You do understand the concept of a speed limit, right?

It’s funny how the ‘acceptable’ amount to go over the speed limit is always 10. No matter if it’s kph or mph. It’s 10.

I know, but for most memes a single line of text is insufficient.

50 million users have an extra 3 seconds of unnecessary lag in a day because you wanted to hit tab rather than write code? That's nearly 5 years of cumulative wasted time.

As if anyone cared if they had to wait a total of 3 seconds in a workday. If it’s a second per user action, we’re talking, but this is some bare-metal CPU wrangler’s take on how ‘efficient’ code should behave; completely disregarding that most users who touch a computer need 5 seconds to type ‘hi’ into MS Teams.

Most engineers already write bloated, abstracted, glacial code that burns CPU cycles like a California wildfire. Clean code? Ha! You’re writing for other programmers’ academic circlejerk, not the hardware.

It’s interesting that everybody else preaches ‘Write for the human first, for the machine second’.

You want real connection to code? You earn that. You dig in. You wrestle with segfaults at 3 in the morning. You pace your apartment muttering about pointer arithmetic. You burn through Handmade Hero until you get it.

Absolutely the best learning happens at 3AM. This guy is selling being overworked to the breaking point as some kind of rite of passage. That’s not working. Or learning. It’s the road to sucking off a 9mm 4 weeks later.

Well, I’ve done that… partially. However, since I’m not a top-1‰ superstar rock-dev, my solutions took several attempts, still make a lot of assumptions, and are generally kinda bad.

Until I’ve reached an actually good boilerplate automator, Copilot has its place.

Looking at the fringes between colors, the last panel looks upscaled to me. Maybe the AI invented a price sticker?

Looks awesome, thanks for the tip!

I’ll get in line behind you.

Soo… Hollow Knight. I’ve been looking for a Metroidvania game and this popped up. How does it compare to Metroid? From the trailer footage and the reviews it looks more of a super-precise platformer like Celeste with lots of cruel boss fights.

The pointer itself does not contain the physical address and its value but only communicates the existence of the physical address and its value.

So you’re telling me 0xDEADBEEF does not contain the physical address of the thing it points to?

think there should be a law against blocking password managers for filling in fields.

I’ve never heard of anyone trying to do that. I couldn’t even imagine how a website could detect a password manager.

We have figured out passwords. Management hasn’t figured out allocating resources to security, and governments haven’t figured out fining the crap out of such companies.

I’m trying to not do that, because I always forget that I’ll need the things I’ve just washed again.

1357! is even.

It took me three attempts to parse

We’re this a 2 lane roundabout,

Your mistake is even harder to type than the correct ‘Were’!

I was going to list a whole bunch of things the DETAILS tag doesn’t allow, but it seems that none of these issues actually appear. So either it has evolved since I’ve looked at it last time or I was stupid.

Either way, thanks for talking back.

What’s a native HTML element that mimics Bootstraps Collapse?
