Thank you for sharing your thoughts :)
Python will happily let you overwrite its own internals while running, for instance
Damn, that’s cool and I did not even know. Pretty sure I would not do this in production code, but very glad very this possibility exists
Take some place currently having UTC+12 time zone, say Marshall Islands. Midnight by UTC, the moment date changes, is exactly noon there. So how should people there talk about time? There is no “Tuesday the 15th of May” there, because every day is one part one date, other part another date
So yeah. For computers and programmers “whole planet lives in UTC” might look like a boon (for a time I myself wished for it), but only until they start facing other, more twisted problems
Any, all and each one of them. The moment you stop looking at how things are, you are finished and set right on the course of bringing unjustified pain and suffering
Yup. Which is why I also cheer up seeing “I use Arch btw” (me too use Arch). Can’t imagine myself giving educational speech on what open source software is and why it matters, but I surely can spam memes here and there
Lol. If I have to explain what “show me file system” and “save files where I want you to save them” mean, that one generation is millennials
Edit: oh, I get it. Sorry. Well, it does seem like that
Same here, save a car. I am also waiting for that magical moment when “you will understand when you grow up”. Welp, how much more growing do I have to do to reach that magical understanding that some grown-ups are toxic morons untold mysteries of the universe
Also: stop fucking redefining hotkeys, and place a toggler for pages where is makes sense (Figma etc., basically a whole complex programs in a webpage)
Someone should get their hands on someone like me and someone like you and study their brains. I spend most time with PHP and C++, and Python looks like an attempt to write code like prose literature. Very interesting how much of this is habbit, as it can’t be just that: reading prose and poetry in English/Russian/Japanese never produced this kind of resentment
Damn, I am not caring about my girl enough. Take my upvote! :)
As much as I am inclined to agree with this, still can’t
see: LISP
Also, see: Python with more than three lines of logic. I could suspect that’s just the me-versus-whitespaces thing, but no, YAML files do not get me dizzy in under thirty seconds of reading. Van Rossum made a huge miscalculation here
Readability? Me eyes bleed from a day of partially staring at python code, and there is a whole another week of that ahead. Tzinch (Edit: Tzeentch) help me
Point not made. First time around I read this as “elitist devs looking down on other devs thinking the latter can’t figure out a good UX”, which instantly gets countered with “it is a skill issue alright, but with all the people who design to UX to be exactly that (looking at you too, Android)”
Ok, so this is about devs making software on their own and producing bad UX? Wow, news flash: most devs, even good ones, are not good UI/UX designers, that’s a completely different skill
Appreciated too, just ping back that you are okay :)
I will look for you. I will find you ©
(joking, I am not that mad to get angry at strangers)
Wow. And here I thought MS all-screenshotting garbage was the peak of fucking over. Guess I need a bigger basket of popcorn

People are dumb. I don’t have ADHD and still can relate, because when a few things in a row don’t go as planned and require extra steps to get done, I get a desire to kill and smash
