The OS software i've been running my whole life doesn't match the machine it's running on. Luckily the machine is just configured incorrectly, therefore I will reconfigure it.
some days, huh.
animation UI requires too many things. if I make it spacious and comfortable then it almost takes the whole screen -_-

I love all programming languages. all of them. I love that they exist. I love that they're good at some things, bad at others. I love going over their designs, intentions, and outcomes - and seeing how well they landed with regards to their goals. I love reading their goals. I love seeing history, evolution, and stagnation. I love all of it, and I love using them under their intended mental space. I love using them for things they weren't made for.
It's really frustrating that programming /
There's so many cool things to see and learn and this weird stuff is blocking. You'll come out a 10000x better programmer if you discard it.

You can have your own personality. Try to contribute stuff to the conversation that hasn't been copy pasted between reddit/HN/trashfireprogrammersontwitterdotcom a million times.
Literally anything else.
If you find yourself accidentally indoctrinated by this culture in programming, just look closely at yourself.
It's ok not to like using a language. It's ok to not like being forced to use a language. It's ok to really dislike languages. It's ok to love a language more than any others. It's ok to use the best tool for the job, highly recommended. It's all ok!
But please for everyone around you just ...don't /
as a space to exist is so heavily identity and dogma based.
Why people stake their sense of identity and self on the tools they use - instead of seeing them as they are - tools, I'll never understand.
They draw lines in the sand, and yell back and forth like children. They form religions and slap the wrist of anyone who says anything. They get entitled about everything and anything. They think their language invented the concepts they implement now (nope). They gatekeep the most inane stuff /

I automated deployment of my website from github on my vps, by using a simple github webhook.
Here's an example of a validated server side webhook handler, using node.js, if you're looking for an example on how.
