Doesn't matter if it works, doesn't matter if it says /* FIXME */ all over the place, doesn't matter if it includes header files that don't exist yet, as long as you're hacking out the mechanics of whatever operations you need to perform then you can figure the rest of that stuff out later. The creative urge doesn't last forever, which is why projects get abandoned, but with discipline you can keep bringing yourself back to fix all the /* FIXME */'s and the compiler errors. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═══════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────────┘ --- #10 fediverse/3351 --- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────── privacy doesn't mean anything on the internet to me because privacy on the internet doesn't mean anything to "them" gestures vaguely, maybe winks once or twice and/or presents an emphasis face ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────┘ --- #11 fediverse/1448 --- ════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────── ┌──────────────────────┐ │ CW: cursed │ └──────────────────────┘ that one option flag in the config file that you don't know what it does because the documentation intentionally doesn't explain it very well (or explains that it solves a use-case that like, nobody would ever have, and certainly you don't have) that secretly sets a flag which sends your [redacted] ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────────┘ --- #12 fediverse/6120 --- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────── ┌──────────────────────┐ │ CW: AI-mentioned │ └──────────────────────┘ it's pretty easy to read an article or blog post, copy the text into a text file, and forget about it. you never know when you might want to use your computer's memories for [entertainment during long dark nights, or for creating an AI buddy bot, depending on how things go] ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────┘ --- #13 fediverse/4900 --- ════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────── if you wanna trick systems administrators just put a bunch of sleeps in your code so your computer programs don't use up all the mainframe's resources all at once [statements dreamed up by the practically deranged] ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────┘ --- #14 fediverse/617 --- ═════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────────── So much of computing is just... handling the quirks of hardware and presenting it to the user (programmer) in a way that is sane and makes sense, instead of the arcane and [nebulous/confabulous/incomprehensible] way that physical nature demands our absurdly potentialized computational endeavors be. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧══════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────┘ --- #15 fediverse/4866 --- ════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────── don't you just love it when you get several discord notifications but you tab back to check out the discord screen and there's no red numbers anywhere?
