Yea, talk about overcomplicating a simple task.

Honestly I liked it initially but it got boring quickly, just generally the same pattern of runs.

I feel like it has weird millennial humour vibes to it. I hate it.

Anyone else think the wizard memes are profoundly boring?

I actually read this recently and I don’t think he’s autistic, but he was definitely written intentionally to show how a fairly confident, competent person (bordering on smug, but not quite) would struggle on prism.

Singapore is on the equator, within the intertropical convergence zone which is known for windless weather. Wind farms wouldn’t be as efficient there.

These are soooo common on old houses in Melbourne. I’ve never met anyone who lives in one, but they’re often closed all year which is insane to me (are these people sitting in the dark in their living rooms??)

Yea that didn’t happen either when people were warned about false information online…

Autohotkey is the most arcane fucking language I’ve used, idk why someone hasn’t rewritten it in something clearer.

Bosses will never understand this and discourage refactoring until months later nothing works and everything has to be rewritten…

Agreed, in any context where I’d open man I’d rather tldr instead. If you needed to read chunks of documentation like in man I’d rather just google the docs instead than clunkily try to read in terminal.

Man live coding interviews sound like a nightmare to me.

Rclone is superior IMHO, you have to explicitly name the output folder. Used to think it was a hassle but in hindsight being explicit about the destination reduces mistakes.

I use GNU find every day and still have to google about the details. Only learnt about - delete the other day, good to know the position matters.

Wouldn’t syncing automatically every few days give you the same protection though?

Did woodworking before I started software engineering, and I feel like the general attitude to craftsmanship applies well to coding.

I don’t use chatGPT, but work with colleagues who do. They’re productivity visibly drops and half the time I gotta fix their shitty code.

No save summing on dice rolls anymore though 😢

Same sort of logic for why people cross picket lines. Sure everyone is entitled to do what they want, but it hurts the rest of us.

The amount of bootlicking YouTube premium users in these threads astonish me. Wonder how they'd feel when it's $150+ per year and the value proposition completely ceases to exist.
