Wait, I know the author and will share the link so he can join here.

History of everything. But this is more of a fast talking podcast

Ha, a proof that by watching YouTube videos you learn something. This was covered by one of my favorite series on YouTube. Here is the particular video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fD-R35DSSZY

Offtopic: You could try ulisp[1] for an interactive Arduino development experience. [1]: http://www.ulisp.com/

I have nothing to do with web development but the YouTube channel fireship is great. Funny and informative.

I am looking for the same thing. A colleague has recommended mailbox.org
This looks really nice. I'll try that out. Do you know more similar games? I.e. where the choice of the programming language is done by the player?

I love the UI. Functional, simple, makes me look like a hoodie wearing hacker with gloves.
I can confirm all of it for Germany as well (except the Italian serpentine road synchronization hack).

I flash lights for oncoming traffics because of danger or police checks.

I flash warning lights (or raise right hand) for thank you. Others do as well (especially buses, when you let them out of the bus stop, since in Germany they don't have the right of passage leaving a bus stop)

I learned that truck drivers (and buses) flash left, when it's not safe to overtake.

There are also some official rules regarding bus flashing at a bus stop (right, warning). But most of drivers ignore that.

Re:Intel C/C++ compilers complete adoption of LLVM on Thursday August 12, 2021 @05:51AM (#28154183)
We use Intel Compiler mainly on supercomputers with Intel CPUs. IT can produce faster code. However it is not great to work with it. It lacks features of the newer standard and it is really slow. Usually we develop with clang or GCC and then we go on the cluster.
You should checkout lbmpy for generation of lbm kernels: https://pycodegen.pages.i10git.cs.fau.de/lbmpy/
There is an proposal for a GC-library: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Cv2IcsiokkGc2K_5FBTDKekN...

That is just like programming in D with extra steps.

Re:All Programming Languages are Wrong (2018) on Wednesday February 12, 2020 @01:26AM (#22306394)
I wonder what the author would do, when performance is critical. Today too many people rely on fast cpu and large memory. There are lots of applicants, where you need to optimize.
I use VS Codium. That is the opensource packaging without Microsofts calling home functionality: https://vscodium.com, with the Vim and code-d extension.

You also will want to change some shortcuts, so for example you can switch to terminal and back with CTRL+~, in order to run/test your app quickly.

I would also like to have a full fledged IDE like i have for Python with pycharm, but currently nothing is available.
