I love everything about Godot so much, except for its UI system

It is just so confusing to me and took me over a day to get a simple menu aligned how I wanted

it might just be me not understanding how it works though

React is JSX*

Nothing preventing them from making an <If condition={…}>…<Else>… component

I mean, yeah, the ternary operator is part of JS syntax. But it WAS React’s choice to not include any alternative way to if/else add an element (there is an if/else but only for the entire component, not just for conditionally adding one element within a component). So indirectly this is React’s syntax decision.

Omg I was confused because the Gist also said “Last active 23 minutes ago” which I thought was the last edited/created time

It’s not the most pretty syntax, but it’s wayyy better than React’s terrible (expression ? … : …) or (expression && …)

Not the person you’re asking, but I’m 22 and personally I just love the pixelated OS aesthetic

I love pixel art, and Windows 95 looks so cute!

I mean if you just want a number, I like the idea of a hard cap of wealth at 100 million

Enough money for you and your family to live the rest of your lives experiencing the best of the best that the world has to offer

Why would anyone even need more money? “People would be less motivated to achieve!” No, people would be more motivated because there’s more money to go around instead of sitting in a couple thousand bank accounts

Of course this is just an idea that wouldn’t work in practice and wealthy people would just continue to skirt the rules like they do now. And I’m not an economist so there’s probably some negative side effects I don’t know about

Yeah, also this:

> Imagine calling someone on the phone, going hello! then putting them on hold.

I literally start every call with “hello” and then I pause to see if they're there…

I enjoy taking photos and reviewing food. I used to do it on Zomato, and made some friends through that, but Zomato pulled out of my country and Google Maps is pretty much the only good existing choice

On the flip side, as an avid Google Maps reviewer they also removed my negative review from a restaurant without any good reason (supposedly the business reported it as being “fake” or something)

It really pissed me off because I wrote a long thoughtful review and mentioned the good aspects of the restaurant too as well as some recommendations, and it’s just completely gone

The worst part is the restaurant is sitting at 4.5 stars despite being quite bad, and the recent low star reviews are all questioning the rating, which is obviously artificial

Goodreads is so bad, but there’s no good book review site alternative (although many good book trackers). I’ve been wishing for a Letterboxd like alternative with good UI and features

Maybe it would be more clear if you specified salary is in exchange for a certain minimum amount of output, then I would kinda agree. But then you also are expected be at work for the remainder of your contractual work hours. So it’s not as easy as saying one or the other is completely true, it’s a mixture of both time and output

Finally figuring out Flexbox was the moment I stopped dreading writing CSS because it does make a lot of things so much easier

I recommend the game Flexbox Froggy, which is how I learnt it

I am guilty of making some tiny commits I wouldn’t otherwise have to keep my github green box streak up…

Hehe, I think many parents do tend to sweeten the deal for the youngest so they don’t have to deal with empty nest syndrome

Yeah, their instagram and twitter and completely empty besides this post, created in the past month too

Eric and Toby Fox were literal heroes to me, they introduced the idea to me that someone could create a video game on their own. I grew away from video games, but I probably wouldn't have learnt programming without them

Yeah, I noticed this since I have two accounts with emails that are one character apart, and I was unable to log into one of my accounts because of this feature…

This is synonymous with calling a writer bad at writing because they pointed out bad writing. The conclusion should be the opposite shouldn’t it?

Like everything, there needs to be a balance. A healthy amount of selfishness is necessary for self-preservation, but too much is just greed. I found this wiki page on "enlightened self-interest" that has some interesting info related to the topic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enlightened_self-interest

Yeah, I assumed they were Microsoft because I’ve never heard FAAMNG before
