Don't worry about it! I hope it also prevented you from getting your daily amount of vitamin D

very good stuff, thanks

The only way to understand compilers is to have already written one.

goes hard

it follows the UNIX philosophy of doing one thing and donig it well.

very thoughtful response, thank you.

i see they provide WHOIS privacy for free, great! i'm worried about exposing my personal information on the internet. do people really put their personal address there?

is it still a smart move to choose cloudfare considering the recent accidents? the prices are low and you have the guarantee they will not disappear in 10 years or sold to an ad ag…

Yeah, he should also define "you". Is he talking about me, you or himself?

With all the new CLI tools it looks like the opposite to me. For example the ag, ack, rg history. VS Code still has the same style from 2018.

I don't think terminal multiplexers (even Zellij which claims not to be one) make the experience better. They make it worse, actually, because when you have a problem there's one m…

Another fellow GVim user?

I didn't understand much of you said but it sounded mathy so I'm going to reply with a counterexample, just look up on youtube Russ Cox solving AoC with Acme and tell me that's not…

I don't understand the idea to make everything terminal-centric. It should be one component of all the tools available to the programmer. All text editors worth using have a way to…

I too found it pretty funny

I find fascinating the contributions to computer science by jewish computer scientists [0]. They really pioneered the field, especially cryptography, where they seem to dominate. I…

it's a joke

why is it so common then? does everyone have a procrastination problem?

Many developers spend a lot of time "sharpening the axe" for the alleged excuse of increased productivity. At what point this actually causes the opposite effect? I'm proposing thi…

what do you think about ctags? i think when trying to understand a codebase for the first time a tool to quickly look up definitions, etc. helps immensively

Do you know any practical books that show how to implement a parser starting from a CF grammar (preferably in C)? All compiler books lack the practical part. I would like to see ho…
