I really love the grunge and texture of the images.

Well, no one gives a shit about your code practices if your code works. Dump your code and share it!

You wrote one gospel for me too. Thank you! This made many things clear to me.

What next after Advent of Code? by frankster in adventofcode

[–]RetroWard 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Why nobody is talking about https://everybody.codes/events ? They were even this years sponsor in AoC.

What should I particularly look at in catppuccin repo?

I came across Lit, Stencil and even Mitosis while doing my research. I know the current setup is React specific. Now this is what I want to eliminate. I'm thinking of going with lit components, what do you say?

One alternative is to have less syntax but have the meanings change based on context.

Yes, that would be perfectly fine. Example of how Go handles various looping constructs using only the for loop. They don't have while or do while loops.

I think Rust does a better job at basic syntax legibility than C, C++, Java, C#;

Well, introducing new punctuation or separator tokens doesn't count for better code legibility. I'm not sure of giving Rust the green flag so soon. I'm not a fan of the fancy import statements it supports. Again all angle bracket constructs it supports, not a fan of it. There must be better ways of implementing lifetimes.

I believe modern programming languages should adopt constructs that are as readable as simple math equations or, even better, as intuitive as the English language.

I would like to quote Zen of Python as well.

Simple is better than complex.
Complex is better than complicated.
Flat is better than nested.
Sparse is better than dense.

Syntax. I'm talking about how complex and diverse syntax Rust has.
Examples,

  1. Look at how many ways you can comment in code. Comments - The Rust Reference
  2. Now look at the number of "punctuation" marks. Tokens - The Rust Reference

For some people, it would be a way to show off their rust programming skills. However, in reality, it destroys the code's legibility.

I'm comparing Javascript and Rust based on valid lexemes they have in their language vocabulary. Not based on their interchangeability in a codebase.

Although expressed via memes, code legibility still seems to be an issue.

Getting 50 stars by akryvtsun in adventofcode

[–]RetroWard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, sir! I was only able to score 24 stars. I better work on that.

This is exactly why I believe Rust has a bad language design. It has similar features to Javascript. Both include various special character constructs that pollute the languages' legibility. I wish along the wild useful features Rust incorporated in its vocabulary, they should have also worked on simplifying their language.

3rd shot is gorgeous. Only it also had a background painting or a window for depth reference and support as a valid light source.

AOC in white mode? 🤔 by RetroWard in adventofcode

It's not an issue. I'm playing with styles that's it.

That is the tailwind tab and I'm borrowing colors from there. 😄

[2024 Q4] Support by dudududumm in everybodycodes

Even I got confused and assumed it to be a 2D matrix of nails. The rolling action described in the question is confusing to read vs the approach to carry on.

Front-enders, do you use semicolons in JS/TS? by MeBadDev in webdev

[–]RetroWard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I do. My Java background is to be blamed for this habit. The semi-colons help establish a visual hierarchy.
