  • It’s so hard to choose just one…

    I think I’d have to nominate the Monogatari series. Each arc centers around a character, and that character’s VA sings the op, not to mention most of them are incredibly catchy.

    Macross Plus also has a phenomenal sound track, with some of Yoko Kanno’s best work, IMO. It also ties in heavily with plot involving an AI pop superstar. It’s really still pretty prescient today.

    Some of the Yuki Kaijura soundtracks have been pretty outstanding as well. Both .hack//sign and Noir, for example.

    I’ve had this experience in other languages, but never python. Find the missing semicolon and getting a cryptic error message is a very common programming experience.

    The reason I never had this problem in python is that by the time I learned it, I was already a fairly experienced developer, and I used better tooling from the get go. This kind of error is reallllllly hard to make in a modern IDE using a linter and formatter.

    That suggests to me that this is more likely a fairly language agnostic experience. It might even bias people against the languages they learn first.


  • The short answer is: No.

    Each site would need to implement this feature themselves. Think of all the potential platforms out there: lemmy, reddit, pinterest, instagram, linkedin, tiktok, snapchat, tumblr, whatsapp, friendster, quora… this list is long. Like REAL long, and Lemmy is nowhere near the top in popularity. Probably not even in the top 50 yet. Why would site developers implement Lemmy sign on over any of these others?

    We did have a concerted effort at some point to adopt openid which was specifically designed to unify all these signons in an open manner, but instead we ran into the Standards Problem: xkcd 927.


  • You can even sometimes run commands inline to see how stuff reacts.

    It’s honestly not a bad way to write some of the more complex lines of code too. In python/vscode(ium), you can set a breakpoint where you’re writing your code and then write the next line in the watches section. That way you can essentially see a live version of the result you’re getting. I especially like this for stuff like list comprehension, or indexing logic where you might normally expect a possible off by one or key error.
