Mine‘s getting so accustomed to cold showers that I a) absolutely do not mind cold water for swimming etc. anymore and b) could not enjoy warm or hot showers anymore. They just weren’t nice at all.

In visual studio, a program for software developers, one of the type of templates you can start up and make a program with is in "blazor webassembly". One of Microsoft's fancy new things.

In there, right after starting it, there is some example code thrown in your face. Code that contains pi... with a rounding error.

So I, being the insistent autistic nerd I am, made a pull request and had it fixed. And I still wonder how so many people looked at that and it bothered absolutely no one enough to go and fix it.

We truly live in the future. You opened a PR for a Microsoft product.

[–] Boomkop3@reddthat.com 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

A petty, nerdy, unnecessary pr.

That's how we as species approach perfection :)

Oo, me too. I added a feature for submodules in their git implementation for VSCode. I have contributed to tons of the FOSS software I use, feels good to give back.

[–] oldfart@lemm.ee 1 points 2 weeks ago

Sounds like a big feature, was it a lot of work?

[–] captnanonymous@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

Definitely add to resume.
