Debugger good for microscopic surgery, log stream good for real time macro view. Both perspectives needed.

lazygit is seriously so good, it’s a shame so many people write it off because it’s not some beautiful Apple GUI. it’s an extremely efficient productivity tool.

Aw gee guys we are soooo sowwyyyy that we hurt your feefees

Well, the intent behind adding DRM at first is to maximize profit by making piracy more difficult. Trust me I hate DRM too, but it’s not like they add it for no reason.

I feel like this is just a new cash grab technique, and it’s actually pretty smart. The audience of people who will buy immediately despite DRM will do their thing, first wave of money complete. Over the next few years, trickle in more cash through steam sales. Once that well dries, get one more wave of cash by removing DRM, which appeases the audience that abstained the whole time, collecting their cash.

Edit: my half baked conspiracy theory got some attention. the argument that companies remove DRM like Denuvo because of cost makes way more sense, Occam’s razor holds true. Both can be true, they save money by removing the DRM, which has the nice side-effect of creating a small new wave of sales. Win/win. I’m sure Denuvo hates this and will one day make it more difficult for studios to just remove their software, because money.

YAML comes with its own unique pains in the ass https://ruudvanasseldonk.com/2023/01/11/the-yaml-document-from-hell

These things actually matter, come up often enough to actually be annoying, and are a bit difficult to explain and learn into people. You’re basically fine if you just string quote everything that you can, but nobody does that.

I wish every language had a gofmt, this is such a non-debate (tabs are indentation, spaces are alignment)

TAKE! CONTROL!

MULTI-TRACK DRIFTING!! Which also kills the other lever guy, bonus!

These would actually make for a very hilarious tournament of sorts…

To be that dick, a headless component library is still meant to do something, show an example of it being used!

Would be funnier if it was just “JS” on the right, because obviously HTML and CSS are involved too, but JS is where all hell breaks loose

The encryption: base64 encoding

Nah lol I’m good

We may be pretty fucking dumb, but I don’t think disregard for spelling things correctly on the internet is a strictly American quality lol

Apple created this entire market, and the entire market completely just doesn’t actually matter. If people stopped playing stupid fucking games on their phones, society wouldn’t collapse. It’s much much different than, say, health care companies putting a stranglehold on the industry they have created. People die because if they go to the hospital they will be in debt for the rest of their lives. I get it, fuck tech monolopies, but I find this one really hard to care about personally.
