How can you tell if someone uses vim? Don't worry, they'll tell you about it.

Looks really awesome, going to try it out when there's a Linux version. VSCode is great, but could use some more performant competition.

As a programmer you'll be payed less than a software engineer at other tech companies, unless you're in a big AAA gaming company. Also you're more likely to have more crunch time and worse working conditions. I switched from a well paying gaming job to backend and doubled my income in one shot. On the flip side, the gaming job was way more fun.

EU based. This last year has been brutal. Going into this round of interviews I was super confident that I would find something within a month, judging by the previous 6 years or so. I see on LinkedIn positions for seniors with 50+ applicants, other positions with 100+ applicants. Half of the applications never even answer back and the ones that do are mostly negative.

I think that the golden age for a CS career has ended and from here on it's just downhill, with a consequent erosion of working conditions for people in tech.

It's great to see the majority of workers paying for the mistakes of that big pricing fuckup that was approved by a minority of people in power. Just a normal day for capitalism, nothing to see here.

If the soy beans aren't cannibalizing themselves out of desperation it's not authentic enough

Wait, so the name was misleading? It should have been GitAndSvnHub

Not that I know of, but you you can do the tests on a separate branch with garbage commit messages and when you're ready rebase and squash onto main

This is exactly how Blender operates. A company that raises capital and provides back to the open source version, in addition to the community contributors. If they will enshittify the OSS version because of this, like Redis has been doing, remains to be seen

Does this apply to all Chromium based browsers? I would like to switch to Firefox, but the touchscreen scroll there is terrible, and that is 90% of what I do in a browser.

All problems mentioned are societal issues

Exactly. This follows Marx's theory of alienation closely. I found 3 out of 4 features described by Marx in the original article.

I really wish LinkedIn would add an anonymous cringe emoji. I would use it on like 90% of the content on that site.

Pretty cool when I need autocompletion, but it really messes with my zsh config so I won't be using it all the time

Why the fuck is a page about fonts using 50% CPU?! Is it mining crypto or something?

Also check out creative coding which is pretty similar to shaders, but has a lower entry barrier IMO

I mean, can't we just have both? On some days I want to see a silly lighthearted action movie and on some days I want to see a heart wrenching story about the deepest darkest recesses of the human mind. It's not a zero sum game.

I think that Godot GUIs are very limited compared to HTML+CSS. It's not a huge problem for videogames since screens sizes aren't going to vary as much as for a web app and you are probably going to make a lot of changes anyway when porting to something like mobile. But it would never work well for proper responsiveness on different screens.

Yes, in a good dev workflow mypy errors will not pass basic CI tests to get merged. Types are not really a problem in modern Python workflows, you can basically have a better type checker than Java out of the box (which can be improved with static analysis tools). The biggest problem with Python remains performance.

Just adding that you can also do Python - Rust interop fairly easily with something like https://github.com/PyO3/pyo3

So you can gradually adopt Rust for some of the more performance demanding parts and call them from Python. You will get a massive increase just from a simple rewrite. Though you would have the additional burden of 2 build toolchains. But as others have said, Rust is not just about the performance.
