For a few files, sure. Idk how I’d use that on the large corporate Java codebase that I usually work with though. Despite all its memory hogging and unnecessary features, IntelliJ also proves remarkably useful when trying to find anything in these mega projects. Features like ctrl + clicking on a method call to get to its definition (even when it is in a different project that I don’t have checked out), the refactoring tools, the debugger, etc are absolutely necessary to get anything done.

Awesome!

No Haskell so I’m not a nerd 😎. Though from the languages I use the most (Java & Python) and other languages I enjoy (Rust, Julia) I can infer that I’m probably a bit of a nerd.

I’m Dutch and I have yet to see gender neutral pronouns etc that really work well. Unless you want to be called an “it”, but I’ve only heard people use that to mock people. They/them works quite well, but we don’t really have that afaik

Personally I like the @ way more. You even read it as “at”, which makes sense in this context. “Gerryflap at feddit.nl” instantly makes sense. It aligns with email, so it also makes it easier for newcomers.

Not sure what the issue with zip files is? They’re supported on basically every device and afaik are not a proprietary format or anything. Seems better to me than rar or 7z. Tar.gz is also fine, but * don’t really see why one would care

Programming socks provide a +2 programming skill buff. Their tight fit around the legs provides better blood flow through the legs which also means a better blood flow through the brain.

They also make you more cute :3

Nothing too weird. Multiple manuals of objects that I own, probably the weirdest of which is a German manual for my Canon EOS 300 (I’m not German). And some machine learning papers, among which a paper from 1987, by Quinlan & Rivest, about decision trees (which is older than I am).

EDIT: Oh and another document older than me, a manual for the Minolta XG-9 that I’m lending from my dad.

Are people really this dramatic? There are plenty of conventions at work that we don’t like but just accept. We’ll moan about it every now and then (looking at you “only one return statement per method”), but in the end we’ll just accept that any standard is better than total mayhem and anarchy. Usually I write the code in a way that makes sense to me and then just tidy it up to satisfy the angry rule machine. Having moet of the code in the same format makes it easier to follow, and the code that was written before these rules has me convinced that this whole thing is am improvement.

Uhh am I misinterpreting what “a day off” means? If I take a day off the I so whatever I please. Why would my employer care? When I worked at the store I’d still visit the store on my off days. And at my current work I’d absolutely share it whenever I did something nice on my day off. Or do you mean sick leave or something?

Yeah you’re running by default but it can easily take an in-game hour to get anywhere. When you’re done with the plants or animals you have to race to get to the shops in order to be there before closing. Especially the blacksmith

Maybe I’m doing something wrong but Stardew Valley stresses me out way more than many other games. There’s so little time

It’s usually off unless I expect to be back relatively soon. Startup times aren’t an issue nowadays

The frog is being used by a lot of people tho. I have many friends and colleagues who use it for whatever and they’re definitely not Nazi’s. Not everything being used by idiots needs to be instantly banned, they don’t deserve that power

Wait overmorrow is correct English? We have “morgen” and “overmorgen” in Dutch which is tomorrow and overmorrow respectively, so I always missed an overmorrow in English. Is it actually commonly understood or will people look at me like I’m a weird foreigner when I use it?

Oh this is useful information, thanks!

Forgot the number, but one of the most common Logitech ones. Right now I’m not even getting past the first hurdle though, which is getting Assetto Corsa with Content Manager and mods to start. I spent a few hours on it and then decided that I had better things to do with my time

Both. I’d prefer Linux because it respects me as a user, but unfortunately too much stuff constantly breaks to fully convert. The moment I can play Assetto Corsa with all my mods using my wheel in VR I’ll consider fully switching. Many other games already work though, so I’m slowly converting to using Linux as my default and Windows as the exception instead of the other way around.

(I use Arch btw)

And Julia!

Lemmy generally attracts the same kind of person that would also use Linux. Both of them are open source and community driven alternatives to software otherwise provided by large corporations and milked for every last cent. Both of them require just a bit more knowledge in order to comfortably use them. Linux with all the distro’s and desktop environments, Lemmy with all the instances and apps/front-ends. We’re very much a bubble here.
