@yacineMTB @jeffdo Sure, let’s recompile the entire app every time I get a different idea

@cmuratori @ukslim Because my 80 year old dad, who barely can enter a URL into his browser, would not figure it out otherwise. "User experience" encompasses people whose mental capacity is not the same as yours or mine.

@mikeness any chance you’ll ever do another show as your solo project (not Social D)? It’s been on my bucket list for more than 15 years to see Under the Influences and Cheating at Solitaire live . These two albums changed my life

@alex_toresh @timmisiak Haha. Glad to be of service! As masochistic as it may sound, I actually really miss working on that PDB stuff, it was a lot of fun

@shaun_LAL16 @GergelyOrosz Extremely intricate behavior, subtle bugs. Graphical bugs, and very high pressure to ship fast

@rfleury Google’s DORA research team has published data about this at scale

@tritlo @molecularmusing There's plenty that can be done. People can stop using standard library and develop their own library. Someone could explore alternative compilation model that uses a daemon to keep AST of all source files in memory. About 90% of all work compiler does is redundant.

[nobodyreally @gamefeast]

@tritlo @molecularmusing Vast majority of the compile time is due to terrible language design choices and an inefficient arcane compilation model

@bekahkashtan @babybeginner @flamewave7 @RebeccaAVelo @ianmiles They’re offended at being referred to by a word other than their preferred word. Surely you can appreciate that.

@GergelyOrosz What’s your definition of big tech? Is it based on market cap, employee count, TC, or something else?

[nobodyreally @gamefeast]

@ZubyMusic Please suggest an alternative.

[nobodyreally @gamefeast]

@molecularmusing Unfortunately what you just described as bad is literally the core language. The language can no longer be used without the library, so what’s our recourse?

[nobodyreally @gamefeast]

@molecularmusing Now consider that most boost devs are on the standards committee and you can see why this language is becoming so terrible

[nobodyreally @gamefeast]

@xLaszlo @johncutlefish Did you consider that it is actually extremely hard to run a tech company well, and there are a constrained amount of people that are highly skilled at it. What other outcome is there but to stay?

[nobodyreally @gamefeast]

@AlexStrook Vampire Survivors is an indie game, costs $3, and gives you 50+ hours of replayable content.

@allenholub It’s called practical concerns of the real world and risk mitigation. I’m Not putting potentially millions of dollars of dollars in revenue on the line for some unachievable perfectionist ideal 🙄

[nobodyreally @gamefeast]

@supahvee1234 @banisterfiend What kind of hoops? Most languages with a reflection system support trivial deep copying. One line of code in python, for example.

[nobodyreally @gamefeast]

@lemire Someone with no context is just as likely to think that is commented out code. It’s not a good comment except to the original author of the code (which by definition makes it a bad comment). This is what asserts are for.

@nomanautomata @GergelyOrosz If they’re coasting they would have gotten an even lower rating.

@ArguellesYasser @stefan_3d It’s vscode
