English is not my first not language. When I write something down in my first language (polish), it feels more like I’m transcribing things I silently say to myself, while with english I’m actually thinking about every word I type.
The funny thing is, the better I am getting at English, making those types of mistakes is getting easier for me.
But idk, this is just my experience.
Because they learned that from hearing, not reading so that makes sense.
I already had a huge respect for him for being really pragmatic, but after this post my respect for him climbed a level above I thought wasn’t even possible.
And that’s without considering the guy basically made software that runs >99% of modern internet.
Brave behaving like Win XP era browser with gazillion toolbars installed, with a pinch of crypto and crypto promoting ads should be a giant red flag.
FOSS =/= trusted by default. Why are there so many FOSS evangelists, but such a damn tiny part of them are programmers, let alone programmers able to examine a source code behind such a giant codebase as web browser?
I use Vivaldi, at least their business model is clear, and developer is kind of trusted, and not crypto scammer and homophobe.
Not only OS - written using 3D APIs closed source available only for your OS.
Actually “natural” gets a pass from me. It doesn’t feel right just because we got used to the opposite.
Imagine a paper scroll on rolls. If you slide the top of the roll upwards - the paper goes up, and you can see more bottom content. The exact opposite happens when you scroll the mouse wheel with default config.
It is better than in most languages with exceptions, except from languages like Java, that require you to declare that certain method throws certain error.
It’s more tedious in Go, but at the end of the day it’s the same thing.
When I use someone else’s code I want to be sure if that thing can throw an error so I can decide what to do with it.
You can run some Photoshop versions on Linux, but I would just seek alternatives. I’ve been using Krita for ages. It’s not Photoshop, but it has non-destructive editing unlike GIMP.
Java used to lack many features to make the stuff you wanted it to do, so most Java programmers adapted design patterns to solve these problems.
Honestly, older versions of Java are utter garbage DX. The only reason it got so popular was because of aggressive enterprise marketing and it worked. How can a language lack such an essential feature as default parameters?
So, anyway after the great hype Java lost its marketshare, and developers were forced to learn another technologies. And of course, instead of looking for language-native way of solving problems, they just used same design patterns.
And thus MoveAdapterStrategyFactoryFactories were in places where simple lambda function would do the same thing, just not abstracted away three layers above. Obviously used once in the entire codebase.
Imo the only really good thing about Java was JVM, while it was not perfect, it actually delivered what it promised.
