Why do you seem so invested in the fact that well-known bigots might not actually be bigots?

When people tell you who they are: believe them.

No one is throwing “fake” bigotry accusations at anyone. And if you believe they are, then you also are a bigot. Period.

Not false. He admitted it and was forced to out of Mozilla because of it. It was a massive scandal.

The fact that you unironically use the phrase “gone woke” means discussion with you is pointless.

Enjoy being blocked.

Brendan Eich literally spent millions of dollars to push for the passage of Prop 8 in California, which would have banned same-sex marriage.

That’s the literal definition of a bigot.

Brave is malware made by a company run by a fucking bigot who used his millions to try to strip people of their human rights. They are not your friend

The Mythical Man-Month is a classic

Each language has their own conventions in the style guides for how they prefer variables and functions to be named.

For example,

• Python uses snake_case
• C and C++ also generally use snake case, but have specific conventions for particular types of variables
• Java, JavaScript, and C# use camelCase (like your examples)
• Pascal, Dart, and a few others use UpperCamelCase that’s like camel case, but the first letter is also capitalized

And then some organizations like to override those and institute their own conventions. I generally think the latter is a bad idea, since it breaks with accepted industry standards for a given language. Even for a personal project you know that no one else will touch, I think it’s good to follow the langues guides.

I generally wouldn’t make a compound word all lowercase. strikethroughoffset is much more difficult to read, IMO. If you’re going that route, then you should at least snake case it: strike_through_offset. But again, a lot of this is going to depend on your situation.

It’s not really a “get good” issue so much as it’s just an annoying part of the industry one has to navigate.

I have some git blame extention in VSCode, but otherwise no. Something about using gui tool for git makes me feel so disconnected from it, like I’m not entirely sure what’s going on, and afraid I’m going to fuck something up

Also, I forget commands all the time. Mostly ones I don’t use often, like changing/adding/removing remotes, changing settings, etc.
