No there’s lots of different kinds of people. Some people work a full 9-5 chained to their desks, and others get their work done early so they can go and live their lives to the fullest. The point of WFH is flexibility: I don’t need permission to go walk my dog or fold laundry. As long as I get my assigned work done, who cares WHEN or HOW or WHERE I do it

Engineer Syndrome. You get mildly good enough at writing Javascript to sell a product and then assume that means you can fix all of society’s problems

Yeah but then you either need to compile and redistribute binaries for several platforms, or make sure that each target user has rust/cargo installed. Plus some devs don’t trust compiled binaries in something like an npm package

You haven’t used windows in like 30 years? It’s quite different now lol

Most common development platform in the world

I try to write things to be cross-platform; with node builds, I avoid anything using shell scripting so that we can support Windows builds as well. As such, I usually write the deployment scripts in Node itself, but sometimes python if it’s supported by our particular CI/CD pipeline

Terrible website with some legitimately hilarious but completely unironic posts from what I can only surmise are the human equivalent of NPCs.

Fuck:

• Meta
• Google
• Amazon
• TikTok
• Reddit

I am of the opinion that production software shouldn’t be written in shell languages. If it’s something which needs to be redistributed, I would write it in python or something

Unironically love powershell

Because it’s made out of cheese. Legally if you take something that is cheese and use it as an ingredient in another food, then it is no longer “cheese”, it is “cheese food”. The first ingredient is cheddar

The internet peaked in utility around 2004. Most, if not all, developments since then have only made things worse

Who gives a fuck what Sergey brin thinks

Waterfox’s creator, while not being HOSTILE to privacy, has said in the past that making the most private browser in the world is not the goal of the project. The goal is a more customizable browser for power users

Yeah lemmy.ml is leaking again

It’s alright. I work with it every day and constantly wish it had RTTI

I used to think I hated vegetables as a kid. Turns out I hated my parents “cooking”

I almost always plug mine into my dock and run it with a controller lol, rarely use it as an actual handheld

There is, in fact, something wrong with having a sexual fetish for animals
