@heyitszeyla That happens a lot to me and my "unusual" https://t.co/Lbcslva0ua domain. Sites often try to autocorrect it to https://t.co/0nGoZZKjtg. ๐
@heyitszeyla The neat thing about the US design is that the plugs can be optionally polarised (just by having the prongs be the same width), whereas the Aus/NZ plugs are always polarised.
@heyitszeyla The asymmetry is pretty clever and enables your kettle, etc. to have ungrounded polarised plugs. The plug design used in Australia and New Zealand is another example of this. ๐ค
Most of us haven't used floppy drives for over 2 decades. So why should the A: and B: drive letters still be reserved? Wouldn't it be more logical to make A: the system drive? I thought so, so I went ahead and did it. ๐ค
@futuresprog Guess I'll find out soon enough! Luckily I have this setup in a VM snapshot so I can roll things back if it gets too catastrophic. I'll file bug reports for stuff that breaks, just like I filed bug reports for programs that didn't handle `argc == 0` correctly. ๐ค
@zigdon I know, right? Names like A:\Windows\System32 are still weird to me, but, I felt much the same way when I tried variable-width fonts for coding for the first time. After a while, I got used to it. I'll get used to this, too. ๐คฃ
I hope a .NET version of @kotlin arrives, not just so that it's the One Language To Rule Them All, but also as a vehicle for the One Brace Style To Rule Them All. #kotlinlove
My #1 fave @kotlin feature: 1TBS is *mandatory*. "In Kotlin, semicolons are optional, and therefore line breaks are significant. The language design assumes Java-style braces, and you may encounter surprising behavior if you try to use a different formatting style." #kotlinlove
