I mean I agree but you don’t have to be a dick about it

I don’t get the hatred for types, they have saved my ass so many times and saved so many headaches exactly like what the article describes. I used to write a lot of ruby and after getting decent at typescript I can’t go back.

It’s not just ceremony, types ensure some level of logical consistency in your app. They reduce how much of the world you need to keep in your head at one time, and they allow you to express your intent far more robustly than comments and naming can. I love rust’s approach of making invalid state not even representable.

Yeah, docker in a VM makes sense. Docker in docker in a vm in a vm though?

People don’t actually do this, right? Docker inside docker inside a VM inside another VM? On windows? Right???

Seems fine, but you’re sorta hitting two fields at once. Application development (coding) is a different skill set from devops/deployment (docker). I’d stay pretty surface level on docker and the CLI for now and focus on building your app. You’ll know when you need to go off and learn those things.

ignorance is bliss

I just think finger pointing on the left is dumb, especially considering we don’t have proper breakdowns yet. Nobody has any good data, they’re just restating their opinions as the reason we lost.

the fuck is a chegg?

Maybe I’m not that smart, but shouldn’t we blame the fascists and the people who voted for the fascists for the impending fascism?

We all have every vaccine you can get. It’s possible I’m misremembering exactly what disease it was, but I promise you that a single instance of our kid in a ball pit ruined a vacation for two families.

Ballpits encourage contact with eyes, mouth, and nose, then spread it all around over the balls. They are especially difficult to clean. It would be difficult to design a better disease transmission vector if you were trying.

Speaking as a parent with a horrible experience involving rotavirus:

NEVER, under ANY circumstances should you allow your kid into a ball pit. Just fucking don’t, they are gross and your whole family will puke and shit for days.

Your best option by far is to overwrite windows completely. For most software development Linux is way better anyway.

I haven’t done this recently enough to guide you on the details, but step zero is to decide whether you are certain you want to dual boot or not. It adds a lot of complexity and brittleness that is best avoided if at all possible.

• Try to find Linux compatible replacements for the software you need.
• if that doesn’t exist, see if you can run it on Linux with wine.
• If that isn’t possible, consider running windows inside a virtual machine on Linux.
• If you do want honest, bare-metal windows then using two different physical drives will be easier and more reliable. Ideally your laptop has room for two drives, otherwise you can dangle a USB SSD (not a flash drive). Windows won’t install to a USB drive but Linux doesn’t care.

Yeah, I tried it but that experience isn’t as good as a native app. No swipe gestures, and an extremely basic UI

Miniflux has served me very well for years, combined with a few different apps. Reeder on iOS, I can’t remember what I used on android but there were plenty of options

Tractor pulls

Reminds me of outer wilds

It’s the only time normies encounter the word.

How do you feel about crypto?

They don’t have to, algorithms do whatever they are designed to do. Long division is an algorithm.

Profit motives are the issue here.
