- codr7I bet 100% of them had been drinking water recently.
- If that's the only price, I'll take it.
- Sure, if we make it through the AI storm.
- But it's doing something novel, something the same people haven't done before, otherwise there would be no point in writing it.
- Couldn't agree more!
You develop a sense for when the time is right over the years, by maintaining over engineered pieces of shit, many written by yourself.
To beginners it seems like coming up with the idea and building it is the difficult part; it isn't, not even close. The only difficult parts worth mentioning is keeping complexity on a tight leash and maintaining conceptual integrity.
- I've never used auto correct, and likely never will; it's the first thing I turn off on a new phone.
Part of the problem for me is communicating in multiple languages, switching back and forth. It just ends up causing more frustration and mistakes.
- I've done several custom frameworks for solo projects in Java & Go, all based on server generated content, inspired by Seaside but more RESTy.
Also used Flask and similar libraries for back ends.
Did one project in Rails, which was a pretty bad experience in comparison, and killed any motivation to look into Django.
Also did plenty of Spring in Java professionally, unfortunately.
- As long as you don't give a shit about data integrity, you don't need foreign keys.
- I don't think blaming this mess on users makes much sense.
Smartphones on the other hand...
- Maybe if they could learn how to switch their intelligence on, that would help more?
- I can see why Microsoft likes AI and thinks it's great for writing code.
The kind of code AI writes is the kind of code Microsoft has always written.
- I'm not convinced building nuclear plants to generate fake crap faster is here to stay, it better not or we're toast.
- Used to last decades, the world didn't move at this speed before.
- Except for Kotlin, which is a much nicer language to deal with.
- Yep, all my new stuff is on Gitlab.
- Thiel is a creepy fuck, as are most tech bros.
I mean, he looks perfectly human; but once he opens his mouth.
- Isn't this exactly the mess Zig is trying to get out of here?
Every other example I've seen encodes the execution model in the source code.
- Libraries or cafés for me, I need some kind of outer stimuli to keep me going.
Most offices unfortunately drain my will to live real fast.
Maybe if we tried to build offices what people enjoy spending time in...
- Love it, async code is a major pita in most languages.
