Qbittorrent, plex or jellyfin and if you’re into it, the arr suite for automation, all configured in a single docker compose file. It’s beautiful. But I don’t know if it’s as nice under Windows (if that’s what you’re using). For Linux it’s definitely super nice

Honestly, it’s been pretty good for me once I say “Hmm I don’t think this workflow works with this version”

I think the 4o model might just be better than 3.5 was at this.

“Manufacturers and tech companies have a bigger role to play”

Yeah Apple is already making the parts junk with the locking but it doesn’t seem to help.

I’m no conspiracy theorist, but if I needed to discuss anything legal, I wouldn’t want to do it near a phone. Or a newish car. Or a smart TV…

The list of things that could be listening to us if there’s a vulnerability for the 3 letter agencies to exploit, is ridiculous. And outside of phone and desktop operating systems, few things get regular secrity updates.

I’m seriously considering dropping everything and jumping to Rust because of Cargo.

Well if you’re into game dev, ECS and Rust, there’s like a 99% chance you know of it, but just in case you don’t: We have bevy, now with an extra full-time dev (Alice, who’d been working hard at it for years, I think she’s a bigger contributor than the author himself at this point lol)

I’m not a teacher, and I don’t want to become one tbh.

That said, something like Python is standard, and for good reason IMO. For OOP they usually teach Java here, though I’m not a huge fan. I think Kotlin would be better to teach nowadays. There are other OO languages of course, but I’m of the opinion that after messing around with Python, students should probably use something strongly typed, so that’s JavaScript out - I suppose TypeScript could be used, but IMO it’d be best to keep JS/TS in a web dev specific course.

That’s because C++ is such a high performance language, it gets things done faster

Would a surge protector be enough? I’ve never owned one, but I’ve considered putting my PC, router and (in the future) NAS behind both a surge protector and a UPS.

As always, I think regulated markets are the best - don’t go full planned economy, but don’t let corpos do whatever they want either.

Which is funny because if I’m ever in the market for a NEW car again, I’d gladly pay an extra grand just to not fucking be tracked.

Chrome cryptominer when

I’m hoping entire custom campaigns.

Back in the day, Operation Flashpoint, the predecessor of ArmA, had a mod community that built mods that came with huge new maps, new equipment and actually decently written campaigns. All because of the official mod tooling, which even came with tutorials.

Operating system so TrueNAS in your case

Eh when sales says “we made this” it means the whole company in my mind, not them stealing the credit.

Now we sales says “we’ll make this” is when you have a problem.

Battery degradation is ridiculously unpredictable. I’ve seen 100 cycle batteries at 75% and 2500 cycle batteries over 90%. I only dealt with like 5 MacBook models

Did you use a Handy to write this comment?

See on väärt oskus, meid on lausa tosinaid!

I feel like the popularity of the LAMP stack (or WAMP if you were just starting out your interest in software and hadn’t yet moved to Linux) in the 00s and early 10s is to blame here. MySQL ended up being the default choice for people who didn’t know much about databases.

Now that I know more than I did at the age of 14 when I first started learning programming… I’ll be honest, I’m still likely to choose MySQL just because it’s familiar. But at least I know what indices are now, and I try to avoid dependent subqueries :)

To be fair, I feel like I should use Postgresql more, I just haven’t actually ever worked on anything that needed the cool data types it has extensions for.

I thought Las Vegas was on Earth, but I could be wrong as I haven’t been there (to Las Vegas I mean, I’ve been to Earth).

Anyway, if you’re already building a tunnel, you might as well put a train in it, even on Mars.

They didn’t do it on x86 either I believe.

MacOS doesn’t throttle performance on battery like many Windows power plans do, that’s why

I know, but as a software engineer, I just hate reading through other people’s code and I don’t have time for tinkering anymore. Apple’s ecosystem is convenient for me and that matters more now. Used to care more of course.

Direct replacement for Cyanogen would be Lineage. There are dozens of decent ROMs to try though.

I still opted for iOS in the end. As much shit as Apple pulls, they did 6 year software updates when only flagship Androids got 3 and they aren’t generally trying to dominate the Internet.

Did you inherit the same project I did?

Did they also not use feature branches, API documentation, or any frontend framework, opting to create one based on jQuery instead?

That I believe is also roughly what the 1994 edit says

Youtrack is nice and can be self hosted but costs money beyond 10 users.

Family sounds more likely in this case. Two adults and three kids could be like 50 euros for tickets unless the kids are small enough to sit in your lap.

What’s with the fact that the model 3 is the only one to commonly get shortened when it’s also the one where the shorthand clashes with a car with way more history, the BMW M3?

The slippery slope is a fallacy only because there’s no proof things will go one way or the other. You can use slippery slope to say ridiculous things. E.g “if we let gays marry, it’ll be pedos next” is a good example of the fallacy whereas “if we let private corporations spy on us for a good reason, they’ll expand their powers to extract even more profit” is not, but either way, you need to know the context (which is that corporations serve to extract maximum possible wealth and have no morals).

Over time the 8GB of RAM on base model might start frustrating you. You’ll also be wearing the ssd with all the swapping.

The base M1 chip itself is great. Just get the extra RAM. You can’t upgrade RAM or storage after the fact.

I remember a long discussion about correlation vs causation re being a criminal and drinking beer

Fucking love the game, will have to play again.

17 a month. If the game has enough content and you don’t have a lot of time, you might end up paying more than you would by outright buying it.

Tell me about it, I’m a backend developer. If I write something, it’s going to be accessible via an HTTP request or CLI lol

Now I’ve also been given a project that’s got backend and frontend code all mangled together (Electron client with local API because reasons) and my first order of business is to see if they’ll let me hire a good frontend dev to help me decouple everything so I can go back to doing zero UI work.

The more freedom and content you have in a game, the more surface for bugs.

Back in the day there were guaranteed slots listed online for like spots 6-15 I think?

You’re just incredibly unlucky with your picks.

You can watch the Gamers Nexus video on the LMG for context. Steve highlights a lot of errors that they’ve made.

6 months half price if you sign up for 2 years.

Got it, sharing the password to my obscure furry midget porn collection with my people

Did you forward the ports? Some provide that capability but you have to do it manually.

Never been an issue for me to use closed ports on popular torrents though.

Do we live on the same street? I have the exact same issue with Google vs Apple maps
