Love the italic memes ;D

It is in italic 😀

I love this 😂😂

.busstop {
    font-style: italic;
}

#tower-of-pisa {
font-style: italic
}

Entire building falls down

Fuck, forgot a semicolon. I hate CSS.

When I said make that text italic, I didn’t mean to make it green, white, and red. That’s Italian.

Some dumb puns to cheer you up after reading/ranting about "part of your workflow you dislike"

#tower-of-pisa {
font-style: italic;
}

#titanic {
float: none;
}

.yomama {
width: 99999999px;
}

.ikea {
display: table;
}

#bigbang::before {
content: " "
}

.illuminati {
position: absolute;
visibility: hidden;
}

I'd rate these horrible puns a C++

italic in real world

Yeah it's italic

Be rant too!

Client: "Something is missing, like a type of BOOM or some fancy stuff, but I can't pinpoint what exactly. Do you know what I mean?"

Me: "Sure, give me one sec."
Changes font of a single word on a Web page to italic.

Client: "Perfect!"

My face: Priceless and trying not to laugh out loud.

// Feature Request START
Is it possible we can have some kind of markdown on posts and comments? Maybe not bold or italic, but because of the target of the app, some kind of one-line and multi-line code blocks that highlight from other text (for example: having a gray background, using a consolas font, etc)
// Feature Request END

Found today in the code of a client's old site: <em style="font-style: italic;">

😫

Sorry, need to vent.

In my current project I'm using two main libraries [slack client and k8s client], both official. And they both suck!

Okay, okay, their code doesn't really suck [apart from k8s severely violating Liskov's principle!]. The sucky part is not really their fault. It's the commonly used 3rd-party library that's fucked up.

Okhttp3

yeah yeah, here come all the booos. Let them all out.

1. In websockets it hard-caps frame size to 16mb w/o an ability to change it. So.. Forget about unchunked file transfers there... What's even worse - they close the websocket if the frame size exceeds that limit. Yep, instead of failing to send it kills the conn.

2. In websockets they are writing data completely async. Without any control handles.. No clue when the write starts, completes or fails. No callbacks, no promises, no nothing other feedback
3. In http requests they are splitting my request into multiple buffers. This fucks up the slack cluent, as I cannot post messages over 4050 chars in size . Thanks to the okhttp these long texts get split into multiple messages. Which effectively fucks up formatting [bold, italic, codeblocks, links,...], as the formatted blocks get torn apart. [didn't investigate this deeper: it's friday evening and it's kotlin, not java, so I saved myself from the trouble of parsing yet unknown syntax]

yes, okhttp is probably a good library for the most of it. Yes, people like it, but hell, these corner cases and weird design decisions drive me mad!

And it's not like I could swap it with anynother lib.. I don't depend on it -- other libs I need do!

When you apply HTML tags to the real world senario...

the more i learn about web dev, the more i realise the reason for its mess up . There are 2 major problems in it : the people who create various important concepts and tools for web dev were 1) working on it without any collaboration and agreements on the philosophy and 2) were too stubborn on their ideology i guess.

There is no limitation to anything's functionalities, and the limits that are "defined" are badshit crazy. for eg:

====================================
HTML creator : "I am gonna make a language that would provide a skeleton to web page. it will just have the text and basic markers to let the scripting and styling engines/languages know which text is supposed to be rendered and how.
It won't provide any click or loading functionality.

someone: "So i guess opening a page or loading an image would be handled by JS or other programming language? also, bold , italic or division would be added via CSS?"

HTMLguy : Nah, my html engine would ALSO do that.

someone : what , why? won't that just be stupid and against your philosophy?
HTMLguy : WHAT? am too awesome, can't hear you
w3c , 50 yrs later : sorry can't change this, gotta support the 50 yrs of web dev and billion sites

=================================

CSS guy: I am gonna make the world's best beautifying stylesheet language to provide colors, styling, fonts and backgrounds to a page. every loadings and clicks would be handled somewhere else

Some1: cool, then clicks, hover and running of animation would be handled by JS only

CSSguy :Umm, i guess i could handle those.

Some1 wha-?

CSSguy : Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou for the nobel price!

====================================

JS guy : I am gonna make a god web programming language! It can do everything: add/remove html tags, add styling, control animations, control browser, handle clicks , perform operations, everything!

some1: cool! you must be making very large programming language with lots of modules.

JS guy: No! i am gonna keep it small. no built in classes and file imports! just use the functions directly. if someone wants the additional lib functionality, install them on your server

some1 : innovative! what's typeof NaN ?

JSguy :shut up.

#tower-of-Pisa {
font-style: italic;
}

#tower-of-pisa {
font-style: italic;
}

Random thought, is Tower of Pisa the reason why the italic font style is slant?

.leaning-tower-of-pisa {
font-style: italic;
}

I really love Ubuntu Mono and similar fonts, because they're nice to look at while coding, so I tried to use it in Emacs.

Man, what it produced is just... disgusting! I couldn't see anything even in Ubuntu Mono "normal" version (not bold, not italic) with size 10 (my normal size).

In smaller size I almost couldn't recognize characters in code, in bigger it yelled at me I'm blind. Wtf emacs...

What's your favourite WYSIWYG editor?

I'm currently looking around internet for something simple and light weight.
Basically all I need are bold, italic, list, quote and image upload.

A prayer from a colleague:

Our silicone god which art in the SSD
Italic be thy name
Thy computing come
Thy bus be done
On the screen
As it is on the hdd
Give us this day our daily blue screen
And forgive us our keystrokes, as we
forgive our keyboards.
And lead us not into restarts, but
deliver us from memory leaks: For thine is the
memory, and the cpu, and the
bus, for ever. Amen

Beautiful is it not :)

when i die, my thumbstone will only have 'this' written.... small caps.... italic....fuck!
