It was my first time using a Linux GUI. I was comfortable with CLI, but it was my first time having it installed on a laptop instead of just sshing into a server somewhere.
So naturally, instead of learning how the GUI worked, I tried changing it to be exactly like Windows. I was doing things like making it so I could double click shell scripts and other code files and they would run instead of opening them up in an editor. I think you see where this is going, but I sure as hell didn’t.
Well, one of my coworkers comes over and asks me to run this code on this device we were developing. We were still in the very early stages of development, we didn’t even have git set up, so he brought the code over on a USB stick. I pop it into my laptop. I went to check it once by opening it in an editor by double clicking on it… Only it ran the code that was written for our device on my laptop instead of opening in an editor.
To this day, I have no idea what it did to fuck my laptop so bad. I spent maybe an hour trying to figure out what was wrong, but I was so inexperienced with Linux, that I decided to just reinstall the OS. I had only installed it the day before anyway, so I wasn’t losing much.
“I’m right, and if anyone disagrees, it’s because they’re brainwashed”
There’s literally no possible way to argue against this type of logic.
I’m a long time Java developer who was recently moved to a project written in Go. All I can say is: What. The. Fuck. I swear, the people who designed the syntax must have been trying to make every wrong decision possible on purpose as a joke. The only think I can think of is that they only made design decisions on the syntax while high on shrooms or something.
Like, why in the actual fuck does the capitalization of a function change the scope??? Who thought that was a good idea? It’s not intuitive AT ALL. Just have a public/private keyword.
I personally think we should hold off on the speculation. We have seen recently with the Perry/Bedard situation how speculation, even when lighthearted here on the internet, can be extremely hurtful to the people involved. Imagine Carter Hart is ill or going through the loss of a family member, and now the internet is accusing him of sexual assault.
I personally say we wait for more information before we start speculating wildly. Let’s be better than Reddit here.
Edit: well, it’s official now. Hart’s lawyers confirmed he has been accused of sexual assault.
It happens! I moderate !hockey@lemmy.ca, and recently !hockey@lemmy.world merged with us naturally.
That feeling when you’re not a recent CS grad anymore 😭
I never even heard of rust when I graduated in 2016.
If you have a good IDE, and Java has the best IDEs of any language I have used, then auto complete will take care of most of that for you.
So if I’m understanding correctly, if I created a Sublinks account, theoretically I would see all the same content, and I could use the same app, but it would be more optimized and have some additional features (on the web UI or if the app implemented those features)?
Gen Xers: am I a joke to you?
Logan Couture is finally making his season debut!
I know exactly how you feel. My team’s games usually don’t even start until 9 or 9:30 in my time zone, which means I’m up until almost 1 AM. And then I have to work early the next day. It’s brutal.
Stupid time zones.
I have solar panels and a backup battery. I was actually disappointed when the power didn’t go out when it got cold here in Texas last week.
I feel like a very high percentage of posts and comments here are just “Americans bad.” And as an American, even though the things they are complaining about don’t apply to me specifically, it makes me feel very unwelcome.
I’m sorry, I must have responded to the wrong comment. That comment was supposed to be in an entirely different conversation.
Edit: Oh, I just reviewed my inbox. I thought you replied to a different comment of mine. I’m so dumb. Carry on.
I have a lock that I can check the status of on my phone, and even lock it from my phone if I forgot. It’s really good for my peace of mind. No more getting up in the middle of the night to check the lock.
How are you closing the program? I don’t mean with the X button on the desktop environment. I mean command line programs.
I was a kid when the prequels came out. I remember the hate for them, but most of my friends that were my age all loved them, as did I.
I think people tend to like what they grew up with and dislike what comes out when they are older.
You can see this pattern in Pokemon games as well. I grew up with gen 2 and gen 3. When gen 4 came out, it seemed like everyone hated it. Same with gen 5. But now most people act like gen 5 was the last good one.
If no one else has this issue, it could very well be something unique to my internet connection!
Oh, that might be better. I moved out while Bart didn’t come down that far south, or maybe it just opened up, but I always forget about it because I never used it before moving out of the area.
I distinctly remember Nathan MacKinnon doing it recently. Maybe last year or the year before. It could have been in the postseason.
