I felt it was a bit much to be honest as well. Felt like it was a bit odd for it to go as long as it did.

apart from not having a car

I think they were implying that if that was not something that was negotiable then you could move onto reducing red meat intake.

Those of you that paid attention during the evolution and creationism (the round 2) fiasco should be familiar with what’s going on right now.

What’s going on with your keyboard? I’m curious, what’s your native language?

I don’t think I really understood the compilation portion.

Compiling in the web world can also include … type checking which I think is good, minifying code which is good, bundling code which is good. I understand that in this article that they allude to the fact that those can be bad things because devs just abuse it like expecting JavaScript to tree shake and since they don’t understand how tree-shaking works, they will just assume it does and accidentally bloat their output.

Also some static site generators could do things that authors and stuff don’t think about like accessibility and all that.

If you haven’t seen it or want a refresh, you gotta give it a go.

I think Colin Farrell’s character would agree with you.

I think you can do const thing = ... as constto lock down the mutation?

lol yes I understand I know I sound silly. My home/end aren’t typical on my keyboard. It’s like function and stuff, which breaks my flow for something I do so often.

I use VS Code mainly and I always want to go to the end of a line and beginning. On Mac it’s like CTRL+E and CTRL+A respectively. On Windows, I was like, I guess I could do Windows Key and arrows but it felt off. Installing Vim bindings on VS Code just fixed this all for me. I love it.

[edit] for non-VIM users, you can skip words and go-to braces (and delete what’s in them) and highlight within quotes very easily … for function search, the built-in VS Code is really good too. I also have Harpoon installed to hop between files. If it doesn’t appeal to you, then that’s cool too! Whatever keeps you in there. [/edit]

I’ve tried setting up my own vim stuff and I always bail out because I can’t figure something out. I feel like I need to really sit with it and I’d have the perfect set up for me.

Lastly, I’ve installed vim for zsh and it’s the best. I can hop all around my terminal and highlight and remove things. It’s so beautiful.

Not a word of a lie, I saw a “segmentation fault” error in JavaScript.

Can’t remember how we resolved it, but it did blow my mind.

aw really? was their description of it vaguely accurate? what did it taste like to you?

Yeah, I’d feel creeped out with those glasses too, lol.

The Beyond 2 looks pretty neat especially with the light weight. In addition to the points you’ve made above. The main things which stops me from using my VR headset now is that there is no real killer app for me (Beat Saber, and Superhot were awesome but I’m largely done with those now) and it feels a bit lonely doing VR a lot.

Out of curiosity are you familiar with the meta glasses? If you have, what are your thoughts about those?

I don’t think they’re VR, I think they’re AR? nonetheless, what do you think?

He did intentionally speak to them and he explains why he did that during his stream. He was trying to get more info knowing that he had the resources to fight anything if it came up.

Although it’s wise for everyone to really not yap to cops.

I LOVE Christopher Nolan because of his artistry and him putting out original movies and all that. Seriously though, me not being able to understand the dialog in his films is so weird. I think people say it’s tuned for certain cinemas and I’m watching it in the wrong ones? I don’t know about that but it makes for a shitty experience for someone that does still go to the cinema.

Yeah, I’m not in any way medically anything but I think I remember Dr Mike or one of those talking about how brain death is considered death or something like that.

I have trouble watching AI voices on YouTube. Couldn’t finish the vid. I’d prefer whoever it is that wrote this to just present it themselves.

Regardless, Peterson is a hack.

I started with C++ and went to Java to .NET to Javascript and now to Terraform.

I know this is all a joke but there’s something definitely different with the ones above and the ones below. There’s a bit of satisfaction you can get sometimes when you’re working with memory directly and getting faster feedback (yes, there’s more math back then and it wasn’t easy to look stuff up, for sure). However, there’s new challenges nowadays … there’s so many layers on top of layers. I feel as though Stack Overflow and ChatGPT are so needed because the error messages and things we give are obfuscated or unclear (not always any library author’s fault as there’s compatibility issues, etc)

We’re doing serverless stuff at my current company and none of our devs run code locally. They have to upload it using CDK or Serverless Framework to run on the cloud. We don’t use SST so we can’t set breakpoints but like that’s a lot of crap inbetween just running your code already. Not even getting into the libraries and transpilers and stuff we use. I spent like a few weeks over Christmas to get our devs to run the code locally. Guess what? None of them use it because they’re so use to uploading it. I was like, "you can put breakpoints in it! you can have nodemon and it instant reloads! nope, none of them care … "
