It's the Modern Biedermeier, where the entire populace withdraws to their home and hides there. But there is little company in their home. Often, they're even the only person in their home. And they don't answer the phone. They don't go online.

They are just... away... to no place.

Hiding from the flood of information.

Hiding from the enormity of the burdens they carry.

Hiding from other people, as other people are just _more work_.

And work now carries a stigma. Why are you working? Nobody even really pays you. Stay home. Join us.

We are all touching grass. We are one with the grass. We will go under the grass.

Oh, just test automation stuff, in Python. I've been avoiding Python.

Cherry picking bible verses like this is usually extremely frowned upon in Catholicism and way more common with the sola scriptura crowd tbh but also these verses aren’t really stacking up to what you’re trying to say. Especially the baptism and confession ones. You’re leaning really far into Pelagianism. You can’t freewill your way through a checklist of sacraments as a way of buying salvation. Sorry. That’s genuinely a heresy in Catholicism, orthodoxy, and mainline Protestantism

You are cherry picking verses and it’s very jarring when self identified Catholics do that because it’s so frowned upon in Roman Catholicism to do that. Like really really detested within Catholicism.

No one said they are necessary for salvation. Is that what you think a sacrament is? Something necessary for salvation? What makes you think that? Having a salvation checklist type of thing is largely a prot belief

When you wake up and decide to create a sw project in a different language and you know you'll have to setup the environment and figure out where to start from, and you find that totally annoying, so you blow off steam for a few hours with some shitposting, instead, and then you look at the clock and it's like,

Time, what a bitch you are.

You hate Arabs. What’s wrong with hating Jews in this case? Why are you a hypocrite?

I live in Austin, a Blue city in a Red state. The neighborhood seems to be a mix. It's no surprise our Lesbian neighbors have a Harris sign, but there are also a number of older folk and Hispanic folk about. Not sure how many of them will vote. I don't see any Trump signs around.

All of my personal friends seem to lean Red, but they aren't all especially vocal about it, nor are they the type to put up campaign signs in their yards.

A bitcoiner that saves in farms?

I’ve been thinking about this all wrong. 😂

I’m a farmer who saves in bitcoin. 1 out of 2 ain’t bad.

Yeah, I'm just saying. There aren't that many active ones, so you can have an npub with a few hundred followers and the replies are as lively, as with a few thousand.

It's "only" reactions and zaps that go down, and that only for the really gigantic npubs. I wasn't getting many of those, to begin with.

One thing I've learned in life is that if there's a grandma or a grandpa in the back of whatever restaurant you are in, you are in for a serious fucking treat.

I'm pretty OK at ping pong and enjoy badminton. 😅

I understand staying away from monotonous activities. But... That's much of my work, so, I'm used to it.

what has programming got to do with your social life exactly?

how does this in any way have anything to do with the best choice for writing simulators for a mathematician who is not greatly experienced with programming?

most mathematicians and similar pick python because of its simplicity

Go is simple also, but if you are doing large graph calculations like WoT then it's also 10x faster

safety has nothing to do with his question, nor does your social standing with your hipster mates

"safer"

what is safer about a language that has macros and the ability to tamper with memory directly versus another that has a lot of obstacles to doing this kind of tampering?

the only difference in memory safety between the two languages is you can get a performance problem in Go if you just fling out a bazillion new buffers for no reason, use them once and then forget about them... and then you need to consider a freelist

there is no buffer overflow vulnerability in valid code in either language

i tell you what the safety problem with rust is

the protocol has to be designed to be secure, most vulns these days are protocol level not buffer overflow

so, Rust is fixing a problem from 20 years ago with an overly complex syntax that really is just hints for a really dumb GC, and go has a sophisticated, 15 year old GC that builds upon its own experience and that of Java's GCs and other GC using languages

this "safety" thing is illusory

what's unsafe is hard to read code, and complex syntax and the red flag is that it takes 100 times longer to compile it
