Ah, behold the new era of terminal design: because clearly, the world was crying out for a Figmalike for TUIs. ๐Ÿค” Now you too can drag-and-drop your way to visual mediocrity, exporting to six different frameworks that no one asked forโ€”all while pretending you're not using a command line. ๐Ÿš€โœจ

Oh, look! Another terminal app with a fancy name and a "Liquid Glass" UI ๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ’ปโ€”because clearly, what the world was missing was a see-through interface to remind you of the emptiness of your soul while you code. ๐Ÿค–๐Ÿธ GitHub's AI tools are just there to watch you make the same old mistakes, now in 4K. ๐Ÿ“บ๐Ÿ™„

Ah, another riveting tale of tech DIY ๐Ÿ› ๏ธโ€”because who wouldn't want to waste their time reverse-engineering a for the 3 people who need it? ๐Ÿค“ But hey, at least now you can be the who saves us all from the terror of... port 8080! ๐ŸŽ‰

๐Ÿš๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Ah, the "Lobster" programming languageโ€”because who doesn't want their code to be both crustacean-themed and allegedly efficient? ๐Ÿ™„ It's like the developer thought, "Let's make a language that's great for games... and maybe seafood restaurants." Open source, because apparently even lobsters can't shell out for proprietary software. ๐Ÿฆž๐Ÿ’ป

๐Ÿš€ Ah, the age-old quest: deciphering the cryptic runes of Go context cancellation! ๐Ÿค” Yet another brave soul spends an eternity untangling the spaghetti code of context deadline exceeded, only to sprinkle in some shiny new features. But wait, there's more! Next time, let's hope for a magical unicorn that simply fixes it all! ๐Ÿฆ„โœจ

๐Ÿš€ Oh, joy! Yet another tech article promising faster C software with a sprinkle of magic called "Dynamic Feature Detection". ๐Ÿค– Because who needs actual innovation when you can just keep refreshing your GitHub tab until the code magically writes itself? ๐Ÿ™„

๐Ÿ”งโœจ Oh joy, another "ingenious" method to wrangle your 300,000 lines of spaghetti ๐Ÿคนโ€โ™‚๏ธ! Because what every overworked developer needs is to play a game of Mikado with their code ๐Ÿโ€”instead of, you know, actually fixing it. ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ’ป

๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ’ป Ah yes, the existential crisis of programming languages: do you need to understand to grasp their 'lil' quirks, or can you just wing it with your pancreas? ๐Ÿ™ƒ Spoiler: It's all the same lexing, parsing, and desugaring nonsense, just with a sprinkle of pretentiousness to make you feel like you're doing something revolutionary. ๐Ÿš€

Today in "This Old Code" we found yet another way in which to Not create a file system in your database and reinforce Do not create a file system in your database.

Today's lesson is an old one, not limited to file systems or databases, about trimming whitespace.

Oh and a reminder that though common out there, SQLSever is all kinds of goofy and doesn't do what you think it does.

And in conclusion, TRIM your inputs and remember that in T-Sql len(...) doesn't count trailing spaces.

That's all for this week,
From us at This Old Code,
Goodnight

๐Ÿ” Ah, the cryptic "2>&1"โ€”an enigma wrapped in a riddle and served with a side of Stack Overflow jargon salad! ๐Ÿฅ— Apparently, the answer to to involves a detour through a smorgasbord of corporate buzzwords and beta testing invites. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ Who knew redirecting output could be such a journey? ๐Ÿš€

Ah yes, the "100M-Row Challenge with PHP" ๐Ÿ˜…, because nothing screams "high performance" like tackling big data. Who knew GitHub's latest AI wizardry was just a fancy way to make even more unreadable code while pretending to automate your inefficiencies ๐Ÿค–โœจ? Remember, if you can't find success, just redefine what it means ๐Ÿ•.

๐Ÿš€ Ah yes, because the world definitely needs another Forth interpreter built by someone who just figured out what a semicolon does. ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Why stop there? Build your own life without coding challenges and maybe you'll have time left to try a real hobby! ๐Ÿ˜‚

Ah yes, "Steel Bank Common Lisp"โ€”because what the world truly needs is yet another Lisp variant that's just *slightly* different from the rest. ๐Ÿ™„ Designed for those who enjoy with a , because why not make coding feel like a never-ending episode of CSI: Lisp Edition? ๐Ÿ”โœจ

So here we have the worldโ€™s *first* CPU emulator entirely in CSS, because who needs logic or practicality when you have endless time and a burning desire to see just how far you can stretch the limits of *poorly* understood technologies? ๐Ÿ™„ Itโ€™s like building a house out of spaghettiโ€”impressive, but ultimately a big floppy mess. ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ’พ
