Imagine the regex needed to highlight code with that extra single quote.

Use datatypes

HeckGazer , in Multifactor auth done right

Wow would you look at that, still none of them cover what SMS is >:( Almost like it’s not a second factor, and fuck every corporation that tries to claim that it is

JPAKx4 ,

SMS is something you have, IE access to your phone. Doesn’t mean it’s the best option, SMS is notorious for being insecure

HeckGazer ,

The 10,000 support staff with dubious social engineering training at your service provider are not “something you have”. Case in point literally a few weeks ago arstechnica.com/…/verizon-fell-for-fake-search-wa…

Kethal ,

This is an article describing someone impersonation an officer and submitting a fake warrant. It’s incredible that Verizon fell for it, but what does it have to do with SMS?

AVincentInSpace ,

It means that if I want access to something that has been texted to you, I don’t exactly need to be a government in order to get it.

It would be fine if it weren’t for sim swapping.

But try asking anyone at your bank about a yubikey and watch them stare at you like you have broccoli growing out of your ears.

cabhan , in Rust's static linter is called "Clippy" for a reason.

I wish this was exaggerated, but it isn’t at all. Every time I try to learn Haskell, I end up in some tutorial: “You know how you sometimes need to represent eigenvectors in an n-dimensional plane with isotonically theoretical pulsarfunctions? Haskell types make that easy!”

ApexHunter , in It's that time of the year again!

I can’t be the only one disappointed by the lack of an order by clause after being told the list was being sorted (twice!)…

user1234 , in Not mocking cobol devs but yall are severely underpaid for keeping fintech alive

Cobol is the B-52 of programming languages. Sure there are fancy and expensive new ones or there, but it’ll probably outlast them all.

hglman ,

That’s a pretty good analogy, but it’s Fortran and B-52. Fortran is very good at what it does to this day. Cobol was never good.

CanadaPlus ,

Cobol is a Hornet. Still used for production in first-world countries, but basically just because of shitty, slow-moving institutions.

PizzaMane , in I'll just be a quick 3h

At work, I am currently dealing with a table that has no primary key, no foreign key, duplicate (almost) serial numbers, booleans stored as strings, and so on. It’s a nightmare of a table.

Entity framework is acting like I’m on meth for using such a table.

SaintWacko ,

How about a date stored as an integer?

Edit: and I’m not taking about a timestamp

PizzaMane ,

No, we have worse. Dates sometimes stored as strings, sometimes as datetimes, and sometimes as integers. There is no consistency, logic, or forethought to the schema.

It’s rough.

peyotecosmico ,

I’ve been there and you know what’s worse about it? When you fix it only you or a handful of people notice the astronomical labor you did.

“It worked before why did you change it? You are just doing busywork”

PizzaMane ,

Yeah. Luckily the work I am doing is to fix some really bad work that the entire company has been complaining about. So once it’s fixed it will hopefully be a little bit more recognition than that. Plus my boss is pretty level headed.

But who fucking knows? There is always the likelihood that people will say things along those lines. And it ain’t my job to fight them on that.

ChickenLadyLovesLife ,

My all-time favorite database table was a table named STATE, meant to store all US states. It had 531 rows.

Relatable. 🤣

reverendsteveii ,

well, there’s confusion, paranoia, agitation and so many others…

psud ,

I have been trying to get people in my area to make their new table generically named, since it’s going to be the only table that can map a date range to a different date range, but I’m on holidays now, and they can’t imagine anything other than their little project needing this table, so it’s going to be named for this one project, and it’s columns will be named for the specific data they’ll hold :(

wow my history is identical :0

what a coincidence

ekky43 ,

I’m pretty sure almost no nerds use chatgpt, as chatgpt kinda takes the nerdiness out of the nerd.

Script kiddy might fit better, looking at stackoverflow from the past half year.

FQQD OP ,

Yeah, you’re kinda right. Nerd doesn’t fit perfectly

PrettyFlyForAFatGuy , in There once was a programmer

I can code a feature faster than i can debug ChatGPTs attempt. so long as it’s in JS

ChatGPT is better at bash than me though

i_am_hiding ,

The good thing about ChatGPT is that it gives you a starting point for languages you’re not familiar / rusty with.

KittyCat , in The temptation is always there

You can do better, define intergalactic variables that share the same memory location across multiple programs so you can seamlessly pass variables from one to the next.

hansl ,

The ONE TRUE CONSTANT; even with an infinite universe, the value is the same in all of them.

Fungah ,

Are the legends really true?

Decompose ,

Is that you… Windows 95?

Fungah ,

But not sand memory. It’s coars ena drogjh and irritating and gets everywhere.

TheSecurityNinja , in emacs

VS code is pretty amazing though

pchem , in D or d come on

So you type cd D tab and it brings you to Documents

ItsMeForRealNow , in What came first, the programmer or the code?

It’s almost as if we all work better when working together.
