Do you think the quality of your talks with someone can be measured by the amount of contradicting ideas you each raise?

I sometimes find my conversations with someone just reassuring of each other's ideas

From my point of view, the quality of a conversation depends on how clearly and organized you express your ideas. Agreeing or disagreeing depends on the other person's perspective, which I can't control. What I can control is how I deliver my ideas, making sure they are clear and easy to understand. This helps create a meaningful and productive conversation, even if we have different viewpoints.

😂😂see...this is what i call a good conversation...u didnt fully accept my idea

till i can afford a mac🤣🤣

Story of my life 😁

This song was created by AI and prompted by a friend. The prompt... 'a club song about programming'.

Deployed my first backend. It feels gud honestly😁😁. It's for a project I was given in my Internship to help me be familiar with the tech stack before diving into real codebases uk😊.

The project is a Yellowpage for Ethiopian businesses. You don't know what a yellow page is..? So basically it is a book that people used to use to find everything from pizza places to doctors, but now we have the internet, which is way faster and more convenient.

And I deployed everything for free. Here is everything I used, if you are curious.

- Frontend : Netlify
- Backend: Koyeb
- Database: Aiven

Internet is back !!

Have you been exhausted to navigate through your command in your terminal? like you want to search for a file named myCorner.py since it is the file that you write that script you will never use, but you don't know where it is so you use your beloved terminal and . . .

find . name "myCorner.py"

oh, now you notice that you forgot to add - before name. What do you do? Do you delete the whole command and write it again correctly or do you navigate with the arrow keys like <-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<-<- (18 times) 🤣🤣🤣...and add -.

After a lot of times doing both the former and the later depending on the command length. I was like, there has to be a command-line vim mode. So, I searched and surprisingly I got the one and only [zsh-vi-mode] that does pretty much what i want. vim motions when I am writing commands. Isn't that great?

Now I can do shift + b + b i then write -. See how vim-motions make everything easy. You should try it too !!

This is what I literary did today. Can you spot the typo? Yeah, postres

sql-studio postres postgres://postgres:****@localhost:5432/ethyellow

shift + b + b c i w then write postgres

Footnote
- shift + b -> go back until you get a space
- i -> go to insert mode
- c i w -> delete the entire word and go to insert mode

I highly encourage you guys that you learn at least vim motions. I use them inside VS Code every day.

😁😁 and of course g in postgres is not a real g because . . .

Why is it Windows Subsystem for Linux aka WSL and not Linux subsystem for windows. I am confused here.

I am not alone 😁. Here is a good discussion about it. Some responses I like are:

1. It makes sense as "A windows subsystem for Linux". Unfortunately, dropping the "A" makes it ambigious.

2. Microsoft has a tradition with these confusing backwards names. They used to have a product called Windows Services for UNIX [1] which was, you guessed it, UNIX Services for Windows: NFS, Telnet, cron, rsh, etc.

3. I have an English degree and can confidently say the issue is the implicit understood possessive in the correct parsing. As it stands, “for” dominates mentally because the phrase obviously needs a possessive to make sense and “for” denotes possession. If it were “Window’s Subsystem for Linux” or “DOS’s Subsystem for Linux”, explicating the proper possession, the parsing trouble would disappear.

The last one was what I was thinking.
