atheist said @12bitfloat correction, don't do synthetic drugs. Natural drugs are fine.,pluto, the reject,We're fully in the AI bubble. Nobody knows why it's needed but VC companies want it. So they're shoving it in anything and telling everyone it's great when there's maybe 3 real use cases where users actually benefit from it.

Gonna be carnage when it bursts.,A couple of years ago, giving simple instructions or basic reasoning would have been nice. LLMs killed it before it was needed.,What use case do you have where 53 bits is insufficient randomness?,@12bitfloat what you're saying is great about autogenerated docs sounds an awful lot like intellisense of an ide which most languages have an lsp now so works. What have I missed?,@kiki have you ever had to use xcode? I had to write a plugin for some mac stuff and basically required xcode. It's a broken piece of trash. Mac is the Windows/Linux hybrid. It's easy to install and get running if you've got a mac. The software is worst of both worlds.,@kiki I agree, the software apple creates is pretty good, their dev tools however are utter trash.,I guess it should be:
Apple: "works, if..."
which fits pretty well with their walled garden mantra,@kiki swift is pretty nice but it used to be that the standard library was only available on mac, I think that's got better but there's a lot of mac specific libraries that make swift nice but only on mac. Like they've got a full video library, only available when compiling on Mac. So cross platform swift loses a lot of its charm.,Compose is a godsend, no idea why it's not more widely used.

Docker buildx bake is pretty sweet too if you're trying to do a complicated build process.

I feel like docker is one of those things you learn enough to do what you need to do, not a lot more.,The objective c stdlib is pretty cool, it's what backs the swift stdlib on mac. The collection classes dynamically switch backend depending on size and expected performance characteristics. EG a set of 3 items is faster to linearly search a vector, so it'll switch that out.

https://objc.io/issues/...,@retoor Hahaha nooo... But I collect programming languages 😅 I've done 10 professionally and another half dozen on the side,I played Starfield and I liked it as a random space game, it has some really good moments like the Alien homage but it's mostly just OK. I feel like it had the "No Man's Sky" problem, super hyped delivering an OK game that didn't meet what people wanted. Hopefully starfield gets the NMS treatment and still getting new content in 5 years. I just bought skyrim on switch so playing again and there's so much more there, I hope es6 has the same depth but I'll still enjoy it if not.

Remind me in 5 years.,Arch - a really childish human.,The only perks of the company he can give are that we can work from home and changing jobs is hassle.

Why the fuck is *he* motivated?,Fuuuuckkkk this is a train wreck,"I interviewed elsewhere not that long ago and didn't like the vibe" (his words),I have an irriplacable skill set and it'd be a shame if I left. He thinks I'm bored and he's kinda right.,Well that was an entertaining train wreck. His main ask at the end was try to give more detailed updates in scrum. I've usually just woken up and rolled out of bed and have barely a vague recollection of what I've been doing.,He also said if I'm not taking it seriously I'm not developing. Had to list off some of my side projects which I'm currently learning more from than my job. I've never looked to my job for CPD.,'inv up'
'inv test'
'inv exp'
I've got a few others but can't remember rn
https://www.pyinvoke.org/,Otherwise, autocomplete does a lot of my thinking,@retoor yeah kinda like make but you've got all python to do shit with so complex things can be fairly easily automated, as opposed to trying to do it in bash. I have a cookiecutter project template which has a handful of commands,@retoor check out altair if you're using matplot https://altair-viz.github.io/

I'm not a fan of matplot...,@retoor only 2? 😅,It's not thread safe so it's hell if trying to render stuff on a server (someone asked me to try to fix that. We don't use it any more). It's also unpleasant to use, feels outdated and kinda ugly.,@Liebranca for most performance stuff where you're decompiling I'd say c++ is as good as c. Vtable function calls are hard to understand but they're also slow.,I'm running vs code in wsl. Switch off most of the autocomplete popups (most of them get in the way anyway) and it's fine (unless you're running on a toaster)...,If you're lazy enough at your main gig it's basically a side gig, so that.,UK I'm also getting timeout 😕,I read your first paragraph and was equally confused, then my brain went "is it 4chan? It's 4chan isn't it".

It's not so much that it's run by 4chan, but this explains it better than me https://youtube.com/shorts/...

Super interesting channel.,And you're still a crappy programmer,Hey! Not a total ass kisser. Also, no copium, just skill.,@thelevenin more "the original creators of the site are MIA so retoor is doing some moderation work",Yah that's a mistake if that's a normal sudoku. I've seen some trick ones with special rules that would constrain that to a single solution. Also what's your sudoku app?```
