I watched Longlegs last week and I’m STILL thinking about it. What a film.

It literally happens every Olympics and people lose their mind every time. Same with “funny shooting stance” memes.

For real, friends in discord were aghast at this, and I’m thinking “bro I’ve heard you tell your kids to shut the fuck up.”

Both. It allowed/forced me to explicitly handle edge cases I wasn’t thinking about. That means the error doesn’t happen at run time, but at compile time (or while writing!) so technically speaking the errors didn’t go away, they moved to in my face rather than “maybe in the future.”

Most of the time the remedy was to explicitly catch whatever happened and nicely explain what happened, vs looking at empty production logs because logging is turned down.

It’s certainly a preference, but for me, I’d rather argue with the compiler all day long and push a bulletproof release than quickly ship something I thought was good and be embarrassed.

Anecdotally I converted a python app to rust and suddenly had no more runtime errors. It’s utter bliss.

A university professor down here put together a website about this horrific crime. He went to great lengths collecting documents from the time.

I had to rewind three times cause I swore I kept missing something important that made that significant or something. Needless to say I was glued to the screen until the credits rolled.

Please touch grass.

Awesome update.

On iOS, after adding lemmy.ml to the homescreen as a PWA from Safari, I can't log in because the keyboard doesn't pop up when tapping the username or password fields.

I think it’s a great idea. Let there be an Ellis Island, accepting the tired, the hungry, the poor. As long as there are signs everywhere letting them know “you probably shouldn’t live the rest of your new life here, try somewhere else!”

As another pointed out, that already happens. It’s even preferable, to some. For example, I had a programming multi reddit with JavaScript and several more focused JS related subs in it. Seeing the same link or topic in multiple subs often let me get more viewpoints to consider. Outside of the web, journalism outfits all publish Associated Press articles. If you follow multiple news outlets you’ll see the same story that way as well.

To me, it’s just natural.

Really really hoping it wasn’t the dev himself. That would be so disheartening.
