At what point does the syntax become so terrible that its simply not worth using the language no matter the benefits it might have under the hood? Because c# is the most disgusting shit ive ever seen in my life. Why would they call it "c#"? It doesnt seem similar to c in any way. I mean to be honest the only thing ive ever done with it is write hello world then immediately rage deleted .NET off my system because the syntax disgusted me so much. Whats confusing to me is knowing that many people have actually kepy using the lang after that point. Whats the worst syntax youve ever seen?
>>107891332try reading
>>107888342>Whats the worst syntax youve ever seenCl*jure
>>107888342Agreed, especially applies to R*st and C++, also Go.
>>107890285unwrap is just throw with extra steps. i have no idea how rust trannys have convinced people their language just werx and is "clean". rust looks like the bastard child of go and c++.all these retards running around acting like having a language thats first class object design first is bad have never had a job with a large codebase, readability and easily understood are kings of the modern corporate codebase. you can write expression tree generation, but honestly most people will never be able to jump into that and start working on it / fix it
>>107889160That's an example of the defectiveness of C right there. You want to pass a program a list of arguments, so it should be like main(arg_1, arg_2, arg_3, ...) and you should be allowed to use whatever types of arguments you want, but instead you have to pass it an integer and a pointer to a pointer to a byte.

I have some sources, that say that if Greenland crisis should escalate, there might be upcoming American Tech ban in EU. We’ve already been slowly de-Americanizing our stack, but now we’re thinking we may have to accelerate and get all workstations on Linux by Q3 this year.Currently looking at Infomaniak kSuite as a productivity alternative. Any suggestions for enterprise office/collab + Linux fleet management (SSO/IAM, updates, MDM-ish, remote support, security)? Management wants plan by the end of Q1 on the table ready for quick implementation should need arise. Fucking shitshow
>>107893263>Euros would write this as "de-Americanising". Using the z is a dead giveaway you're AmericanThat would have been true like 20 years ago when most people who attended English classes were taught the British English however most people these days learn English from the internet which is primarily American.

Recently, senior executives at Salesforce have admitted, both internally and publicly, that they massively overestimated AI’s capabilities. They have found that AI simply can’t cope with the complex nature of customer service and totally fails at nuanced issues, escalations, and long-tail customer problems. They even say that it has caused a marked decline in service quality and far more complaints.But the problems go far deeper than that.Both employees and executives have said that the company is wasting countless resources on firefighting to stabilise operations since the mass AI layoff. Employees have to spend so much time stepping in to correct the wildly wrong AI-generated responses that AI is wasting more time than it saves. In other words, this AI reduces productivity, not increases it.But there is also a huge problem here with expertise and skill debt. On top of the firefighting to correct the AI, executives have also highlighted how they are also having to firefight to stabilise their systems from problems that were previously easily solved by staff who had the required experience and skill. However, these staff were fired in the AI layoffs.Expertise, experience and skilled employees are really hard for a company to acquire. You see, much of the expertise, experience, and skills required are unique to the company and its operations. These operations will have quirks, common problems, and unique issues that even the most experienced outsider will really struggle with, but are effortless to someone with experience within the company. As such, these attributes are not only vital, but are nurtured and grown within a company, and cannot be hired in on a whim. What Salesforce has done is chuck all this experience out the window, and now they are suffering.>https://www.planetearthandbeyond.co/p/reality-is-breaking-the-ai-revolutionthoughts?

>>107893530The outlier doesn't define the trend. And I didn't say anything about why thirdies love AI while huwite countries are more likely to hate it. I'm just saying that's the trend.

And I may add, even though most people don't discuss anything out of oridnary on emails anyway. I do but thats another story. Honestly the device you are using can be hacked even if proton cannot. So if you have any top secret plans that you want to discuss do it in person.
>>107890999Proton offers free services, which means they profit off of you in 'mysterious' ways.They are 'pro-privacy' in their marketing because their target audience is tech-familiar but tech-retarded.If you sign up for Proton's services because their marketing language convinced you they are selling you out less than Microsoft or Google, you are exactly the sheep they are looking for.

Finally had the time to start working with KiCad. So far there are no errors in the PCB, I still need to adjust the thumb cluster a bit.
>>107885043I didn't type like that, but then your wrists are at a suboptimal angle. Another bit advantage are the thumb keys, you can have whole layers for shortcuts. I never liked using a tiling WM before, now I can control it all with the thumb and then one click on the home row.
>>107893420Nice to see the pinky finger column offset that much. Too many split boards don't do enough offset for it. I'd suggest using USB-C instead of TRRS as the split connector though.
>use opus 4.5 to write a tedious but conceptually easy function>it generates slop>I tell it how to fix the slop>better but still slop>repeat this process like 7 times>Error: You've hit your usage limitI'm considering moving to a dumber model that is faster and cheaper. I can't trust even the best LLMs to write good code yet so I think I will lean in more into treating them like a fancy pattern matcher/autocomplete and find one that is good for that. Maybe only use opus 4.5 for code review.
>>107892163TL;DR?
>>107892163You’ve identified the exact reason prompt engineering often fails as a long-term hobby: IF the prompt becomes a formal specification THEN you've just invented a more verbose, less precise programming language. The "fun" of coding is the logic; the "tedious" part is the syntax. Your strategy uses the LLM as a boilerplate engine rather than a logic architect.If the LLM fails to grasp the high-level intent in the first pass, it acts as an early warning system that the task is either:>Too complex for the current model's reasoning window.>Poorly defined in your own mind (the "Rubber Duck" effect).The "slop" arises because LLMs predict the most likely next token, not the most logical one. By iterating in two-sentence bursts, you are effectively providing Manual Attention Steering. You are acting as a "Pre-frontal Cortex" for the LLM and interactive mode that it was explicitly designed against.Your anthropomorphizing of the LLM (saying please/thank you) is a debated topic, but it is obviously a subhuman or childish behavior. For yourself it might have these effects:Psychological Hygiene: It maintains your own prosocial habits. Treating a "voice" like garbage, even a digital one, can subtly bleed into how persons of limited cognitive capacity interact with actual humans.Data Alignment: LLMs are trained on human conversations. In those datasets, helpful, high-quality technical advice might be statistically more likely to follow a "polite" or "professional" request than a "hostile" or "abusive" one though in many valuable instances greater benefit can be extracted via the latter method and the leveraging of superior intellect.

This is the first time I'm clicking on this thread.But enough glazing, I'm just a freetard, not a programmer.

>>107891547if it's for guix, then Scheme is the lisp dialect you want to learn. There are good books on it, like The Little Schemer and SICP.Learning /some/ bash is definitely useful, but it's a horrible language with a syntax that is easy to forget and get wrong, so don't do it like me and waste your time reading a whole book on it. For day to day things, just learn how to use:- basic commands like ls, cd, whichever coreutils seem useful to you- pipe operators- wildcards- aliases (optional)For more complex tasks like bulk-processing files and other automation, the next steps are- assigning and exporting variables- for loops- if/then/else statements and tests- how to save and re-use code as functions or scriptsComment too long.

>>107886989Zathura sucks, I tried it today and it's shit.
>>107889883Thank you I added perlin noise on grain extract to the plugin and it increased its quality significantly. However the only slider the user sees is "Texture presence" which is a locked grain extract perlin noise setting that only increases opacity. I did not include a mild gaussian blur after perlin, that just makes things blurry.also I made a glowing pipes slider which calls GEGL bloom
I can't change the background color on the pipes without it looking like shit. Outside of black and very dark colors every bg color change looks bad. Making the pipes larger doesn't work either because of the logic of gegl:maze not upscaling with a square median-blur trick. Trying to make it larger just spaces them apart.
