Back in the days of Twitter, @platformalist did Tweet Tweet Jam, a challenge where you would submit games coded with 500 characters or under.

Now I'm here, and he's still hosting it - this year is Tweet Tweet Jam 9, and you have 6 more days to submit your 500 character games:

From time to time I stumble onto a modern Tweet worth adding to my https://davidbisset.social collection (via #mastodon).


About #coding / #tech industry:

"Early in my career, I joined a project that used a lot of #SQL.

I was new to SQL so I found an “intro to SQL” book on the company bookshelf, and read it over a weekend.

From that point on, I was seen as an SQL expert amongst colleagues.

It was a revelation about our industry."

Also: #books still very useful.

Today I am writing on the AIC functions available in my hashtag#R hashtag#Package TidyDensity.

There are many of them, with many more on the way. Some of them are a little temperamental but not to worry it will all be addressed.

My approach is different then that of fitdistrplus which is an amazing package. I am trying to forgo the necessity of supplying a start list where it may at times be required.

I am now working on my own chess API and it’s actually pretty fun. I learned that using bitboards is apparently very efficient. So I now use 8 64bit bitboards, 2 for the color and 6 for the pieces (I thought about just using 7 because you COULD theoretically represent the colors in one bitboard, but using 2 makes it faster at the expense of an extra 64 bit, which is neglegible). Gonna continue on this in the upcoming days :3

Evolution of how I think of while :

  1. When I first learned "loops":

while (condition is true) {do these things, adjust things so a slightly new condition is checked}

// That's where I first saw infinite loop and how there are intentional infinite loops.

  1. A small step to move condition update out of the loop body:

for (i=0; i< N; i++) {do these things}

// After the couple of days it took to get used to them, I found them neater and closer to how I think of things.

  1. Most of the time, the i from before is indexing into something, so let's directly deal with the item being indexed:

for item in collection:
do stuff

After the few days to rewire syntax muscle memory, going back would decidedly feel like a step back.

I don't want to give up automatic (and transparent) out-of-bound checks.

  1. There are actually only about 3/4 things one does inside a loop:

map/fold/scan/filter function-to-call collection-to-traverse-through

;; Getting rid of explicit indexing was just step one.
-- After a few days/months/years, I now realize that it is more important and less buggy if I think only of the function to call (and whether I want to end up with a new (maybe pruned) collection, a single thing, or "both" (that's how I think of scans))


Alternatively, my evolution as I learned new languages idioms:

The feeling when 87.5% of the discussion under your contribution is about #bureaucracy : unreliable CI and insignificant #style #bikeshedding .

Congrats, the project has created a barrier to entry for anyone who hasn't been into it for years already.

Hint: give everyone a freaking #linter that satisfies your needs and let us move on to actual work, without having to redo the same stuff 8 times. Sheesh.

I've got a strange one for all my friends today.

I rebased a local branch of a repo and did the usual push --force to overwrite the remote branch.

A git status shows everything is great but five seconds later is showing the same conflict due to the diverging branches.

If I exit out of VSC I can run git push --force and the conflict doesn't return.

I can open the files in WebStorm and all is fine.

But the moment I open VSC the conflict returns

Argh... reviewing a colleague's python code, and he's used ChatGPT or Copilot or some other AI "helper" to write a bunch of the code. And it's just got a load of "Why the hell have you done this?" bits. Especially in the unit tests - it really doesn't know how to write pytest tests.

If you don't know what you're doing it looks halfway reasonable, and it kind-of-sort-of works, but... you'd never write that code if you were doing it yourself.

Exciting news for R users! TidyDensity's latest update introduces util_chisquare_param_estimate(), leveraging MLE to estimate Chi-square distribution parameters like dof and ncp.

Generate a dataset with rchisq() and use util_chisquare_param_estimate() to analyze it, even without knowing the underlying distribution. Visualize results with tidy_combined_autoplot().

Try it in your next R project!

People often talk about Emacs vs Vim. Every developer I’ve met uses Vim. Occasionally, some of the vim users will say they have previously emacs, but switched to vim.

So where are all the people who are currently using Emacs?

I’m not trolling or looking for an argument. I legit want to know!

has been great for writing, listening to internet radio, connecting to and , managing multi accounts and maybe some if I get bored. It's more than just a text editor and can be a to many great applications.

Modern current code should run asynchronously if possible and useful. Slowly but steadily, it is being implemented in almost all popular programming languages, including WebDev.
