Depends on the programming language

POV: Auto correct turned itself off

That’s insanely dumb

I love how well the PolyMC -> PrismLauncher transition went. It’s great that the asshole owning it didn’t just spew transphobic hate, but also removed the contribution rights to all other people, leading them to immediately flock to an alternative.

(Failed attempts of recovery are not listed)

Would be interesting though

Yes, but not for indentation (which is obviously what I meant)

It isn’t, there are curly braces. It’s TypeScript.

This is awesome. But one question as I’m not so familiar with emacs: Why do they punish someone when trying to use emacs but not vi? Why do you see emacs as something works?

In my experience, you can’t expect it to deliver great working code, but it can always point you in the right direction.
There were some situations in which I just had no idea on how to do something, and it pointed me to the right library. The code itself was flawed, but with this information, I could use the library documentation and get it to work.

As a Rustacean, I’d rather use C than C++ for a small project.

Hey, sorry for the late answer, but I think you might be interested in this:
First of all, as a disclaimer: I’m not a professional front-end developer. I’m usually doing backend stuff and this is the first time I wanted to program a cross-platform desktop app. I spent a lot of time researching and settled on GTK / Libadwaita.
And I actually spent the last months building and packaging the project for every platform. With every platform I mean macOS, Linux and Windows. I strongly recommend doing this with a CI pipeline as there are many specific steps you need to follow.
I will provide a template on Github when I’m finished as well as a more in-depth blog post about all the steps and explanations. The main problem is that most is not documented at all and what’s documented is super outdated. So I had to figure out many things by myself. But the actual process, when you know how to do it, isn’t even really hard. I’ll post the links to the template here when I finished it all but it might still take some months as I currently also have other stuff to do.

Wait, Facebook did the same nonsense as well?

Not really, besides ml who are usually tankies (ml stands for Marxist Leninist and the mods delete anything against China, etc.)

No, if clauses are just with present or past tense or something like could, but you shouldn’t use would, only in the first part.

Yeah, but that comment was about the pair programming tile and not about the bottom of the image

Yes. It may be a bit silly but I’m pretty happy / proud that I’ve had some contact with him while working on it :D

Ruffle: You may not know it but most old Flash games (and basically every anmiation) can be played again with this, modern and in a Browser sandbox. Website owners can include it in the backend with a few lines of code and all flash games work again automatically, and it’s also available as desktop app :D

There was no source in the pair programming tile. They literally put white where already white was.

A good Dev in the situation you mention will design the solution needed now not the one you hope for later.

Maintainability is one of the most important if not the most important goal when programming. If a dev only designs a solution that fits for exactly the current situation but doesn’t allow any changes, it’s not a good dev.
But yeah, if you start small, a solution that’s made for that is preferable. You can still refactor things when you get magnitudes larger and have the budget.

IntelliJ at least has a good open source version and it’s free for students
