  • Great meme, and I'm sure op knows this, but for anyone else who is curious...

    007 in theory means:

    • 00: you have already committed your code to your local code base
    • 7: When you try to merge your code with everyone else's there are 7 files that others have worked on since you last refreshed your local code base.

    To resolve this, you need to go file by file and compare your changes with the changes on the remote code. You need to keep the changes others have made and incorporate your own.

    You can use git diff file_name to see the differences.

    If you have made small changes, it's easier to pull and force an overwrite of your local code and make changes again.

    However multiple people working on the same files is usually a sign of organizational issues with management. Ie, typically you don't want multiple people working on the same files at the same time, to avoid stuff like this.

    If you're not sure, ask someone that knows what they're doing before you follow any advice on Lemmy.

  • Whoops

  • If you don't have apt backups, that is a failure of the process, not yours.

  • You can also do this by forgetting a WHERE clause. I know this because I ruined a production database in my early years.

    Always write your where before your insert, kids.

  • Speaking of Java RipS. How annoying is it the JS has left Java in the dust as far as looser standards?

    Developing in Java: YOU FORGOT A SEMI-COLON ARE YOU CRAZY?! HOW IS THE COMPILER SUPPOSED TO KNOW WHAT TO DO?!

    Developing in JS: Who gives a fuck about semi-colons?

  • I love js. But the date object has always been a total pain. Moment.js is a good package to deal with it, but yeah, it's currently deprecated, but it would be nice if it or something like it became part of ECMAScript.

    I have no idea why it hasn't yet, except that it might be that js needs to work for everyone, not just the us. So time is not standard.

  • Dune is exactly what Lucas was copying when he wrote Star wars.

  • No, I'm having a good time seeing how many ways you can call me stupid because you feel so butthurt.

  • Ok buddy. I'm sorry to have upset you.

  • I'm also a data analyst, so I sense sarcasm, but in case you're not:

    A big beef is excel can't handle decimals larger than 6 places iirc. So if you copy/paste, it will delete your data accuracy. Is that not fucking insane? I mean think about that for a second... The most popular data table in the world will delete your data.

    There's a whole laundry list of other things I can complain about, but the bottom line is they bought it from another company, then stopped working on it. It's Microsoft's entire business model: Buy it, charge for it, ignore it.

  • Microsoft Everything.

    Boy, I sure can't wait till VSCode and GitHub become as annoying as excel to use!

  • I'm sure you don't want to hear this, but...

    Nit-picking the minutiae of new ideas may make you feel better, but ignoring the core idea will only hurt you and your creativity in the long run.

    Instead of finding ways that it won't work, you could use the same amount of energy to make the idea better.

  • I feel like Creed is this for me. I started really getting into it ironically, now I fucking love it unironically. My music snob friends will not even acknowledge it's funny. Joke's on them.

  • Fuck. That was my interest.

  • Again I do not want another computer.

  • Yes, a dumb terminal is exactly what I want, but mobile.

  • I'm not sure how to stress this enough... I do not want another computer.

    I do not want another computer.

    I want a wireless interface to the computer I already have.

    1. Mobile hotspot/ my phone's hotspot
    2. Bluetooth Mouse/keyboard combo
    3. Wireless Monitor
    4. Something to convert bluetooth connections to wifi.
    5. A laptop case to put it in.

    If they can make laptops for $37 they can make this for $1.

  • I do not want a remote desktop client. I do not want another computer. I want a screen and keyboard. Do you see the difference?

  • There are still things I use reddit for, but only because Google sucks so much now. Like if I'm looking for the best something to buy, I'll add "reddit" at the end so I don't get pages and pages of ads.

    Otherwise, all my previously reddit-based entertainment comes from Lemmy, especially since all the activists seemed to have gone back. Lemmy is now fun again!
