As much as this hurts, yeet; as an alias throw; is hilarious

The technology behind the registry is fine (which is what I think @VinesNFluff meant)

But it's execution in Windows was ass

In theory, a configuration manager with DB-like abilities (to maintain relationships, schematic integrity, and to abstract the file storage details), isn't a bad idea

But the registry as it is today is pure pain

Sanity checks

Always, always check if your assumptions are true

  • am i even running the function?
  • is this value what i think it is?
  • what is responsible for loading this data, and does it work as expected?
  • am i pointed at the right database?
  • is my configuration set and loaded in correctly?

I've never done that in my life

Software dev here,

It doesn't stop you from typing code, but it does drastically hinder the process. You often need to pull up technical documentation (for the language, framework, platform, etc), or search the internet for things, like "C# HttpClient how to serialize JSON with a different naming policy"

Not to mention, if any of your dev resources are online, no Internet prevents you from running your code. Like, if you need to connect to an S3 bucket, AWS instance, or Azure Database

I've been running Linux for 4 years, but this still hurts to read

I mean, you just need to look at the conflicting files, fix up the code, then stage those changes and pop a new commit

There's no "special" merge conflict resolution commit "type"


As for fixing the code itself, I usually look at what changed between both versions, and then re-author the code such that both changes make "sense"

Once in Uni, I had a class switch rooms, but I was still using the old schedule

It wasn't until the wrong prof came in and started talking about math that I realized "this isn't my CompSci 210"

Any time you feel that sinking feeling especially while browsing c/all or such, close the app and do something else

Doomscrolling is not worth your sanity


This is the reason I recently unsubed from a bunch of meme threads on Lemmy. They were a non-stop barrage of political doom posting.

Understandable, given current events. But it was too much for me

What about quaternions?

 

The weight of the material is supported by your shoulders, and not your hips, which is far more comfortable in general

In addition to having more room for pockets, overalls can carry heavier things without falling down, nor need for a belt

Since the weight of the material is carried at the shoulders, bending down at the waist is easier and less restricted. The waistband no longer needs to be tight, since it no longer serves a functional purpose
