What do you imagine the backend is doing? Just providing a connection to a database somewhere?

I only use Windows for games, and I don't think its fine, which is why I only use it for games. And its like another commenter said - you also have to deal with Nvidia's trash application, all the game stores, Discord (which I sw

People that post all this sky is falling nonsense about LLMs seem to be working in some alternate reality where all developers do is produce simple code in a vacuum without any external inputs, needing to maintain it, expand it, etc.

I imagine they have pretty thick skin. There's a lot of dumbasses on the internet.

This is exactly why I'm so tired of these "can AI write code" think pieces. I assume people writing this crap aren't actual developers. Maybe its management fan-fiction.

I hope whoever was making the sandwiches used in that article has never actually eaten a sandwich, particularly that first one.

The bar charts in this article are bad. I guess because if they had normal axis you'd realize the differences are insignificant. Also if I'm reading this correctly, the more certs I list - the less I'll hear from recruiters

Something tells me you don't understand the difference between the bank, its shareholders, and its account holders. Unless you just think its peachy that a bunch of businesses lose everything because their bank made some actually not

I feel for people that spend any amount of time trying to moderate that place. I try going through triage and its just an endless sea of low effort shit.

Also really sad about LCM closing and just generally about the way it was handled by Vulcan etc. For computer nerds that place is heaven. There is so much to do, and its wild seeing systems you may have owned at one point - and getting to

My team develops a platform (data.rabbu.com) thats based in large part on Airbnb data and I swear its kind of ridiculous how much hate Airbnb gets on social media. Like for one thing - compared to the other options Airbnb is doing WAY more

Podcasts in the Spotify app drove me to try Apple Music. Apple Music has even more UX problems. In particular around their music podcasts/shows. Like Elton John has one called Rocket Hour. This may have changed but there was no way

Oh it will 100% show you even more podcast spam if you accidentally interact with any of it.

by jmuguy 4y ago
Assuming that app didn't suck, I'd actually use it. Instead of actively avoiding anything related to podcasts in the music app because as soon as you accidentally interact with any of the podcast content that triggers it to start

I get the feeling this guy isn't an educator or a parent. "Shorter school day: School days should be cut drastically. If parents need babysitting, let students play games together or hang out and pursue their interests under adult

I'm not sure what their particular beef with Vue is but I've been using it for several years now with Rails and its mostly been great. They had a similar issue as Python, albeit not nearly as bad, with their upgrade from version 2

I always laughed at folks complaining about the shuffler on arena simply because randomizing an array is trivial to implement. It seems unlikely they screwed that up. I believe the only thing it does is shuffle your deck twice and try to g

When I was younger I learned that loaning money to friends, and then asking to be repaid, sucks. You're made to feel like you're some sort of Scrooge character. Now I either simply give whatever is asked, and make it clear I do

I spend a lot of time online and I don't think I've ever felt the need to weigh in on incest. So I dunno, maybe other people aren't the issue here? Regardless - I wouldn't really worry too much about the opinions of peo

We use it exclusively for guard statements at the beginning of a function, and we keep it to a single statement per line return unless token.present? return unless user.valid? return unless foo = get_foo(user) Its extremely readable and eas

I think the simplest answer is - have at least a few friends or relatives that are tech savvy enough to help your spouse or whoever figure things out. Our house is a rube goldberg machine of IoT devices, VLANs, and servers with VMs and oth

Except Discord views that content as a problem and Parler views it as a feature.

If you fired 80% of just the developers at Twitter yeah you’re right, it would probably survive at least in the short term. That isn’t what happened. Entire departments serving all sorts of functions were wiped out. Hell you have adverti

My first paradox game was CK3, which I really enjoy. Victoria 3 has been pretty overwhelming but I'm sort of starting to get it. The UI has been difficult to understand. For instance I would like to see who all these "radicals&

I dunno, he seems to say at first that not naming whatever he is talking about is a bad idea. And then never names what he's talking about.

I've kept a PC for years now that I only use for gaming and its not too much of a hassle. There's still a lot of games that are PC only, and with a lot of major console games eventually getting a PC release I think the value is

Well are you pirating stuff? I've been using Plex for years now and so its mostly just what I know but when I first started using it the main things it did were a) handle codec issues (transcoding on the fly when needed) b) pulling me
