Lisp: these are the fine artifacts of old. sometimes when you are not looking it creeps in to your life. but, sometimes, it's just clojure.
Lua: i'm not actually supposed to be here but someone decided to build a small universe entirely out of paperclips and it works somehow
Erlang: have they found out i run the internet yet
Rust: :blobcrab: rewrite it in rust! then die waiting for it to compile
C/C++: :blobcatdevil: why yes, we did find out how to transceive satan directly in computer form [crashes]

2.5 years ago I took yet another shot at learning programming for games, so I can develop my goofy ideas without bothering anyone. It was fun at times, but largely frustrating, as I kept hitting walls I couldn't climb.

I tried finishing something simple; I tried porting/demaking; I tried reworking an existing codebase—but I never *finished* a single game.

This year, I'm "giving up" in what I think is the right way: pairing up with programmers once again. That has worked for me in the past!

Hey @pixelherodev,

Do you have a recommended C Programming book?
I've learned the very basics, but I'd like a proper intro to it. I'd love to be able to understand FOSS code well.

Normal people: spend a day doing something manually once
Developers: spend a few weeks automating something they do once

“People who have to wake up by a certain time no matter how much sleep they get or what their natural sleep cycle is are tired,” wow

Yeah, that #WarOnChristmas sure is brutal, ain't it?

The intelligence community was filled with Sun and Alpha and Sparc workstations, well into the early days of the 21st Century. They were virtually fetish objects.

FOR THE LAST FERSTINKIN' TIME! SAYING THAT YOU HAVE PRIVILEGE DOES NOT MEAN YOU SHOULD FEEL GUILTY, IT MEANS YOU SHOULD ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SOCIETY IS UNJUST IN WAYS THAT FAVOR YOU AND THAT YOU HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO FIGHT FOR IT TO BE JUST FOR EVERYBODY

GROW UP AND GET TO WORK

A colleague and I were bouncing an idea of having an internal company online #radio station that anyone can volunteer to DJ at any time or as people are showing up for company meetings (All-Hands, AMAs).

Everything I’ve seen out there is for public radio stations, and nothing FOSS. Was wondering if anyone on #mastodon has done or seen anything like this?

Hey, remember when we learned that a right-wing terrorist network extensively planned a violent coup to overthrow the German government and constitution and establish a reactionary, ethnic nationalist, authoritarian monarchy with them as its leaders, and this network included members of the German judiciary, the police, one of its major political parties, the army, and many members of the bourgeois (and formerly royal) societal elite? That was earlier this week.

And now my self-hosted instance works completely!
Thanks to the @dev's fast response to my issue!

I might end up moving to my self hosted instance. So stay tuned lol
