Yeah… I do hear it a lot.

That’s what I’m saying.

That’s a really poor metric, because that encompasses many salaried jobs.

But yes, it’s ultimately just about whether or not you are selling your time for money, or if you have acquired enough money to exploit the labor of others to make yourself more money without doing anything yourself.

Uh, there’s still a shitload of websites out there doing SSR using stuff like PHP, Rails, Blazor, etc. HTML is alive and well, and frankly it’s much better than you claim.

With your example, there are a number of languages that can statically prevent thread safety issues entirely, so that’s not actually a good example of something a type system can’t catch.

To be honest, there’s much more that can be statically enforced by a type system than what C++ is capable of. With a sufficiently powerful type system, it tends to become more about tradeoffs in ergonomics and type safety.

It’s definitely not faster than vim, fwiw.

Yeah the city is progressive. Tornadoes… Not as much as you would think. There was one last year that hit the outskirts of town a bit. Last one to do any damage before that was like 2017.

Have you ever been to southeastern Nebraska? Like… Where most people in the state live? It’s nothing like western Nebraska. I live in Lincoln and it’s a great place to live: progressive, lots of parks, great school system, nice downtown area, beautiful university campus, etc. Nothing like you’re describing. Nebraskans don’t actually go to western Nebraska very much.

Most of the population lives in the southeastern corner of the state, in Omaha, Lincoln, Nebraska City, and some surrounding counties. I live in Lincoln and it’s a very nice place to live. Western Nebraska is completely different and not many people live there, and most people in the state don’t go there either unless they are driving through.

Nobody sane uses vim as an IDE

True, same people use unix as their IDE and vim as the editor therein.

A real nerd would know that React is a library and HTML is a markup language, and neither are programming languages.

Unix is my IDE, vim is my editor.

Yep. When everything about your IDE (unix) is programmable, it makes “modern” IDEs seem quite quaint.

Personally I make extensive use of https://f1bonacc1.github.io/process-compose/launcher/ to orchestrate a bunch of different shell scripts that trigger based on file changes (recompiling, restarting servers, re-running tests, etc.). Vim just reads from files as needed. It’s lightning fast, no bloat, and a world-class editing experience.

Yep. So much of this shit from “environmental activists” that have no fucking clue how any of this works. It’s been shown time and time again that nuclear is the answer for base load energy requirements with minimal environmental impact.

Proper homemade ranch, not that nasty Hidden Valley shit. It’s pretty great.

I mean, not really. This is weird shit to put in a legal document and is pretty pointless. It’s also just hard to read due to contrast issues (which can be particularly relevant depending on any disabilities of interested parties, etc.). Like I’m pretty sure there is text on there that does not meet WCAG guidelines.

It’s definitely not appropriate for a court document. I’d go farther and say putting anything to dramatically draw attention to oneself in a court document is inappropriate. That’s simply not what court documents are for. They should strive to be as mundane, uninteresting, an impartial as possible.

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine path/to/file will remove that shit.

Though personally, I get as much software as possible on my work MacBook through Nix, and only use .dmg files if absolutely required.

It’s not that hard, technically speaking, though of course it takes skill to come up with a set of glyphs that work well together and such.

Also, there are websites that can scan your handwriting and turn it into a font file, which is pretty cool. I have a font I created of my wife’s handwriting.

Yep. It does increasingly feel like developers like me who find it deeply disturbing and problematic for our profession and society are going to increasingly become rarer. Fewer and fewer people are going to understand how anything actually works.

Completely agree. Just a bunch of people who clearly don’t play the game and know nothing about it talking out of their asses.

IMO you can’t have a serious opinion about the game without having actually played it competitively. If you’re just somebody that’s casually played a couple games with friends and family, your opinion about the game isn’t really relevant.
