Ow. That one hurt.

But I do non-pointless tricks too. Soon. I'm just waiting for the less technical people to find Lemmy so I can help them with weird tech problems and easy programming questions. Like I did on that other site.

I was expecting some rando to comment on this with his fediverse username related to something poop-knify. Might still happen.

I dislike magic. Theres so much stuff you never learn if you rely on magic. Like most people got no clue what a csproj file contains. And neither did I. Just a bunch of xml lines grouped seemingly randomly. And sln files are hard (not impossible) to create or modify without that dotnet sln magic (or VS gui).

And despite not being a vim user myself even I had to laugh at how those article authors completely missed the point of vim. 🤣

Huh.

I asked it to tell me a joke, which it did. But when I asked for another, it quite grumpily replied that it was made to help with code, not to tell jokes.

Recipes are code now?

"I could have done this in half the time with X."

"Now is NOT the time to change framework!"

Counter point: Any creator blindly putting random ad networks on their site doesn't care about their users. Every ad should be vetted and served by the creator, those kinda ads are impossible to mass-block. If an ad swindles a user, it should be the creators reputation thats at stake.

I stopped having a bad conscience for blocking when one blog who begged promised to not autoplay any audio. The very next day it of course showed a very loud ad, and the creator excused it with "he didn't have any control over what the advertisement network showed".

My mother told me cats reacted better to names if it began with 'S'. So we had Sara, Sigurd, Severin, Suveren, Seraph and a few others I no longer remember.

If I ever get an apartment big enough to have pets, I'll probably continue the tradition.

People like that has always existed. We just didn't give them media coverage.

Must be sad to be a crazy scientists today. "They laughed at me and called me crazy for thinking the moon is made of cheese? They'll pa.." "No actually you got like 150 followers on Bird-app who agree." It just isn't the same. 🙄
