  • Related book recommendation!!

    Kil'n People by David Brin - it's a futuristic Murder Mystery Novel about a society where people copy their consciousnesses to temporary clay clones to do mundane tasks for them. Got some really interesting discussions about what constitutes personhood!

  • Yup, exactly! So a calculation-only module that doesn't have a frontend would never have any TS Code in my case.

    The classification of language -> task makes sense! I'm thinking of the weird college courses that wanted Java frontends lol

    But how would you generalize that for a resume? Say you've used C# both for making backends and making frontends in separate projects. Would any sort of classification make sense in that case?

  • I'd love for someone more experienced to chime in, but on first glance the classification of JavaScript/Typescript as backend strikes me as weird.

    That may just be because the team I work with uses a React/Typescript/Java/Postgres stack and we specifically classify the Typescript as part of the Frontend. Maybe it's different in different companies?

    I'm sure that a Typescript backend could work perfectly fine, it's just semantics 🤷

  • The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the Age that gave it birth comes again. In one Age, called the Third Age by some, an Age yet to come, an Age long past, a Skibidi Toilet Video was uploaded. Skibidi Toilet was not the beginning. There are neither beginnings nor endings to the turning of the Wheel of Time. But it was a beginning.

  • My homeoffice setup is right next to a window, so it's too bright for dark mode during the summer. So I work in light mode from about April-September and in dark mode for the rest of the year

  • I'm wildly attracted to both of those people and just call it Bisexuality. Classifying attraction is kinda dumb anyway, as there's no point in setting up heuristics that will have that many edge cases and exceptions.

  • Reminds me of that one time Nazi Furries created their own convention for "Real American free speech non-SJW Furrys", where they invited all the "anti cancel culture" weirdos.

    Went well the first year, but then the convention owner cheated on her husband or something, so the anti cancel culture peeps cancelled her. Flopped the second year. They're trying for a third year soon afaik, I wonder how that goes.

    Youtube link to a 2 hour documentary about it

  • Yesterday I drove by Düsseldorf, which is Germany's most Weeaboo city, and they had this ugly fucking mural at their train station.

    I don't mind most anime/manga based media, but media about anime/manga makes me really uncomfortable. Defining yourself by the fact you like Anime is just a lot weirder than defining yourself by the fact you like JJBA or InitalD.

  • JS is absolute chaos programming and I love that way too much. You can just feel all the caffeine ingested by the guy who had to pull long nights to ship JS within 10 days. That's exactly the vibe I'm going for with my code.

  • You're right! That's actually a really cool point about Generator functions too, them having while(true) loops is very unproblematic :D

    I'm correcting myself to:

    function* sorry() { while(true){ yield "I'm sorry"; } }

  • I'll do you one better

    function* sorry() { yield "I'm sorry"; }

    Call sorry.next().value as many times as you need to baby, hell you can even use it in a for-of loop because Generator functions are Iterable. I fucking love JavaScript
