The word you’re looking for is recursion (see recursion).

You’re paid in exposure.

Single responsibility. I deplore my backend developers who think that just because you’re mauling a single (Java) stream for an extended operation, it’s ok to write a single wall-of-text, 5 lines long, 160 characters wide. Use fucking line breaks, for fuck’s sake!

Has Github been down this often before Microsoft took over?

JSON parsers need to get their shit together. I’ve had errors for trailing commas and comments in JSON way too often.

When you add TypeScript on top and with EcmaScript finally caving in to classism, and with all the new shiny APIs (fetch, Temporal, Set and the like), I really don’t get the hate for JavaScript anymore.

Especially TypeScript’s type system is so awesome that I’ve found my self cursing at Java for not doing types well enough.

For every department, IT knows of a canary. If that person of … questionable mental ability … finds their way around the new systems, everyone else will, too.

I think experience’s and common sense’s lines should be switched. Otherwise, great.

At first I thought you missed the -r. Then I checked. Defaulting to STDIN here is very, very dumb, IMHO. Almost as bad as putting the “edit” flag right next to the “delete everything without confirmation” flag on a Western keyboard (-e vs -r).

This only works if the cancel button looks like a specialized button. If it doesn’t (for instance, if it looks like the usual “×” symbol), you’re in for a lot of style overrides.

Oh, and guess what: Your suggestion is exactly what bootstrap does. .btn.primary is for the default action, .btn.secondary I usually use for aborting and going back, .btn.danger shows that bad things will happen. The only difference is that if doesn’t force its default styles on all plain <button> elements that might be present on the page.

Not every button should have the usual button-y style. A close button, for instance, might be displayed differently. Or a play button layered on top of a video.

A use case I find perfectly valid are <label class="btn">s for checkboxes and radios with huge-ass hit areas.

WTF‽ I’m a web dev for 5 years, 8 if you count university, and I’ve never heard about bookmarklets. Why would that even begin to work?

Man, this is so amazing!

If you count the programming language you use as ‘platform’, then yes. Python rounds both 11.5 and 12.5 to 12.

Are you typing the whole filename by hand? Tab expansion exists, you know?

As if the goddamn support knew their asses from their asserts.

It’s the first time I’ve seen it. Are we supposed to memorize the specific length of each hashing function now?

This has literally nothing to do with Ubuntu.
