The bonus for vapes is you can wean off nicotine at a super precise rate. You can mix your nicotine juice with more and more non-nicotine juice to achieve greater and greater levels of dilution until the nicotine dose you’re taking is so low that it doesn’t matter to stop.

Different legislation in different places. My country banned flavours, but they still sell disposables somehow.

The first thing you described is literally what we used to have. God I miss the good old days of vaping.

YouTube music used to be good when it was Google music. But i think the app has been improving YouTube music is becoming better.

Or an enthusiastic yes.

Do you mind if I use your ___? Yes! 😊

Oh yeah. Peak reddit years lol. Before the corporate enshittification.

Lemmy is good fun though, I definitely appreciate it.

Remember on reddit when we used to upvote an image with a completely unrelated word because we thought it’d be funny if the image popped up in a google search?

Almost as if the people in charge of oil and coal and such want us to be fighting about this type of shit…

I hear ya. As always, it’s a balance between having functions that are too long, and many too small functions. Matter of team preferences too.

That makes sense.

You make some great points. Using smaller functions and breaking up your code in readable bits makes a huge difference and you will likely never need comments if you do it right 👍🏻

I understand what you’re saying and I mostly agree, but those few instances where a line of code is only slightly different and the comment is the same, can really be confusing.

Sorry plebs, I’m using a real computer. Unlike you losers using phones!

P.s. try ctrl+scroll wheel to zoom ;)

It’s not that deep. It looks nice, and is easy to understand.

Yes- exactly, they make comments wrong. But comments aren’t always a waste of time, like in legacy code, or just in general code that isn’t gonna change (mathematical equations too)

Fair. I guess in this case, it’s a manner of gauging who you’re working with. I’d much rather answer a question once in a while than over-comment (since refactors often make comments worthless and they’re so easy to miss…), but if it’s a regular occurrence, yeah it would get on my nerves. Read the fuckin name of the function! Or better yet go check out what the function does!

I mean, boolean short circuit is a super idiomatic pattern in Javascript

Yeah. I advocate for self explanatory code, but I definitely don’t frown upon comments. Comments are super useful but soooo overused. I have coworkers that aren’t that great that would definitely comment on the most basic if statements. That’s why we have to push self explanatory code, because some beginners think they need to say:

//prints to the console
console.log("hello world");

I think by my logic, comments are kind of an advanced level concept, lol. Like you shouldn’t really start using comments often until you’re writing some pretty complex code, or using a giant codebase.

I hear ya, cool opinion.

Joking aside, I get it. Art is art. I respect it. Doesn’t change my opinion that the comic doesn’t add to the message. But I respect it.

I’m not sure I follow.
