that’s amazing

I just had a provider issue take a server down after we swapped into production.my code was fine, still didn’t get to knock off on time.

huh I got a new layout today but it has AI features in the search? I don’t like it. I switched to signal and forced everyone but a stubborn few to follow.

I work in a company with other people. it’s not a good idea to have an idea where you have to specialise in a range of things to be successful. I specialise in programming.

also, those benchmarks translate to better user experience which means they actually use our product, and lower hosting costs.

frameworks and patterns reduce bugs and let us create features quickly. it’s important, if you think it’s pointless maybe it’s not for you. if you want to go do a startup instead, good luck.

yeah I’ve really noticed it’s hard to find info and therefore use any project that does this.

and it must suck because anyone new, instead of finding the answer to their question in a forum archive from when it was first asked, has to log in and ask it again.

whenever I have dumb noob questions on setup and I see a discord link I give up a little.

oh thank you! I use jetbrains but I wonder if I can implement the same thing

I’m just a c# dev wishing to fuck we had something visual to indicate reference types so my coworkers could stop misusing them

do you log in to codeberg?

The best kind of correct.

likewise, with ligatures!

on the one hand, yes, I write software and take showers when I’m stumped because it’s a great way to think through it.

on the other hand the world didn’t need an article about it.

beautiful kids 😊

in a world with dwindling resources people are satisfied with something they already own. sounds wonderful.

yeah the issue honestly is how much someone else has to read to understand your code. it’s weird because the whole article is about making readable code for the next person and he never stops to address the fact that leaving 10x as much code to read might also make life more difficult.

I feel like he just wanted to make a point about how it’s nice to make types immutable and suggest other techniques can be worth implementing too, which I agree with, but honestly his premise is a trainwreck.

I’m happy people are sharing stuff to Lemmy, it’s been a little quiet.

I definitely value the Forbes article over the MSN but we might not be talking about it if we hadn’t seen this post. let’s not be too critical when people are participating positively.

that’s literally the whole point of this?

the point of this is a new youtube is unlikely to take off because people can’t start using it without missing all their regular content.

this means you can keep all your regular content and add new sources, with the same creators, which means they can start to move to new platforms and take their followers. that’s how we’ll replace youtube.

it’s so good, wish I’d found it sooner

I did that once when I moved from one DB IDE to another and didn’t realise the new one only ran the highlighted part of the query.

there were thousands of medical students going through a long process to find placements with doctors and we had a database and custom state machine to move them through the stages of application and approval.

a bug meant a student had been moved to the wrong state. so I used a snippet of SQL to reset that one student, and as a nervous habit highlighted parts of the query as I reread them to be sure it was correct.

then hit run with the first half highlighted, without the where clause, so everyone in the entire database got moved to the wrong fucking state.

we had 24 hourly backups but I did it late in the evening, and because it was a couple of days before the hard deadline for the students to get their placements done hundreds of students had been updating information that day.

I spent until 4am the next day working out ways to imply what state everyone was in by which other fields had been updated to what, and incidentally found the original bug in the process 😒

anyway, I hope you feel better soon buddy. it sucks but it happens, and not just to you. good luck.

sorry 😔

How does that work?!

mind you if there was reasonable social security like a payment to the jobless, exploitation like that would be harder. It feels like countries like the US fight social security to make it easier to pay people almost nothing, by keeping the danger of homelessness and lack of healthcare real.

not presuming you’re in the US, that income would honestly make more sense in a less developed part of the world. I hope that’s not an insult 😬
