I do like being able to easily bundle properties and functions together. I think objects are useful if kept in their simplest form.

Though I think some would argue that not using inheritance and interfaces and such precludes it from really counting as OOP

It’s this mentality that shows you aren’t mediocre. Simplicity requires more skill, not less.

I totally agree on this. I found that often things that appeared to need inheritance at first glance often didn’t if I gave deeper thought to it.

Granted I was working on much smaller projects rather than crazy huge multi team enterprise apps, but I’d guess that even then this is a good “rule of thumb”.

migadu has a cool workaround.

instead of:
alias+user@domain.tld

you give:
alias@user.domain.tld

then internally it transforms it to an alias when it comes in.

Historically I’d say Emacs plugin system predates atom and sublime, and was certainly as impressive in its flexibility.

@scrubbles

Don’t worry it’s completely different now. Martha retired so now Mary Ellen sends the emails.

@Wizard_Pope oh yeah they do that for everyone. It’s a safety feature called puny code.

people were using weird chars to impersonate well known domains for phishing, so if you register a domain using unusual or mixed language characters it renders it as puny code to prevent spoofing.

@tourist @Wizard_Pope

after I discovered egyptian hieroglyphs have unicode chars bought 𓅃.com as a joke last year.

even better a friend bought
𓂺.com

Well hey at least React is known to be really secure with sensible package management.

Oh wait I spelled Rust wrong.

@VoidJuiceConcentrate @maris

Right?

pretty sure there are more possible chess positions than atoms in the earth (universe?), so even if every atom of our planet were converted to transistors there’d be no way to fully represent all possibilities.
