For the ‘I use … BTW’ meme to say something else.
No, actually, I can’t think of anything. I’m pretty comfortable with it at this point. Been running it since 2013…
This is the most excellent summary of Go I have ever read. I agree with everything you’ve said, although as a fan of Scala and in particular its asynchronous programming ecosystem (cats for me, but I’ll forgive those who prefer the walled garden of zio) I would also add that, whilst its async model with go routines is generally pretty easy to use, it can shit the bed on some highly-concurrent workloads and fail to schedule stuff in time that it really should’ve, and because it’s such a mother-knows-best language there’s fuck all you can do to give higher priority to the threads that you happen to know need more TLC
You say crappy, I say wait. My knees won’t have to bend so much. I’d actually take this if I didn’t have kids
I’m glad that you have a workflow that works for you! I like to open up articles, instantly hit the ‘reader mode’ button, cmd+f for keywords, and hit ‘next’ until I find the relevant section. This usually takes just a few seconds to get to get meat (if there’s anything worth skipping). One advantage is my internet connection isn’t always great, so I only have to wait for a few kb of text to download (even on a shit connection that’s not generally a lag I’m capable of noticing), whereas with videos I often have some loading issues. Also I hate the style of most presenters and can scroll back to the right point more easily in text articles if I’ve gone ‘too far’, so that’s an approach that works for me.
Thanks for sharing! I’ve never heard of sponsor block, I rely on ublock origin (for Firefox, not the handicapped chrome version) when watching videos, and usually only watch videos that I actually want to watch, but I appreciate having another tool in my box.
Who are you, that can skim a video faster than skimming text? That’s, like, the complete opposite of my lived experience 😂. What a rich melange of folks make up this world, eh.
That’s a lovely little idea, imma steal that
Is this a joke? Analysis of techniques would be literally asking why an argument were lost, if an argument was indeed lost. Of course you’re making a lot of assumptions there, and I agree you’re not making an effort
That’s a bit OTT IMO. You don’t need to become an academic for knowledge of the world, the ability to digest information, and the ability to effectively communicate, to be useful. I think it’s valuable just as, like, life enrichment, too. Not to mention that spending the first few years of your independent adult life around people going through that same transition has other value - socialising, shared experiences, it’s not unusual to make many friends for life.
Or comics, who use the mechanism ubiquitously
Thanks for the video. Yeah ok actually clankers cavern (no wait that was banjo kazooie, I meant that one with all the sea serpents) was hella laggy, you’ve brought it all back
Is that true about the debug build? I had it on the N64 way back when and don’t remember it being especially laggy. OTOH I was young, and relatively shit at computer games
Only one vowel because you didn’t include all the I’s ;)
I love that you ran it through an anagram solver. Insane
Yeah ok fine this is a pretty contentious point and you make the other side well. I was thinking more ‘being aggressive’ and such rather than ‘revealing bigotism’.
I’d be fucked because I work on and use OSS multiple times a day, and have no idea what a distributed maven central looks like
No idea why this is such a common belief. If you’re masking being a belligerent cunt, then you’re not being a beligerent cunt. The only people whose behaviour I trust are those who care about their behaviour being as such - at least you know they’re fucking trying
The past is a grotesque animal in my arse
The talking to Gods(or chairs or trees) bit is definitely the weirdest bit of psychosis because really you’re only talking to yourself, and I’ve found I can kinda trick myself into revealing it’s a psychotic episode by forcing revelation that my brain isn’t prepared to fill in and it gets a bit obvious. Odd stuff, the mind.
