That’s fair! Takes time to get used to. Modern editors make this easier by highlighting the current indent level, or can even make the top X lines of the current closure “stick” to the top of the editor for those really long blocks.

Correct, I linked the source of the quote. My implication is the general idea is applicable here. Is python one of these languages where it is idiomatic to nest code deeply?

The Zen of Python:

Flat is better than nested.

From the python I have seen and written, deep nesting is avoided.

Just curious, what about spaces made it hard? What language would have been easier? In curly brace languages, 99% of the time, a curly brace is followed by a line break and an indent. Python is similar except it’s typically a colon, line break, then indent.

What I have learned is: If the code is indented too deeply, it’s a code problem, not the language.

Hold down j and lmk how smooth it is 😅

I mean, it should be clear. Smooth and fast and snappy. If you don’t want that, use neovim like me :)

I use zsh and love the fish autocomplete so I use this:

Also have fzf for ctrl + r to fuzzy find previous commands.

I believe it comes with oh-my-zsh, just has to be enabled in plugins and itjustworks™

It inspired python’s syntax iirc

The only reason coders’ computers work better than non-coders’ computers is coders know computers are schizophrenic little children with auto-immune diseases and we don’t beat them when they’re bad.

Well… said?

Not only can it be bypassed, but anti cheat with kernel level access can be used to distribute malware or spyware if it is compromised. Whether your personal anecdotes reflect the actual statistics or not, these anti cheats are dangerous and are not impenetrable.

Interesting! I have built several projects entirely in TS or with react/next frontends and I enjoy the DX a lot now that I have the experience with the overwhelming breadth of options out there. It was very frustrating and overwhelming for me at first though. I found Dockerizing to help with consistency and finickiness.

Just curious, what are you missing most from asp.net core?

You guys are using typescript right? … right?

AMAZING. Bless you

cmatrix too!

It was just a question - I’m not remotely saying what you are

i did say it was “also” e2e encrypted

Not hard! Just unfamiliar that’s all. Seems weird to me having just always used iMessage here in the states, which has awful interoperability with Android devices

Interesting ty!

So before you can message anyone you have to download whatsapp? iMessage is preinstalled and is also e2e encrypted. Idk if I’d rather Facebook or Apple (who can access iCloud backups of normally otherwise encrypted data, etc.) in charge of my messaging infrastructure, honestly.

Americans with Android are left to use literal SMS which is atrocious, or a different messaging solution, probably whatsapp I guess

edit: I don’t like iMessage or the current state of messaging in the US. I feel like all the default messaging apps should be able to communicate e2e encrypted via some shared standard or something-- it’s weird to have to go third party

What do they use? Whatsapp? Wechat? Signal?
