  • The technology behind the registry is fine (which is what I think @VinesNFluff meant)

    But it’s execution in Windows was ass

    In theory, a configuration manager with DB-like abilities (to maintain relationships, schematic integrity, and to abstract the file storage details), isn’t a bad idea

    But the registry as it is today is pure pain




  • Software dev here,

    It doesn’t stop you from typing code, but it does drastically hinder the process. You often need to pull up technical documentation (for the language, framework, platform, etc), or search the internet for things, like “C# HttpClient how to serialize JSON with a different naming policy”

    Not to mention, if any of your dev resources are online, no Internet prevents you from running your code. Like, if you need to connect to an S3 bucket, AWS instance, or Azure Database

    I mean, you just need to look at the conflicting files, fix up the code, then stage those changes and pop a new commit

    There’s no “special” merge conflict resolution commit “type”


    As for fixing the code itself, I usually look at what changed between both versions, and then re-author the code such that both changes make “sense”





  • Any time you feel that sinking feeling especially while browsing c/all or such, close the app and do something else

    Doomscrolling is not worth your sanity


    This is the reason I recently unsubed from a bunch of meme threads on Lemmy. They were a non-stop barrage of political doom posting.

    Understandable, given current events. But it was too much for me
