Yeah so you gotta buy the lumafly lantern before you go on that area

I never expected a Hollow Knight reference here

TFW when all of your bugs are like cockroaches that run away from the light but hide in the dark where you can’t see them.

But I have an LCD display

non-AMOLED devices spreading misinfo by enabling dark mode by default on low battery and it’s consequences…

Knew a programmer that was near blind who only used magnifier on maximum zoom with his IDE. One of the best programmers I met, but his screen looked very much like that. Don’t know how he did it.
2deck@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Programming happens in the mind. Whats on the screen is a pale and lifeless polaroid devoid of the moving, complex soul of real code.

That feels like that scene in Amadeus, when Mozart dictates his music to Salieri.
Nightwind@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Well put, however I find code formatting itself has a shape, texture and smell. How the programmer weaves the patterns of formatting tells a lot about his mind and style.

Albino? There was an albino in my IT and the poor dude would literally be like 4 inches from the screen at all times. I guess that must be pretty close to his experience, yeah.
locuester@lemmy.zip 10 months ago
Yeah, I worked with an albino like that who used a handheld magnifying glass. It actually inspired me to write a magnifier application for windows (which didn’t have one at the time, this was in 2006). That then led me to write little windows apps every day for a month, which got a lot of attention.

This is a blessing. You won’t have to look at the spaghetti the last dev left behind.
xia@lemmy.sdf.org 10 months ago
With a good eye-tracker and some tweaking, this might be usable…

...and OLED screens the price of LEDs...

I use an LCD monitor so there is no difference in power consumption. I preferred the old view, how do I go back?

Alt + F4
thechadwick@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Just have to delete the system32 directory. That gets rid of the changed settings the fastest.

This should be a war crime

The animation that goes with this is pretty slick: x.com/Phantom_TheGame/status/1748457358521426375?…
tsonfeir@lemm.ee 10 months ago
Coincidentally, there are writing (as in fiction, not code) apps just like this.
BatmanAoD@programming.dev 10 months ago
Oh hey, it’s modern

laughs in IntelliJ multi cursor mode
Eonandahalf@lemmy.world 10 months ago
What…. Why…?!
Maalus@lemmy.world 10 months ago
It does get its uses. Mostly editing similar lines, multiple methods at the same time, etc. Makes you look like a ninja too
fsr1967@lemmy.world 10 months ago
If you have multiple similar lines, you can perform the same editing on them all at once.
BurningnnTree@lemmy.one 10 months ago
It should play a jump scare sound when you get an exception
floofloof@lemmy.ca 10 months ago
Makes a change from Visual Studio turning white because it has hung yet again.
BaardFigur@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Is it 1st of April already? Damn, time flies
stoy@lemmy.zip 10 months ago
Reminds me of when CodeBullet turned Pacman into a first person horror game

You have been eaten by a grue
trustnoone@lemmy.sdf.org 10 months ago
Does anyone remember when something like this actually happened? Maybe it’s the Mandela effect but U sweat at one stage a whole heap of sites were using black/dark mode to save the planet
SqueakyBeaver@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 months ago
I use it to save my eyeballs
SomeoneWhoIsntMe@lemmy.world 10 months ago
I kinda want this to be real…
fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Anti-peeking filter is looking dope! Nobody will be able to look at my screen anymore, me included!

Uh oh, brace yourself for a bunch of whataboutism from blatantly selfish computer nerds. /s

Hey man, I work on a Microsoft full stack — VS corrupts files or locks up regularly 🤷That’s before we touch Windows on a server box
HipsterTenZero@dormi.zone 10 months ago
From what i’ve heard of the game industry, being a gamedev is already survival horror.
