It’s been great almost since I started using it.

I started using it exactly when 4.0 came out, because that’s when I started using Linux and I thought learning 3 didn’t make sense. But 4 only got stable around 4.4 I think. The problem was that 4.0 wasn’t intended to be for end users yet, but distributions didn’t realize that and packaged it right away.

KDE didn’t repeat that mistake. 5.0 was almost completely smooth sailing (some applications took a long time to port and looked ugly, that’s it), and 6.0 was completely seamless.

If I had to guess, probably variable refresh rate

Relevant, maintained? Zero.

I’m talking about ROS, which you can’t overdose on in the course of a day, but which are damaging your DNA and therefore cause cancer.

Why are you so hostile?

So is oxygen, but you gotta keep breathing.

The sun at least also makes you happy.

Yeah, but a satirical one, not one to be taken literally.

Python is just glorified shell scripting

Absolutely not, python is an actual programming language with sane error handling and arbitrarily nestable data structures.

I don’t like the indentation crap

Don’t be so superficial. When learning something, go with the flow and try to work with the design choices, not against them.

Python simply writes a bit differently: you do e.g. more function definitions and list comprehensions.

Not only is there a UInt8Array, there’s also a bunch of others: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/TypedArray#typedarray_objects

Great point, but this part of the quote is still dumb as rocks:

Coding is just kind of like the language that we talk to computers. It’s not necessarily the skill in and of itself. The skill in and of itself is like, how do I innovate? How do I go build something that’s interesting for my end users to use?

Sure, if you have a big workforce hand-coding UI, you might replace some of them by better tools. But things like that are a fraction of a fraction of the responsibilities developers have

Yeah, the motivation here is “please panic-buy our GPUs/please panic-buy into our cloud GPU infrastructure ”

If you had read the article, you’d know!

… I’m just joking, I didn’t attack anyone, only a multi-billion tech conglomerate. I don’t understand howi can possibly be an ass here.

Cancer? Eating feces? Stabbing forks in your own eyes?

There’s loads of alternatives!

No reason. It’s just that when there wasn’t anything to experience it, nobody asked themselves that question.

So the question is a consequence of our existence, and that’s the answer

dbg!() for Rust users

The comments you saw aren’t by the same people or are they?

I agree, although it undersells hatch and has a title that made me roll my eyes. Very well researched, none of the usual hot takes and clichés.

Just use a formatter. It’ll show you that the second one is two statements:

1. {} (the empty block)
2. +[] coerce an empty array to a number: new Number(new Array())

I see, that is strange!
