I'm actually looking for a model that is able to create old school pixel art (like 90s style, games like Sierra and so on). But to this date, I haven't seen anything yet. It all reeks of "AI slop". Maybe this is a good t

How does it compare to the Samsung flagship phone cameras? I have to say I was impressed by the Samsung cameras, although being Android based it's not really an option for me. It'd be like trading a Porsche 911 for a Pontiac Aztec

It could help people. It's possible the sigabrt didn't even care to Google about Healthchecks.io before I decided to vibe code his own. Also, what do you really think the odds are that sigabrt.dev will still exist in 2 years from

Yes, I chose EGA. My bad. That demo must be run with CGA.

Will this become a trend? When the client asks you for an architecture diagram, you respond with a 3d world.

You mean, like this? https://imgur.com/a/pmtihO1 That's a user error, you simply had "This Mac" selected (preselected) instead of narrowing scope to be Applications.

Java can still be used but it's no longer the recommended choice for Android apps. For any new Android apps nowadays you start with Kotlin and Jetpack compose (made by Google). In fact, I think Google's been saying this for 6-7 ye

This is such a clueless take, and I see it surprisingly often. Declarative UI does not inherently mean virtual DOM nor does it "automatically" mean slower than UIKit. The abstraction is huge advantage, especially when targeting d

Also a solid combination for LLM assisted apps. Claude Code will just get it. It's good with Tailwind also though.

This is one of those 'hey, I can vibe code this in a weekend' projects. Just look at how the AI decided to the entire map in dark mode, making it nearly impossible to tell the ocean and the land apart.

Haven't properly burned myself yet. I've just avoided books based on skimming through online or in bookstores. Some had pretty clear telltale signs of AI slop (although usually quite subtle). At his point I think that one has to a

It's better with properly published titles but even those writers are increasingly using AI and leaks into their works.

I think people still read, but the problem is largely that people read older literature, meaning anything older than 5-10 years at the very least. People are very hesitant to read something recent because it may very well be AI slop. It&#x2

Seeing that you already know programming, I'd say it'd be less risky for you. But the only reason you're able to pilot an LLM to do programming for you, is because you understand programming and architecture. But what about t

Back in the day people used to build a website without any versioning. Just make it and upload it. Make a change, upload it again.

How was Baghdad like in 1993? All I remember from that time was the Gulf war, Saddam and much conflict. I can only imagine how it would be finding hardware, books and resources such a time. That was hard enough even in parts of Europe.

ifconfig(8) is meant for low level stuff. What Linux did was replace ifconfig with another low level (e.g. ipconfig2), which makes more sense there I suppose. But don't get the impression that ifconfig is the easiest way in macOS on th

When I did LAN parties we had 10base2 over thin coax. Terminators at each end. Of course it was unstable because people kept disconnecting and everyone lost connection.
