of loc, to find ifs? why can’t I find it at a glance, quickly scrolling the file? y do i have to read the line horizontally too to understand if the instruction is there or in the following line? why do I HAVE to add the curly braces to fix stuff? juniors get arty with this “feature” and unwrapping their logic becomes a real pain: but it looks so good!

particularly nasty situation, for real. in my experience, they know the bits of a framework, but they’ll never get to write a modest regex: they’ll have opinions on that too.

you could use dbeaver that warns you for update and delete queries without a where clause, independently of the db system. I hope the functionality it’s still there since, for totally unrelated motivations, I always use a where clause, even when buying groceries.

I wish I was so lucky to have comments.

in real life, I’m fighting with - I’m not joking - a few dozen “quick patches”. code does not reflect in any point functional requirements, and dude is adamant he’s in the right and supersarcastic in any occasion.

amen

Plus, there’s always the temptation to do it the shitty way and “fix it later”

double amen

you’ve probably read this many times before. prototyping, three users applications, routine, quick test, owning pretentious kids with some class inheritance, medium / small company data processing, free very good editors with all you need to code/debug, speed not necessary, my boss doesn’t like it… stuff like that

almost two whole years! that’s almost 328 years more than capitalism!!

let’s see what happens now.

ah!

that’s i fullily swear, dear

eh… just this afternoon I installed a demo game, built with unity… am i a terrible person? I didn’t know it was made in unity, i f****** swear

I wonder if a batch program wouldn’t help you to bypass task manager too, mmmh

what da heck? ah ah ah

well the first part is super interesting…common mistake installing from official store non brand apps!? that’s something on the line with win store. if I’m told I’d die if I do not install Inkscape through win store, well, you know, I’d either stop looking at the insides of a svg or die. not so tough of a decision ah ah

on mac i can’t honestly argue about anything. apple policies, practices, hw, sw, services, etc. are something i try to stay as far away as possible. dunno if it’s still the same, but as an example VLC on mac was practically nothing and broken compared to linux and win version, because, you know, quicktime (or what it was/is called the native media player). also is it possible that mac makes really hard to access ms services (or that ms makes really hard to access their services on a mac? although they already make sw for that os… mmh…)? anyways, just for completeness, on win I had no trouble managing office (again, don’t recall what that iteration was called, but it was the one that allowed you to install office in 5 machines with one license) with firefox. have a nice day
