Mind Blown...

So I was in a meeting with another dev talking to a customer. He instructed the customer to open a command prompt in Windows. Then to use the SSH command. In my mind I was assuming he had told the client to install SSH beforehand. Later I started thinking about it and did a search. Apparently Windows 10/11 have a version of OpenSSH installed by default. I had used Windows 7 in the past and always installed git shell to get this. So in my Windows 10 I did the same thing. git shell also supports aliases and other nice *nix like scripting features. So it is always a win.

So hear I am realizing SSH is installed by default on newer windows systems. Like damn, I never thought I would see the day. I think I still prefer git shell, but having SSH by default is nice to know. I know they got the subsystem shit to get Linux. But not everyone wants or needs that.

I probably should learn what is in Windows these days. lol. I mean, besides malware.

Have you ever applied for a job and then spiraled after a few days of not hearing anything back?

Me too! 🙄😭😭😭

Markdown syntax is ambiguous and always forgiving (any text in a markdown document is valid markdown). Syntax is complicated and context-dependent.

I honestly think it might be one of the trickiest languages to parse.

Enjoy! 😉

Android studio gradle nightmares, cli not picking active jdk, intellij maven horrorshow, vscode being the nexus of perdition itself. When I'm dead and gone, scatter my ashes over sublime text. NEVER encountered a headache, ever. The setting for autosave is one forum visit away. 1000s of utilities at my fingertips, with shortcuts, not silly plugins. Neither hangs nor fusses irrespective of how many windows, projects, tabs I've got open. Gargantuan code real estate despite having a file panel and file preview. The only guys who got monokai right. Can open random editors and fill them with notes without first saving. A more intuitive vcs gui than even github desktop. More lightweight to download than an beep.ogg. Never lags cuz it wants to be powered by a wind turbine. It's free. Literally all the sorrows that terrorise my dev in its peers, all gone

Yes, it's not "integrated" to my de, in the sense that its intellisense is a glorified autocomplete for existing tokens. I guess, tradeoffs must be made. If you know the language well enough not to grope handheld by the ide, or in dynamic typed languages where red, squiggly lines will not bring your software down to its knees, it should be head and shoulders above those conartistes

Just wrote an email to Rocket Chat with subject "Dear commercial hungry bastards" and complimented them with raping the f out of one of the best chat applications there is. With decent apps and stuff. For people who don't know, Rocket Chat is a Slack-variant. Once almost the same. But it was completely self hosted and under YOUR control. Now, if you host it locally, you get a screwed up design that you can unlock by paying.. If two users register on y our rocket chat instance, you get a commercial message of them regarding the growing team. Also, i have by default some remote user of them named rocketcat in my chat. Wtf, who wants that ffs? And again! SELF HOSTED SERVICE. Imagine, they have servers under their control and don't even have to do the hosting. A big win-win for them I guess.

Idiots found themselves a marketing team apparently.

I work with idiots.

That is all.
