Not really a language you would write in but WebAssembly. I have this dream of a single WASM runtime environment across web, desktop, mobile with devs writing apps once, compiling them down to WASM, distributing them over the Internet, and users running them on any platform they like.

VSCode with Go language support: removes unused variable on save “Fixed that compilation bug for ya, boss”

“Hi team, customers observing BigCannon is missing enemy about 90% of time since latest update. Red faction reported issue 4pm ET today and opposing Blue faction was able to re-pro. Can we get all hands on deck to deep dive and push a fix by midnight so both sides can start reliably shooting at each other again before tomorrow morning? Thanks”

I liked being 16. Mature enough to design grand plans. Naive enough to actually try them.

Plus the greatest adversary I face for the rest of my life would just be standardized testing :P

This is literally how this all started for us lol. Senior wanted to try to migrate everything to Kotlin in our project. Migration never finished. Now one of our major repos is just half Kotlin half Java. Devs on our team learn Kotlin by unexpectedly encountering it when they need to touch that code.

I hope not. I’m pretty sure me and my coworkers would be at each others’ throats if it were not for some form of typed JS holding our Frankenstein codebase together.

The folks over at !lightnovels@ani.social have been weighing books all day which has been fun :P

I remember I clicked into one of his videos from the homepage out of sheer curiosity and ended up getting super distracted trying to solve the take-home exercise at the end

“Dr. Prof. Mann, I really didn’t understand anything about UNIX on that last midterm. Can we go over how to touch and finger after class?”

It’s obviously:

Traceback (most recent call last): File “./main.py”, line 2, in <module> AttributeError: ‘str’ object has no attribute ‘length’

In no particular order:

• VR arcades
• Laser tag
• Art exhibitions

Building and running a multiplayer game on one might be cool. Websocket is nice for making simpler real-time games for the browser. Godot also has multiplayer networking support but I’ve never tried it before.

You do have to open up the Pi to the public Internet though to get any people to play. I use Tailscale Funnel but there are probably also other tunneling solutions

Not the red ones but I like yellow dragon fruit

Lurked on reddit for years before quitting altogether bc the mobile app was hostile and web was basically gated off. Then was exclusively read-only on Hacker News and Lobsters for a while until I realized I didn’t want to think about only tech all day and now I am here.

I think the nice thing about Lemmy for me is the size. It feels active enough that it’s not dead but not so big that I feel compelled to just stand and watch on the sidelines.

Our flags are dynamic. Service basically reads them from an env var at runtime to determine if requests go through.

Security, at my place at least, has been very conservative about not launching stuff into prod until they’ve pentested in our test stage which has kinda forced us to do waterfall :|

Yeah we have a test stage where everything is mixed together. It’s just that we directly promote that test stage to prod so we can’t really separate all the features back out for prod without cherry-picking. The other idea we came up with was just letting test flow to prod and locking WIP stuff behind feature flags. I don’t think the security people would like that idea very much though…

I’m the dev that got assigned to be the release manager lol

The project I’m on also requires deliverables from other teams that are not under my manager’s control so no idea how coordination is gonna go
