It's shameful that this individual keeps talking about making a better world for humanity and then he pushes for things like this. I always thought it was some scheme to launder money...

That's why those who "jUsT pAy PReMiUm" are at fault. These companies are just pushing the line to see what sticks, and you're perpetuating it by paying

During the peak of his fame I always thought this was a money laundering scheme from Musk. Only recently I've learned about the (not so much) theory that it was all an effort to screw with high speed train.

And yet this is probably good for reddit. They live on amount of engagement and you dummies just fell for it.

That's an overstatement. It takes a lot of work for some phones and you risk damaging it. Not everyone is able to do it even with the right tools. We need to have a solution so that anyone can do it

I really hope it burns to the ground. One of the most toxic dev "forums" I've seen. I made a point of never clicking their site when looking for answers even if it took me longer.

And full of telemetry

They can absorb large numbers of users and communities and after a while close themselves to the outside. Meaning that once people "need" those communities they'll have no chance other than go threads.

It was ironic that some years ago he was quoting Dune on Twitter. Either the message was lost on him or he was trolling..

I had this happen with a mid level guy (who thought he was a senior) with a cowboy attitude towards code. After many attempts to reason with him, I revoked his permission to touch the main branch and stopped reviewing his code until he started behaving. He left soon after.

In your case with a senior I'd escalate the situation to management.

My first thought exactly when I read the question. It's just another point of failure for the phone, using people's nostalgia for something that never was that great anyway

I hope the f not. Let's keep ISPs greasy hands away from the cool stuff please.

I was a hardcore emacs user for 9 or so years, then moved on to Jetbrains' editors, even paying for them, now I'm trying to move into neovim and loving it (only for non-work stuff for now).

Jetbrains editors have been great for me, stable and feature rich, specially in terms of debugging. The only problem I have is that they are quite the consumers of resources and power.

I used vscode for a while and what I found is that even though it consumes fewer resources than Jetbrains it also has way fewer features and fails more often. You can't do much customization or error handling besides setting some obscure json variable and good luck.

Now with neovim (and emacs) you can customize it endlessly (which is something I want) and have almost no resources used. The "drawback" is that you need more plugins working in conjunction to get the same features you'd get in the previous editors. Now, beware that things will fail sometimes for sure but you're in a position that can fully try to fix them, but will take time.

Take the upvote. For some reason you taking over his ideia this way made me laugh uncontrollably.

Let me just say that besides you doing a great thing you've put it so eloquently. It made so much sense in my head. You're having an impact on the lives of those cats. Thank you!

I think it's both. Corporate greed and people helping keep this up

I see your point

It also enforced that while I was learning I would avoid asking any question there.

Depending on the points I can see it with education and even with things like chatgpt, but IDEs? Ah this is a new one. How do IDEs just fill code for programmers? What's next? programmers use chairs that are too comfortable nowadays?

IDEs have boosted significantly programmers productivity.

Ubuntu on 1st year of college

You went there, generated content for them which is generating publicity. Other people, without ad blockers, are going there to see it ..

Glad to be part of this!

I would ask on reddit, IRC channels or read the documentation. I found that I rarely get an updated answer on stack overflow for my area of work.

You're wrong you can still have linux without GNU

That's every bigger software company. As my first job on a startup(ish) company we were 5 devs working on a desktop application and embedded software. This entailed working all the way up from firmware, to Linux distribution and higher level onboard software. After 8 or so years I went for a bigger company on similar market. They had 4 teams of 6 devs each doing a much worse job than we ever did. There was lots of friction and corporate bullshit. The only thing I felt didn't work out on smaller teams was customer support.

Not it's not. You should read about throttling down

Yes, because it's people like you and me developing AI ...
