This is how I type when someone is watching and I don’t know why!


I’m afraid most, if not all, of the projects listed use pride versioning, also.



I mean, it could just do very basic checking…


Not to play the devil’s advocate, but with compiled languages you can just install the language, “run” your script and it’ll work, if not the language will catch undeclared variables for you, and more. With interpreted languages you need to not only install the language but also third party tools for these fairly Barovia things.


I like custom types and them being able to follow custom interfaces; it makes for great type safety that almost no other language can guarantee!

What I’m saying is I’m learning Rust.



For about € 1600 non-smart or € 900 smart in NL.

Nah, 1080p is good enough, even moreso at a metre or 2 from the screen!


I mean, if your monitor or TV is 1080p, why should you waste so much more storage to little-to-no visible improvement?


I can currently visit https://itch.io/ just fine from NL, even without browser cache.

Is this already resolved, or is it only a problem in some regions such as the USA?


This is about making preservation a larger issue, that is to include “legal” preservation.

Also they don’t need any info from you.


It looks like the world is chok full of airports, I didn’t realise there’d be so many!


Or just in general, indigenous people left by themselves.


That’s just Google, it serves you the answer it thinks you want based off your fingerprint, browsing history etc.



Is that… C? With the braces and semicolons placed away, on the right?

I don’t think I like that, sir.


Humour is indeed this.
Is indeed this humour.


Also, Rust allows “unsafe” code for when it’s absolutely necessary; you DO need to add a line that basically says “I know compiler, don’t stop me”. To keep up the metaphor; Rust allows you to cut yourself with the knife, but ensures you’re fully aware of what you’re doing.



My point exactly! But naw, several others on the team insisted this guy policing others manually is better than putting a linter in the pipeline.

I don’t work there anymore, this is one of the (minor) reasons.


Had a colleague who would comment things like “add a newline here” as well as things that were fully his own preference.

That was the only time I closed comments without replying to them or fixing them, without feeling bad.


Before: Just a dude
After: Just a gal

EDIT I GIMPed this

Meme claiming the pilot became a happy catperson pilot after coding Rust



Seems to work for me, now.

I’m on ttrpg.network, using the Jerboa client on Android.


That would be

Theirs is a little different…


As soon as I make more than a script, I’m using a debugger.

I really can’t wrap my head around how so many of my colleagues in the professional work field just print wherever until they find their problem.

print statements feel like touching around in pitch darkness until I found what I sought, compared to a debugger which feels like just seeing my room and daylight while finding what I sought.


I’ve had this with Rust once, t’was a weird feeling.


Once Gabe is dead steam will do the same, and I am planning for that too now.

Why do you make it sound like Steam being decent is because of Gabe Newell, and not because of the culture there?
Oh shit no, Gabe, please be immortal!


It’s because if you turn it 90° to the right, it looks like Elvis’ hair with two eyes underneath!


The paradigm breaks if anything is logged?

I feel like I’m missing a few steps in the logic.


“help patent trolls” is a very confusing statement, as “patent” can be a verb or a noun in this case. “help patent abuse” would be much clearer.


Does external logging not happen outside of OOP?

If so, why not?


Lots of things with a GUI, but games are better left for ECS.



You can also run them using the correct Proton prefix directly.

ProtonTricks can help make this a lot easier and more graphical.


Millenials grew up using BASIC on Windows 3?!

Millenials were teenagers possibly learning coding starting from 1995, the world was using C++ on Windows 95 at best.


You’re not disproving their point, though.

If anything, if the opposition is like this, it makes them seem all the more credible…


Why are you using Vim for this? Vim actually allows you to change the cursor position and select text with the mouse if your terminal supports it.



DDG makes it quite the statement that they don’t personalise your search in any way, to the point where you can pick which country’s tailored results you want from a dropdown.
