  I tell people I’m a software engineer but in reality I’m a configure file engineer

    Eh. Software is just data too. It’s about solving problems with systems using those systems and other systems and that’s software engineering. It’s recursive and wherever you are in the stack you’re standing on the shoulders of giants, and you’re still doing engineering. 💪

      I am working on nand2tetris right now and learing about all the layers of abstraction is just terrific.

  Did you know YAML is a recursive acronym? It stands for ‘YAML AML MAML LAML’

    Is it polynomially recursive? Like, the AML stands for “AML MAML LAML”, and so on?

  YAML would such a nice language for config files but then it turns out that “no” is falsy and so a list of Scandinavian countries turns from

  • se
  • fi
  • no

  into

  • "se"
  • "fi"
  • False

  I wish there was like a JSON5 equivalent for YAML that just reduces its scope lol
  (and no, TOML also looks ugly :P)

    Norway is false and Finland isn’t in Scandinavia

    This is definitely a failing of yaml. Though, I feel that generally it’s the sort of thing you learn once the hard way, then it sticks with you pretty well.

    Also I’m glad there are more anti-toml folks are out there, feels like I’m taking crazy pills when people say it is “simple” and “elegant”. IMO it’s uglier than old-school ini format - at least it’s more strictly defined but that doesn’t really sway me to convert

      Which is better for structured data?

      • elegant, human readable, indentation sensitive language that’s great for deep nesting but has some weird idiosyncrasies with some dynamically typed parsers being too smart for their own good
      • glorified ini

      The choice is clear

      TOML isn’t elegant at all but damn, it is really simple.

      And yet its faster, easier and more reliable in setting up and maintaining complex cluster software.

  You know, at this point I’ve been writing YAML on and off for a while now. You’d think I actually understand the syntax by now, but I don’t.

  Could’ve been worse. Could be unprettified json.

  • magic_lobster_party@kbin.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Json is incredibly easy to prettify.

    • synae@lemmy.sdf.org ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      I do it by converting to yaml ;)

      source
    • Cratermaker@discuss.tchncs.de ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      I wrote a json prettifier a couple months ago with just a couple lines of code. I thought it would take a while but ended up taking like 10 minutes.

    In typical ansible fashion, expect it in 20 years.
