This is probably good advice, generally speaking. But I know there are exceptions to this. What I figured out very quickly is that most people end up needing to take this approach due to the problems you described. I've been programmin

There are people I know where I try to remember how we met, and it’d be because of some obscure corner of the gamefaqs forum.

Intellij IDEs for my day job are awesome. I do have a personal all-products license as well, but I hesitate to go “all in” and be dependent on them. But it is ok to just use a lot of editors for different things. VS Code is ‘good enough’ a

I have an idea. Let’s describe binaural recording, but then not mention it by name. Let’s also say that all of the specialists and engineers that designed atmos didn’t really create anything different and weren’t aware they could just make

I have not directly bought a computer in 13 years. I’ve been a programmer for 10. My daughter uses the one I was issued at coding bootcamp in 2013. My home recording studio uses a 2010 mac mini. My wife uses an out-of-warranty one from my w

Isolation is a big one. The classic study people bring up is the “cocaine rat”. The rat in isolation was drawn to the bottle with cocaine water. When the rat was in a cage with activites and other rats, lost the preference for the cocaine w

Yes. My “worst” code was when I was mid-level. Too clever, showing off what I learned. Music was my first career, and there was something that really stuck with me while studying music theory- learn as much as you can, and then don’t think

For me it was working in a company that had a process. My first job as a programmer I was tasked with building a replacement for an existing system. I worked by myself, and was just told to ask if I had any questions. I reported progress on

Sorry, can’t agree on that one. I like to play with elixir in my spare time, love the language. There is a ton of great tooling. But I use C# and Rider at work, and the IDE experience is light-years better.

I was having fun writing one liners with poly, leaving my file explorer open and dragging the output file straight into a Ableton channel with a drum rack set up. I also tried making a web UI with it via Yew. I got it all compiling and runn

I like to think of western music notation as not the most intuitive choice for a lot of popular styles of music. But it's kind of like when people talk about X programming language "making hard things possible". It's lik

Very excited to see this. It's very much a tool I would use, excited to give it a spin after work tonight. I also look forward to reading the code. Other cool music tools I've seen implemented in rust: * glicol - https:/&#x2

Fair- I shouldn’t have said that about google maps. I’m not a google maps user, so not as familiar with what features are available.

It’s hard. I’ve been on one of these kind of teams for a few years now. We have probably 50-70 teams and well over 2000 deployable products. There are good things, for sure. But of five teams, we’re the only one of them that is focused on t

The kind of places I like to vacation commonly have no cell service. The built in GPS works pretty good without cell service. Google/Apple maps fail in this scenario.

The only reason I wouldn’t drive around with that much cash is because I don’t want the police to rob me. Seriously.

This has been my experience. I’ve been using arch for ten years. The deepest I’ve had to go is search the forum if I couldn’t figure out something from the wiki. The wiki is so good that it’s common to come across it and find your answer fo

Wow, this is really great information. It makes a lot of sense. Masks make it more likely to breathe in aerosols and vaccines make it more likely to get infected. You should share these findings with the scientific community. We need more s

Not the same thing though. Windows Terminal is a terminal emulator. Rsh is a shell. Assuming rsh runs fine on windows, one could make another profile in Windows Terminal that starts in rsh.
