BehindTheBarrier

I made a super basic blog by hand using actix-web. Basic processing of markdown into HTML and then present it through handmade (and chatgpt assisted) html+css with htmx to spice things up and try to do mimic a single page application. I don't have much web experience though, so much of it is crude.

I don't host myself yet, I used Shuttle which procides free hosting for hobby rust projects. It also comes with postgres so I have been looking into how to move from storing articles in files to a database for more consistent article support. Shuttle also supports other things than actix-web, so you don't havr to use that specifically.

While I said blog, I don't support new articles without a redeploy yet... And it only has like 3 random articles based on reddit posts. But it works at least.

I guess I should be happy I applied a work discount, which extended my subscription until Oktober 2026 or something.

That data display is really cool, since I don't know too much about how a specific number is presented like that double.

That unit calculation is also pretty cool.

Because I want to be a God.

It's a bit of hyperbole, but I was using some program on my pc and was frustrated because it didn't do things I wanted it to do. Or it had bugs, and there was no way for me to get that changed, so I was left to pray that somehow the creator would find this small problem and fix it. I was envious of those people that could make these windows with buttons that made things happen. I wanted this power that transcended what I could see on my screen, and change how that world worked.

And so, I learned to program. I took the powers to shaped my own creations and ascended.

Thanks, I figured I was missing some connection.

Unsure if a joke or not, but in the event of a serious question:

scrum masters are heads of scrum teams, their main purpose is facilitating good work conditions for the workers in the team. This generally means arranging and leading typical scrum meetings, helping workers do their job and shielding them from the Production Owner (the guy that decides what they are to make/deliver during a sprint . (sprints are 2-3 weeks long, where work is done according to a selection done at the start of the sprint and interruptions are kept low during that time.)

I don't want to say that it's an easy roles, but it's more a management type of role than a worker role. In my team the scrum master is also doing development work, since scrum master tasks alone aren't that huge with the way we do things.

Then you have a bit more to do yeah, you should look into object oriented programming and classes. Classes are pretty much everywhere in C#. At the beginner level they aren't as bad as they seem but you need to understand it's basics. The guide I linked in another comment also has short introduction to using a class for example.

In my case, I had local music synced up in a playlist, and the playlist still did shuffle though my music. (which Spotify didn't know the artist of given that it wasn't part of their library.) The broken shuffle was just one of many reasons why I stopped using streaming and went with local music players back in the day.

I sure don't sound helpful saying this, but it's mostly about finding the equivalent to the python action/types, and typing them out when making functions and variables. Though 99% of the time, you are completely fine defining variables as var to avoid excessive typing.

I assume you dealt a bit with classes in python, if not then you're doing double time with both changing language and learning object oriented classes at the same time.

If there is any specific I can try to give some clarity since I also came from Python to C#.

I found C# to pretty much be python just with strict types and semicolons. Jumped right into it really on my first job and it worked out pretty fine, granted I got to orient myself in the existing project where I started.

You are perhaps already familiar, but some things stand out like public/private annotations and other class related things like interfaces which work to create a more organized and controlled use compared to pythons "we are all consenting adults" approach were nothing ever really truly blocked from you. It depends a little on what you want to do/use it for, there's frameworks and different uses like WPF / .NET for the frontend.

While it may be too basic for you, ZetCode was useful for me back when learning PyQt in python, so you might find some use with the C# intro: https://zetcode.com/all/#csharp

It doesn't make much practical sense when the entire playlist if downloaded and they still do this. Just ruins the listening experience.

For me it looped though the same 30 songs out of more than 1000. I much prefer a one time shuffle that guarantee all songs in my playlist, just in a new order. It's not exactly rocket science, if it's in the playlist it naturally should be played. That and horrible sync with local music made me just go all "offline" with PowerAmp on mobile and Foobar2000 on pc...
