"No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want. You got to pay. You got to pay your bills.”

This is a level of hypocrisy... I just cannot

My feeling is that AI is the new solution looking for too many problems to solve. I had the same feeling with microservices, big data, block chain, NoSQL databases and all those other hype driven development things. Different products and solutions exist to solve their respective problems. I notice that AI (notably since ChatGPT and related) are pushed in all directions.

Torx is the king of screws, change my mind :D

I just waited for 2 light-years at the doctor's office.

This is extremely helpful!! The filters are arcane and it really helped me out with something :D

Take this advice, especially if you are just starting with Linux. You can also install it in a VM if you are still running Windows, to get a feeling of different desktop environments (Gnome, xfce, KDE, etc) before choosing.

Because it's a statically compiled binary, it tends to grow the size of the binary. Increases portability though.

LaTeX has a steep learning curve, but using anything else for documents is like stone knives and bearskins in comparison.

Have you seen or tried "typst" yet? It's a modern alternative to LaTeX. Haven't tried it yet but looks promising.

Try Flameshot for screenshots! I bound it to my printscreen key.

I figured it's more like evil that resides somewhere. Like "there is a resident evil in this house", a presence. Then again I'm not native English so what do I know :)

Edit: nevermind, I misread your comment. Yeah I don't reckon they are necessarily evil.

You wasted three hours so you can share this knowledge :D

This is great! How would you describe your experience creating this template? I've been wondering about porting the modern-cv template from LaTeX myself.

I've had so many Phillips screws going bad because of slipping screwdrivers. I've never had this problem with torx ones. They fit, or they don't, there is no middle ground, if you catch my drift.

Fish shell has this built-in with Ctrl+R :)

I just wished Joplin would store notes as some kind of plain text, like Obsidian does. I've also been trying out AppFlowy, which looks kinda promising (and Foss), but it stores notes in a db as well.

I'm on my second playthrough. It's the very first single player game I've ever played twice in a row, just after finishing it the first time :) I wanted to play the bad guy but couldn't do it. I love the companions too much to be evil :)

Wow I forgot I once made a DragonBall Z skin for winamp. It's still there :D Blast from the past!!

What's wrong with TOML? I personally think it's great for configuration purposes.

Yeah same! I tried to romance Shadowheart but when she wanted to kill you-know-who, I had to fight her :( And yeah second playthrough I knew the mechanics better as well so the acts were more of a breeze than a hurricane :D

As a plus side, I noticed I missed some areas and quests, so that was nice too!

Axiom Verge 1 is a great metroidvania. I also tried 2, but it didn't click with me at all. Cave Story is great as well. Dead Cells, but that's more of a rogue lite game. Binding of Isaac is also one of my favorites, but it's a top down rogue like.

Thanks to my experience, and other lead devs leaving the project, I'm sort of "pushed" in this role. I'm not sure if I like it or not. Sure they see value in what I can do, but it's also more responsibilities and more meetings. I always liked it to go with the flow previously :D

Java has gotten me lucrative jobs and I make a more than decent living thanks to it. And I bet I am not the only one.

People should stop hating on languages and just use what's right for the job. I am no fanboy of Java or anything (I program in multiple languages), but saying it should die already is a weird take, IMHO.

The language Java has nothing to do with the JVM. Use OpenJDK (temurin or the likes) instead, although I understand if you don't have the freedom to do so.

Nonetheless, the suing part is damn stupid.

I'm no musician or whatever, more a hobbyist regarding that. I've used lmms to compose some tunes. Is Bitwig somewhat comparable?

I've only played Overwatch 2. Why is it regarded as inferior? I've had fun playing it so I don't really know what the fuss is about.

My go to hack was quickly running a python http server and connect to it. I can't remember what the command was exactly. Something like python -m http.server or so, then connect to the ip from my phone, heh.

I've been trying out Helix as of late. It's a bit different than vim, but I'm beginning to like it.

The borrow checker is a cool, unique thing to try out though.

Although... In Rust you don't try the borrow checker, the borrow checker tries you :)
