I think you guys should stop learning languages and start learning programming already.

Teaching native kids to read English is probably a nightmare. In Russian the word's spelling roughly corresponds to its pronunciation (not 100%, but if you vocalize the spelling it's very close to its pronunciation). Which makes teaching reading a matter of teaching the alphabet.

Rederedereference

If you thought pointers are hard wait until you learn about this little-known special operator in C which is called redereference.

4 PHP is not very much

What I think is important is to continue caring about the things you love despite anything. The storm will pass. The chaff will be blown away. Good work will continue standing.

The attitude we desperately need in Tech

This is an emoji I made long time ago. It's called PHPotato.

I respect my computer so much I talk to it in its native language.

The kinda emails I get these days man

Looking through a really old backup drive today and I have a directory that contains only this image and I don't know where it came from

There is probably an alternative universe where the programming language developers didn't use the word "token" to denote a lexeme and the whole weird cryptocurrency-esque discourse about LLM outputs has never happened.

Future is notoriously hard to predict.

Nobody ever wrote code "by hands". You write code with your brain. Or you don't.

Do you guys remember when Linus denied C++ because it's used by "substandard programmers" and "it's much much easier to generate a total and utter crap with it"?

A lot of shit we are dealing with in the modern computer systems is an adversarial complexity that serves no purpose except making things harder for the benefit of the system's owners. The main problem is that lot of people believe this complexity is necessary.

For a while the existence of soybean oil confused me because I thought soybeans are the source of proteins. Not oils. But apparently it's both.

How to check that 2 rectangles intersect

We've been discussing the meaning of the word "soydev" on the latest stream. And Spanish folks told me that "soydev" just means "I'm dev".

Been learning C for the past couple weeks, from basically 0 programming experience This weekend I tried to put the knowledge into practice and tried to make a program for the MSX, using the MSXgl lib Made a chord player for the AYM based on key presses! It's still very rough but I'm proud of it!!

Made a small writeup on this if anybody is interested rexim.github.io/blog/buildin...

I like the self-aware slogan of CMake

It's really funny to watch how the sponsorship spammers use LLMs to analyze transcriptions of my streams to come up with a compelling hook which results in funny emails like this

I'm not switching from Linux for the same reason Windows people don't switch from Windows. I just got used to.

What I like about not using LLM-based tools is writing code is so tedious you are looking for solutions to write less code or no code at all and you usually find them. Which improves your project dramatically in a longer run.

I'm at the point of Jai meta-programming where I'm considering to code generate Enums out of Photoshop file layers at compile time and it doesn't sound that crazy or even that difficult.

We have a channel about keyboards
