@mattgodbolt I wish you the very best of luck in trying to recapture the rights to your own name from the annals of compiler history.

Finding SQL syntax instead of map() or filter() is the kind of shenanigans I expect from PHP not C# but here we are

@penryu@hachyderm.io avatar

@wreimers Or Python! (a la comprehensions)

Is this about LINQ? Or have they dome something worse now?

penryu,
@penryu@hachyderm.io avatar

@wreimers Yeah, and in this case, real SQL is a lot more efficient than LINQ... in any form — the fancy syntax or the defancified extension method form.

#macos peeps - to iterm2 did a LLM thing in their terminal emulator. i just uninstalled it from my system, anyone able to recommend a lightweight replacement to the default macOS terminal.app?

penryu,
@penryu@hachyderm.io avatar

@pete_wright I switched from iTerm2 to kitty a while back. Not as GUI-friendly as iTerm, but was able to unify configs across the 4 OSes.

Looked at alacritty a while back, but stability wasn't great at the time. It's in the queue to revisit soon.

@evan If international law is something that all nations have agreed to honor, then all nations should honor it. Otherwise it begins to resemble imperialism.

Another day, another problem caused by OS vendors half-applying updates without permission. I am seriously disgusted with my former colleagues.

penryu,

@Obdurodon I must follow different feeds. What happened?

penryu,
@penryu@hachyderm.io avatar

@Obdurodon Ah, thanks for the info. I've seen occasional issues of that sort on macOS. Much less on Linux, simply because I usually run them headless.

No shame in Chromebooks. I started running MacBooks for work some time ago and have stuck with them mostly out of habit.

That said, I've had such good luck with Asahi on Apple M-series CPUs, I've only had to reboot into macOS for the occasional piece of software that hasn't been bothered to support Linux/aarch64... YET!

So, despite what rational sense as well as several dictates would seem to demand, we are attempting to use the "Cmake Projects in Visual Studio" feature of MSVS https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/build/cmake-projects-in-visual-studio?view=msvc-170

We have… questions, which the docs don't seem to answer.

  1. Many places in the VS docs refer to "the project" as if it were a singular file ( see screenshot of https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/build/reference/common-macros-for-build-commands-and-properties?view=msvc-170 ). In the case of a CMake Target Project, what is "the project" in this sense? The CMakeLists.txt? The The CMakeSettings.json?

@BoredomFestival @mcc @wreimers The one time I worked directly on xbs, also involved cmake doc rabbitholes. 😭

According to my bathroom scale, I gained 6 lbs. yesterday.

Part of me wants to see how many days I can do that in a row.

it seems my brain is not very compatible with yml feel like if it were json or toml, i didn't even need reference, i just understands it syntax... strange feels like a lot of ppl are the opposite way

penryu,
@penryu@hachyderm.io avatar

@potatomeow yaml was invented to drive the demand for yaml syntax validators

penryu,
@penryu@hachyderm.io avatar

@potatomeow It's not just you.

YAML permits comments. And it is easier to read than JSON. I can look at YAML source and see: "Oh, that's a blockquote, and that's a table of key-value pairs."

But I have NEVER been able to write either of those syntaxes from memory; I always need to reference another sample of YAML code, or look up the docs. Maybe if I'd done more k8s stuff I'd have yml beaten in my head?

And that was all BEFORE they decided to make YAML a superset of JSON...

Just had an amusing thought.

The one thing Google still does passably well is operating systems. Despite their flaws, Android and ChromeOS are both pretty handy to have around. Meanwhile, the rest of the company blows goats more every day.

The funny thing is that it's the exact opposite trajectory to Microsoft. They were a decent compiler company, then they were an awful anti-competitive OS company, then they started sucking less until now.

penryu,
@penryu@hachyderm.io avatar

@Obdurodon To clarify... Is Microsoft still on its sucking-slightly-less trajectory? Or has it stopped?
