I think that’s how themes are distributed for VSCode, right?
With VSCode, everything is an extension.
But the vscode marketplace seems to have filters for themes, so there must be some way to differentiate them.

I think extensions need a permissions system

What makes this even more sneaky is that JetBrains has a theme called “Darcula”.

So, with a wider generic theme called Dracula and themes that duplicate JetBrains Darcula theme, it is no surprise that “Darcula Official” is being installed.
It’s more than just a typosquat

Edit:
But why can a theme make web requests?!

Oh man, spoilable items? Spoilable agriculture research packs?
That’s pretty intense

Invalidating creds sent over http is a great point!

For me, after looking over the docs, it’s close enough to JavaScript that it might as well adopt more of the syntax (for example, conditionals and loops don’t use parenthesis). It also has some similarities to python, but again not enough to be python.

Feels like an in-between language that has enough similarities to seem easy, but some gotchas that will regularly catch you out.
And then some extra features like the if chaining, which doesn’t have the keyword if or switch in it. So you have to know that that structure implies an if or switch conditional.

Especially for something like bash scripting, which devs probably don’t spend as much time doing compared to python or js. So, it would probably take them longer (and break their brain more) than just scripting it in python/js directly or dealing with bash directly.

It’s an improvement over bash, and it’s nice that it transpiles to bash.
I might have to play around with it and see how it actually feels to use

I’m here on Lemmy because I liked RIF and RES.
Reddit, the proprietary platform, made those pieces of software obsolete, and not in a good way.

I’m pretty sure open source software can extend closed license, proprietary even obfuscated software. That’s the cool thing about open source.

It’s just… Whether it’s worth the effort to hang your hat on proprietary software… That bit quite a few 3rd party Reddit apps in the ass

It’s a funny read.

IMO, the bridge example is more like joining a maintenance team looking after an old bridge. I’m sure there could be good metaphors of the old guy that hammered 300 of the original rivets, and can tell an interesting story about toilet breaks 250ft in the air. And new government regulations both about bridges and conservation of protected buildings/structures that somehow clash or whatever.
Building a bridge would be more of a startup/new project.

It does feel like it takes the most esoteric circumstances, as well.
Same could be said for “Steve that has to dig a ditch” seeing competitions of plant operators doing back flips in forestry machines meant to scale mountains.

It’s just that programming is a very accessible hobby that can transition into a career (how most programmers got a career, tbh), but is also the thing that modern business/industry/entertainment all depends on.

I use jerboa and it is working (I used the toolbar to generate it, but had to fix it because my mobile keyboard is a massive PITA for any corrections and I haven’t had time to find something new).
Anyway, looks like sync and boost are not lemmy-markdown-compatible

I cannot imagine going into a stream of someone playing a game you have poured your heart and soul into for years, and hear you own voice reading stuff like that

Edit: fixing spoiler tag.

Gentle piano nicely in the background and closed-captions explaining whats going on.
Worth a watch!

Wow

I like typescript because my API can generate types for my FE project.
So, if i change my API, i pull in fresh types and fix the errors, and i get in-ide hints for the shape of payloads, responses and events. Not everything is simple CRUD.
Also, if you pull in a library, having types is a godsend

Oooh, that mid-mobo power connector

I remember a little knob on the back of a pc, taking up a PCIe slot, connected to a fan controller

Addicting, fun, loads of builds/options.
I do wish the early game was a bit more reliable. You can get stuck always playing catchup if you dont get a scoring joker in tge first couple shops

300mbps down 60 mbps up.
Although aoparently fibre-to-the-premises is available… Just havent got rounf to checking if its symmetrical or worth.

Micrometers is actually so common that it has a colloquial non-SI name of “micron”

According to wiki:

The micrometre is a common unit of measurement for wavelengths of infrared radiation as well as sizes of biological cells and bacteria,[1] and for grading wool by the diameter of the fibres.[3] The width of a single human hair ranges from approximately 20 to 200 μm.

You can say 25 micrometers

DHCP problems, huh?

If you are running through walls, run some shielded cat6a and some SM fibre.
Doesnt matter what happens to the display standards. There will always be converters to rj45 and sm fibre (whereas MM fibre is essentially dead these days).
