My IT teacher in high school. Got me into programming, helped me take programming from a hobby to a career and is still helping me today. Honestly one of the coolest people I know.1

vscode for now. I swap editors when I get bored of one. All editors have something cool to them. Except Vim. Screw Vim.1
-
I started using vim today
Not sure if I'm gonna ditch GUI IDEs and editors completely, but I think I'll try using only vim for a day or two, see how it goes8 -
Nothing give more pleasure than find out the cli tool you need is already installed in your distro5

Anyone know of OSSU? It seems cool, but I don't know anyone that has any experience with it. Would be doing it part time to fill all the gaps of my self learning journey5

Public transport is slowly getting quieter and quieter. One side of my enjoys the silence and space, but the other side wishes I had the option to not take it either.
Everyone WFH, I envy you...2 -
I see people ++ my post.
I myself cannot even find the ++ button.
I'm blind as a bat and I write CSS for a living.
I just realized my senses must have adapted and I can probably hear stylesheets cascade.10 -
Idea: So as curvew will be imposed around the world. Would it be a good idea to develop an app that would based on location assign a slot for people to leave the house for an hour a day?7

For me, it was when I discovered how dynamic linking (.dll, .so) works, and why a linker is needed to run even a simple "Hello world!".5

If you ever have to defragment a hard drive with an ext4 filesystem: Good luck, it's going to take a while7

Since the end of my extended internship is slowly coming forth, I thought I'd (happily) ramble in the Random section for a bit:
*TL,DR: Internship went well, I learnt a lot*
The company I worked at made my experience with Frontend make huge leaps. I used both Vue and React, neither of which I had used before. I also learnt that you could mock things in unit tests instead of simulating full use. Finally, I also improved my experience with Kotlin again.
Both teams I have been in (since there was a switch due to a lot of people taking off days for holidays) told me that I am quite fast at grasping concepts I hadn't even heard of before, which is quite nice :)
Anyway, I wonder what the transition to school is going to be like.3 -
I write code and deal with clients reporting bugs that are actually just misconfiguration or that are fixed in the latest release version, but they managed to forget deploying it for one particular separate service.
-
I am writing much less code for certain things in C++ than I would in Go...
I guess that sticking to traditional languages has its advantages. ;)9 -
As I've mentioned in a company-held course about this topic: Construction work noises.
I quote:
"Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.
Drrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr."
At least there's earphones that help prevent this from ever reaching my ears. -
So apparently, png++ is a shitty library that doesn't flush its output streams so I had to use libgd in C++ instead
oh well5 -
Two of them, both are not very extrem.
Positive one first:
Meetings were usually not dead serious (unless there was a problem), everyone just joked around a little, made their actual points and got back to work.
Now the other one:
A client's QA staff commented "this bug is still occuring" on 5 tickets, without checking if they ever deployed the new release candidate.
They didn't deploy the new RC, so of course, the bugs couldn't have been fixed on their side.2
