TheDaver @buresdv.eu · 28/09/2026My experience is not that broad (I only know C and Swift, and some Objective-C), but I like how Swift does it It consistently places the type at the end of a declaration, so it's "keyword name: Type" for variables, and "func name(arguments) -> Type" for functions 021
TheDaver @buresdv.eu · 28/09/2026Mostly the inconsistency of the actual type annotations. Variables use the C-like “type variableName,” while functions use the modern “function(arguments): type.” 110
TheDaver @buresdv.eu · 27/09/2026PHP has to have the most bizarre type declaration system I have ever seen #programming #php 100

TheDaver @buresdv.eu · 15/09/2026Today I went to a pretty nice restaurant, and the waitress asked what I do. I said I work in IT She said she could tell, because every IT worker that comes in looks "tired and stressed out" Yeah #programming 000
Reposted by TheDaverCork: The Ultimate Homebrew Companion @corkmac.app · 14/09/2026You may ask, what happened to version 2.0.2? That came out yesterday and was release 2.0.1 recompiled for Golden Gate. But a merge conflict overwrote double-click handling, so I fixed that quickly.
