@sunchaser @sarahquartz Дебил хорош!
Дохлый дед — IRC, такой, с запашком уже. Jabber — это ещё не дохлый, но песок уже сыпется так, что нужно самосвалами вывозить 🤣

@amiloradovsky Ha-ha-ha, perfect description for something human-readable, not human-writable!
@gemlog

@gemlog They are really good for things below certain level of complexity beyond which they become a mess. They are perfect when you read them, way less so when you write them.
Complex Docker container descriptions is where they truly "shine". I wouldn't even touch those without editor that highlights wrong indentation in bright red.
@amiloradovsky

@gemlog
It was designed by people who are into C++ and JS so you might see where those came from 😉
They aren't as bad as YAML, but that is a very low bar too 🤣
@amiloradovsky

@amiloradovsky Well, yes, it's explicit about memory management. That was one of the main goals behind its creation — to eliminate RAM leaks, ill fame of Firefox at the time. And it came out very nice — way better than C++ they were using, some say that's a very low bar, but they still got the tool they wanted — a language similar to C++, sans the syntax, that is reasonably low level, but suitable for large desktop applications and with memory safety.
Toml-files are yuck though!

@yukiame "Transition period" is the best time: you have the income of an adult, but expenses on day-to-day things aren't even close. And it might seem like it's going to remain that way for the rest of you life 😅

@jeff Yeah, most probably true. And they never went with Germany's odd ideas of phasing them out, which made zero sense from carbon footprint perspective, but made a lot from the infamous relying on cheap gas one 🤭

@KiffinEileen This version is better than the Drake one I have. Saved!

@jeff Same for Russia. Everyone still gives in to the nuke scares, but I doubt there are any in working order. Cool looking launchers shown at parades carry dummies of course, but the rest is probably just as good — decomposing into rust in the flooded silos. Maintaining this shit costs bazillions, I'd be very much surprised if not every dime gets stolen, no one even sees this stuff. Tactical ones might be in order, but that's nothing to brag about, I bet China has more of those anyway.

@gemlog Zig looks like a nice language, but Rust doesn't look hard to learn either — true, some things are done differently, memory management in particular — not what everyone's used to, but to me it at least makes sense, unlike how it's done in GC languages. Some textbooks Go examples make me wonder why this memory is usable at all at this point? 🤪
I don't like everything about Rust, but I think a lot of problems come from how people expect languages and compilers to work.
@amiloradovsky

@ipg Is it somehow related to Zstandard compression?

@jeff Close, but not quite 😏
I guess I'm not even in the league, no NJ for me today.

@jeff I'm fine with NJ, still better than a certain nuclear superpower 😂

An insightful comment!

Indeed, all of this is happening almost at the same time 😔

@th3rdsergeevich
Ага, про это ещё игру сделали 🤣

@neural_meduza Съездил на шашлычки называется!

Okay, so Melon Usk killed off even the GraphQL APIs of Thwarter… My Nitter instance could not retrieve access tokens since this morning, I thought it was just outdated so I rebased my patches to latest one and it still didn't work. Then I thought something's wrong with my patches, but alas: https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/issues/917
😩
Where would I get the news on what's going on in Russia now?

@urusan
O-oh, so that's what the song was about! The magic word 😆

@OutOnTheMoors Must be my lack of sleep: I come up with strange ideas and notice weird details 🤣
