Scene: I’m Sitting In My Dorm Room The First Semester Of College.

Scene: I’m sitting in my dorm room the first semester of college.

I finally get my code working and am doing the final cleanup before submitting. I delete some lines that I had commented out because, you know, I was scared to get rid of them at the time in case they became useful later.

I run my code after deleting the aforementioned COMMENTS just to make sure everything still works. As expected, it works! Then it doesn’t. Then it works again! And again! Then it doesn’t. I put the comment back in just in case that’s what was keeping everything together (see: superstition) and it works for 6 straight tests, which thoroughly confuses me.

I ultimately found out that the problem was not, in fact, with the comments that do nothing but actually with an integer I was declaring and incrementing without ever initializing, creating “random” behavior.

Looking at you, C++

I won't ever take you back.

And yet it hurts that you don't even want me to.

Update: While fun and neat, I still have yet to find a suitable hobbyist use case for Go.

Well of course. Mina is an ELITE data wrangler.

Want to go on record and say that the owner of this blog did, in fact, read dracula daily. Time and time again I tried to think of fun ways to relate it to programming. Yet time and time again I couldn’t bring myself to do it.

Not because there weren’t ways I could shoehorn in a weird analogy, but because I admired the characters too much to force one. Idk it just felt disrespectful to bring code into this.

Will happily disrespect Dracula, though. Got some real cobol energy from that dinosaur. Particularly the way he drains the life out of a lot of happy, wonderful people.

CSS, the most toxic lover

Oh CSS,

I have not a single guess

how one can hope to ever

with you win success.

Sweet CSS, 

you leave my sanity a mess

and my div tags all in shambles

while I trudge on with hopelessness.

Bitter CSS,

though you display indifference

as you treat me miserably

to you I will always return, nonetheless.

The more I work with front-end dev the more respect I have for UX designers. It takes 2 hours for me just to make sure that when the window resizes I don’t lose all functionality.

For Those Of You Who Are Worried About AI Taking Over The World, This Is The Sentence Produced By A “neural

For those of you who are worried about AI taking over the world, this is the sentence produced by a “neural network” (a fancy name for my relative frequency matrix) after I had it read Beowulf, Galen, Guinea, Little Women, Mansfield Park, Peter Pan, Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, A Tale of Two Cities, and The Call of the Wild. (All are freely available on Project Gutenberg in many filetypes including plain text, btw).
