@bruce@darkmoon.social @bob_zim@infosec.exchange @cR0w@infosec.exchange Speaking of history, at least in bash, if you put one or more spaces before your command, that command does NOT get saved to your command history. 👻 This is sometimes useful when you have to repeatedly run a very long command and then want to do a one-time test of some variation of it without breaking your "up+enter" flow.

@dthompson given the uhh... incidents that keep happening I'm inclined to compare it to freddy fazbear's pizza

@yiningkarlli That actually makes for way cooler choreography with audio too

@lina@vt.social There is a *fuckton* of pride at stake among C (and C++) developers. "C(++) is a perfectly good language, just write your code correctly from the start and never make mistakes" is a statement I hear with almost frightening regularity. Of course that usually also correlates with said people being rather found dead than admitting they may have made bad design decisions in the past (or worse, mistakes while implementing said designs).

@gnomon This is the kind of post that makes me wish I could star it more than once -.-

@Ninji@wuffs.org if managers around the globe had some Courage™ we would have Big Fucking GIF 9000 by now

@eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place I've no idea what is going on in that image but it certainly is aesthetically pleasing.

@whitequark@social.treehouse.systems Congrats!

@clever_reports@mastodon.art Loving the color palette on this one. It really hits that feeling of a hot cup of tea that keeps you cozy in spite of the night chill that's setting in.

@crazyeddie@mastodon.social @lina@vt.social Idk, the person I hear it most from is very much a C++Next fanboy. The usual reactions to any complaints about the language are "ah but C++25/30/40 will address that" and that failing again "skill issue, shoulda used $feature". My biggest problem with C++ is that nothing really pushed people towards the modern helper features so all the old style code remains mainstream.

@pinskia@hachyderm.io @crazyeddie@mastodon.social @lina@vt.social The difference is that in Rust the compiler bugs you to actually adopt the latest best practices with varying degrees of insistence and helpfulness, while in C++ you can go for 20 years without ever even hearing about them. And if you do hear about them chances are that at least one of the developers of the code base is an old curmudgeon who doesn't like the syntax for new features and so you are stuck with (a subset of) C++98.

@kde@floss.social It could really use a link back to the index page at the top though -- at least in my small browser window I didn't spot one.

@FeloniousPunk Road 96 comes to mind

@baralheia @whitequark I believe all of these apply to combat dolls too

@woe2you @lina *looks them up on bandcamp* *nothing but midjourney slop cover images since 2021* mayyybe not the ideal artist for this thread, despite the name of the track

@kde@floss.social TIL about the "for" page, that's a great starting point to point new people at!

@kde@floss.social Yep, was the first thing I looked for after seeing the creatives page: "surely there must be a similar page for other types too"

@0xabad1dea@infosec.exchange Loads a lot faster than the old site too, nice!
