Anyone else keep nearly everything set to UTC?

@teft@lemmy.world avatar

In the military that’s all we used. It’s called Zulu time in the Army and it makes for coordinating events in multiple time zones fairly easy. I would assume the moon would be the same since there will 100% be a moon base with military.

I have response teams in a “follow the sun” model as well as having my US team spread coast to coast, plus all our clients set their servers to UTC. It makes the most sense to keep something set to UTC at a moment’s glance.

You have to adopt Emacs and show her that she can even play Tetris on it.

Hey at least you showed her your vim and not your nano or micro

FizzyOrange , in What are variables and semicolons for actually?

Neat FP style. Pretty verbose though. Someone should invent a terser syntax so you don’t need to write do_two_things everywhere. It’s a common operation so maybe it could even be a single character.

jendrik ,

Like a semicolon? No, too boring. What about >>=

TadoTheRustacean OP ,

If you know about rust you know it’s a programmable programming language, meaning that you can make macros. There could be a macro that would do that but 1. Macros is rust code to write rust code so they have the complexity of rust squared 2. I said to myself the only macros I will allow myself to use in this challenge is println and allow

Nah. Someone answered the question 3 years ago on a random Discord channel.

Discord is for chatting, not documentation. Anyone who thinks otherwise needs their brain examined.

I wish 15% and 18% were options. Normally it’s more like 20%, 25% (default), 28%, 30%

Literally saw 25% to 50% range the other day

"MILLENIALS ARE RUINING TIPPING!!1"

-Some fucking article written by an asshole boomer

Anticorp ,

Did you look them dead in the eyes and laugh, then walk away after manually entering 0?

EndlessNightmare ,

A 50% tip can get your credit card flagged as potentially fraudulent activity.

Rediphile ,

Wouldn’t they just see the total?

EndlessNightmare ,

I’ve had transactions flagged for (intentionally) leaving large tips before. These large tips were justified for various reasons, such as comped meals.

Could be the specific credit card company I use?

Rediphile ,

What makes you think it was flagged for a large tip specifically, rather than just an unusually high transaction?

It still confused me how they would know it was a $20 steak and $80 tip versus 5x $20 steaks and no tip. It would appear the same, a $100 transaction at Bob’s Steakhouse.

EndlessNightmare ,

The message specifically said it was due to the “unusually large tip”. They wanted me to confirm that it was intended.

If the article linked below is to be believed, the credit card company does indeed know how much of the transaction is a tip due to the way the transaction is processed. Note that this was at a full-service restaurant, not tipping at the counter for fast food or some other thing.

Consider when you pay with a credit card at a sit-down restaurant, they read the card first. Then you write in the tip on the receipt, meaning that they process this part later after the initial card reading. It is probably different with the tabletop self-checkout devices though.

Rediphile ,

Eventually people will say that about the current options lol.

There should be no default percent options at all. None.

‘complete transaction’ or ‘add optional tip’.

LordKitsuna ,

I hate %, give me a option to round up to the nearest 5. This is useful for my financial tracking, and I’m willing to bet a lot of people would like nice round numbers. If I buy a coffee or whatever and it’s $7 I round up to $10, not because I’m trying to give a good tip but because it’s more convenient for me when I’m sitting there doing my finances (I track everything) and while I know that not everyone would universally agree maybe they would only want to round up to the nearest whole dollar the fact remains I feel like most places would actually end up with more total tips overall if that was a one button option

Daxtron2 , in Three monitors, and i feel insulted

I think I’m up to 5 spread across two different workstations, but no rgb that shits annoying to me.

FiniteBanjo ,

Yeah I always make it one color or turn the LEDs off completely given the chance.

RisingSwell ,

I have some rgb on, laptop has back lightning that is brighter than my lamp though so that’s never on unless I need a torch and for some reason don’t have my phone.

JasonDJ ,

Not a software engineer (network engineer…so I dabble in Python but that’s about it).

Still, my work setup has over 14.5 million pixels spread across 4 displays, and usually another laptop or tablet going as well.

PhlubbaDubba , in How do we tell him ?

As long as you know what you need to be googling, you’ve got about ten times the programming knowledge that your company’s CEO probably has.

Noodle07 ,

Yeah I’m just a gamer and learned about pc just to make my games work but that’s how I became so good at googling. Never learned how java works but I sure can find which arguments to set on my launcher to make my modded Minecraft run better.

Corbin ,

Yeah, this list of sites is making me think of asking for a book by loudly asking a library, a series of coffeeshops, a chud microbrewery, and an 11-year-old bully. Try quietly reading in the library first, I guess.

@poopsmith@lemmy.world avatar

If you have a memory-mapped peripheral where there’s a readonly register, I could see it being const volatile.

IWantToFuckSpez , in Every damn time.

Yeah but have you ever coded shaders? That shit’s magic sometimes. Also a pain to debug, you have to look at colors or sometimes millions of numbers trough a frame analyzer to see what you did wrong. Can’t program messages to a log.

Can’t you run it on an emulator for debugging, Valgrind-style?
