IDEs have had subscriptions for ages. The build server is a cloud service because local machines can be slow to compile and not everyone has an on-site build server.

You can’t fit it in Wordle with a hard R

But you CAN fit it without it

Gender neutral pronouns might be pretty huge too, but nobody’s private data is getting hacked because of gendered pronoun use.

I’m seriously considering dropping everything and jumping to Rust because of Cargo.

Well if you’re into game dev, ECS and Rust, there’s like a 99% chance you know of it, but just in case you don’t: We have bevy, now with an extra full-time dev (Alice, who’d been working hard at it for years, I think she’s a bigger contributor than the author himself at this point lol)

I’m not a teacher, and I don’t want to become one tbh.

That said, something like Python is standard, and for good reason IMO. For OOP they usually teach Java here, though I’m not a huge fan. I think Kotlin would be better to teach nowadays. There are other OO languages of course, but I’m of the opinion that after messing around with Python, students should probably use something strongly typed, so that’s JavaScript out - I suppose TypeScript could be used, but IMO it’d be best to keep JS/TS in a web dev specific course.

That’s because C++ is such a high performance language, it gets things done faster

I like the kiosks and haven’t really received lukewarm fries, but the food IS overpriced, isn’t as fast as fast food should be, and quite often they mess up the order too.

Removed by mod

Oh definitely

These are both made by the same person from this PR (who also made both the package the PR is on, and the is-number package that is being removed as a dep)

You’re right, I believe the only thing Switzerland mandated (or wants to mandate?) is for projects built FOR the government to be open sourced - and even then, there are exemptions.

Of course, unlike you, I don’t live in Switzerland, so I’m probably not as informed.

More limited, but also less enshittified than Windows.

If you want a good, well-polished experience for certain creative workloads, or even programming, MacOS is great and their Apple Silicon CPUs are excellent.

If you want to do ANY gaming besides WoW (which surprisingly enough has always had great MacOS support) or you can’t stand the lack of configurability, Linux is immediately the superior choice by far.

And let’s not talk about C++…

Don’t worry, people make plenty of jokes about C++ too.

Hell, people joke about my favourite language too - Cargo build times are a meme unto themselves.

I don’t think there’s a truly great dependency management system there. Though all in all, I’ve generally had no MAJOR issues with Cargo, Maven or Gradle.

Honestly, having watched it at some point, I’m fairly sure they mean the one that isn’t an old dude with a young latina trophy wife and is straight.

All those husbands are oblivious to a lot of shit, but that one is the absolute most oblivious lol

Your country is crazy.

I get maybe 3-4 spam messages a year and those are all scams, not ads, much less political ads (which I don’t think would even be legal)

You’re on track for early retirement. You’re likely well-disciplined.

Take this windfall, or at least some part of it, for something to enjoy. A holiday, a reasonable new vehicle if you drive (I.e not a luxury car of course), or maybe home improvements. Hell, make it a classic car that appreciates in value and only drive it on the weekends in the summer.

You can’t take your money to the grave with you and none of us truly knows if we’ll even make it to retirement. It’s great that you’re disciplined financially, but you should also enjoy life while you’re still young.

OR throw it all into whatever you’re currently investing in, and retire a year or 2 earlier. Idk.

It’s been deleted and I’m VERY intrigued. Do you still remember what it was all about?

I was just making a joke about your username being a distro tbh

It’s Puppy Linux, isn’t it?
