          it was coca cola mixed with coffee. sweetened both with high fructose corn syrup, and two artificial sweeteners, simultaneously. I still remember the aftertaste… it’s not something you forget.

      It never went away for me, I just make it myself!

      I’ll have like 1/4 glass of milk and add chocolate syrup then as I mix that I add seltzer and if stirring correctly it won’t fizz up. I know people say adding the acidity of seltzer spoils the milk, but I’ve never noticed it when I make it.

        Spoiling milk is all about the ratio of the fat. It’s why cream is used in alcoholic drinks. The higher fat content of the cream means it can take more without spoiling. Try yours with skim milk vs. whole and taste the difference.

    I live in a pretty mountainous area, but I can think of a couple blind corners on small hills near me. So probably the one on the way to the bakery while running or biking.

    But I do a lot of ski touring so I’d rather die on one of the big ones.

        Because when I move left in tabs, the cursor isn’t clear which tab I’m on. It also tried to sit off the left edge of a terminal in some editors because it aligns with the right side of the character (the tab), instead of the left.

        I do see how tabs are a better option : they allow the one editing the file to decide how wide the indentation is. That’s actually good User Interface design, by separating the data from the rendering layout.

        I can see the argument both ways, but I like to use spaces so the visual and editing interfaces are more standard.

        My big reason would be “it hurts readability”. That is, when writing code, readibility for others who aren’t familiar with it (including future me) is my top-priority, and that means indentation and alignment are HIGHLY important, and if I spend the time to write code with specific indentation and alignment, to make it readable at a glance, I want to be certain that it’s always going to display exactly that way. Tabs specifically break that guarantee, because they’re subject to editor settings, which means shit like the below example can occur:

        I write the following code with an editor that uses a tab size of 4.

        myObject.DoSomething(
            someParameter:      "A",
            someOtherParameter: "B",
            value:              "C");
        

        If someone pulls this up in an editor that uses a tab size of 8, they get…

        myObject.DoSomething(
            someParameter:          "A",
            someOtherParameter:     "B",
            value:                          "C");
        

        Not really a big deal, in this simple case, but it illustrates the point.

        My second reason would be that it makes code more difficult to WRITE, I.E. it’s not that hard to insert spaces when you mean to insert tabs, considering that you’re not LITERALLY using only tabs just only tabs for indentation and alignment. And if you do accidentally have spaces mixed in, you’re not going to be able to tell. The guy on another machine with different editor settings will, though.

        I’m aware there are fonts that can make spaces and tabs visible and distinct, but that sounds like a NIGHTMARE to write and read code with. I mentioned above, my top priority is easy readability, and introducing more visual noise to make tabs and spaces distinct can only hurt readability.

      I don’t understand why this is such a big deal for anyone. With all the UI utilities available it would be incredibly easy to have a setting to interpret 5 consecutive spaces as a tab or a tab as 5 consecutive spaces and just let whoever prefers what to choose how they are going to interface with the code. Hell, you could even make it so 5 is the default and have custom consecutive values as an advanced option in the interpreter for edge cases. So many incredibly more challenging issues have been resolved in IDEs, I just don’t get it.

        Reading a tab as however many spaces is trivial, and the point of tabs.

        Reading however many spaces as a tab is a gross hack that has to be dialed-in for whatever standard the document chose.

        Just use tabs in the first place. God damn. That’s what they’re for.

          I’m on team tab 100% I guess I was saying if someone felt they had to use spaces then they shouldn’t handicap everyone else because of their choice and an interpreter could normalize their code.

      As an American, this disagrees with my worldview. But I also don’t know enough about the British version to say your wrong 🤷‍♂️

      I never watched the British one, and I don’t care for the American one, too cringey. Makes me sympathetic cringe.

      Sweet and savory is a god tier class of food IMHO. Pineapple on pizza is just the tip of the delicious iceberg. Have you tried peaches with rice and curry? Or raisins in rice? I also like sweet and sour sauce, especially with little pieces of assorted fruits.

      My girlfriend hates it, in her opinion the only way to go with savory is salt, although she tolerates pork and pineapple on pizza, since the salty pork overpowers the sweet of the pineapple. But I love it!

        That sounds very interesting!. Do you mean curry leaves, or a particular curry sauce? I know e.g. masaman often includes peanuts.

          Curry powder! I’ve never tried curry leaves or curry sauce, but those sound delicious too. Whichever way you add the curry, I highly recommend trying it!

          I discovered that combo when I was living in Sweden where it’s a fairly common one that most pizza places offer. I believe the pizzas are usually called Bahamas, Afrikana or Tropicana and they always feature pineapple, banana and curry, and usually either ham, shrimp or peanuts.

    Using tabs for document management (f.e. Browsers, Text-Editors, …) was a mistake. It would be way better if every document (website, text-file, image, console, …) was in its own window, centrally managed by an intelligent window manager of the OS that allows quick and easy search between all documents like with a full-text searchable exposè-like view.

    Using tabs for document-management was a bad but necessary workaround because Windows is a horrible window manager (despite its name, ironically).

    Tabs work best when there is a fixed amount of them (Like with game settings: Controls, Audio, Video, Gameplay).

    I could go on for quite a while on this, but I think this is where I stop.

    Anyone who puts always-on blue LEDs in electronics deserve the oubliette. People who put such LEDs in electronics meant for the bedroom deserve an oubliette that’a slowly filling with water.

      That sucks, but you can put some isolation tape on LEDs.

      But I wish something horrible to those who thought it’s a great idea to make every goddamn electronic device make beeping noises.

      My water boiler, fan, washing machine. In my childhood I don’t remember everything beeping at every interaction. It makes me furious and you often cannot fully disable it.

      Once I tried to solder the beeper out but my soldering iron was probably not suitable so I failed :(

        You can muffle the beeper pretty effectively with some tape, the old air fryer we had terrified one of the dogs because of the incessant beeping. My coffee scale by default beeps whenever you touch it, thankfully that’s 100% mutable.

        I also hate this.

      Allow me to try and persuade you. The problem is bright blue LEDs. It’s still stupid that they make them so bright, but the problem isn’t the color. A hypothetical bright red, green, or amber LED would also be a problem.

        Shorter wavelengths hit different though. That’s why we have blue light filtering glasses, Redshift, etc.

          a non-diffused, bright, monocromatic red led would still be painful to look at in the dark, it’s just that blue LEDs tend to be brighter + our eyes are more sensitive to blueish green light at night + the damn companies don’t bother putting a diffuser in front of the diode.

      Or just excessively bright LEDs. Just because LEDs are super efficient, doesn’t mean they should take them as bright as they can go.
