Wow that’s good news, I’ll have to give it a shot

Am I going to have a bad time trying to switch to Wayland? I just use discord, Spotify, steam, some basic steam games, Krita, and emacs
Hey now there’s nothing weird about being completely unable to focus under fluorescent lights.
I mean, right now I’m shopping for a house with a decent sized property so I can grow a permaculture food forest to get fresh healthy veggies and fruit.
20’ of lawn is like enough for two rows of fruit trees and berry bushes
Oh man I work with one of the PhDs who invented several of the space weather formulas. He’s got books about it. I want to show him this so bad, but I don’t think he would find it funny 😭
Maybe he’d laugh at the evil wizards part.
Oh man this good me laughing way too hard, well done

Absolutely meirl. I keep making frame rate drops on games, but my CPU is … Checks date… top of the line 2012 tech!
Ok but what crow time comic,
Edit, Crow Time is amazing
I suppose this is a hot take, but I’d never intentionally select a closed source paid database or programming language. Your data is the most valuable thing you have. The idea that you’d lock yourself into a contract with a third party is extremely risky.
For example, I’ve never seen a product on Oracle that didn’t want to migrate off, but every one has tightly coupled everything Oracle so it’s nearly impossible. Why start with Oracle in the first place? Just stay away from paid databases, they are always the wrong decision. It’s a tax on people who think they need something special, when at most they just need to hire experts in an open source database. It’ll be much much cheaper to just hire talent.
Meanwhile I’ve done two major database shifts in my career, and you are correct, keeping to ANSI standard SQL is extremely important. If you’re on a project that isn’t disciplined about that, chances are they are undisciplined about so many other things the whole project is a mess that’ll be gone in ten years anyway. I know so few projects that have survived more than fifteen years without calls for a “rewrite”. Those few projects have been extremely disciplined about 50% of all effort is tech debt repayment, open source everything, and continuous modernization.
I don’t think it’s going away until ECMA supports native types. Until then it’s the best game in town.
If a team decides to move away from it, it’s only few hours work to entirely remove. So even if it’s going away, it’s risk free until then.
But I cannot imagine why any team would elect to remove Typescript without moving to something else similar. Unless it’s just a personal preference by the developers who aren’t willing to learn it. It removes so many issues and bugs. It makes refactoring possible again. I think teams that want to remove all types are nostalgic, like a woodworker who wants to use hand tools instead of power tools. It’s perfectly fine, and for some jobs it’s better. But it’s not the most efficient use of a team to build a house.
looks up from soldering a keyboard from scratch like a feral raccoon I’m absolutely not in the middle of countless projects
Ho boy, my mind is a minefield of such topics. I’m compulsively drawn to obsess about new things for a few months and then never think of it again until someone brings it up.
This meme hit me hard, so true.
This is so cool, I’ve never thought about it, but yeah the coastline is almost infinitely long
The third movie be like “Plato’s cave, nah, more like Plato’s RAVE”
Fantastic meme, I’m dying over here
This is fantastic
I like React because these days it’s pretty well known and just about anything I need I can find easily. There’s newer similar tools like Vue, or entirely different approaches like Next, but React remains a dominant choice for the time being. I’m sure fashion will move the industry along soon enough, but none of the newer tools I’ve seen really are such a huge leap forward that I couldn’t get stuff done in a few days of prep and tutorials. So for now, I’ll stick with react until I need to move or a client requests it.
For backend I’m increasingly preferring simple Restful APIs. If it can map an endpoint to a function and convert JSON into a dictionary or object, it’s probably good enough. I just wrapped up a project in ASP.Net Core and that pretty much just got out of the way and let me make web API endpoints.
This was for that hero still waiting on their daily update
I mean I hate that the steam controller is missing an entire thumb stick and a dpad, but I like the touchpad too. This just seems like an PS4 controller.
