Interesting - an airplane - submarine was developed in 1964 - http://1000aircraftphotos.com/Contributions/KleinBernhard/65...

Are you still in school, new to the industry, or both?

Personally I'm a fan (and user) of gitlab since GitHub's recent policies and that GitHub takes forever to implement simple things that all users would love (like free private repos)

Why watch a show in HD, legally, for $15 a month when I could get 3 latte mochiattos with shots of vanilla, then watch a crappy 360p pirate stream of a show I'm a "diehard" fan of?

First day on the internet?

Time to hit the nox.

Just never leave the house, never build anything, never do anything ever.

You can also buy a $200 dock for plugging in the Surface Pro to a monitor and it has some more USB ports.

Jesus christ this is insane.

Nothing like confusing naming/branding than having a new product called "Surface Pro" when the Surface Pro 4 was released a few year(s) ago.

> Xbox

> Xbox 360

> back to "Xbox One"

Microsoft sure has weird naming tendencies,.

Thanks, forgot about searching for file types!

> transpiles

can we get rid of this web dev made up word already?

It should be "compiles".

Is there a list of these symantec white papers to read?

One issue I encounter often-ish is that when I'm on a gitlab page then hit the back button in the browser - I get a bunch of JSON spit onto the page instead of an actual HTML document.

Whats up with that?

Bernie's loss still sting?

Ah yes Javascript becoming the RPC layer

I sure love my data types of `int` to be IEEE 754 floating point numbers!

Because they are all connected in a IoT with MongoDB, React, and Node.js

> ... a developer who would copy-and-paste code from StackOverflow into different places until the result was what he wanted -- leaving all of the other references because he didn't really understand WTF he was doing.

Too close to home

One thing I'm disliking is the amount of sites using React.

You get a crazy amount of Flash of Content and things being resized and ordered around during page load. Quite distracting tbh.

Clearly you are just another corporate Java and Microsoft drone!

TIL low level in web dev world means interacting with the file system.

Huh.

Next up is praising Javascript as the end-all-tool for everything. The hammer for all the jobs!

> tech "journalists"

ah the old cut and paste from one site's article, rearrange some words, grind it through a thesarus-izer, then repost.

I am now a #GitLabMissile

"Old enough to see, better start teaching them some C"

That has to be a troll post. No one in their sane mind would code on a phone when a keyboard is close by.

Like if you were flying or something sure I guess writing something in notepad then emailing it to yourself later...

But writing in bed? Please.

Interesting, thanks!

If you dont mind, can you give me a rough estimate for your yearly salary or so? How long have you been programming in C?

Just curious - what do you do for a living that means you have to write C?

I'm interested in really learning C or C++ more indepthly. I feel like I am very proficient in high level programming knowledge (other than design patterns).

Basically, when or if the web dev industry falls out, I want to have a good back up of knowing low-level languages.

Is this satire lol

Next up will be getting rid of "sponsored content". At least they dont eat bandwidth or server you malware. I mean they should just be images wrapped in a href to link to a "sponsored" article, instead of some javascript ad network that can serve malware
