IDE is typically the way you edit your code. Like "Word" but with some bells and whistles to make programming easier, like how word has spell check to make writing easier

#

Integrated development environment. A bit of a nebulous concept, the general idea, to my mind, is that it's a code editor with fanciness attached to make code development easier. Often there are things which will also run your code.

#

Are you doing Java?

#

SQL?

FYI, questions are inconclusive if it’s not a loaded one. You ask questions so you can receive a conclusion

even with nothing open 90% of my memory is in use

One day i decided to check my memory without opening anything and i seen 90% of my memory being used

#

And idrk why

#

what actually happens if you use up all your RAM, though? surely you have some swap?

gritty zinc
#

sure, why not? if anything, laptops pretty much always have SSDs.

lament cairn
#

windows enables swap by default but if it's on an hdd then it's far worse

Also i think it just crash the computer. Found that out when messing around with love2d.

anyway, one solution to your problem would be to move to a lightweight linux distro :p (windows 11 in particular is very weird to have on such old hardware)

my laptop had 4GB RAM 128GB SSD but I swapped it for 16GB 1TB and runs perfectly fine for everything I use

mind you I also switched to linux which helps

battery life halves if I use windows

costs significantly less than a new laptop, the CPU is only dual core pentium gold but my issue was just having multiple applications open

I thought you were talking about double negatives earlier

#

Are you going to answer the question

young shoal
#

not disagreeing is not not agreeing, and like you said, we should simplify

quasi blaze
#

Why should there be a negative connotation in disagreeing?

hearty violet
tardy rain
#

If your opinions often don't agree with others you'll be seen negatively whether you're right or wrong
Same way contrarian has a negative connotation

#

Disagreeing with people isnt whats important, sticking up for your opinions and not being exploited is

#

Making a habit out of disagreeing for the sake of it isnt healthy

#

in a debate, youre not trying to get the other side to agree with you
youre trying to get the judges/audience to agree with you

because agreement is positive

thats how you win debates

#

Let’s assume for a moment that there is a negative connotation. So what?

tardy rain
#

You'll be treated differently

young shoal
young shoal
quasi blaze
tardy rain
#

People might think youre a contrarian

#

Or that youre combative

#

They probably wont give you as many chances to explain yourself

#

Or the benefit of the doubt

#

Overall you'd probably have a hard time convincing people

#

harder* time

#

You might not care or you might have enough leverage to get your way anyway

#

Gotta weigh your options

#

For example, at work you cant afford to be disagreeable if you're fully, 100% replaceable

#

You can have your opinions and stick by them if the other side has something to lose with you going away

young shoal
hearty violet
#

u guys really need to stop "arguing" with keezy

quasi blaze
# young shoal my position being what I said. glad we can agree on this

Yes you made your premise in being disagreeable has a negative connotation but you didn’t provide a concluding statement on your premise. Therefore, I asked you if disagreeing was bad in arguments in order to seek for that conclusion on why you’re saying disagreeableness has a negative connotation. Understand?

tardy rain
#

It'd be nice if keezy actually wanted to argue

#

Instead he just name drops fallacies, tries to trick people into saying things they dont mean and then sneaks away when they wont fall for it

#

inb4 >strawman fallacy

vocal oyster
#

you are strawmanning my position

tardy rain
#

Nuh uh

#

Anyway since keezy doesnt wanna address my thoughts on why being disagreeable is risky i will just assume he concedes

so I just read books/articles and stuff while doing nothing at work

#

yesterday I spent all my free time at work writing and reading about typst for example 🤣

quasi blaze
tardy rain
#

But its still negative

#

This is an XY problem

#

What are you trying to accomplish by being disagreeable

#

There are definitely far more positive words to use instead

young shoal
#

consider "speak your mind"

#

also this isn't even the definition of "disagreeable" that you were using

tardy rain
#

Could also use strong-willed, resolute, adamant, steadfast, tenacious

#

All positive attributes

young shoal
#

real

quasi blaze
# young shoal irrelevant

Your claim is that disagreeable has a negative connotation so therefore, there should be an alternative

#

Did I steelman your position correctly?

young shoal
#

what

#

I literally gave an alternative

quasi blaze
#

“Speak your mind” is rather vague

young shoal
#

so is "disagreeable"

quasi blaze
#

How are you able to differentiate whether one is an agreeable person vs one is a disagreeable person?

young shoal
#

the advice is vague in general. it doesn't take into account the individual situation

quasi blaze
#

It’s not about individual situation. It’s about the individual personality

young shoal
#

huh?

quasi blaze
#

How can you determine whether one is high on agreeableness vs low on agreeableness with “speak your mind”?

young shoal
#

why would you need to

#

it's the wrong metric

quasi blaze
#

Have you heard of O.C.E.A.N?

young shoal
#

of course

quasi blaze
#

Okay so you know there’s a metric for one’s personality on agreeableness

young shoal
#

sure. but it's the wrong metric for this case

quasi blaze
# young shoal "this case" is this discussion

Universally, what word would you use besides “speak your mind” and “disagreeable” and that doesn’t have a negative connotation or less of a negative connotation then “disagreeable”?

quasi blaze
#

I would criticize that we have a limited number of interesting topics to talk about that doesn’t involve people getting so sensitive

#

My remedy for that is people need to learn how to become resilient and stop being shielded by a bubble to protect yourself from words that offends you

hearty violet
low chasm
# quasi blaze You never told me which section in the code of conduct it violated in

frankly, it comes across as misogynistic, which was the issue we had with it - if you're looking for specific sections, see the following:

  • Be kind and courteous to others
    • Using welcoming and inclusive language
    • Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences

We don't need to specifically list "misogyny" under our code of conduct to infract for it. The code of conduct isn't an exhaustive list of everything you can or cannot do, but it outlines the kind of environment we want to foster here.

I really doubt you could find any fluent English speakers who don't know that "un" means not or "re" means again

aws outage

thick osprey
#

the top five services I'd need to migrate were already in my head.

foggy jungle
#

We have an AWS bot that tells us when things are not... thinging.

#

Which is wonderful, because it is also the most active member of our chat.

thick osprey
#

I had a team put in a request for work for something similar. They wanted to route all AWS outage updates to a PagerDuty service so their on-call could be aware of the state of things. I wrote it. It lasted 33 minutes in production.

#

I was cackling the whole time.

foggy jungle
#

We have the same system. Occasionally you'll see an alert fire 8 times and the on-call person will just stare at Slack dismissing alerts for the next 15 minutes or whatever.

#

"Acknowledged by <blah>"

#

repeat ad nauseum.

#

One of my favorite parts about working with devs in my org is that I can see when someone pushes a fix that blows up prod, and then watch the chaos unfold in real time.

thick osprey
#

The only thing that I've laughed at harder than that with our PagerDuty setup (which I'm an admin of) was when the database teams ignored our advice.
us: "You want to allow the system to dedup and group your alerts"
them: "No, we need total awareness of all alerts. You don't understand."

I think it was just two days later a central control something went out. 600+ database hosts all screamed in panic. I'm told the on-call pager didn't stop for 40 minutes.

foggy jungle
thick osprey
#

odd but they called me the next day asking about deduplication and alert grouping.

foggy jungle
#

Yeah, what a coincidence. They must've went home, slept on it, and reconsidered in the morning.

thick osprey
#

Oh wait, there was that time that someone with access they didn't know they had created a custom alert on our metrics platform. They were looking for more than 1 message on a queue for more than 5 minutes for their tiny service which did like 1 message a week or something.

Yeah, they didn't scope the rule. I don't know the count of how many queues exist in our greater org but I do know they opened up roughly 1,500 incidents within three minuts.

#

First time I'd ever seen us get 429'ed at the enqueue endpoint for pagerduty. darkoLUL

#

Big companies are fun.

This reminds me of when one of our detectors went rogue and decided to just… flag every event on all 25M systems simultaneously.

"correct art" is a bit of an oxymoron in the first place, don't you think?

because it expresses something, how can expression be correct or incorrect? it's basically an opinion

Technically they said "[python frame] working knowledge"
Because "frameworking" doesn't make sense and there would be more obvious problems than numpy (numpy is pretty robust, so depending on definition of framework it could fit... Pycharm never)
I see this as "python ecosystem" + "practical (as in work practice, vs edu or personal projects) knowledge", just weird wording/translation

At least from the American standpoint, if your family has been here for generations, I don't get the fascination or obsession with heritage.

# quasi blaze To the native English speakers that don’t have an English ancestry: Do you still...

I'm a native English speaker, and I was born in the U.S., but my parents immigrated here from India. I do feel like I'm fairly connected to my cultural background, I grew up speaking my mother tongue, and eating Indian food, watching Bollywood movies, etc. we'd also visit family in India every other year. It also helps that I'm surrounded with a very large community of south Asians where I live, and so a large number of my friends have the same background I do, and we'd frequently go to events and get togethers. A third of my school is probably south Asian, lol.

#

A thing parents did when I was younger was refuse to respond to me unless I talked to them in our mother tongue (Urdu), which forced me to learn the language.
