Not enough context. Depending on what you proxy, you can allowlist DNS and IPs. You can use DNS to query domains for alternative delivery sources.

yes, it would be possible

Asking whether you’ve tried $simpleSolution

the post sounded less like it being an open question and more like it being “do $simpleSolution” to me

Instead I’d be offered simple solutions (that I’d tried), but in a condescending way, as though I should have already known better.

Checking again, yeah, this doesn’t seem to be about asking whether you already tried that.

Windows is / Windows filesystems are case insensitive too.

On a Linux environment? Mind sharing the usage area?

I waited a minute

You’re already considering it; try it out.

Exploration and prototyping is not a life-commitment that excludes other options later (like going back to Rust after all).

How did you determined that your coding skills are “absolute shit”?

If you plan to study CS having qualifications and personal projects and stuff, you’re very likely already ahead of the curve; you already have the head-start you want.

In general,

• invest into what interests you or has use for you; code a tool you use or need, look at a project you use or you have interest in; personal investment drives you forward with interest and motivation
• smaller projects are easier to read and get into than larger projects
• [many if not most] public (same as private projects) may be in a bad or awful state, but you can still learn from them
• nothing is as good for learning as working on a project with a good mentor
• prefer official resources, tutorials and guidance over third parties, if available; they will more likely be more up-to-date and more likely better than the other way around
• studying computer science can teach the leap from coding to software engineering; mentoring can too
• experience, both amount and variance, drives all you do
• there’s a lot of resources for many things to read and learn

You listed algorithms first, I think that’s a well scoped, reachable goal, with many resources available. Increasing that scope, meaning also effort and risk of giving up, you could combine algorithms with a visualization, e.g. drawing on a HTML canvas. Now you have a well scoped project, where you visually see progress, and meet two of your learning goals of algo and web.

Ah, I looked there on Wiktionary, but only ur not ur- 😅

Is ur an English word? Known meaning in English languages? I don’t think so? I’m surprised they don’t mention why they name it ur-languages.

In German, the word prefix ur means origin, stemming from the word Ursprung (origin). Which makes sense as origin-languages. And could have been named origin-languages, honestly.

I learned of those files outside the context of programming. When program or file zip packages contained these random ds store files and I looked up what they are.

Turns out, it’s metadata caching for macOS. Irrelevant and does not belong into [distributed or shared] packages.

/edit: It’s been a long time ago. Looking at it again, I guess it adds folder metadata, so it could be useful when distributing to other macOS. But for other OS, it’s noise. Either way, usually it’s not intentionally included.

Case insensitive handling protects end-users from doing “bad” things and confusion.

is exactly the same as programming case sensitivity

Me working on a case insensitive DB collation 🤡🚀🐱‍🏍

Why would you order lowercase before uppercase?

One cucumber 🥒 👀

Reads (including the article links) like PostgreSQL supports json and Microsoft focuses on bson.

Your broad claim and what is actually being banned on instances makes it seem you want to include questionable if not destructive opinions.

Can you be more concrete? What are you missing, and where?

What banned content that couldn’t find a home on another instance do you want to see?

Do you think opinions should be shareable in any form, or only in respectful form?

Depends on context, but

• Notepad++
• Visual Studio
• Visual Studio Code
• Double Commander “quick”-editor
• vim
• micro
• Firefox dev tools (console, dom edit)

When I write HTML, I don’t use IDE features but accept them in Visual Studio.

I feel like it’s very varied, but I’m not one to listen to metal or much rock. What I listen to changes from time to time.

I know the meme/prejudice of programmers listening to metal, and having long hair. I can’t say I’ve ever felt like it was confirmed or justified. But it’s not like I have that much exposure or insight to many either.

I’m not even sure I can list genres; I feel like it’d be too many and unspecific anyway. Chillhop, chillsynth, hip-hop, deep house, some pop, some german and japanese music, some chiptune, some classics of the last century; some are shared on https://soundcloud.com/kissaki

Available as AppImage, via nix and uv (never heard of that before).

Typing the commands is always a hassle. I wish I had a TUI like this. Looks promising.
