  • I didn't even start listening to music until I was already an adult.

  • Something something history is a flat circle

  • At one point long ago (just for a short while), I thought Delphi was destined to take that place. It was much higher level while still letting you go as low level as you wanted- it didn't have garbage collection but it made it pretty easy to keep track of what is or isn't allocated, on top of having good tools to find leaks on runtime. But it had too many problems too: the Pascal base and the association with drag and drop coders being some of the first ones, followed by a series of bad decisions by whatever company was responsible for it at any given week.

  • What's something small someone did for you that made a big difference?

  • When I was 18 I moved to a small apartment near my job, two cities over from where I had lived all my life. At that time I was very depressed, with absolutely no faith in humanity anymore, thinking that everyone was greedy and selfish. Then winter came and a coworker asked me if I had enough blankets to get by, offering to lend me some. I didn't need it, but the offer alone was enough to break me. At that point in my life I really didn't believe people were capable of doing even the smallest thing for others without getting something in return.

  • As long as it runs the same code, yes. But things may change, clients may pre-emptively split the string or stuff like that.

  • Imagine getting a multi byte character at the right position to get it split so that one byte gets in and the other doesn't.

  • A second vote for Core Keeper here. I think it's a safer option than Terraria, which could also be a good option but isn't for everyone.

  • Why isn't Near Death Experience research taken more seriously?

  • Well, to begin with you would have to start nearly killing people. If it doesn't happen in a controller environment, the collected data doesn't mean much.

  • June and July deserve to share the same U too. In some languages it's only the N/L that changes between them.

  • Huh, this sort of issue is what made me leave KDE in the first place. Haven't had such problems on gnome.

  • AI coders think they’re 20% faster — but they’re actually 19% slower

  • I'm not saying it's good, I'm saying I expected it to be even worse.

  • I agree it's pretty stupid to pay a tax just for owning something. Let's change it so they pay it every time they use it. Much more fair.

  • Damn now how am I gonna live without "Change my cursor to Sims 4"?

  • Reading the paper, AI did a lot better than I would expect. It showed experienced devs working on a familiar code base got 19% slower. It's telling that they thought they had been more productive, but the result was not that bad tbh.

    I wish we had similar research for experienced devs on unfamiliar code bases, or for inexperienced devs, but those would probably be much harder to measure.

  • Israel plans to concentrate entire Gaza population into 'humanitarian city'

  • Wife has been binging Law and Order SVU recently and I noticed there's a lot of episodes where they have abused children turn into abusive adults, with the explanation that it's a natural response of the brain trying to get in a position where it will never be vulnerable again.

    No idea if that theory has any merit, but if true I wonder if that can also happen in a larger scale, to an entire society instead of just to an individual.

  • Back in school, one of my first sex ed classes, teacher says: "boys have a factory of sperm in their bodies".

    Me, trying to be funny: "oh so that's why sometimes there's smoke coming out of my mouth?"

    Thankfully it landed well with the classmates, but the teacher was really worried I took it literally.
