That’s hot

If “build the server and client in the same language” is a hard requirement, I believe your only choice is JavaScript…

The tone of the post makes me think you’re newer to programming, so I’ll leave it at that, as extensions to this question can overwhelm quickly, but yeah, JavaScript is a fine language for what you’re doing

I probably have about 3-4 hours remaining on Tales of Xillia on the PS3. I’ve really enjoyed this one (this is my 4th or 5th Tales game, AFAIR). Hoping to finish before the week (weekend?) is up.

After extended sessions of any of the Telltale adventures (Walking Dead, etc), I would spend about 10 minutes post-game with the sense that real-life conversations were like, scripted, and I was navigating by selecting the best option.

Arguably, not a wrong assessment of life, but it feels really gamified when affected

I only know a couple singles, but I get the sense Primus is pretty wacky

Earl Grey with honey and oat milk. Orange Pekoe/English Breakfast with sweetener and oat milk. Chai with milk. Or a straight herbal tea

Putting aside the “should/shouldn’t do” argument, I was also wondering if the code is even viable. I imagine that ‘ls’ and ‘sudo’ are probably pretty ubiquitous, but I bet there exist some Linux installs out there with a different shell than ‘bash’, and some might not have ‘grep’ too. That would lead to some pretty cryptic bugs for the end user, eh?

What a strange article. The reasoning for why 22 is interesting though very straightforward, and the rest of the article is essentially “I asked for port 22, and they gave it to me”. Little fanfare, little in way of storytelling conflict.

Not an issue in and of itself, but strange with a title of the form “This is the story of…” That sort of titling usually begets intrigue and triumph over adversity, dunnit?

Well, this has piqued my interest. I’m glad it’s more substantial than a straight remake/remaster

It reminds me of Last Week Tonight when the last elections were coming up.

You can tell Cody is both wanting to make a comedy show and also scream into a pillow. I think what they’re doing is good, but I imagine the research and writing process is agonizing.

Yeah, I’ve implemented OTP before, and I can think of no way this could be a surveillance move. If they required you use their app because they use a custom solution, sure, maybe, but they’re OTP is currently entirely standard, so you can use a plethora of app (or roll your own in about 14 lines of Python)

There is one thing I’ve never been clear with unions. Is there a minimum company size (perceived or real) that defines their usefulness? Like, as an extreme example, if 3 people made a company in their garage, I feel a union is overkill (tell me I’m wrong), but if that company grew to 10 people…is it suddenly realistic? What about 15? 20? 100?

Like, I work for a small startup and don’t feel a union is a pressing need, but I’ve always wondered if that’s the propaganda working or something more intrinsic to how a union is defined/finds purpose

I haven’t played it - and the “social anxiety as horror”-slant feels more metaphorical than literal in its marketing - but this makes me think of the game “Homebody” a bit

All roads lead to woodworking

I think this belongs here.

I also love the idea of some sort of CI/CD pipeline with this in its linting stage

I kinda feel your pain. A project that I helped launch is written in Typescript technically, but the actual on-the-ground developers were averse to using type safety, so any is used everywhere. So, it becomes worst of both worlds, and the code is a mess (I don’t have authority in the project anymore, and wouldn’t touch it even if I could).

I’m also annoyed at some level because some of the devs are pretty junior, and I fear they are going to go forward thinking Typescript or type safety in general is bad, which hurts my type-safety-loving-soul

It’s not the biggest or best, but I’ve always found the effect on “Always” by blink-182 to be pretty effective
