Microsoft realized they were losing basically the entire software development market to Linux so they started adding features like a pretty alright terminal emulator and a shell that almost looks POSIXcompliant if you squint (and don’t pass any flags to its built in commands) and trying ineffectually to hide the fact that they were basically on their knees saying BLEASE COME BACK WE NEED YOU
what kind of config file is short enough to fit on a single screen with line breaks?
Alright, the YAML spec is a dang mess, that I’ll grant you, but it seems pretty easy for my human eyes to read and write. As for JSON – seriously? That’s probably the easiest to parse human-readable structured data format there is!
I see Programmer humor lemmy is continuing the fine r/programmerhumor tradition of non programmers posting vaguely technology related memes that have dick all to do with programming
Some data formats are easy for humans to read but difficult for computers to efficiently parse. Others, like packed binary data, are dead simple for computers to parse but borderline impossible for a human to read.
XML bucks this trend and bravely proves that data formats do not have to be one or the other by somehow managing to be bad at both.
yunno, on second thought, maybe i don’t want to be using a social platform where communism is expressly the default stance
always nice seeing a fellow Bill Wurtz fan
woman with vaccine microchip coming in for a software update
They even lampshade that in Sonic Generations.
Modern Eggman: “You’re not in a position to demand anything, you nasty little pincushion!”
Modern Tails: “Eggman! How?”
Classic Eggman: “He had a little help.”

Classic Eggman: “Oh, nobody calls me that anymore.”

“Please, don’t call me by my name. I will exclusively be referred to by a rude nickname given to me by my mortal enemy. I talked to the future version of myself and we both agree it’s the way better name.” ???
Fun fact: Python is not named after an animal! It’s named after the comedy group Monty Python’s Flying Circus.
especially since canonically (in SA1) Sonic started calling him that to make fun of him and he just went with it. on the one hand props for just saying to the haters “you have no power here”, but at the same time like… breh?
Which is a bit surprising since that’s kind of hard to do.
i have a hard enough time finding places on lemmy that aren’t that
arguments are wasted on these people
Where are the fans on this thing? Please do not tell me you intend to passively cool a chip you intend to run Cyberpunk 2077 on?
Did we learn nothing from Intel era Apple? Sure, AMD chips run moderately cooler than Intel ones under the same workload, but still…
I like the idea of a plug-and-play emulation station in a retro-styled case, but that case design is copyright infringement territory. Emulation devices are on shaky enough legal ground as it is, we do not need to tempt fate
do you think the US president has control over whether or not a ceasefire happens on the other side of the planet
I’d heard “everyone who disagrees with me is a bot” before, but I gotta say, “everyone who disagrees with me is an agent of the US federal government” is a new one.
