It’s on Reddit too.

WE WANT MORE OUTLAW FOLK HEROES!

Do you have a link backing that up? I’m not saying you’re wrong, but the coverage so far has only turned up a handful of anodyne links and news stories.

no you’re not

Nice!

you just need to say the magic words…

The Venn diagram of Lemmy users and Outlook users is probably pretty close to two separate circles. I’m sure there’s some commonality, but probably not a lot.

Debugging. It’s a whodunnit where the victim, murderer, and investigator are all you.^(apologies to Filipe Fortes)

As someone who has tried to make useful and accurate progress bars: fuck progress bars.

I thought those were for only when shit is seriously wrong and execution can’t continue in the current state.

That’s how it starts. Nice and simple. Everyone understands.

Until

some resource was in a bad state

and you decide you want to recover from that situation, but you don’t want to refactor all your code.

Suddenly, catching exceptions and rerunning seems like a good idea. With that normalized, you wonder what else you can recover from.

Then you head down the rabbit hole of recovering from different things at different times with different types of exception.

Then it turns into confusing flow control.

The whole Result<ReturnValue,Error> thing from Rust is a nice alternative.

no

I remember getting these for games. They were awesome, but they never fit my keyboard.

My driving instructor said leaving 4 seconds of distance was safe for highway speeds. Ok busy highways the best I can get is a few car lengths.

Poverty and pressure to commit pension fraud were shown to be excellent indicators of reaching ages 100+ in a way that is the opposite of rational expectations’.

I love shitting on Python, but I feel like all those problems are present in libraries for other languages as well. There’s a tonne of that crap for JS/TS.

Similarly, I find a fair number of Rust crates (that I want to use) have virtually no doc or inline examples, and use weird metaprogramming that I can’t wrap my head around.

Cat nip is non-negotiable.

And we smell your piss bottles

I am brainstorming right now.
