This site is great for learning the foot notes to programming languages, including stuff like json, yaml, and hcl.

So, basically, “we started learning Git and accidentally blew away the only copy of the code base we had!” 😂
I’ve watched new developers delete 2 weeks worth of development by misunderstanding Git🤦♂️
Alright stranger, let’s hear it. What is it about Fish that you love so much?
I’ve been generally happy with bash or zsh, pretty much whatever is installed by default (and I honestly don’t know the difference between the two I just mentioned 😬).
Gimp is all I know, I can’t compare to Photoshop, and I love it! ❤️
That’s fair. The replies here have opened my narrow thoughts that I’ve had on everyone solely using UTC.
In my defense, when discussing this with others in person, I’ve only ever been given garbage reasons to have time zones…
Now …can we all agree to hate Daylight Saving Time?
…this feels like Dune
This sounds wonderful. I played Windows games on Linux for a decade, and it was often a painful experience. I’d love to see some real life in-game comparisons to illustrate what this brings to the table!
I don’t think it’s actually realistic that this would ever change at this point in the game. I do think we could have adapted to all using UTC if we never started with time zones in the first place.
Yes. Many people already work shifts that have them do exactly that (show up to work on Monday, go home on Tuesday).
My first job had me work all sorts of shifts. Anything other than the day shift, I was showing up early or late evening one day, and leaving work early or late morning the next day.
Yes, this is literally what I’m proposing.
You do not still end up with the same issues. Somebody booking a ticket for a hotel room to be available at 1300 from a different time zone than said hotel will not arrive at the hotel to learn that the check in time is different from their expectation.
Regarding “the link between the hour of the day and the sun’s position,” I’m asserting that we should recalibrate this expectation based on time zones, rather than changing the clock to some fictitious time based on “noon” always equaling “1200.”
who gets to decide that everyone switches over and what is the new global time?
“Global time” in this context is already decided to be UTC. And no one gets to decide on the switch. This is a dream that will never come to fruition. 😕
Wow! I’ve been thinking about making something like this and I’ve even poked at a few “hacker/terminal/code” themed games. However, every time I get serious about giving this type of game my time, I think to myself, “I could just be programming and hacking something more useful than this, and I could just look at that experience as ‘the game’ rather than programming and hacking on something less valuable (the game, in this case).”
This train of thought has me working on an FPS built on Bevy. I’m hacking, learning, and convincing myself that this is the hacker game experience I wanted. Heck—I might even come out of this with something tangible that could generate money one day. At the very least, I’ve up-skilled my programming knowledge. 🤷♂️
That probably sounds uber boring and having said all this, I think I’ll still have to give this game a go!
