@kuron It's interesting how we've gone from ''programmer''/''cod er'' to ''developer''A ''developer'' can be asked to do anything at any time and the domain is unbounded by the employer. In a sense, they can expec*snip* |

Learning Java ... I guess13th June 2025

I'm just glad to have a shot at a job. My team got killed during post COVID layoffs.Never thought I'd be doing Java but you do what you need to survive and stand on your own two feet I guess. I'm not really scared by the size of Java, a lot *snip* |

Anyone try Forth on your retro machines?12th June 2025
I keep wanting to make time to learn Forth but damn, where is the time these days!?Also available on quite a few 8 bits with some swapping the Basic ROM for Forth. Seems like an excellent fit for the Spectrum. ;) It's cool that it's interactive*snip* |

Supporting Modern File Formats12th June 2025
Hehe ImageMagik has a really bizarre inconsistent nasty interface. It kind of wants to be a programming language without being a programming language. |

Future of Blitz12th June 2025

Flavoured Pickles10th June 2025
I wonder if it was a proper ''Koolickle''? I accidentally bought some sweet pickles and I usually get kosher dill. These are awful I don't know how people eat this stuff - very gross flavor with a taste of clove or something... |

ChatGPT acting weird?9th June 2025
It's gone through various phases.At one point it was overly critical. Then it became too casual. Now it's treating the user like a genius. My guess is that they're trying to tweak the human element of it all to get the most buy-in. |
