It's often a bit of a choice, though. You definitely can minmax Civilization, Minecraft, or Crusader Kings III. But then you lose out on the creativity and/or role-playing aspect. In Minecraft, I personally want to progress in a &

Maybe that's why I like Into The Breach so much, and keep coming back to it. It's a turn based strategy game, but one with exceptionally high information, compared to pretty much all the rest. You even fully know your opponent&#x2

And not just for audio. In fact, I don't care about audio that much, and they're still some of my most treasured technical books (I have them in print form, and still reference them online pretty regularly). Those changed my life,

Yeah, but in practice you only get that in a perfect vacuum.

Both rust and C are also much, much less error-prone than assembly. It is so, so easy to get things wrong in assembly in very subtle ways. That’s one of the main drivers while people are only writing assembly today when they absolutely have

Sure, but “JavaScript [is] utterly broken, incapable of executing the simplest programs without errors” is a bit much. I find it hard to believe that even when I’m completely out of touch, I’d say that about a language that people are obvio

I’m well aware of all of those things (I program modern assembly for a living, and witnessed the evolution of JS), but the quote was “JavaScript [is] utterly broken, incapable of executing the simplest programs without errors”, which is a b

Ah, okay. Maybe it’s more obvious in context, or maybe my hyperbole detector is broken.

That quote about JavaScript is... huh. I do not understand how you can even begin coming to the conclusion of "JavaScript [is] utterly broken, incapable of executing the simplest programs without errors" when obviously, JavaScript

I do agree with your point about society. The reason we waited are way beyond monetary issues, and we would have waited regardless, but people should be able to support a family without an “advanced” career if they choose so.

Nobody said you should wait that long. As for your anecdote, what’s wrong with figuring out early during dating whether you plan on having children or not? People should talk about those things early, since there is hardly anything that m

According to that page, the whole issue seems to be very nuanced. It also contains the quotes I attached below. Be it as it may, I conclude that there is an elevated risk for problems the older you get (although for some issues, cause and e

That’s interesting. Because I genuinely feel I’m much better cut out to be a parent now. Is it different for you? I have so much patience and understanding, and I see that lacking in many of the younger parents around me. I see them and I r

I did not have more time in my 20s. In my 20s and early 30s, I was busy “getting out there”. Building my life, my interests, my foundation (not just my career). Now I have a happy life to stand on, and can devote more time, attention, and e

I didn’t say get pregnant at 50. I said I became a parent at almost 40, my wife is a couple of years younger. No problems whatsoever, and I seem to have more energy for parenting (and especially patience) than the parents in their 20s who h

We did wait for the “perfect” time, and are very happy we did. I got my son at almost 40, and I’m positive I’m a much better parent because of that. Sure, kids cost energy, but at 40 and 50 you’re not geriatric. I often get the opportunit

To turn this around, you can have fun and ask if something is meaningful or not outside the fun at the same time. If it is, great. If it's not, no harm.

Not on the regular, but there are definitely times I load positively gigantic files in emacs for various reasons. In those times, emacs asks me if I want to enable "literal" mode. Don't think I'd do it in EDIT, though.

Fun. I must admit I don't really know who this is for , but it seems fun.

What do you mean, you don't want "software"? Where do you draw the line? A basic digital wristwatch has "software". You're going to have software for a modern, efficient car, whether you like it or not. For the

TRAMPs goal is to be able to use ssh, scp, sftp, rsync etc., without any special TRAMP support on the remote side.

by anyfoo 1y ago
LSPs should work fine with TRAMP. In practice I have a problem with it, since there is some bad interaction between eglot, TRAMP, and clangd in certain cases, but that is a specific situation and a bug.

If you’re a web developer, sure.

by anyfoo 1y ago
But I cannot use the remote clangd for LSP, for example.
240.
by anyfoo 1y ago
Which means you can’t remote LSP, gdb, etc. In other words, it only works if your local platform is the same (or compatible) with the remote platform, or (in a limited capacity) if you have a viable cross compiling environment.
