  • Dunno, I picked python as my language for personal projects because it has type hinting now and jobs I was looking at wanted it. I’d like to use C# but I need to find a good IDE on Linux.

    I’ve gotten pretty good at C because it’s what my company uses but god damn I am tired of fixing memory errors from bad programming. Nobody uses best practices and it’s horrid. Best practices came about to avoid issues. Use them. Please. I don’t want to be the guy to answer “please fix my memory issues” tasks. If you don’t know what you’re doing, please choose a different god damn language.

    I’ve only gotten this way because I’ve tried to read the fucking manual. Stop telling me I’m wrong when you don’t know how it works. Stop telling me I’m wrong when you don’t check for errors. I’m telling you this not because I want to talk. I’m telling you because I learned the hard way fixing your code and I don’t want to do it anymore.


  • It’s not just about the bubbles - it’s about having congruent feature sets. When the Android phone joins the group message, the experience is notably different.

    The other thing that drove me to iPhone over Android is that the experience is largely consistent. You can tell people what to do from a far based on OS version and phone model because there are so few models. It’s really hard to ask your elderly parent which phone and is this or that feature available remotely. You never know which manufacturer removed what feature

    In iOS? Go here. Do this. Do that. Done
