I can’t believe we still have to justify writing unit tests to management in the year 2024

Nah, hackthebox and many other red team simulation type sites have strict rules of engagement. You’re there to solve a puzzle as defined by hackthebox, not get around the puzzle by hacking hackthebox.

The amount of people who say they do agile/kanban/scrum but have never talked to a customer/end user, let alone released something, is frightening

You don’t necessarily need types for that kind of thing though, a strict linter that flags that code works just as well

We used to do this with thumb drives. You can get a 128G usb3 thumb drive these days for like 20 bucks in the checkout line of most electronics stores. Cool things about a thumb* drive is I don’t need to pay a subscription fee for it, it doesn’t need an Internet connection, and it isn’t liable to be rifled through by Microsoft unless Bill Gates comes to your house and steals it from you.

Socialism wouldn’t pay you to do science, but it would give you a universal basic income, so you could do science without needing to be paid if you wanted

Compiling to bash seems awesome

See, i disagree because

I don’t think anyone other than the person who wrote it in amber will run a bash file that looks like machine-generated gibberish on their machine.

Lol I barely want to run (or read) human generated bash, machine generated bash sounds like a new fresh hell that I don’t wanna touch with a ten foot pole.

and who will till the soil, weed, fight pests, harvest, etc.

In the case of a home garden, the homeowners, just like it’s expected for a homeowner to care for all the other plants on their property.

In the case of an allotment/community garden, community members would provide the labor. That’s how they currently work.

I mean I get it. I’m a rich white person with a lot of leisure time and I own property where I can have a garden… but turns out not everyone has this stuff.

I’m confused what the problem is - just because you know some people that wouldn’t benefit from a home garden subsidy, doesn’t make it a bad idea, if it encourages more people to grow food at home. It’s not a one-size-fits-all solution to be sure, but it is a solution that would work for some, with little to no downside that I can conceive of.

Also the whole “you need a lot of land if you want to garden” thing is kind of a myth. You can do a surprising amount in containers, with vertical systems, or even indoors with grow lights or hydroponics these days.

Edit to address your edit:

Gardening is great. But jerking myself off and generalizing and saying everyone else should be doing what i have the luxury to do… just makes me a smug self-righteous ass. People buy food from stores because it’s convenient and fast.

I don’t think anyone’s saying “everyone should garden”, just “more people should garden”. The original suggestion we’re discussing was to subsidize gardening, which would help reduce the barrier to entry and make it a more attractive option. Option being the keyword there - subsidizing something doesn’t mean everyone has to do it, and it certainly isn’t an attempt to belittle or shame anyone that can’t or doesn’t want to garden.

I only get my Milkis from the most authentic sources - from a GS25 in Hongdae at 3am, stumbling in after several drinks and a pack of long island iced tea cigarettes smoked in the club, paired with a bulgogi kimbap

Kefir or my personal favorite, yogurt flavored Milkis

Nice, thanks for the info!

Feel free to enlighten me

Not to “um, actually”, but I’m gonna “um actually” - technically, using git to host code in a decentralized fashion has been a standard capability of git since it’s inception. So it’s not really a new idea, just a new iteration

Lemmy comments have sound now

Don’t put words in my mouth.

a more sensible default would be -A

No it wouldn’t. You’d have git beginners committing IDE configs and secrets left and right if -A was the default behavior.

vim, less a text editor and more a cruel joke of figuring out how to exit it.

Esc, :, q. Sure it’s a funny internet meme to say vim is impossible to quit out of, but any self-respecting software developer should know how, and if you don’t, you have google. If you think this is hard, no wonder you struggle with git.

it chose defaults that made sense to the person programming it, not to the developer using it and interacting with it.

Just because you don’t like the defaults doesn’t mean they don’t make sense. It just means you don’t understand the (very good) reasons those defaults were chosen.

Git has a steep learning curve not because it’s necessary but because it chose defaults that made sense to the person programming it, not to the developer using it and interacting with it.

Git’s authors were the first users. The team that started the linux kernel project created it and used it because no other version control tool in existence at that time suited their needs. The subtle implication that you, as a user of git, know better than the authors, who were the original users, is laughable.
