Loving these 3 year old posts on the "Hot" view. (Not sarcasm, these are great)

It's like when youtube recommends a 9 year old video and all the comments are from the last month lol

@davidgro @AgreeableLandscape

Are you using hot or active? If you're using active it is because someone posted a comment, as it works via most recent comment instead of post date

They show up in Hot too. Probably because someone on this server loaded the post to make that comment, so it got imported to the server. I guess Hot sorts based on (score and) "new to me", not "new".

@Perhyte

oh that might be the case that it is new to the server. I didn't even think about that.

Enable "Show whitespace characters" master race!

Onlytanner@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 3y

Exactly. I only started doing this maybe in the past year and since then I've become so anal about consistency with my whitespace lol.

I do 8 spaces to make my code ultra-readable and to discourage too much nesting of things.

It’s easier to do Fibonacci indentation with spaces. https://imgur.com/gallery/JrSd8WS

I was hoping that link would have been an example of what that would look like
