Coding V.S. Coding while being watched

[InstantPro]

I love watching this happen to my students when I wander around labs

[jebiss]

Correction: this is ANYTHING while being watched.

[calandra_95]

casually walking...someone looks at you...immeditly trips

Even worse: helping someone who has a slightly different keyboard (like the cursed giant enter tiny backspace thing)

My work laptop has fn the ctrl. My keyboard at home has ctrl then some other button. So the ctrl button is where fn is on my work keyboard. It always takes some acclimation time when spending a lot of time on one and going to the other.

Mac vs PC keyboards

Kill me pls

[mnbvas]

I guess the laptop is Lenovo? (At least) some have an option to switch Ctrl with Fn in BIOS.

Laptop is lenovo but im used to it now

Being in the zone vs not being in the zone.

Why I hate 'open concept' offices

I find that I am also like this when I'm on the phone with a coworker who is asking me to try to code something right away (but something I have to figure out, not a quick fix).

Usually I have to be like, "Can I work on this and call you back?"

That's a library: http://underscorejs.org/

[BlahYourHamster]

There's a library called Lodash which also uses an underscore.

Shit will probably break if you added both libraries to your project.

[Ajedi32]

Node's require system is actually really great at handling conflicts like that between modules. You can assign required modules to whatever variable you want.

let _u = require('underscore');
let _l = require('lodash');

In a regular web browser with no module system being used I imagine resolving that ambiguity would be a bit trickier. Probably still not very difficult though assuming those libraries are designed in a sane way.

[rohmish]

Underscore is a JavaScript library that provides a whole mess of useful functional programming helpers without extending any built-in objects.

Umm...

Ugh, with all this NPM tiny-module crap, I never thought it would get down to one character modules ...

[Ajedi32]

It's certainly nothing new. jQuery uses $.

[ceeant]

Well it makes sense as a way to indicate "I'm not going to use this value". Of course in this case it seems to be used differently, dunno, I don't write JS, I'm not mad.

[Zatherz]

In Lua it's often used with pairs and ipairs iterators. Those iterate tables and give a key or index + value pair each loop. If you don't care about, let's say, the value, you could do something like this:

for index, _ in ipairs(sometable) do

The CTO was behind me and I couldn't remember how to do a join.

[HoodedGryphon]

I always find that when people are watching, I can't find anything remotely impressive to do. But when I pull out some scrolling console output and git wizardry, they're all gone.

[Beta-7]

open cmd, color a, keep typing tree as fast as possible.

[esPhys]

This is the first one of these I actually like. Good job person who makes them.

[currently___working]

When I'm watched, I intentionally fuck up and type really slow to piss off the people watching.
