Kyrgizion , to aboringdystopia in 14 pages of dead babies

I hate this world and almost everyone on it. Myself most of all. 100% powerless to stop any of this. I want off this hellworld.

leftytighty ,

I hear you, it’s been a brutal millennium so far and things look like they’ll get worse before they get better.

We’re all powerless alone, and I don’t see us being able to stop the worst of what’s to come, but there’s pressure building against Israel, against capitalism, against conservatism, against the status quo.

It’s going to be a rough ride but we need to stubbornly exist and be present and visible so that the pressure keeps building.

Asafum ,

We’re all powerless alone

That’s the “funny” thing about it. ALONE we are powerless. The really really hard part is getting all of us together.

Media in the past that wasn’t purely propaganda for the sake of manipulating the population would have achieved this simply by the reporting done. Now all they do is give cover to the assholes committing the atrocities across the world and we have to fight with each other just to convince people what is actually happening and why it’s bad…

Divide and conquer works and it’s why we never seem to make progress. :(

Nah dawg, that’s like our one strength and even instinct. See Bregman’s Humankind, for example!

welcome to the real world. You should leave if you can’t handle it, this is never going to stop.

Kyrgizion ,

My father left this world at age 39. I’m 40 and I feel like I overstayed my welcome in this world by a decade at least.

Time to remedy that. Godspeed to the few who’ll understand. To everyone else: my father had the right idea and I don’t know why it took me this long to realize. We’ll meet again at some inky spot betweeb realms. In the meantime, good night to those who understand. See you on the flipside, maybe, one day…

skittle07crusher ,

Hey stop, I know what you’re saying bc I’ve been there myself. You haven’t any idea what the future holds is what I can tell you. There are so many good things in this world and believe it or not (I didn’t) they also come to you sometimes. Sending love your way.

Kramkar ,

Don’t do it. You should talk to someone.

skittle07crusher ,

Hey I mean it, the world NEEDS critical thinkers like you. I’m rereading your comments and please, don’t let those thoughts overcome your better judgement. I KNOW that’s not any ‘remedy’.

Nah, give me that Fisher Price Baby Screwdriver that’s easy to use and cannot build a space shuttle.

For all of those, Lisp is the more logical choice. Plus, whitespace as syntax is the worst possible design decision.

BombOmOm ,
@BombOmOm@lemmy.world avatar

Ok, but what if an entire programming language is made of whitespace?

en.wikipedia.org/…/Whitespace_(programming_langua…

tux0r ,
@tux0r@feddit.org avatar

Still easier to refactor than Python. ;-)

Scoopta ,
@Scoopta@programming.dev avatar

That syntax decision is single handedly why I avoid python if possible

MonkderVierte ,

For me it’s dependency hell. Almost as bad as npm.

Scoopta ,
@Scoopta@programming.dev avatar

…is it truly that bad? npm is the reason I don’t even install software based on node on my machines… python doesn’t seem nearly as bad by comparison? (I run it, just don’t like to write it) Maybe it’s worse than I realize

MajorHavoc , (edited )

Lisp is the more logical choice.

Relevant XKCD. Python has replaced Perl, but things have otherwise changed quite little.

tux0r ,
@tux0r@feddit.org avatar

I still write more Perl than Python these days.

MajorHavoc ,

I’m kinda jealous. I don’t miss maintaining production Perl code, but Perl was more fun to code in.

Perl is the only language that looks just as incomprehensible before and after a rot13 transformation.

Python on the other hand is the only language that will cause your application to stop working because you mixed up tabs and spaces, even though it looks perfectly fine on your scr.

And lisp is hard to say if you have one.

Edit: aa -> after a

MajorHavoc ,

Perl is the only language that looks just as incomprehensible before and aa rot13 transformation.

Lol. You’re not wrong.

Overspark ,

It is absolutely fine to mix tabs and spaces in Python, as long as you are consistent about it. It’s not recommended though, as it’s easy to mess up if you’re not paying attention. Most IDE’s will convert tabs to spaces anyway so it’s a bit of a non-issue.

Aatube ,

I mean, their goal was readability, and at least they're trying new things.

joyjoy , (edited )

You say that, then use a language that allows you to do this (it’s not lisp)


<span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">if </span><span style="color:#323232;">(foo);
</span><span style="color:#323232;">{
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  bar();
</span><span style="color:#323232;">}
</span>

@tux0r@feddit.org avatar

You can make embarrassing mistakes in virtually any programming language that’s not too esoteric.

When I still used Python for prototyping (today, I usually use Go for that), it happened much too often that I did this:


<span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">if </span><span style="color:#323232;">foo:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    bar()
</span><span style="color:#323232;">   foobar() </span><span style="font-style:italic;color:#969896;"># syntax error
</span>

In Lisp, however, both errors are much harder to make (not even considering GNU Emacs’s superb auto-indentation - which is what most Lispers use these days, as far as I know):


<span style="color:#323232;">(</span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">when</span><span style="color:#323232;"> foo)  </span><span style="font-style:italic;color:#969896;">;; <- obvious!
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    (bar)</span><span style="background-color:#f5f5f5;font-weight:bold;color:#b52a1d;">)</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span>


<span style="color:#323232;">(</span><span style="font-weight:bold;color:#a71d5d;">when</span><span style="color:#323232;"> foo
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    (bar)
</span><span style="color:#323232;">          (foobar)  </span><span style="font-style:italic;color:#969896;">;; <- still valid
</span><span style="color:#323232;">(quux))  </span><span style="font-style:italic;color:#969896;">;; <- also still valid
</span>

In terms of play time its probably Ridge racer type 4 for psx and the wipeout series followed by Mario kart.

ARNiM ,

Seconding R4, truly have high replayability value due to its unlock system & how every car handles differently. Not to mention the great soundtrack that I never get bored of.

That’s 710 babies under 1, it seems. The document wasn’t linked in many of the articles talking about this but one article did mention it was on Gaza’s MoH Telegram account, found it there. It’s a pretty damn long list

lime , to programmerhumor in Yup...i can confirm that

honestly i expected the fifth panel to be full of things like “GIL”, “2to3”, “virtualenv” “pip vs conda vs poetry vs…”, “mypy”, etc

dariusj18 ,

Yeah, it’s not about complexity things you can do with python, it’s the complexity of getting it to run. That continues to be the biggest pain point for me.

spacecadet , (edited )

This is why I refuse to work in production code bases in python, it’s a nightmare of build systems, linters, package managers (dear god help the poor soul who accidentally pip’d from pypi and not your companies artifactory instance), formatters, convoluted ci pipelines that always seem to fail, a series of “senior” devs that will make you redo everything because you wrote your own map (we don’t use functional programming here meme) instead of a for loop (can’t use list comprehension for “code readability issues”). Got to the point of just saying fuck it, I’ll write it in Scala or rust, SBT and Cargo god tier.

SpaceNoodle ,

You misspelled C++

xan1242 , (edited )

C++ is at least backwards compatible (for 99% of code anyway, yes I know about some features being removed, but that’s an exception and not the rule).

xmunk ,

Wait does python not have built in functional list comprehension? Even PHP has that built in at this point.

Phrodo_00 , (edited )

Python is probably the language that popularized them, if not invented them. They’re saying the team doesn’t like using them.

My take is that other than C++, where it’s reasonable, forbidden language features are a smell for the team not having a healthy understanding of the language

azimir ,

As per all too often, the functional programming world invented them. Haskell (and its ilk) usually has all the future cool stuff already. Then python picks it up, then it moves over to C#/Java, then C++ says “mee too”!

grue ,

Ha, you haven’t lived [in Hell] until you’ve tried to maintain a Jython build, with Python package dependencies (not just Java ones), in a production environment, in the 2020s.

henfredemars , (edited )

Surprised not to see meta-classes or package management in the meme.

EDIT: clarification

jacksilver ,

Am I an idiot or isn’t the “pip vs conda vs poetry” line talking about package management?

_stranger_ ,

It is, and it’s a valid complaint. Go and Rust have handled it differently than Python or JavaScript, and all of them have their faults and bonuses.

4oreman , to aboringdystopia in 14 pages of dead babies

I’d love to see this kind of concern for the civilians of other countries.

Talking about the civilians of one country is better than what you’re doing: talking about none.
