I think gdb+peda is pretty great but pretty much everything I do in a debugger is binary exploitation stuff. also I’ve never used anything other than gdb, lldb, and whatever’s built into eclipse for java stuff

wtf "every time"??? it has literally never happened to me in almost 40 years on this cursed earth

yeah, codeine cough syrup as a kid and college student with strep (far too sick to enjoy it), vicodin as an adult with a cracked rib or sprain or w/e

it’s prob been a decade since the last time it happened, but that’s mostly because I was too poor to go to the doctor when I was all active and stuff so when I got hurt id just rest and eat lots of otc medicine and hope it got better (it always did hooray)

opiates just make me feel calm and there's like a relaxing hum at the back of my head.

same. I still feel the pain but i don’t mind it, it’s weird. luckily I’ve never had an injury bad enough to get a big enough prescription to develop a dependency so thankfully never had to experience withdrawals

a lot of what word used to be (is?) used for is dumb flyers and stuff where the message is "Come to the cafeteria on April 20 for employee appreciation cake. this is mandatory." all the people want to do there is to write a simple message, mess with the fonts, and throw in some clip art. sure it's not the best tool for page layout stuff, but by being ok-ish at both document layout and actual word processing as well as ubiquitous, it does pretty well

I wrote my dissertation in Word and it was fine. the equation editor did its job just fine. it was a pain in the rear end of course, but it was the least-bad tool at the time. second place would've been latex and I really didn't want to dick with that when I really had more important things to spend time on. if I'd already known how to use latex it probably would've been the best choice but 🤷‍♀️

if it makes you feel better I spent my 20s in a phd program unrelated to my current employment

I don't regret it and would probably do it again, but I'm >5 years behind the career curve and that stings sometimes

but I mean, it proves you can switch careers into computer touching if you want so there's always that!

instead of unmarshaling as a class that comes from the db, you can also store a version and deserialize according to that. doing it this way forces you to use a whitelist instead of doing some terrible
code:
field1.constantize.from(field2)
without validating field1 and regretting it when somebody RCEs your poo poo

I’m glad I’m not the only person who doesn’t understand why everyone’s gone wild about a pretty mediocre webapp-in-a-window

as far as I can tell it's because their primary comparison case is atom, which is terrible in every way

i think that atom only took over from sublime because it's free and easier to learn than vim or emacs

see also i18n for internationalization, a11y for accessibility, etc.
