I myself dislike seeing the same thing posted repeatedly to different comms, but that’s really a product of my 9wn browsing habits, and the fact that I’m too lazy to try out one of the clients that aggregates cross-posts. I’m not sure how the “official cross-post” function on Lemmy works, that triggers posts to be specifically listed as “cross-posted from XXX”, but I think that’s the best way to go about it.
I think we’re quite literally one step away. Currently, we have federal troops executing violence against state citizens and residents, in the form of ICE. Eventually, one of the states is going to deploy its own troops in response, to protect these folks, and we’ll have federal troops clashing against state troops. I think it’s a tough argument to say that’s NOT a civil war. Maybe depends how violent it ends up being.
No no, nothing like that. There just seems to be a baseline attitude in the blog post that monetization is the end goal of all OSS. Like, the idea that OSS developers deserve to be compensated fairly for their work, I fully support, but I don’t read that as the argument being made here. It reads more as “OSS is no longer a viable way to make money, so I’m going closed-source.”
There’s a big difference between being an adult and seeing everything exclusively through the lens of how it can be used to turn a profit for yourself or some other capitalist.
No shade at all on this guy’s expertise or work, or even the point about LLMs being made. But based on this I’d have to say this is not written by a software developer. This is written by a businessman in the software industry.
Clickbait headline. The marriage was rejected because the officiant’s speech did not include the legally-required vows that must be included regardless of whether ChatGPT wrote the speech or not.
This is just more proof that ChatGPT almost never knows what the fuck it’s talking about. Do we reallt still need more such proof anymore?
The simple answer is “for all the apps whose developers don’t publish a containerized image.”
This was the case the last time I tried to setup a Space Engineers game server. There’s at least one unofficial containerized image, but it ran like garbage.
5 Repeat until completion
What the fuck IS completion here? Just running indefinitely until the user manually kills the loop?
Glad I read the writing on the wall and stopped buying Logitech years ago.
There is 0 excuse for a mouse to ever need or use an internet connection. Period.
I’ll hazard a guess… OPAM was using a text-based utility to get the list of groups, and 33 is the point where the list would wrap to a new line.
No. Turning things into SPAs that should have been simple websites has been. Also developing SPAs in JS.
TL;DR; Some bit of Go (or at least a Go lib they’re using) coerces NULL time values to 0, so they added logic later down the data pipeline to check for 0s and convert them back to NULLs.
The full context of the problem definitely sounds tricky, like I doubt I would have realized it during development, but that little bit of data coersion logic is a HUGE code smell, for me. Never would have passed review, in my book.
The author’s takeaway seems to be “just cause you’ve fixed a bug doesn’t mean that’s the end of the story,” which is valid, but the far more important takeaway for me is “don’t compromise on best practices in data management.” Like, in this case, they had a data model that leverages NULL (to indicate a “don’t overwrite this field” scenario, and they fed it into something that doesn’t support NULLs. They KNEW about this, and papered over it with a lossy data conversion, instead of actually implementing proper NULL handling for this conversion, or changing the data model to not require use of NULLs.
Palestine + Ukraine = Anti-War
So, ML folls aren’t anti-war? Good tobhave that confirmed from the source.
The generator episode infuriated me greatly, yes. I still really enjoyed the show and am looking forward to more.
It’s kinda remarkable, because there’s depictions of practical engineering later on in the show that are very good.
Season 2 in particular ends with the best depiction of a particular theme I’ve ever seen.
Lovecraftian horror
Indeed it is! They added a ton of new, cool stuff in 1.1 in like…June? Including 2 types of Hypertube junctions.
Alternatively, buy the physical copy and just torrent a digital one.
How should I know or figure out things like this?? When there’s no error and I don’t know why it doesn’t working other than trying different syntax until it works!
A) MDN. Never use any JS API you’ve never used before without reading the docs on MDN first. JS is kind of a massive pain in the ass to work in, but dear lord, the MDN docs are just the absolute gold standard.
B) Set yourself up with a rudimentary TypeScript build process. Not like a full managed project under npm or bun or whatever the latest fad is (unless you’ve already got a project setup like this, I guess). Just write your source files in TypeScript instead of JavaScript, setup a .tsconfig file, and run a copy of the TypeScript compiler tsc to convert 'em all to JavaScript. That’ll eliminate entire classes of errors from your code, like your attempts to write to a non-existent .width property, for example.
If you’re not familiar with TypeScript, it’s built to be exclusively a superset of JavaScript. I.E. it’s just JavaScript with some type annotations. Really, the compiler is less of a compiler, and more of just a static analyzer that trims out the type annotations.
C) You should probably also look for a JS/TS autocompletion tool, of some kind. I’m not sure what’s out there in that regard, except for Intellisense within Visual Studio, since VS is what we’re given at work. But for someone new to an API, having it be discoverable right in your editor is a DX that can’t be beat.
Lovely, thanks.
So, this can’t just be a Hellsing Ultimate Abridged reference, right? There’s an underlying reference I’m just not aware of?
JFC, that is so much more horrifying than I was imagining. I have TROUBLE imagining a wave of molasses moving that fast.
