People throwing thrash on the way usually is a sign of not enough trash cans in an area.

No. I regularly see trash on the ground with sometimes as much as 5 trash cans in sight that are less than 20m away.

If you cut yourself with a knife, it might be your fault. And it might be that the knife is sharp on both sides and has no handle.

It feels like I’m thirty years too young to get these jokes.

20 seconds, Germany. Waiting while they checked if my name was on the list.

To DRY or not to DRY in c/[email protected]

Completely depends on how often you need to write boilerplate code, and how error-prone it is.

After writing hundreds of instances of ‘fetch this from the server and show an error if it doesn’t work’, I finally wrote a helper for that. It took 2 hours, shouts at me if I use it wrong, and instantly makes my classes easier to read because all the boilerplate is gone. As an added bonus, the invocation is so small that Copilot can write it error-free, which it couldn’t before.

So fetching things is now a thing of a few seconds instead of one minute with a chance of making a mistake. I say it’s worth it.

C) Write a highly specific, custom-tailored boilerplate generator that does 80% of the work and needs only a day or two to implement.

Coding must be a nightmare if you’re choosing programming languages at random 😱

But you must also be learning quite a lot.

Programs aren’t written by a single team of developers that speak the same language. You’d be calling a library by a Hungarian with additions from an Indian in a framework developed by Germans based on original work by Mexicans.

If no-one were forcing all of them to use English by only allowing English keywords, they’d name their variables and functions in their local language and cause mayhem to readability.

[Edit:] Even with all keywords being forced to English, there’s often half-localized code.

I can’t find the source right now, but I strongly believe that Steve McConnell has a section in one of his books where he quotes a function commented in French and asks, “Can you tell the pitfall the author is warning you about? It’s something about a NullPointerException”. McConnell then advises against local languages even in comments

I had to read the second post twice to understand what it’s saying due to the non-standard grammar. But I’m a foreign speaker.

I’m asking an honest question out of curiosity: Was this easily legible to you?

LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP $300

I’m inclined to buy that just because it exists. I hate subscription services so, so much!

This is the best option if you think you’ll use Nebula for more than 5 years.

When the problem was bigger than you anticipated and you’re a not-so-good developer (sopuli.xyz)
 

Meme transcription:

Bro, just one more bug fix, I swear. The base design is good, promise. This is just a simple bug that I need to fix. It doesn’t require redesigning my approach. I know I’m calling the same function 8 times to get the same data each time, but that’s just this one time, bro. I know they’re asynchronous functions and loading now takes 300ms, but this is just during development, bro. I know I’ve inlined about 7 different things that should be seprate, but that was necessary to fix the previous last bug. I swear, I’m almost done. This is the last bug to fix, bro.
