I remember being upset about the exact same thing when 4G first launched.

Uh, I assumed that was a minimum viable product requirement.

Pretty much. How to guarantee I will never buy your brand ever again. Not that I would ever buy a Samsung anyway. Or anything preloaded with Facebook for that matter.

“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.

In the winter months, I live off of unsweetened herbal tea with no caffeine.

In my friend circles, the passenger was responsible for playing for the driver.

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.

I live in NA, and I have one. Most tea drinkers that I know have them, too. I don’t know how I could live without one.

But I guess tea isn’t as ubiquitous here. That’s probably why people don’t have kettles. They wouldn’t use them enough to be worth the counter space.

Not sure how exactly that would work. Do you have any ideas? Is there a free translation API that could be used?

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)?

Congrats! I had that happen a few years ago, and it is a great feeling. Cherish it! You have worked hard and earned this!

Ironically, I have had some really bad French toast in my day. Like, so bad I hated anything with cinnamon on it for years. For decades, the smell of French toast made me want to vomit. I couldn’t even go to breakfast joints that served it.

Yes, I intentionally didn’t want to provide too many details, as I thought it would just be confusing for someone who doesn’t already have a lot of background knowledge on the subject.

But specifically, I was talking about command line programs and ending them with Ctrl-C

I didn’t mean the programs were in danger. When this is done to some programs, it can cause bad things to happen to your computer.

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.

It can be really dangerous for some programs. I don’t know too much about Windows, but in Linux, if we try to close a program once, it sends SIGTERM (or SIGINT, I can’t remember right now), which basically asks your program to stop. You program can receive that signal and finish things up and exit cleanly. But if your program is deadlocked and can’t handle that right now, closing the program again sends it a SIGKILL, which is basically the OS saying, “Get fucked. You’re done whether you like it or not.”

Thank you! I’ll give this another try this weekend!
