And here I thought the fact that it’s spelled “Cucumber” and not “qcmbr” was the giveaway that it’s a joke.

Part of the reason that “JavaScript sucks” is BECAUSE it doesn’t have alternatives. If you want to build a WebApp that manipulates the DOM, JS has the ONLY API to do it.

For me, “JavaScript sucks” not really because of the language itself, but because there’s such a massive disconnect between what it was designed for (small amount of bells and whistles within a web page), and what the ecosystem uses it for (foundation for entire GUI applications).

If you want to build WebApps, learn JavaScript, then do all your development with TypeScript, and be VERY mindful of the third-party dependencies you pull into your project.

You know what else they’re not dreaming of? Games on Netflix.

Not really, not on its own. It can GET demanding depending on how big you go with building stuff.

I’m definitely having trouble conceptualizing what this even IS much less what one might use it for. Hyperlight is like a containerization system? It lets you host micro-VMs? And now you can use one to host a WASM app? Why on Earth would someone want to host container/VM just to run WASM code? Are we really going down the road AGAIN of taking tech made to run in browsers, and using it to make backend stuff?

Yeah, shoulda said Valve, rather than Steam.

Steam.

Fuck yeah, FightingCowboy!

It’s very much not clear, lol, I was coming here to ask. FASCINATING photo.

Thank god, we STILL use TFS at work, and its core version control model is reeeeeally fucking awful.

Perhaps the worry is that if wind rips things up, you’ve potentially got live electrical wires exposed?

I came into this thread thinking I’d just post “Uhh, it was pretty nice?”

Then I read the post text. Jesus fuck.

The other comments are probably right, no real point in doing anything but ignoring them. But goddamn, my first instinct would be to try and call them out on that bullshit attitude. No way am I clever enough to do it effectively, though.

Donald Trump will either still be President, or be dead.

He doesn’t just let us kill them all, he keeps tabs on us and gathers intel from all of them, including their spells and techniques, which he plans to use to kill us. And, truth be told, combining all of the powers and skills of the strongest beings in the world together is a pretty solid plan.

They won’t learn it.

Generally, you want to salt ss early in the process as tasting is possible. Allowing it to cook into the food makes it more effective, and you’ll usually end up using less overall.

I’ve seen forms of this joke quite a lot in the last few years, and it never fails to make me laugh.

Because its value was always fictitious.

For Canada, unfortunately no. Unless Microcenter is available up there, that’s my go-to these days. You could maybe try them out online, I dunno if they’d ship to you.

Newegg lost all credibility with me years ago.
