You need to make the weekend a thing. Maybe I’m too European, but when I’m not on call, my workphone is off.

Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursdays those are release day for me.

Or - just a thought - don’t deploy on fridays.

This is something that can easily get refactored, because the purpose of alia the variables is right there in the name. This is way better that spending three days to try to figure out what the purpose of var1 is.

It could be about sending a message.

A missing knob is easy to fix. Bolting a wrench to the housing holding the knob in place is very explicit. It screams “don’t touch”

Speaking as a German and a software developer: just because you can, does not mean you should.

Sometimes it is easier and better to not stuff words together and give readers a bad time than to write “Schiffsschraubeneichungsvorgabenverordnungsüberwacher”.

Exactly type rm -rf / instead of rm -rf ./ and you ducked up. Well you messed up a long time ago by having privileges to delete everything, but then again, you are human, some mistakes will be made.

That there is the joke. The joke is that there. Look there is the joke!

I have learned, that in those circumstances a simple “wow this is a long text, I don’t have the time right now to give it the proper thought. Let me get back to you when things calm down”

Or simply, “sorry busy right now, let me get back to you later”

This way, you acknowledge the message but also give yourself breathing room.

If you still like Minecraft, you can go back to a version you are interested in. Many people are still playing beta 1.7.3. Maybe try the “Better than adventure” mod.

Also have a look at vintage story.

Vintage Story is a very cool game, but I wish it was more chilled, I’m always kinda stressed because my character is starving.

New versions of java have a null coalescing operator?

I didn’t know that.

Edit: a short search didn’t return any answers, as far as I can see java doesn’t have this operator, the closest thing is the ternary if operator.

Yes, it’s very useful when applied correctly.

I’m always disappointed when I remember, that I can’t use such a feature, because I’m stuck using Java.

There’s a comment for you to explain the why.

Rule of thumb: code explains the how and what, comments explain the why.

He was very mad.

Good

Sometimes you don’t have a choice. Either park there or nowhere. Examples include, but are not limited to: designated parking spaces, or full parking lots.

But what websites can you trust these days?

YouTube? Serves up scammy bitcoin ads. Google? Places ads as “search results” Twitter?

Maybe that one website unchanged since 1998.

Or try having numbers or strings that look like they could be dates.

That would be unfortunate!

Try using Excel in another language than English. You have to hope someone, that speaks your language had exactly the same problem as you, because all the formulas get translated and Excel doesn’t recognize the English version when your language isn’t set to English.
