Well technically C, C++, JS and Python and C# are all more than 25 years old, despite having changed a lot they are still the same languages at core. Of course I would hardly call them underrated.

I imagine the guy being 3000IQ and wanted to leave, so he pretended to be scammed to be fired without quitting and divided the 5000$ with his pal
When I was very young (probably too much to be on the internet) I got onw of those viruses that lock your pc and ask for a payment because the pc is seized by the authority or some shit. Of course I believed it so I mustered the courage to tell my parent. Was very relieved when they told me it was a scam and 3 seconds of googling tols me how to remove the virus (it was just an autostart program).
When I changed electricity operator I got called telling from the operator I switched to and gave my bank coordinates to change the contract. Took a while to figure out maybe it was not them. How they found out I just switched to that particular operator they were impersonating is outiside of my understanding.
My grandma got a call saying it was “one of her child” she made the mistake to tell them the name of her child so they pretended to be one. She might have been old, but she was smart enough to hung up and call my uncle and of course he had no accident, but coincidentallt it was the only day in the week he was not with her. Did they know? Who knows
As a casual js user (I build some static sites for fun and personal use), I am under the impression that JavaScript “sucks” mostly because some things really make it look like JavaScript was invented as a quick scripting tool rather than the backbone of the WWW.
I’ll bring an example that maybe helps me learning someting. Why in javasctipt “1” == 1? I know the === operator exists, but why isn’t the default behaviour the safer one? Especially when the mantra is “don’t trust the user”.
Like, I get, I am a strongly-typed guy, but I see why weakly-type languges exists, but this feel frankly moronic, and all the answers I’ve seen are " because that’s how it is". That’s just copium.
Also when I tried to compile a single Cordova app to play around I needed some 5GB of npm modules that totalled ~200k files! Is that how modern app development is like?
Also, the particular webpage OP linked might be a little extreme, but modern software does suck ass, and is not user-friendly nor efficient. Just look at mobile communication apps, like Teams. The user experience is terrible, the UI is unrespive, the battery drain is crazy and it takes 800MB of space. Is this because it’s an electron app, or because it’s made by incompetent programmers? I don’t know, but we made incredible hardware improvements in personal computing, new software should be even more efficient and use them better, not get more and more bloaty to have the same experience on older and newer hardware
Death is not unexpected on whether it will happen, but when. Everyone dies, but you might be going to work one day and you die because of a moron burning a red light, or you might ne the healthiest person and get an incurable cancer, or people die from random hearth attack.
That’s not true, “retarded” (from the latin term for delay) was intially used as a medical term to someone with lower cognitive abilities, not an insult per se. but like other similar terms (such as “cretin”) it was eventually used more as an insult, until it was considered offensive by most and only the offensive meaning remained in the common speech.
That is a very healthy way to look up to it, good luck!
Not really a series, but who could forget great classic movies such as:
WHO KILLED CAPTAIN ALEX - Uganda’s first action movie and TEEBATUSASULA
Because web browsers are stupidly complicated and expensive to maintain. The only real competitor is google who has infinite money to maintain the chrome superiority and you need resources to maintain safety, fix bugs, and adhere to new standards, which get every time more complex (also thanks to google that doesn’t want competitor). You need a lot of budget for that.
I read millions of “monkey” instead of “money” and was trying to understand if you were insulting browser developers or implying that thousands monkeys could to do the same work as a developer
Sometimes I do, when I have particularly funny and enjoyable conversation with my friends, or ones with my SO that become important for our relationship, but I find myself doing it less and less, don’t really know why.
I understand how you feel. The first step to reduce the frustration is to try and give it less importance: as you said yourself, it’s not falling in love, it’s just infatuation. Your brain is confusing attractiveness to another person (physical or romantic) for a deep connection that doesn’t come at first sight (despite what movies and tv would make you believe) but develops in time.
You will be attracted to a lot of people in your life (assuming you’re not aromantic or asexual) and, with time, you’ll realize if you went deeper in many of these situation, the attraction would disappear, because the shallow opinion you have of a person you are not dating is very difficult to get right, and usually filtered positively by your monkey brain that just wants to formicate.
Of course trying and deepening these attractions would help you realizing this, which might not be easy if you have difficult approaching other people, but try and reflect on similar situations in the past and think about them cold-hearted: to how many people are you still infatuated? Don’t you see now the “bad things” that you brain was hiding and that don’t make you two really compatible?
Eventually it just becomes a nuisance. I don’t know if you can change it, but you can accept it and it will bother you less if you understand the mechanism behind it.
Maybe you just feel affection-starved and in these situations it’s easy to attach to ideas of relationships rather than real ones. Nothing weird of course, everybody do it is some way or another. It’s a combination of social brain and (according to your comnents) low self-esteem.
Of course these are my 2 cents according to personal experience, a therapist would you help you more with that.
Not saying any of these would cause WW3, but remeber that, depending on who you ask, WW2 started:
there is no single point of start for a war, just many actions of variable intensity that escalate
Hdd can live a long and happy life, but absolutely don’t trust a single drive ever, independently of how rugged, old or expensive it is.
My main hard drive lasted 5 years with 1 year of power on hours, working fine and suddenly failed. It was a good fail because I was able to get all the data from it, but it took almost one month for how slow it was.
Always assume your data storage is going to die tomorrow and be ready to replace it.
I know they are being used to, and are decently good for, extracting a single infornation from a big document (like a datasheet). Considering you can easily confirm the information is correct, it’s quite a nice use case
Take off your tinfoil hat man. The entire us healthcare system is the profitable cancer, not the illnesses
Agree. I use NewPipe and csn easily open YouTube linkscin my instance, but cannot if they are posted on random instance. I would have to manually copy the video code, which I definitely won’t do.
When it comes to sexual attraction, no part of the body is excluded. To most straight males (and gay women I guess) feminine shapes are usually atttactive, that can include boobs, hips, noses, hair, ankles. Are female ankles different from male ankles? Difficilt to tell, but a feminine ankle will be probably attractive to someone attracted to women.
The whole cultural thing is absolutelt present, but not in the fundamental attraction for female (or male) appearance
“Steadily being replaced” is another hyperbole. Sure as general purpose languages they might be used less, but where they really shine (low level and embedded programming) they are not going anywhere anytime soon. Sure rust is taking more momentum but it will take decaded before it will be used more, if it ever will be
