'Bout a hundred grains of rice.

Lodash provides modular methods for working with arrays, objects, strings, and more.

I dunno. If it makes everything Array-like act like a goddamn Array, I’m tempted to start using it.

‘What do you mean you can’t .map a Set? It’s iterable! Figure it out!’

The slightly goofy Francis Ford Coppola adaptation both includes it and solves it. Van Helsing throws a bowl of grains into the air and Dracula names the total before they hit the ground.

“Canonically.”

And this was pretty funny in The X-Files, when Mulder spilled sunflower seeds. The vampire drops to the floor and starts counting, spitting at him, “You dick!”

The thing you want from jQuery was added to all browsers in 2018.

Or ship a browser to run a script.

Jail the victims! Fucking brilliant!

Fuck out.

Honestly I hate how much I hold back, now. Too many communities fell for the cult of civility and think “here’s detailed proof that you’re a fucking liar” is worse behavior than “calm down, honey.” Sometimes it is right and good to call people names. Punishing that, but not even addressing why someone might do that, is acting as a force multiplier for trolls. You can be an absolute monster in polite words.

To all moderators, on all platforms, I ask - if you don’t stop people from being assholes, but you stop people from calling them assholes, who do you think benefits from that power structure?

It’s a mantra about teaching people and then expecting them to forget it. Doesn’t work. They’ll default to what they already know.

My freshman English teacher got married in October and I called her by her maiden name the entire year.

Like all programming mantras, it’s not universally true, but it’s annoyingly reliable. It reflects the shape of the human brain.

Elon Musk is African-American.

First learning is last learning.

Same reason we still do console.log("FUCK").

I still agree with most of what I’ve ever written online.

So either I was never a stupid asshole, or I’m still a stupid asshole.

Forums and blogs were not what people mean by “social media.” Lemmy is an evolution of forums.

Jason Scott: “You might not have a Facebook account, but Facebook has a you account.”

Nazis getting popular doesn’t make stopping them less necessary.

“How can NSA–?” is a question.

“How NSA can–” is a statement.

For Javascript it’s () => { }. Lamba functions! Because at least it’s more readable than Perl.

Reading a tab as however many spaces is trivial, and the point of tabs.

Reading however many spaces as a tab is a gross hack that has to be dialed-in for whatever standard the document chose.

Just use tabs in the first place. God damn. That’s what they’re for.

That sounds like tabs with extra steps.

Tabs, not spaces.

I don’t give a shit if your arguments perfectly align to the function. It’s only semantic indication. Use the goddamn special character that has its own dedicated key.
