  • RSS readers are great and although they have falling out of favor, they certainly aren't dead. The fall in usage of RSS is directly correlated with the fall in the number of people reading blogs on a daily basis.

  • I agree, my highschool often just stated mathematical equations without explaining what they were. They told us you find the sidelength using sin and gave js a formula and thats it. They didn't say what sin actually was/represented, how to calculate by hand or even show us the classic unit circle like on this website https://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/unit-circle.html

  • Although I do believe Javascript is a mess, I'd have to disagree with that. The problem with Javascript and to an extent all client side code is that people uses as a everything tool not neccesarily the language being at fault. People should start to realize handling logic on the backend is perfectly fine and is often better as you don't need to send several megabytes just to load a simple web page. If we decided to replace Javascript with Python we just recreate the same problem that plagues the modern web.

  • But there are languages that require varying degrees of effort to become natural. Something like Malbolge will pretty much never be natural while something like Python can become natural to you in a few days.

  • Shorter is usually faster so your right on that account but not always. There are few things like optimizing for cache hits that can vastly speed up programs but are hard to do. Most slow programs are due to technical debt, high dependencies usage, mixed with laziness and lack of interest in developers with speeding up their program.

  • I need basically just my config files since projects are on gitlab. I will probably just zip them all up and store in cloud storage on dropbox and then redownload or try to access the ubuntu home paritition from Garuda if that is possible.
