Somebody else put this but I had to LOL.

Figured others might have some network people to poke fun at with it :)

And the winners are .... Books that survived the purge. #Clojue #Erlang #LISP

R.I.P. Mr Wirth. Pascal was my first programming language.

So, I guess the cat's out of the bag: announcing the existence of Electric Clojure: Differential Electric, i.e. differential dataflow for UI. Come meet up in NYC on Jan 25 where I'll be sharing details for the first time! https://t.co/XJCz3gOlxo @ElectricClojure #clojure

Good stuff in this thread

[M-x tips @iLemming]

The big problems with aging in the industry are health-related. There are several occupational diseases that any programmer sooner or later will have to deal with and the older professionals rarely warn the youngsters about them, and rarely coach them with preemptive measures.

I like the expression: “hammer of choice”

[Chas (Anxiety Goblin) Emerick @cemerick]

@mark_engelberg I very occasionally feel some FOMO re: rust (mostly due to its library selection and wasm targeting), but absent some tectonic shift, I expect to be using OCaml as my hammer of choice for a long while.

[Chas (Anxiety Goblin) Emerick @cemerick]

@swannodette Yeah, likewise, my post wasn't to knock the utility of REPLs 🙂

[Paweł @pol84_]

So true... I think this applies to reading books as well. Read at lest two at the 'same' time.

Productivity tip: work on at least two projects so you can use one project for procrastinating on the other.

@gregyoung Also, we’d have to stop using GUIDs and switch everything to UUIDs.

There are two hard things in computer science: cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-one errors.

[Paweł @pol84_]

@ManfredSteyer @RickStrahl Sounds interesting. Which model?

[Paweł @pol84_]

@tekazabu @RickStrahl At least you can assemble your own if you need a desktop.

[Paweł @pol84_]

@RickStrahl Any AMD recommendations?
