Spooky

xusontha OP ,

More like terrifying

newIdentity ,

True

I have to program in Java at my work and I absolutely hate it

@kogasa@programming.dev avatar

What version of Java? 11 up is tolerable, modern Java is nice. Still see 8 in the wild though.

newIdentity ,

Java 20 mostly

@kogasa@programming.dev avatar

I’m surprised, I would love to work in Java 20. Do you have any particular pain points with it? Or is it just that you’d rather be using something else?

newIdentity , (edited )

Yeah. I just don’t like Java

C# is better

nogrub ,

we programm sort algorithms in java right now and i can’t really complain but i’m just a newbie

Write once, run anywhere away.

ChillCapybara , in Harder Drive: Hard drives we didn't want or need

Not since the video about aluminum can manufacturing have I sat inexplicably spellbound for the entire thing.

JackbyDev OP ,

Idk if I saw the same one but yeah I really appreciate all the workings of the “k’chhk” now. It’s so fascinating!

Did you see the one about Hawaii having different cans? youtu.be/7Qi6oIOHbDg

JavaScript: i know it was easy to write it like this but you should index your citations next time

Typescript: I meant properly, not on your scratch sheet

This may be one of the nerdiest fucking things I have ever watched.

Holy dicking fuck. This is amazing.

Is there an ÜBERULTRABEGINNER explanation for what these languages even do? It’s just alien glyphs.

AFaithfulNihilist ,
@AFaithfulNihilist@lemmy.world avatar

A lot of them are shorthand for phrases that exist in other programming languages. If you watch the whole video you can see him type things like match to get the ≅ or something like that I don’t know I didn’t follow at all It’s pretty heady shit.

Adalast ,

Yeah, just watching and learning about their existence now, but it definitely looks like people took the full ASCII library and decided to use it for all common operators and operations in the language. Really cool, but yeah, kinda arcane until you learn the characters.

AmbleHamble ,

This is so far beyong my understanding, he could be trolling and I’d nod along and still feel like a dumbass

Hallainzil , in Harder Drive: Hard drives we didn't want or need

I love this video. The escalating insanity is wonderful. I once got the Harder Drives music stuck in my head for about 2 days straight.

WhiteHotaru , in Harder Drive: Hard drives we didn't want or need

I maybe did not understand 95% of this, but it is cool to see people understanding the math behind computing.

bucho , in Harder Drive: Hard drives we didn't want or need

I love this guy’s channel. Two of my other favorite things he’s done are: Uppest Case / Lowest Case, and that time he Reverse Emulated a NES.

It's so rare that we get a new video, but it's always a special day when it happens.

kSPvhmTOlwvMd7Y7E , in A fun simple game

So they posted that screenshot before even trying to run it on some useless file to see it works… Internet points are surely a drug

words_number , in Microsoft Edge could use a win

Edge is pretty good…

…for downloading Firefox.

I wouldn’t even use a proprietary browser if they’d pay me for it. Let alone a chromium based one.

mp3 ,
@mp3@lemmy.ca avatar

You don’t even need a browser

winget install Mozilla.Firefox

CeeBee ,

That’s a weird way to write apt install firefox

provisional ,

Who needs to sudo apt install firefox when it already comes preinstalled on most distros?

Gingernate ,

where my zypper fam at?

Barbarian ,
@Barbarian@sh.itjust.works avatar

That’s an usual way to write snap install firefox

words_number ,

No!

apt: ok

pacman: ok

flatpak: ok

appimage: ok

built stuff from source: ok

snap: over my dead body

True, I missed that winget is now preinstalled with newer windows versions. I don’t use windows a lot though, especially not for browsing the web.

SnowdenHeroOfOurTime , in Microsoft Edge could use a win

I really liked Edge like a year or two ago. It seems they are trying to destroy it as fast as possible.

MJBrune ,

What did they do that you didn’t like?

hglman ,

The right click menu has an entry to search what is highlighted with the default search engine next to an entry to search with bing.

SnowdenHeroOfOurTime ,

Have you used it recently? They’ve gone crazy with shitty toolbars, especially on windows

Sasori323 , in Microsoft Edge could use a win

Idk, I really like Edge. It just has bad reputation due to Internet Explorer… It is actually very good imo.

MiddledAgedGuy ,

It depends on what circles you’re in I suppose. But I suspect you’re right for most people that dislike it. For some of us it’s the Chromium engine it runs on, and/or the company it comes from.

Edit: So more ideological reasons. I imagine the browser itself works fine.

Sasori323 ,

Yeah you’re right. I can see and I respect people’s reasons for not wanting to use windows / Microsoft products.

I just wanted to point out this as I think many people still consider edge as a bad browser. At least in my experience it works really well and I personally like the style it has and overall the “windows 11 aesthetic” Microsoft is choosing for their products.

busydoinnothin , in A fun simple game

I have laughed at this for too long. Good way to start the morning.

chahk , in A fun simple game

Still a better chance of success than an in-place upgrade of Win 10 to Win 11.

elint ,

Have you actually tried that? It just works. Win11 isnt much more than a big Win10 feature update. We’ve updated a few hundred machines across several customers and they rarely required manual intervention.
