I'm am curious how you used satisfactory trains - I always found the satisfactory stations to be so overwhelmingly huge that they basically didn't fit anywhere (unless I build a layer of foundations a couple of hundred feet in the sky, which feels like cheating)

I was typing on a keyboard without a euro symbol, and ballparking the exchange rate was simpler than finding one :P

Followed the app's instructions to go to gate 15, sat there waiting for the gate to open, until eventually getting a notification that I'd missed the flight from gate 30. Went to the help desk, was told that since I was the only person who made that mistake it was clearly my fault rather than the app (which was still displaying the wrong gate, even while I was at the help desk). Got booked on a $400 replacement flight for a journey which was originally $50. In the queue to board the replacement flight, I meet around 20 other people who missed the same flight for the same reason, all being told "it's clearly your own fault, ryanair has no responsibility here"...

This is a reasonable point, if "enemies of freedom" and "enemies of America" are synonymous...

This doesn't prevent overrunning the buffer -- it means that when you do overrun the buffer, it does less damage

They stopped getting new features a few years ago, and existing features have been gradually removed...

People within Meta have been campaigning for this for _years_; even people as high up as John Carmack were pushing for open bootloaders on deprecated hardware (and he achieved that on the Go headset, but not as a general policy)

> It is sad that it takes a Meta developer having some fun to realize they should open up ADB.

I'm not even sure if the motivation is as positive as that - the video, blog, and dev docs read more like a sales pitch for meta's AI tools...

(I'm glad they did it, the portal is great hardware; but I don't expect that this will be a pattern of opening up old hardware unless it provides tangible benefits to the AI department)

javascript uses floats as its own default numeric data type; but other languages do have integers, and might want to convert those integers into a JSON (string) representation

FWIW you can still have a staging-area-like workflow with JJ - it's just that while git has "commits", "the staging area", "the working directory", and "stashes" as four separate concepts with four separate toolkits, in JJ all of those things are "commits" and a single toolkit works with all of them :)

Last I checked (2 years ago) Meta was using Sapling, a very heavily customised open source Mercurial frontend with proprietary backend.

FWIW the Sapling frontend can also be connected to a Git backend, and I've been using that for all my open source projects to get the best of Mercurial's user experience niceness while collaborating via GitHub <3

Except if you're posting stories online, in which case it's most likely a gibimesh, though people use the terms interchangeably

In the circles where I hang out I think community opinion is that go is _fine_, but python has faster iteration speed for experiments, and rust has better correctness and performance for production, so there's less excitement around it

Facebook started out PHP; but they ship-of-theseus'ed it into Hack by replacing the standard library, the language, and the runtime engine, so now it's a totally different thing with only a few superficial similarities (FWIW IMO Hack is much better than PHP, I'm sad that it never gained traction...)

I tried Sapling (Facebook's fork of mercurial with more polished git-compatibility layers) and never looked back for any of my own projects.

I recently started a new job where the vanilla git CLI is the only git frontend installed on company servers, and the regressions in user-experience are painful :(

Funnily enough I'm looking at getting a new phone because my pixel 6 battery no longer lasts 9am until 6pm without a mid-day charge -- I looked at the latest pixels (10) and they looked neat, but expensive; so took a look at the 9's, and saw they're basically exactly the same at 60% the price; then looked at the 8's and they're basically the same except 40% the price...

> When every variable that represents a byte quantity ends in _size and every item count ends in _count, a reviewer can spot dimensional mismatches almost mechanically

At that point I'd rather make them separate data types, and have the compiler spot mismatches actually-mechanically o.o

I do love jetbrains for its nice-to-have features (eg highlight a few lines in the middle of a spaghetti function -> right click -> extract to new function) and was paying for it out of my own pocket for several years; but had to switch to vscode for a couple of required features that jetbrains was missing (remote dev over ssh, and devcontainers); and now switched to zed for being "like vscode but faster"
