Hacker News folk wisdom on visual programming – drossbucket

3 septembre 2024 à 13:53

This is one of the things I genuinely appreciate about Hacker News.

At least in programming some chunk of it makes it into forum posts. It’s normally hidden in the depths of big threads, but that’s better than nothing.

"We ran out of columns" - The best, worst codebase

When asking our resident shaman (who went by the name Munch), he informed me that when the calendar runs out we can't login to the system.
