Recently I encountered an issue with “casting”. I had a class “foo” and a class “bar” that extended class foo. I made a list of class “foo” and added “bar” objects to the list. But when I tried use objects from “foo” list and cast them to bar and attempted to use a “bar” member function I got a runtime error saying it didn’t exists maybe this was user error but it doesn’t align with what I come to expect from languages.

I just feel like instead of slapping some silly abstraction on a language we should actually work on integrating a proper type safe language in its stead.

I’ve been programming in typescript recently, and can I say. I fucking hate JavaScript and typescript. It’s such a pain so much odd behaviors.

Try breaking each character in the string into its own token, it’ll have an easier time because it’ll actually know what the string is

To be honest the thing that confuses me is that I am conscious. That’s weird, how am I aware, there is no explanation of this. Assuming we pretty much understand all physics and science and there isn’t anything surprising around the corner. Consciousness has to be a physical thing, a computation. But that’s weird as hell too? What rule of the universe governs whether or not something is aware. A brain could do everything it does now without being really aware just pretending. And if that’s true does that mean it’s just the flow of information that can become conscious? Could anything become conscious? If I made a marble Rube Goldberg machine complicated it enough and doing the right calculations could it be conscious?? It feels wrong it feels like we are missing something

Fun fact scrolling actually gums up your brain and prevents you from finding something to do. Your brain craves easy dopamine. Deprive it of the dopamine and you’ll find something

Xournal++ works pretty good in my experience

Object draw is not a pdf editor sadly, it’s technically something else but I forget what. I made the same mistake a couple weeks back

This probably doesn’t exist but is probably worse the a flat head. What about a friction screw where the top is like rubber and to unscrew you need to rotated using a driver with another flat rubber head

I’d say it’s probably on the borderline of faith. It’s less faith and more of a necessity due to the limited capacity of the human brain.

You build on foundational knowledge, and in science the goal is to question everything instead of blind faith in what you know

I really hate when people equate them. science is not a religion. Is is the study of the universe in fact not in opinion and guesses.

Fortunately it was just the Nixos foundation that was having issues. The Nixpkg repo and nix package manager were stable

Nix is great, I went from arch to nix and never went back. All the customization, none of the risk. You break your rig you roll back to its previous state

I only use marketplace, there are very good deals

Gnome! I use Nixos so I prefer to use things that can be configured using its system, I like KDE but I can’t find a elegant way to configure the UI layout using nix
