Wait !programmer_humor@programming.dev is broken for you? For me in Jeroba that's one of the communities that's been working just fine this whole time, unless the recent maintenance broke it the last post I have is from yesterday.
EDIT: Ok, so clicking your link, or even my link gives an error saying community can't be found but I can still pull it up from my subscriptions, so it was either broken by this maintenance or something weird is going on
Yeah I agree, they are but I guess what I'm trying to get at is in day to day conversation I use "programming language" as a term for compiled languages hence "real" and "scripting language" for scripting languages. I never say "real" in conversation, just in the context of this post and as I mentioned it's not to say scripting languages aren't good languages, just how I separate them. Your distinction is much better in more comparative dialog such as this
I'm aware of the increasing prevalence of JIT, that doesn't change the other markers I listed. Ironically though the language the post is about, CPython still lacks JIT. Also I disagree in general, there are things scripting languages can't do and will never be practical for. It's not that they aren't useful programming languages, that's not what I'm saying but I think having a separate category for them is useful.
I personally draw a distinction between "real" programming languages and scripting languages. Scripting languages being languages that are traditionally source distributed. They tend to be much easier to write, run slower, often but not always dynamically typed, and operate at a higher level than "real" programming languages. That's not to say they aren't actually useful or difficult to learn etc. It's not a demeaning separation, just a useful categorization IMO. Not to say the categorization always holds water in all those attributes, luajit is way faster than Java but it does follow the other bits. As someone who loves C there are lots of languages that seem too limiting and high level, doesn't mean they aren't useful tho.
Yes, honestly this situation reminds me a lot of the LTT trying Linux and destroying his system by installing steam despite apt warning him in the best way it really could that he probably didn't want to do that. Sure the package shouldn't have been in that state in a stable distro but shit happens. It goes to that point of, users will go through great lengths to achieve the end goal blindly jumping past warnings on the way no matter how dire they might be.
It's not a bug, it's intentional. They consider changes to be any change since the last commit including in untracked files. They did update it to make this behavior a lot more obvious though.
Huh, weird. The rest of these are pretty closely related technologies but I'm not sure I'd consider a web framework and a pre boxed website builder all that similar
What is the ruby on rails supposed to be?...looks like ruby on rails with off colors to me, I can't place that logo. The rest of these are truly cursed tho
He said they're not going to change it, just make the dialog a lot more clear and add a second button to it that will only do a reset without the clean.

The first thing I noticed is there's no IPv6 on this website, just like the real thing -_-
