Best language, suitable for all but the most low level stuff where you don’t want a garbage collector. For that use Rust.
C#, Rust, and maybe just a minimum amount of JavaScript, and I didn’t think you need anything else.
The worst part of C# is that sometimes Java devs sneak in, but that happens in every language.
You can just have things be out of scope. It’s really okay!
Thanks for the work you’ve put into this.
lol, it didn’t fit the mod’s narrative.
Good idea with the spread these days.
Don’t get complacent. The EU countries are toying with the idea of collapsing with us. AfD doesn’t seem to be shrinking, and there will be a lot of money and propaganda dumped that way soon.
I hope you’re better at resisting it than we were, but seeing as how we’re all still on vulnerable social media…
The latest Libreoffice update has ribbon menus (optionally).
It works well when you use it for small (or repetitive) and explicit tasks. That you can easily check.
Which is probably a good thing. I appreciate projects like Thunderbird as well.
You can not push the button that says AI.
You can also hit the kill switch that completely removes that button.
That’s opt-in enough.
If it starts reading pages or doing things without you pushing a button, that’s an issue.
I had the choice when buying a new PC to go with single threaded 64-bit or multiple cores. Particularly for gaming, I figured a single core was all I really needed, and 64-bit was the future.
The correct choice at the time was multiple cores. Everything going to 64-bit wasn’t going to happen until that computer was long dead.
Yeah, nuance exists. Weird, I know.
They could, actually. I was there, in the olden times.
Not efficiently, of course. And these days it’d be a disaster. But it was possible.
I’ve been banned from plenty of subreddits and things. Generally it involves going into a circlejerk and telling them something they don’t want to hear.
r/conservative, r/antivax, r/Tesla, either of AI or anti AI, whatever.
The corp doesn’t get the tax break either way.
You only get it if you claim it (in the US), of course. Nobody is tracking that for you.
The corporation does not get a tax break.
They get the PR, and they get some leverage over the org they’re donating to. But, you know, the leverage is that they stop collecting money to the org, so if you refuse to give in the first place then…
It’s better to give to the charities of your choice without needing some other corp to effectively advertise and collect for them, but that seems unlikely. It probably is helpful that someone is out there advertising. It may be worth making that deal with the corp.
Why is it anyone’s business if he’s a virgin or not?
That was painful to watch for many, many reasons. The commentary, the interview questions, and of course the answers.
Do yourself a favor. If you already know Fuentes is a self-avowed Nazi, don’t give that video attention.
How do I put this.
AI isn’t exactly the cause of the rise in the price of hardware. Only 1/6th of the purchased Nvidia cards are actually in data centers. Same for the memory.
We’re not using it.
What’s really drumming up all the prices is that the billionaires are convinced that AI is going to replace tons and tons of people. It’s not. It’s the insane corporate hype that’s doing all the damage.
It will replace some, sure. The same way the electric drill replaced carpenters. One electric drill does not replace one carpenter. That’s not how that works. Instead the carpenters can work a bit faster and their job is a bit easier. It’s worth buying and it’s worth using, but it doesn’t really replace a person. Accountants didn’t disappear as a profession when spreadsheets were invented.
There were books written in the 1980s about how household appliances raised the standard of cleanliness. Turns out people change clothes more when cleaning clothes doesn’t involve a washing board. And I don’t think Roombas replaced that many jobs either.
In particular, I think this is a thing that will happen for software development. I don’t think it’ll reduce the number of developers we need. I think the standards for development will just be higher. All the front end stuff in particular is going to get easier, and you won’t need as many frameworks. We’ll especially need just as many devs, if not more, in the short term. Someone’s going to have to fix the mess all these companies are going to make after they’ve fired half their devs and tried to just vibe code everything.
Because AI in this case is the opposite of help, in case Illecors wasn’t clear enough.
I skipped a game or two of League of Legends last night because I didn’t want to reboot into Windows. Played some Rocket League instead.
