Heute wieder in sonem Restaurant gewesen, wo sich am Ende rausstellte “Kein Bargeld, nur Karte, steht doch an der Türe!1” und wenig später “nee AMEX nehmen wir nicht”. Wasn Kindergarten. Wie kann man bitte so bräsig sein? Sind sind so Leute einfach nur unterreflektiert oder bewusst hässig? Junge Junge…

xfce4 really is the best choice for this tiny intel atom laptop. it's not just the frugal use of resources. it's also that window title bars are narrower. optimal for this 1366 x 768 display.

their inofficial tagline is "XFCE. We Are So Conservative, We Only Just Released Version 4."

@Doomed_Daniel @Doomed_Daniel that makes the tagline even better. i made the adjustment.

@Doomed_Daniel gnome and kde just hate getting told their dick is small, constantly playing catch up with who swings the biggest schlong at the time.

xfce is like "our desktop is for pussies, thats why our logo is a mouse"

if a novice programmer can code something that runs in a safe language, then an experienced programmer can translate this program to optimized, high-performance semantics.

i theorize that the experienced programmer's job can be sufficiently automated, provided that we control the novice's language, without requiring silly differentiable algorithms.

@morten_skaaning you got it. pretending resources are unlimited is silly anyway.

it would btw be really cool to be able see in the source editor what the cost of each line is, as you write it.

@raptor85 @morten_skaaning i'd argue that it teaches you something for a while - eventually you'll run out of new things to learn, having adopted a set of best practices. then you see the cost "blind" if you will

duangle never took VC money. that's why we're crawling at a snail's pace, but we're crawling with dignity.

@TomF @pervognsen SPIRV enforces structured control flow so what i did for scopes is make three big nestable flow ops:

if - branch out, no args
loop - reentrant goto, repeat args
label - deferred forward goto, merge args

I have served myself a double cheesecake portion, with fresh blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries. I have made myself a pot of half-caf. I'm rolling Friday the 13th (1980) and will continue to roll sequels until I'm ready to sleep.

i'm increasingly growing fond of the API error handling style as it is done in GL 4; the idea being that you register a callback for things that went wrong, and then you can decide from there how to handle it: print a warning, log to file, abort (for debugger), longjmp, raise an error... it's more versatile than dealing with exceptions or return codes because you're still in the correct call stack for that error.
