C at least has a preprocessor. C# has almost nothing except generators, which are a huge pain in the ass. Java seems to be similar.

Lisp is the greatest. Everything else is in between.

We should have tools and libraries that help us avoid boilerplate, not ones that help us write more of it.

Sounds more like Canada to me. None of those things are covered publicly here, although we were making some slow progress on drug and dental coverage when we had a mildly progressive party sharing power.

Doesn’t fdroid build everything from source (in the main repo)? There’s no way Google would allow them to do that with their own developer keys.

I’ve almost given up on just searching the whole internet for something. I either filter by eye for sites I trust in the results, or add a filter to the query. There are usually a handful of sites I trust on a given topic.

In interactive add mode you can use s to split a hunk, and e to edit it. That’s usually enough for me to split things up.

It’s crazy how poorly photos convey the experience.

It sounds basic, but I just keep an eye on new album reviews and give things a quick listen (on Spotify usually) if they have some good reviews.

For things I like I try to buy it on bandcamp so I can put it on my jellyfin server. If it’s hard to find DRM free I 🏴‍☠️.

Downside is I miss out on non-album releases.

I’m sure there’s cheap land for sale, but that one is just a typo in the listing I’m pretty sure.

Situated on a large 82X145 fully fenced lot, giving you ample room and tons of outdoor space for your family.

It’s a regular town lot surrounded by others.

Now I kind of want to have a daily Lemmy thread where we read and discuss a random Wikipedia article as a community.

This was on my mind, but then I just watched it yesterday.

There’s a film that covers how they named Gleemonex:

It’s well worth reading the entire paper. It’s one of the funniest things I’ve ever read.

I still regularly think about Enema Bag Jones.

The first decision has to be vim/emacs.

There’s a death star on the other side of the fence.

Or to copy something and modify it 30 times.

This seems like a very bad idea. I think we just need more lisp and less AI.

That’s crazy.

Since GPUs got into the TFLOP range I often think of this old magazine cover:

Zero chance this company replaced him with an AI that actually does anything useful.

I was a pretty experienced programmer when I first read SICP, but I still found it incredibly valuable. I’d recommend it to anyone.
