"Telling a programmer there's already a library to do X is like telling a songwriter there's already a song about love"

Hab mal wieder gebastelt, nachdem Hilferufe von Schulleitungen kamen, dass sie immer noch keine Ahnung haben, wovon wir da die ganze Zeit sprechen... Deswegen gibt es jetzt die Seite "Schul-IT für Einsteiger" mit ganz einfachen Erklärungen und einer Übersicht der Dinge, um die man sich grob kümmern muss. Fehlt noch was?

Okay, maybe @davidak is right with my constant negativity about #nixpkgs and #nixos.

So maybe some "positivity" (is this a term?):

#krops is absolutely heaven-sent! It is a deployment tool for nixos based systems and I deploy my server with it. It uses normal nixos configuration.nix files and it can also deploy multiple nodes. With krops, you can make services on different servers dependent on each other in a declarative way. Absolute awesomeness.

Why does the substring() method in JavaScript do magic “argument swapping”?

It's existed since the original JavaScript 1.0 from Netscape (as rev-engineered by Microsoft). Netscape 4 briefly removed the behaviour with JavaScript 1.2 in June 1997.

But... that same month the misfeature completed standardisation as part of ECMAScript 1.

Thus, it returned with the release of Netscape 4.5 in 1998, and been with us ever since!
