Famously, and in formal completion of Cunningham’s law disapproval. Cunningham has never said that, and actually disagrees with the aphorism, he’s been quoted qualifying it as a misquote and a proof of misinformation spread on the internet in complete self-defeating disprove.
There does seem to be a significant German contingent on Lemmy, as there was on Reddit. I have a very in-my-head Reddit moment I need to share.
Remember when “The Nations of the World brought to you by Yakko Warner” was a meme and people were making all kinds of permutations of it? I saw one that was like “the nations of the world if Germany won WWII” which was basically “Germany Germany Germany Germany Portugal Spain, Spain, Germany, Germany…”
On the most recent r/place I remember, the Germans had a habit of taking their tricolor flag all the way across the canvas, which made me think “Germany Germany Germany Germany” in Yakko Warner’s voice.
c/coolstorybro@sh.itjust.works or however Lemmy links work I still don’t know.
All you need to do is say “Rust” and “memory safety” a lot and join us at the crab rave.
If you ever see a news article about hacking or an exploit, or a major service go down, you just say tsk-tsk they should have used memory safe Rust, and your comment will be as informative as 80% of other comments.
When you’re done you’ll find Birkenstocks and comfortable socks on your feet, cargo shorts with more pockets than even Hermione Granger could use, a glorious grey beard to stroke, and either a Metallica or a Hawaiian shirt that’s 15 years old and has blown through the armpits.
You will have reached nirvana. You’ll be able to unlock the secrets of the universe without opening a single interactive program.
ECMAScript spec says Math.random must be less than 1. I was about to stop there, but a thought occurred to me: could the multiply with a float make a number large enough to floor to a different value for large enough values? 🤔
I imagine it’d have to be a ridiculously large number to amount enough floating point imprecision to matter, if so.
I have only been on the fediverse for a month but I’m pretty sure I could start my own software engineering company on the pc I just built (Linux OS, of course).
