I’m in Europe, so if anything that would benefit us x)

In moments like this I always wonder if I should temporarily make my PC unusable by reselling the component that’s overpriced.

Then wait out the shortage and buy 4x as much RAM then x)

Almost did it with my GPU during covid.

I use ed too…

Except I have alias ed=$EDITOR and export EDITOR=nvim in my .zshrc x)

JavaScript is great for making websites !

The real solution is humane working hours. If you can’t wake up on time, it means you shouldn’t even be waking up at that time.

Some people sleep late. That’s normal. It should be accommodated for.

Yes and no. “Real” programmers care about engineering choices ; and JS is the cardboard of programming languages.

Perfect for packaging (which in this metaphor is UI), horrible for building a bridge with. And vice-versa, I wouldn’t try and make amazon packaging out of reinforced concrete.

JavaScript really depends on the people writing it restricting themselves to a sane (ish) subset, just like C++

My personal gripe with JavaScript is how horribly slow it is. C++ at least has the merit of being fast once compiled. I wouldn’t feel great contributing to a JS project knowing fully well that a rewrite in a faster language would be 10x as effective as anything I could improve as is.
