It’s pretty close, you just don’t want to admit it because you’ve been taught to hate that word.

It’s pretty close, not sure why you’re being so belligerent over this.

Yes it is. It always is.

No it just fucking isn’t. You really think every place of work magically has dozens of free apartments close to it and you can just hop to a different one every time you change jobs? What fucking fantasy land do you live in?

Also, choosing to live away from work is a choice.

Uh no in fact it’s absolutely not a fucking choice for most people.

I use sonicare too it’s great but you don’t really need the top end models, the tech inside is the same as the lower-mid end models it’s just some marketing bullshit.

Yeah tbh if you paid for the cat toy more than $5 you’ve almost certainly wasted money. Mine gets bored of most toys after a few days except for a few banger toys he still uses, but those also cost like $5.

Not sure if that’s true for table tennis. Like yeah if you’re just barely starting out sure get the $10 paddle but pretty soon (maybe even within a month or two) you’re gonna want a better paddle if you want to be at all serious about it.

Electric toothbrushes. Don’t get the cheapest one either, get a mid range one from a good brand but the top end models of the good brands are just scams, they just look a bit nicer and have some shitty “AI powered” app you’ll never use.

This kind of thinking feels like just cherry picking the good things to focus on, which sometimes isn’t the worst coping mechanism to have but in this context I think it just leads to complacency. The fact is the general trajectory of the world isn’t good even though some progressive ways of thinking have been normalized in some places, we could be doing much much better, we just choose not to.

Do these feelings of anger linger for long? Personally I’m like you in the sense that tiny inconveniences piss me off but I also drop those feelings pretty quickly and go on with my day, it’s like a very short spike of anger and then back to normal, I just kinda remind myself it’s not a huge deal and go on with my life. I think it’s healthy to feel the anger just don’t dwell on it for long.

Oh my god dude get over yourself, I feel sorry for the people around you if you’re this obnoxious IRL.

Oh my god dude you sound so pathetic right now. If you actually do hold radical left beliefs of any kind and it’s not just a cute online label for you (really doubt that but I’ll give you the benefit of a doubt) go outside, touch some fucking grass, and organize IRL, or at least talk to people IRL about it. We’ve all heard your bullshit “anti tankie” tirades from people like you a thousand times over, you’re not changing any minds and are not impressing anybody with your arguments, I can absolutely guarantee you that.

Also no higher-order functions like map, filter, reduce etc.

Really weird design decision for a brand new language.

Comptime is pretty dope tho, I wish Rust had that instead of relying on macros so much.

It’s not THAT complicated but I wouldn’t call it dead simple. When you understand how git works internally yeah it’s pretty simple but people usually start with the idea that it’s a tool to put your code on a server to synchronize with other people and only later learn that you have both a local and a remote (or multiple remote) tree and how the tree really works.

I think the problem is most git 101 tutorials teach it wrong, IMO the best git tutorial is this: https://wildlyinaccurate.com/a-hackers-guide-to-git/

Unfortunately it’s pretty dense so it’s gonna scare off a lot of newbies.

Eh, that’s unfortunate. Yeah the whole ecosystem is still a bit wonky, probably more wonky than most popular languages but tbh I rarely used a stack that just worked out of the box, it almost always took some dicking around, I’d rather do the dicking around with a language that doesn’t always seem to work against me.

because no compiler can check to see if you thought of everything.

We can try to get closer to that with better language design. You’ll never get there but I think there are obvious benefits as to why you’d want to do that.

I write way less bugs in Rust than I have in Java or C++, and that’s mostly thanks to the language design.

I’m just tired of people entirely dismissing languages like C because they don’t have these features. Especially when the operating systems their code runs on and their languages may even be implemented in C!

Because that code has been review and re-reviewed and patched by experts in the field for years. You’re not gonna write a backend for an app with short deadlines in C because that would be absolutely fucking insane.

How long ago was this? I think the ecosystem got waaay better in the last 1-2 years. 3-4 years ago it was rough but shit still worked with a bit of trouble.

You need pkill -9 vim to really make sure it’s dead.

Also the traveling part is generally tedious, uncomfortable and boring unless you have a super big luxury car. I’d much rather travel by high-speed rail.
