  About IPs or URLs?

  IPv6 is quite complex, but not that complex

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are there so many graybeards in FOSS?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The problem the article highlights is not the considerable amount of “graybeards,” but the lack of everyone else.

  to have a bigger part of that pie, then have more of them jump in.

  The problem is: how?

  I personally enjoy working with open source projects because I like making code to help other people. But, apparently, that’s not enough of an incentive for other people.

  Or, of course, they don’t have the time/resources

  It may not work directly, but there’s always a way to misdirect it, like a vm!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you approach learning a new programming language or framework?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  rebuild stuff

  I’ve remade a temperature converter cli 3 times in rust. Just to understand enums, structs and the borrow checker. Then I made an http server, that acted as a library’s book borrowing system.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some common misconceptions about programming that you'd like to debunk?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  thank you very much.

  By undefined I meant the usage of undefined in the language, however you phrased it way better :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some common misconceptions about programming that you'd like to debunk?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s what I hate about javascript, it doesn’t warm you about undefined behavior, it just throws.

  I used to not really care about that, but after learning C and Rust, damm, I wish there where result types everywhere

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What got you into coding ? (aside from money)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I loved math, so a friend of my mother said I could make the computer do maths for me.

  6 years later and I’m still amazed computers do what I tell them. And now that I work with this everyday, I’m even more amazed anything works at all.
