  • The nutrition score is a german thing that our nestle lobby minister pushed. Its worthless because it compares the products in arbitrery categories with each others so a nutri score of A on sweets just means that these are the “healthiest” sweets but they are still far worse than something from another category that has a “lower” score. The worst thing is that the categories are weird sometimes so two products that you would think are in the same category sometimmes arent and you cant compare them withoud looking at the category on the package every time.




  • Ahh ok yea i also do some terminal shenanigans most in gdb to fix all the segfaults i make, git stuff and reading tons of compiler and cmake errors. Most time is spent thinking about what i broke and how, instead of typing.

    I am a electrical engineering student in my last semester but i have been working at my position since starting uni. So my work is more low level stuff wirh c/c++, embedded linux and some pcb layouting. I dont think that i would ever use vim, sublime or vscode/vscodium is the sweet spot for me.


  • Ok but what is your job then? I do software development and in no way would it make my work faster if i can type 2 more words a minute because i dont type that much. Most time is used to read sourcecode, chassing references through the codebase and reading api references in the browser. If i have to do more hardware related stuff i would never want to use a keyboard to scroll through datasheets.
