Whatever future iteration of ChatGPT that eventually enslaves the human race will be using Outlook and Excel to keep track of the genocide.

BURN THE HERETIC
Even now, the only thing that Javascript has going for it is that it’s not Groovy…
I hate Node and NPM so much that I have a physical reaction to just seeing the words now.
I already disliked Node & NPM quite a bit, but the hatred and disgust got to the point it is now after having to write a CI/CD pipeline in Groovy/Jenkins for a Node site that that our devs were building. I had to automate the build/deployment of Satan’s favorite framework in Satan’s favorite language. I came pretty close to quitting.
It’s out the door now, but I’m in the middle of reimplementing the pipeline in Github Actions so I don’t drink myself to death when they come knocking to do it again.
I’ve been using Linux professionally for a couple of decades and using it altogether since like 1996. I never knew about the timeout
command. I’m gonna have some fun with that.
I wonder if I can set someone’s shell to it…
More like <esc><esc><esc><esc><esc><esc><esc><esc>… Just in case
MY PEOPLE!
VSCode is what made me finally switch away from vim for anything but minor edits. It’s just too good.
I did set up vim keybindings in it, though.
I first settled on vim as a teenager because I was a fan of… performing surprise penetration tests.
It defaults to opening files read-only, so you don’t have to worry about the access/modified time on the file changing if you open one for… science reasons.
Man, this comment made me feel a little embarrassed at myself. I saw the shortcuts and thought about how I have a tradition of going to the top of the file when I’m done editing and about to save/quit. I always hit the shortcut for it and think “gg boys! Good game” and then quit out of vim.
Stop judging me.
You should settle on Liftoff because some of my code is running in it!
Or not. But it’d be pretty cool if you did.
Not sure what version you’re on, but the “compact” view in Liftoff now (I’m on version 0.10.9) is actually compact:
Quick editing for me is in vim. Anything else is in Visual Studio Code. Which I have set up with vim keybindings.
Aside from the callback chains and API shit, my issues with Node rest almost entirely on the lack of a standard library, because that led to the state of NPM today, which is just an absolute garbage-fire shitshow as far as I’m concerned.
I have my own separate issues with NPM, namely its dependency resolution (my God, just take dnf'
s dependency resolution algorithm and use it), trivial packages that other packages list as a dependency (is this an int? Is this running on Windows? Better take this one line and make it a package!), and the relative inability to remove a package from a registry (did a secret slip in there while testing? Tough shit!). The worst of that being the trivial packages, I think, because then you can end up with projects that can have a dependency tree 10s of thousands packages long.
And all that bullshit wouldn’t be even 1/16th of the problem it is today if there were a standard library.
You should take what I’m saying with a grain of salt, though, I’m just a DevOps Sysadmin, and aside from running some software that uses Node, most of my experience with it is unfucking it when our devs come to me to fix the tangled monster they’ve created.
I’ve had something similar happen, except the post that I found which fixed the problem was made by… me. Apparently I’d had the problem before, figured it out, and then posted an update about why it was happening and how to fix it.
That was some Twilight Zone shit.
At that point you may as well go full Vagrant or start using Docker images.
And no matter how quirky or obtuse venv/conda/pip can be, they will never be as bad as Node. Ever. Node will hold that King Shit crown forever, or at least to God I hope it does.
Something worse than Node coming around and getting popular might just make me quit IT altogether.
The worst part of ML is Python package management
Do you have some time to talk about our Lord and Savior, venv
?
A few jobs ago, we had a fleet (2K+) of mobile inkjet and Zebra printers that we were responsible for for some ungodly reason.
The Big Blue Sledgehammer from Lowe’s was the official method of decommissioning them per the IT disposal policy. That I wrote.
That’s the only thing I miss about that job.
But first, can you fix my printer?
“I need it to print off the marketing flyers for the app.”
I think that this line of reasoning becomes less and less tenable when things like Swagger exist.
This is why I got all of our devs to start building with the target of a Docker container in mind.
And for the ones who still won’t or can’t wrap their brains around Docker, I run their shit through a Github Actions workflow that spits out their ugly baby as a Docker container. In the end, I don’t give a shit what it is, your Rube-Goldberg piece of shit is getting stuffed into a Docker container.
“It works on my machine!” Yeah, well, your machine is now everyone’s machine thanks to the magic of containers. Now fix your broken shit so PagerDuty doesn’t call me at 3am again. Fuck.
