  • I’ve started to become 2) for some stupid reason.

    I use btrfs snapshots to backup my system, and it has the side cost of needing a bit extra space. This is absolutely fine.

    What is not fine however is free desktop/Nvidia flatpaks update. I get 10gb every week, and it keeps filling my disk with this stupid crap.

    Not only that I am both a rust programmer and blender artist, and it’s the trinity of non deduped disk space filler









  • It’s not that bad. It definitely helps in long functions.

    I’m an advocate for code commenting itself, but sometimes it’s just better to comment on what you’re doing, and in those cases it helps to over commentate.

    Instead of letting the reader interweave code reading and comment reading, I think it’s better to do either. Either you go full self describing code, letting the reader parse it as code,m, or you abstract everything, making it more of an explanation of your reasoning, and abstract lines that may look too complicated.

    Not every comment needs to be useful, but I still write them to not have this switch between reasoning and thinking in code. It can also double as rubber duck debugging too!
