  1. translated: stop questioning why the economy depends on the Infant Crushing Machine continuing to Crush Infants
  2. None of this is surprising, YC is as incestuous as the rest of the industry. Still, it’s worth calling out. This submission will likely be nuked, too.
  3. If you do something stupid in a block marked "unsafe", it's probably on you, my guy.
  4. Posting this from a green account is just pathetic, my guy. Go outside, touch some grass.
  5. oh look, the average golang fan. here’s a challenge for you: explain _why_ the complexity is bad without:

    - resorting to logical fallacies, or

    - relying on your unstated assumption that all complexity is bad

  6. You understand that key rotation can and should be automated, right?
  7. the fat controller laughed, “you are wrong”.

  8. this is almost certainly ai slop
  9. what “work” are you doing, you parasitic hack?
  10. i used protobuffers a lot at $previous_job and i agree with the entire article. i feel the author’s pain in my bones. protobuffers are so awful i can’t imagine google associating itself with such an amateur, ad hoc, ill-defined, user hostile, time wasting piece of shit.

    the fact that protobuffers wasn’t immediately relegated to the dustbin shows just how low the bar is for serialization formats.

  11. i tried to submit a patch to retroarch and it was one of the least pleasant experiences i've had in a while. makefile hell, layers and layers of incomprehensible macros, and spaghetti code everywhere. no thank you. i may be a masochist but i still respect my time.

    jesus christ, you’re not light yagami—please stay on /g/

  13. i will never understand people that are puritains about swearing
  14. american exceptionalism at work
  15. this is not the gotcha you think it is, you just dropped your gluestick
  16. you’ve taken a slightly smaller shit on the floor than the seo slop factory next to you. do you want a medal?
  17. > Tech pundits still seem to commonly assume that UB is so fundamentally entangled in C++’s specification and programs that C++ will never be able to address enough UB to really matter.

    - denial ← you are here

    - anger

    - bargaining

    - depression

    - acceptance

    Cope, seethe, mald, etc.

  18. > 3) The overreliance on dbus turns the “the unix philosophy” ;) away. Text as a universal communication medium, everything is a file, etc.

    have you considered the reality that the "unix philosophy" results in incredibly brittle systems? byte streams ("""plain text""") are untyped and prone to mishaps.

  19. the second i tried writing go to solve a non-trivial problem the whole language collapsed in on itself. footguns upon footguns hand-waved away with "it's the go way!". i just don't understand. the "the go way" feels more like a mantra that discourages critical thinking about programming language design.
  20. the greens could always use more votes
