Nice, congratulations!
-
@tosensei i would say it counts ;)
-
@rox79 and you should do too, it's an amazing learning experience.
-
@Lensflare than go at it and build one ;)
The target language for mine is actually Javascript.
A year ago I've discovered haskell and fell in love with it, ever since then I wanted to have a similar development experience as a frontend developer. Therefore I wrote my language and am having a blast with it. -
I belong in the first category then. Designing a programming language is the most fullfilling thing i've done.
-
doesn't sound like you hate web dev.
Sounds like you hate your boss and your designer. Do you think they wouldn't ask stupid shit from you in any other field? -
@electrineer Arch also runs great on macbooks. But has of course the same thermal issueswith the hardware.
-
@Oktokolo I actually don't have any mathematical background at all. I just like well thought through programming languages which encourage elegant coding.
I have never heard of coq before, but I'll definitely have a look at it, thanks!
I'm currently trying to write a compiler with an llvm backend, and am enjoying that process a lot with haskell (even though that it's quite tough on me). But each time when I succeed with something and look at the code, I am enjoying how clean everything looks with the pattern mathing and guards. -
@Oktokolo thanks for your suggestions! I already had a look at ocaml, but I had a couple of issues with ocamls package manager. It expected having kernel modules activated, which I didn't want to be enabled.
I think I stick with haskell, so far nothing annoyed me there.
I'm quite opinionated and easily dismiss things, when I feel that bad decisions were made.
In haskell I feel that a lot of really good choices were made.
Even if it takes me a while to understand the concepts of it.
But thanks for your recommendations anyway! -
@Oktokolo you are so unbelievably correct. Even though I am quite comfortable with map reduce and also immutability, I still struggle learning to use haskell.
But each time when I do accomplish something,i like how clean haskell looks. -
@mrnobuddy umm okay, I didn't see that. But I take it as a compliment, I guess? Thanks.
-
@sleek It's nice to hear that you are not completely ignore the threat. But I wouldn't trust the backend to have everything validated correctly.
If the backend misses one thing at one point in the past, it might end up being in the database, and attack you even though that the backend fixed the future threat.
If you use a decent framework, you won't have that vulnerability. And I would argue that it saves time any money, to work with a framework anyway.
Sure, things used to be simpler back in the day, but I certainly don't look back and want to go back to that place.
Go ahead rant further, I was not meaning to stop you doing that. But I'll rant against you, if I disagree ;) I think that is the point of this platform, to have a good discussion after a rant. -
@bioDan Thank you. I'm aware that they were trying to troll. But sadly they deep down actually don't care about security vulnerabilities.
If you look at this whole thread, it is sadly very obvious that barely anyone cares, neither about their customers security, nor about there own applycation.
I used to see the developer community as an open minded and responsible community. But I'm wrong, ones again it shows that people are ignorant and lazy to learn things and have no aspiration for their craftmanship. -
@yellow-dog okay, if you say so..
-
@sleek I certainly hope that you were joking. If you meant it, then you would be very ignorant. It is very easily provable than XSS is very real, and your code is vulnerable to it. If response.Project.title or response.User.username contains html+script-tag, than I could execute code on your users browser and hijack their session.
-
@sleek you are joking, right?
-
I heavily disagree. If you use it like that, you have XSS vulnerabilities everywhere. I dislike that you are advocating for that.
-
@freddyjohn there you have it, that's were your trauma comes from. But you can break the cycle, get a decent keyboard for yourself.
-
@freddyjohn no, it has to do with your parents.
-
@freddyjohn be honest, you want it that way
-
@freddyjohn freudian misread.
-
@freddyjohn if you are able to see that difference, than I'm also sure that you can imagine that there are even better keyboards then the ones you've used so far.
A good keyboard has a good feedback for the user, when a switch activated. The keycaps are guiding my fingers to the right position on the homerow. Good keycaps have some grip and tell my by feel where the middle of the key is. A good keyboard needs to have a good weight, so that it is not flopping around on the desk. -
@freddyjohn in all the keyboards that you've used, you have never seen any differences, on how well you are able to type on it?
-
@freddyjohn you are trolling, right? I certainly can't use 10 fingers on a touch keyboard, without looking at it.
I'm not saying that you can't get the same job done without a proper keyboard, but a common keyboard won't support you getting stuff done well. -
@freddyjohn Well, it's the device we all use daily. Do you think a carpenter doesn't care about his tools and just uses anything?
-
@dsteiner what's stopping you?
-
@rodrigograca31 the pieces total were around 250€. Without shipping and customs.
-
@AleCx04 its actually not hard at all, you just need some patience.
-
@Lensflare in my current firmware it doesnt do anything. I'm thinking of putting super+alt+l on that key, for locking my screen. I'm not sure yet though, do you have suggestions?
-
@jbrandona119 thanks! I dont have a concrete plan for the next one just yet. I have some retro looking keycaps coming soon though. https://drop.com/buy/94707
So the next board will be something a little more retro looking. 45% is a great form factor, good for you ;)
@logo4poop I have suprisingly never heart about these, that sounds very interestingly tough. thanks for the tip.
