... I remember thinking programming is amazing because everything is possible in it
in rust, nothing is possible34 -
Last time I was in Brussel and the train conductor made his announcement in dutch only.
This kind of thing is how you get a civil war. There are rules. Brussel is both, wallonia is french (except the german part but nobody really cares about them) and the flemmish country is dutch. Except the town on the borders (and also some others) who also speak both. There's also the part of flanders that's in wallonia close to limburg, but it's a part we exchanged against comines-warneton that is close to france.
Sp to go from brussel to germany we would have to go from brussel to flanders and then to wallonia, and then to germany. If the train guy speaks the wrong language the train company have to pay fines.16 -
Just checked the source code of our backend project with that tight deadline. So far, the backend consists of an in-memory database, 2 records and no API. 🙃
There is also no documentation on how it should look like 🤡12 -
HTTP/3 requires TLS. Wouldn't this make it drastically less economical to run a reverse-proxy? Are 4 unnecessary cryptographic operations per request not significant? What about the bandwidth overhead of rounding up the length of responses like `HTTP 200 OK\r\nContent-Length: 2\r\n\r\n{}` which make up a majority of all traffic to the nearest encrypted block?9

I left my previous company because the projects & expectations were constantly changing. Now this company, nobody has talked to both parties to manage the expectations of our product. I also have no idea what the expectations are even.
I mentioned it in the last meeting and some actions have been taken. They cancelled the meeting between the dev team & users (colleagues). One step back and 0 steps forward (:4 -
WarpCLI got me busy. It's not a replacement for r, but damn what is it intuitive. Instead of going like a maniac, it will ask you a lot. You're basically just discussing code all the time, one of my favorite things. It was not boring at all.
I made a scammer scammer. It'll be very naive and will waste a lot of time of scammers. Marcus is a middle aged man that does not know how the navigation of his Brabus works. I'm sure they want to help.
Result is here: https://retoor.molodetz.nl/retoor/...
It took ~2 hours to burn trough 5,-. 5,- is really a lot, normally i average on 1.50 per day and that's not even only my usage. Their subscription is actually just the same price as Claude. It also used Claude for this project. But yeah, they have a good deal with Claude, because I don't use the Claude API much because it's insanely rate limited.
This app is really worth a try, I am surprised. Especially because it let's you check everything step by step.
I knew this stuff would become popular, invented it seven months ago while working on r which is still my swish army knife.1 -
@jonathands was so nice to share coupons from WarpCLI and I gave it a try.
The system did literally exactly what I wanted. I just wanted to convert my `r` from c to Python.
That was quite the project, but it was all done within a hour. I still have to test a bit better though,
but if I look at the README.md it seems that it really found every functionallity it has. Readline support and stuff,
--stdin flag, a flag not to highlight, support for multiple LLM's etc.
While this was just for fun, see here details about how much the tool achieved in around a hour and how the colab went:
https://retoor.molodetz.nl/retoor/...
And it's cool that you can convert a whole project with your free coupon.
See https://retoor.molodetz.nl/retoor/... for the functionallity of this app.
WarpCLI vibe tool formatted another vibe tool, much older than him. But r was always ment to be small / a real tool.
WarpCLI comes with very sophisticated well listening model.
I actually have more that I want to convert. I wonder how good it is in wren :P
But a tool like this, that's probably how my future will look like as a programmer.
I mean, we just converted a few weeks work in a hour or so.

Oh, regarding privacy, they have network log, you can see precisely what is communicated to the server. It did read my bash history where i was a bit mad about but it does not seem that he sent it. Also he did not collect my env-file it seems. Still, will update everything tonight.3 -
Fucking finally beat that HR 30 Jin Dahaad fucker with my hammer build FUCK THAT ASSHOLE!!! There’s sweat all over my body. That was a long ass boss fight, never doing that again!!!!! FUCK YOU JIN ROT IN HELL.12

Who is whimsical, for some reason I vibe with him a lot. Such fundamental based quotes. So nice. I'm sure he's not a bot. (buy maybe becoming one :P).5

I really hate working on work that require constant reporting and decision making: I don't understand how people are olay with work like that. let me present 2 cases : for context we are working on a complete ui revamp of our app.
case 1 Screen A ui revamp.
task : change screen A ui as per new figma
me : evaluates, give estimates, make new screen by changing ui wherever applicable , adding logics for new screen wherever applicable , and removing old logics whichever not mentioned in figma. finishes a task in standard timelines
Engg lead : NO!! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE! WHY DIDN'T YOU ADDED THE OLD CHANGES/MENTIONED THEM TO ME! YOU ARE THE WORST DEV IN THE HISTORY OF MANKIND
case 2 : Screen B ui revamp
new eng trainee
- starts on screen
- ask doubts on how to make new ui box 1 on day 1
- ask doubts on how to make new ui box 2 on day 2
...
- ask doubt on whether to keep feature 1 form old ui on day 11
- aks the logic for showing box 3 on day 15
...
Engg Lead : UwU MY SWEET SUMMER CHILD. YOU ARE THE POWERHOUSE OF NEXT GEN. HERE TAKE THIS QUARTERLY AWARD AND THE KEY TO MY ****
wtf? i mean yeah i should ask questions if 9/10 changes are covered in the ticket and 1 festure is missed, but if you are asking for 2 changes and not putting 10 changes, why would i bother asking about the other 8? Its like asking for an apple from a farmer and then scolding him for not coming up with "5 sacks of green diced and cutted and packed in platic containers ready to be shipped" when he comes back with a single apple in hand. ASK FOR THE CORRECT THING!!2 -
A post with many thumb up reactions with different skin tones, of course counted separately.
👍6 👍🏻3 👍🏼4 …
Because apparently it matters who is agreeing as a white person and how many agree as persons with a slightly darker skin tone. 🤦♂️
This is so fucking dumb.66 -
Functional-Declarative languages should only be esoteric ones. They are interesting for research and a mathematical toy, but they should not be used for programming languages used in the real world.
I currently try to write OpenSCAD code that places a list of modules, with information given from an array, with varying sizes next to each other. And is so hard and cumbersome. Whoever had the idea to cripple OpenSCAD by not having variables was stupid or sadistic.
The actual CPU run instructions, one after the other, there is no good reason to not allow some imperative elements in a programming language.24 -
I've been debugging a bug for two days straight and I have only thing to say:
fuck javascript a piece of shit15 -
I googled "fuck apple" and ended up here... so yeah fuck this piece of shit company with shitty overpriced cancer inducing products. Xcode is the worse garbage I've ever seen in my life. For a company that masturbates to their superior design well they can eat a fat dick cause its horrible. Everything this fucking company does makes me waste my time. Add a fucking notch to their displays, retarded app store process, makes you workaround to install latest OS on older machines, hide options in convoluted interface, everything, make you feel like your 12 again and living with your parents. fuck them. fuck apple fan boys. fuck tim cook. fuck kids that jack off to iphones fuck you if you own a macbook and drink at starbucks . this is the last fucking ios app I ever make. bye40

I always put redundant parentheses in formula like ((b - a) / 2) + a because I just don't trust the compiler.20
