As a programmer, I consider The User to be the enemy. No matter how thoroughly I seemingly test my code, the second the user gets their hands on it, it breaks left and right from all the crazy shit they do.

Exactly. I cut and paste all the time but I make sure I know what the code is doing first before I actually add the code.
It also seems like she’s claiming Israel is part of the USA. I hadn’t realized we annexed them…
Although I haven’t used it since college, I actually liked C++ especially once I understood pointers.
Everyone saying to go to Lemmy after the Reddit thing. I always browsed Reddit through their webpage so the third party app thing didn’t really bother me but I thought the whole Fediverse concept sounded interesting and decided to see what it’s like.
Similar situation as me. I haven’t seen a manual transmission since my brother totaled his truck way back in the day.
Mine Bitcoin when it comes out because they actually will become valuable in the future.
There’s also a lot of “what idiot wrote this code” only to check git and find out it was you.
As a backend developer who occasionally has to work on the frontend, that top image is pretty accurate although it requires bootstrap smeared all over to pretty things up a bit. After that it will have the “Good Enough” seal of approval.
Florida really needs to stop tipping itself with how bad it can be. It seems like Florida is rapidly getting worse with each new headline I read
I have a kbin account which I switch to everytime lemmy.world goes down and the only real advantages I see are the better UI and the integrated microblog thing. It’s basically Lemmy and Mastodon wrapped up in a single piece of software.
The Bullet That Missed by Richard Osman
I regularly rewatch Star Trek, primarily TNG and Enterprise with the occasional DS9 or TOS episode.
It’s been too long so I don’t remember but there were several things I tried to install that required me to add a new repository, install from that, and then fiddle around with config files to get it to work.
Lots of people swear that Linux is easy but that’s never been my experience. It’s always command prompts and config files.
It’s been years since I last used Linux so maybe things have gotten better. I’ll likely be finding out eventually when Win 10 EOL comes because I don’t want Win 11.
I’ve used both regularly for years and went back to Windows when I switched to PC gaming and it’s just so much better. Everything just works on Windows.
Linux really needs to work on improving its user experience if it wants to be a true competitor to Mac and Windows. All these little config tweaks and command line prompts you have to do to get things working on Linux just isn’t going to win a bunch of people over who are used to things being a few clicks on a wizard to get working.
Edit: it’s been years since I last tried Linux so maybe things have changed.
I still use it. The HFY community is still on Reddit and I enjoy reading the stories.
The API changes haven’t really affected my experience since I always browsed Reddit on my desktop through the browser.
There’s going to be lots of those on Reddit with so many people deleting their past posts/comments.
If I was a corrupt Russian general, embezzling funds meant for nuclear deterrence upkeep would be a pretty safe bet since they are the weapons least likely to ever be used and thus least likely to be found out.
