I love that he didn't even give a hint. The other person might have gone about teir day being happy to have helped.

[-] [email protected] 80 points 3 months ago

Yeah that's a nice reaction, the other dude wasn't being a jerk so no need to make him feel bad about it.

"Hey, here's a useful thing that I recommend to people: "

It's basically a compliment

[-] [email protected] 28 points 3 months ago

Absolutely!

That's not always good. Maybe they just did not read the handle and assumed someone random asked, but didn't know they wanted this library. That's probably a good assumption, too.

This is an xy Problem. Voting to close.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

I just had someone send me a link to that when I asked a question. Infuriating.

[-] [email protected] 53 points 3 months ago

He says that but I bet he never even checked it out smh

With enough zooming, even I can tell it’s the same profile picture. Wow.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

Not to mention the identical user names. But idk, could be a different colinhacks.

[-] [email protected] 38 points 3 months ago

lol “strongly typed”, “loosely typed”.

I don’t even use variables anymore. Wake up sheeple.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 3 months ago

I just use window["…"] to hold my variables.

So... pure functional programming w/ out state?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

No, registers and bit-wise manipulation. In a Minecraft server running in the browser.

[-] [email protected] 32 points 3 months ago

That's a whole lot more wholesome than most of what goes on in the Stack Overflow arenas.

facepalm thank you

[-] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

Look at the profile pictures.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Or just the usernames

[-] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

That's honestly a really nice interaction

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

I liked typescript until I started working with people who like strict types.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

What's wrong with strict types?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago
[-] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago

Sigh. Guess I need the joke explained?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

It's the people who love to talk about strict types that tend to be the problem

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

It could be any colinhacks, you know?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

But Doctor, I am Pagliacci!
