Recently accidentally changed my wallpaper and been too lazy to find a new one.

As much as I dislike doing user support myself, it's always really really great when positive user feedback reaches us.

Luckily I don't have to do a lot of user support now.

😱

Cute.

There's a saying in German: „Wenn der Bauer nicht schwimmen kann, liegt's an der Badehose“. Roughly translated, if the farmer can't swim, he blames his bathing suit.

@rc5-asdf no, but I've been wondering the same! Not enough to actually go find out though.

@Mayhem93 got morons everywhere though

Deducking

Alright I won't defend Wordpress (because why would ya), but pineapple on pizza is the shit!

What helped me a lot in getting more comfortable with regexes are sites like regexr and regex101. They got a huge text box where you can throw all kinds of strings into to test against, and a field to enter your regex, with helpful highlighting, syntax check, explanations, and inline help.

You can just fiddle until your regex does what you want and then get an explanation of what exactly happens.

Ridiculously helpful.

Doesn't ENU == English (US)?

(just a quick fyi) Praktikant would be intern, while trainee would be Azubi

Well tbh the last part goes both ways... if I buy a car I expect it to not produce big black clouds without me having to specify that

Oh wow, only took two hours to set up the dev env for this one! So assuming I'll have it fixed and ready for testing in 2 hours, it'll only have wasted half a day!

If you want a really comfortable shell with some neat features like history-filtering and nicer autocompletion, with little to no effort needed to get it working, try zsh with oh-my-zsh (basically a collection of presets and plugins)

@theuser it does... there's at least 4 ways to write the same thing as i posted originally shorter in php

Yea, the Banana has Gbit Ethernet though, and SATA...

@TerriToniAX yeah I've done pretty much all of what I said myself as well, that is until the last massively failed accessibility audit on a project that had passing that audit as a requirement. Forced me to start watching out for that stuff

@TerriToniAX oh yeah, unsolicited popups/modals that interrupt navigation on the current page are an even bigger plague than this horrible trend of hiding content interval-wise (carousels... I dislike them a lot)

Pretty much any time I need to make a quick edit or a couple search & replace operations on a file that's not part of my open IDE workspace

@ctwx like I said, I'm mostly against it cause proper accessibility in a JS application with dynamically updating parts of the page requires a bit more work and effort, and I'd take a properly accessible site over a fancy async dynamic whooshy one any day. And well, most "fancy" projects I've seen so far have had horrible accessibility because there just wasn't time for it, even though the devs on it would've made a pure HTML version properly accessible just through routine and standards alone.

My opinion if it isn't a personal project there should always be a proper HTML fallback. If there isn't enough time for one then I think priorities should be reevaluated or the JS frontend version be put on hold. At least the core features and stuff like signing in, signing out, and deleting one's account should be accessible without.

But then again I'm highly biased because most JS frontends I've seen that have no HTML fallback also took a huge dump on accessibility, applying the same argument (and I don't think there is any excuse for not considering accessibility)

@CrankyOldDev you're not wrong. If the communicating code is secure then SOAP is secure. If it ain't then, well, it ain't. But ya got the same issues as with any endpoint of anything. Maaaaaaaybe an argument could be made cause for SOAP there's usually a bazillion libraries involved but even then, not the protocols fault.

Testing is for scrubs, we are doing agile rapid continuous deployment buzzword cloud buzzword scaling buzzbuzz. We do testing the proper way: by delivering the new version to 10 randomly selected percent of our user base and see if they scream in agony or not.

Just like the big guys (thanks, Twitter)

There's no proper argument to be made for NOT making a form (or website in general for that matter) accessible unless you know every single person who is ever going to use it. And even then, might as well.

I miss the old blobs. Much easier to recognize due to the varying shapes and also, they were cute. Not this hot ICQ garbage we have now.
