Someone should get their hands on someone like me and someone like you and study their brains. I spend most time with PHP and C++, and Python looks like an attempt to write code like prose literature. Very interesting how much of this is habbit, as it can’t be just that: reading prose and poetry in English/Russian/Japanese never produced this kind of resentment
As much as I am inclined to agree with this, still can’t
see: LISP
Also, see: Python with more than three lines of logic. I could suspect that’s just the me-versus-whitespaces thing, but no, YAML files do not get me dizzy in under thirty seconds of reading. Van Rossum made a huge miscalculation here
Readability? Me eyes bleed from a day of partially staring at python code, and there is a whole another week of that ahead. Tzinch (Edit: Tzeentch) help me
Point not made. First time around I read this as “elitist devs looking down on other devs thinking the latter can’t figure out a good UX”, which instantly gets countered with “it is a skill issue alright, but with all the people who design to UX to be exactly that (looking at you too, Android)”
Ok, so this is about devs making software on their own and producing bad UX? Wow, news flash: most devs, even good ones, are not good UI/UX designers, that’s a completely different skill
Wow. And here I thought MS all-screenshotting garbage was the peak of fucking over. Guess I need a bigger basket of popcorn
Very welcome you are, my friend. My gratitude please take
Yeah. JS is okay with lots of funny (and not fun) type coercions (toString on everything? really?), has no notion of reference as data type, but somehow automatic iteration on array by “==” operator is too much
You are right, that’s not want I would want from it, it is bad, I will never like that. And you are also right there are things even worse than this, no question there
Edit:
“implementing iteration on == would have been too much” is an invalid argument, if anyone had doubts
And I can’t take this one. I did not ask if an object referenced by a is the same object referenced by b, I asked if two empty collections of values are equal. And an empty bag can easily be substituted by another empty bag, there is no class/instance tricky business here. And the fact that in JS arrays are objects is again JS-specific insanity. Still I thank you for sharing your thoughts
NeoVim. Once I looked at vim as an IDE, I won’t look back
Because when someone is alone, they might start thinking for themselves. Dangerous shit right there for those lacking the honesty to make actually win-win kind of deals
Like I didn’t know 😂
What, line suddenly stopped going up?
console.log([] == [])
No, it’s recognising that terminal has its own rules and the learned Ctrl+C for copy has no sense… Okay, C-Copy. Some sense. Now, Ctrl+V for… vaste? :)
All while having an Insert fucking button.
In the end, me personally does not care as long as Ctrl+C continues to be the process-killer
Lol. Good luck, mister exponential science
No, since the dataset is bound to give nonsensical results, we search for sources that are more precise. Hint: “Andrea” already mentioned and Japanese names
Oh yes it should. We have spent thousands of years looking at these things, and look where we are
This is really one of the best advice about communication ever.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts :)
Damn, that’s cool and I did not even know. Pretty sure I would not do this in production code, but very glad very this possibility exists
