  • I am going to toot my own horn... Or rather: MIT's horn.

    https://thaumatorium.com/articles/mit-courses/mit.drawio.svg

    This is a graph of most of MIT's CompSci courses, where the lines are dependencies. If you want to learn something on the right, learn the connected things on the left.

    While there are video courses, the top link in each block links to MIT pages where they tend to recommend books for each course. The algorithm courses recommend "Introductions into Algorithms, Fourth Edition", for example.

    I hope it helps (even if I don't think this is the be-all end-all to your question).

  • "descent"; being decent is luckily not punishable with death 😂

    edit: I'm an idiot. It's "dissent". Going down a cave is not punishable by death either. English is hard.

  • screen is like tmux, right? So you can split your CLI, open a new window/tab to open more Bash/Vim instances?

  • currency = capitalism

    u wot mate? If that was the case then we would always have had Capitalism, which we've obviously did not. You need a system that supports inserting capital into random companies to get to Capitalism, not (just) currency.

  • satay-sauce

    I've been on the internet since 1996 or so, and this is the first mention (in English) of Satay. Amazing.

    Satay with some mayo is nice as well.

  • Some good kebab helps too, probably due to the fat and salt, but water over kebab, if you have to choose.

  • Thoughts

    Jump
  • You are now breathing manually. Take that, OP!

  • Fight me.

    Can we do a Blueyathon instead, so we can see all the foreshadowing they've secretly been doing all along? Take the Winton foreshadowing of his dad bumping into the mom of one of the other kids at a store... ::: spoiler spoiler some two episodes before it's even revealed that they like each other, and then even later THEY are the people that sell their house (with a pool) that the poodles end up buying instead of Bluey's house, because Winton's dad moves out of his house to live with the other mom! :::

    It's such a good show.

  • I remember Reddit helping to make a kid do his homework.

  • People kept complaining about “karma farmers”

    I remember the "Reddit is just you, me and /u/karmanaut" meme from 2008. He was the original "karma farmer". It was a problem since the early days due to how they setup Reddit as a system. It just enforced his behaviour.

  • I feel there's this trend where movie directors must and shall make their own story in whatever world is in front of them, instead of trying to make a movie that would fit in the game, or simply take the game's story and make a movie out of that.

    It's why Lord of The Ring was so fucking good (Christopher Lee/Saruman read the books every year of his life, and corrected Peter Jackson whenever necessary), whereas Rings of Power is shit (I mean, a loving Orc family? What the FUCK have they been snorting!?). It's also why I'm hopeful to get something good out of Henry Cavill directing any 40k movie (that, or we're getting nothing, at best. At worst someone else takes over and we're getting female custodes for no good reason).

  • OK, so it's going to be a shitty movie and no one is going to watch it, other than YouTubers, so they can dunk on the movie.

    This is a second shitty movie with Black Jack in it. Lets hope he's not a trend setter.

  • And lack of trailing comma's

  • and no possibility of (a lack of) trailing comma's. Unless you use JSON inside Yaml, you heathens!

  • Depends on the data structure. If you want to save a table of sorts, you're getting a bunch of unreadable [[[]]] nonsense.

    For flat structures it's great though.

  • That lack of trailing comma has been the bane of my existence.
