Maturing as a developer is giving yourself time and peace of mind to explore the problem space before landing on an elegant solution.

Instead of: barge in, smack keyboard on desk, type furiously, fail, type more furiously, fail more, etc.

@simeon when does this maturing usually start?

I get that is popular with people who don't want to share a server with anybody (and their rules). But don't lots of people achieve that with a stripped down implementation of ?

@hamishcampbell @wjmaggos I started with Nostr and later came to Mastodon, now using Mastodon much more.
Still I do not get the fixation on blocking, especially instance blocking, here, probably since I never had problems with anyone online.
It happens from time to time that I cannot follow people here, since our instances do not federate.
That could not happen on Nostr.

Mir ist gerade noch mal klar geworden wie schwierig es ist Philosophie wirklich als ein in Kern eben NORMATIVES Projekt darzustellen, man neigt in der Alltagssprache dazu die normative Ebene irgendwie zu unterschlagen. Zum Beispiel sage ich im Podcast, dass für G.A. Cohen KonservativIsmus bedeutet, dass man den Schmerz spürt, wenn Institutionen sich verändern, selbst wenn sie sich verbessern. So formuliert ist das natürlich streng genommen nur uninteressantes Psychologie-Geschwätz…

How would a ban differ from instance blocks?

@schizanon@mas.to avatar

"streaming" is one of those words I don't trust in ; it sounds simple and desirable, but in practice it's almost always more trouble than it's worth.

jraedisch,
@jraedisch@mastodon.social avatar

@schizanon for example, uses sockets for streaming events, but you have to periodically ping to find out if really no new events or connection closed. Ping is part of the websocket spec, but somehow no Nostr relay seems to implement it, or I am doing it wrong. They are sending back an error message though, which is basically the same as a Pong.

Today is my birthday!

If you'd like to do something for me for my birthday, would you please reply to this with—or by other means send me— something with colors you liked? Like an image or a video or a link. Music would also be acceptable if it gives you a strong synesthesiac association with color.

If this request confuses you, here are some examples of images with colors I found striking [Artists: Laurie Barmore, Vian Borchert, Erica Aurahack]. But your reply can be whatever colors you like.

The social aspect of being a movie lover isn't fun anymore. Talking about them, critiquing, analyzing, interpreting, mocking - these used to be good ways to connect to other humans about shared cultural interests.

Today, if you say or post anything about any movie, that opinion is bucketed into "woke" or "anti-woke" as part of the neverending culture nuclear war. An internet fully trained on ragebait videos and thinking that's all there is to media literacy, incapable of nuance.

jraedisch,

@rodhilton are there Mastodon users putting others in “woke” buckets? Haven’t met them. Probably instance blocked😝. But seriously: having trolls is awesome. Just don’t feed them!

How can private persons buy real estate at all? Do they pay extreme premiums over enterprises? They surely pay much more for credit, generally have no benefits of scale. Why is not all land owned by companies?

guard clauses are a brainworm

if(!whatIWant) handleError
if(!otherThingIWant) handleOtherError
doWhatIWant

negation operators are confusing and it reads backwards.

if() statements are for the condition you want

else is for exception handling

if (whatIWant)
if(otherThingIWant) doWhatIWant
else handleOtherError
else handleError

this reads better because you don't have to negate the conditions and what you want comes first.

jraedisch,
@jraedisch@mastodon.social avatar

@schizanon I like the convention of having the most meaningful code (what you would like to happen if all criteria are met) at the end. Validations and errors tend to happen along the way, and guard clauses get rid of them immediately instead of having to carry them around.

I must not work on weekends. Working on weekends is the mind-killer. Working on weekends is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face the JIRA tasks that arrive on weekends. I will permit them to pass over me and through me. And when they have gone past I will turn the inner eye to see their path. Where the work-need has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

If you do contract work for a government agency, you have to live with the fact that their IT department will do their best, usually through bureaucracy and incompetence, to make your work nigh impossible.

@danjac I just asked because I am not a big fan of context switching. Two projects at a time is my maximum. Prefer one.

jraedisch,

@danjac working at an agency now and also before. But my projects luckily were dense enough. Usually full time for a couple of months. Of course maintenance afterwards, but that did not occupy me every week.

@danjac I took some unpaid leave lately to work on side stuff. My boss did not mind, even encouraged me. Wonder what that means😅.
