Yes a subscription service for my… mouse please that sounds like an improvement.

Make all tools obtrusive lets go

What do you write in it? Languages, tech stack etc

I like NeoVIM, but in the end it got a bit frustrating to get the tooling to behave, like language server for Guile, especially when the configuration was half config format, half Lua code, third half referencing those from Vim.

In Emacs everything - code, config, invocations - are jus lisp. And the ecosystem is a bit more mature for the tools I use in our current codebase.

Programmer here.

Clicking things in elaborate IDE GUIs and copying stuff they don’t understand appears widespread because it’s easy to teach and make a video about, but it’s not it.

My days are spent in Emacs, (used to be Vim), and a Bash terminal. I sometimes use an more “fancy” IDE for a year or two but I always realize they slow me down and make me stupid.

I write code I understand based on system models I discuss with the team. My time is spent thinking about the models, learning the components I work with, debugging, etc. While all of these involve typing up some code, only 5% or so is writing actually “finished” code.

Yes. Any box with a loose lid will do.

The traditional “smørtine” my great grandparents used for this purpose is just a wooden box with a loose lid that they painted fancy.

Start your day with a challenge: keep it in the fridge

Just say you used it to optimize the workflow. They don’t understand enough about this to check the claim.

All femimist authors attract a following of dudes who, despite not being antifeminist when asked, somehow always manage to find abnormal amounts of energy to repeatedly and loudly criticize them for objective faults.

Energy and time they rarely manage to find for criticizing authors who are not feminist.

No matter what, you are still you.

A diagnosis, or a professionally assessed lack of one, can only help you understand better.

You kick at empty space. Dumb move! You strain a muscle.

You kicked a doorway with an open door, a broken door, or no door.

“Ok so he’s corrupt but he also helped provoke one of the most brutal wars our generation has ever seen and made me look good for threatening to stop supplying them with bombs, so can’t you cut him some slack?”

A frequent frustration is recursive guilt-by-association.

“Yeah so okay we do align on everything however you refuse to denounce your friend who didn’t really do anything but he is a fan of a controversial figure who also didn’t really say or do much but they are friends with a bad person so… Get lost?”

Another is translation based on the assumption that one’s assumptions are universal.

“You said you think Terry Davis was a technical genius for his OS. Honestly his work is nothing compared to a modern OS. I think so so therefore you must think so, and so you must mean something else. What you are really praising is his extremist christianity.”

Europe. Technically meat eater but not an “identity” and generally prefer veggie.

This rule makes no intuitive sense, or factual sense. It sounds like one of those US-specific things that have spread through “everyone knows” like the 3 second rule.

We have other nonsense rules here, basically.

Yeah that was kinda my point :) A cloud controlled device from a tech giant is supposed to shit on the floor start doing ads and invade your privacy. It’s what they do. Like ponies pooping, you should expect it on purchase.

It’s a reasonable explanation.

Cesium is highly radioactive, and the sensors are very sensitive.

When Iceland had the Huefaleflefthaflafla volcano outbreak, I could smell the sulphur from my house. In Norway. More than 1500 km / 900 miles across half the atlantic ocean.

So radioactive smoke being detectable 1.5 miles away makes sense to me.

My pet pony keeps shitting on the floor.

I am very frustrated and did not expect it.

I should sell it off and buy a horse instead.

If you are not willing to listen, don’t pretend to ask questions.

Not quite like that. There is an internal wifi that I can’t get onto, and a public “guest” wifi that half of the tech staff uses and VPNs from.

Basically the protected wifi only really works on locked-down windows machines, and those aren’t usable for most developers. It’s mostly mac and linux there, and while the protected wifi is supposed to work on those, the IT staff don’t know how.

Well, I do. But it’s because the security layers on the wifi are more strict than on the VPN to such a degree that I can’t actually connect to it from my work laptop.

Ah, sorry this is me being actually stupid. I was looking up normal drives. My apologies.

Yeah we’d have to filter this a bit.
