Only boomers complain who can't keep up mentally
Music gets distorted when sped up but regular videos/voice just result in less time wasted without any downsides -
What's up with all the employer bootlickers in the comments
-
Windows 8 had sharp rectangles everywhere and it also looked like shit
-
Lenovo retards added a specific resistor in each charging cable that the laptop senses and refuses to charge with weaker power supplies altogether

Why do you think ppl want to spend valuable time to mentor you
-
@kiki a little creature with a beard and hat
-
How about we invent a build tool that generates Cmake files
-
Webpack? 2015 called
-
I don't do much "normal" development anymore, specialized in reverse engineering, web + binary exploitation etc instead
-
@retoor
Use a GUI (in the editor preferably) for staging specific files/ranges instead of the CLI to avoid going insane
E.g. Ctrl+enter in vscode stages+commits automatically
If you think it's stupid and always stage all, you don't understand git and probably half your commits contain unrelated changes -
- "waaaah I only want the library once but the version isn't compatible"
- "waaaah why does it have to install X different versions, so much bloat"
Choose one
This applies to package management everywhere, not only npm -
Do your statistics exclude all the crypto spam bots?
-
You can count the Allman style as a mental disorder as well
Along with tab indentations -
@cprn there are websites where you only have to copy paste it
-
> You can't just "@Steven text me, here's my phone"
You can just "@Steven encrypt your phone number with my public key: .... and post the result here" -
It's truly astonishing how rust fanboys defend a steaming pile of shit
How about you drink less soy milk and use a real language (C/C++), or is your pea brain too small to write bug/vulnerability-free code? -
What a joke lmao
Ugly ass list of names + generic copy paste description. Not even an argument list or return type unless you click on it -
Java did the same years before
Fuck auto-generated function references, they're not a replacement for proper hand-written documentation
It achieves the exact opposite: looks like shit and is unusable (no logical grouping, introduction or examples), less devs are willing to spend time because "the magic tool generates everything" -
Definitely. First sentence gave it away
-
Phillips/Slotted/Hex belong in the trash
Pozidriv is a bit better but most ppl damage it with a Phillips screwdriver because "it looks the same"
Torx is superior to all but very rarely used for some reason -
"But Result and ? operator are so much better than errors!!!1!1!!1"
Except it gives you 0 context information or traces so gl figuring out why tf it failed
The compiler can't prevent that either
Rusts genius solution: make your code look like shit by checking/logging everywhere or install a third party package that fixes its shortcomings -
@jestdotty you can still uninstall pretty much every app via adb
Or go nuts and root it -
Should have just deployed shopify with a bit of customisation, easiest $5000 of your life
-
Reddit just has awful engineers, it's possible to achieve good performance and little js with either vanilla or frameworks
Remember the video quality picker downloads all of them at once and chooses it locally
Or the year old bug where you send a post multiple times -
No password requirement is just stupid
Now someone can easily try short ones, view the email, probably login there as well with the same password -
@Ranchonyx well both
-
the concept of minifying doesn't only apply to js, it's comparable to the strip command for native binaries
-
It's dean edwards packer, purpose is to compress source and not obfuscate.
That's why you can get the original source back, as opposed to "proper" obfuscators where it will only be similar at best -
Off by one? Have you heard about named capture groups
-
@lorentz there's still a difference between looking up if a key exists and also getting it's value (additional memory accesses etc)
