this isn't recent but ill use any excuse like "im new to linux" if it means i can justify spending time on distractions like this instead of preparing for exams or my talk at the next local rust meetup

were talking about how rust's `unwrap` is badly named and it would be better if the language made the good option easy...
looked up how zig does it. `orelse` and `catch` are nice [1], cool. but then I noticed... the way zig spells rust's `unwrap_unchecked` as `.?` [2]
this is insaneeeeeee

you aren’t supposed to learn the trade of software development at any university because that would require that academics learn it first. CS and subfields don’t try to do nearly as much as they should to maintain their status
Professors teach the children and (from what I saw when I was in school) Computer Science University Professors don't use version control.

i apologize to the people who i ignored who were telling me to learn git because i didn't appreciate how cool it is to be a time wizard capable of looking at the entire history of every single line.

what a nightmare. currently in a situation where I am facing unjust eviction and need to find accomodation quickly, but at least I am not post-education unemployed and moving across the country
3 years ago today, Riot Games offered me a job making more money than I ever thought I’d make in my life. I had 19 interviews over 2.5 months to get it. Partner and I were moving to LA for it. I put in notice at my job and apartment.
2 weeks later they rescinded the offer due to “headcount issues”.

imo, you're overthinking it. i've watched playtesters who were focused on the gameplay not hear a voice line, not read a subtitle, and ignore three lit in-world signs in the dark then get lost
ive had someone i was on mic with not hear my words when i told them what to do 5x
attention is weird

You wanna know why we're having nag line discourse in 2025? Because developers know we're fighting an attention economy war we'll lose no matter what. Players don't read, have TikTok open next to them, god forbid we are scared you miss something and then blame us for not giving you all the info.
