Don't look too closely at the code for tools you use.

Its 50/50 great or garbage. Great way to accumulate side projects...

That moment when you spend hours debugging, only to realize... the bug wasn’t in your code but in your brain. Yup, I initialized the variable outside the loop and wondered why it wasn't updating. Classic me.

Moral of the story: Sleep is not optional, fellow devs. Also, coffee isn’t a fix for stupidity, but hey, it keeps us going! ☕

I traveled back in time and broke the wieners, arms and legs off of all the ancient statues.

Edit: Second Baz here from the future, this joke will go down in history as the best joke ever written.

Edit: Third Baz here: Are you guys doing the time travel joke?

Gaming Influencers when they talk about "Frames Per Second".

Are you fucking stupid or something?

starting out with a couple coroutines to spare is literally the worst bad habit I've got from golang and that's a compliment. rust, for example, got my over engineering OCD thru the roof!

You know how each generation is taught more and more advanced stuff? My grandparents didn't have a clue about the the things my parents were learning at school. My parents could only catch up with my school course until like 7-8 class. Considering this trend we should have no idea about half the things our kids will be learning in higher classes.

However, since AI is taking its pace, schools are adapting and starting to use it for teaching, workplaces are leveraging it to rely on employees' brainpower and skill less and less,... I wonder if we won't see a downtrend. I wonder if we won't be the smartest generation who managed to ingest so much knowledge, and all the generations to come will only focus on mastering prompt engineering.

I wonder, how long will we survive with this dumbed down society... As the primal instinct is to overcome your opponent with greater force, possibly destroying it and everything around. And less educated tend to rely on primal instincts more.

I wonder if I'll live long enough to see Idiocracy [the movie] manifest in real life.

I know I refer to Idiocracy movie more often than anyone refers any other movie here. But it just hits too close to home too often. It might look like a silly something to spend time staring at, but man.. It's got one hell of a point

How do you guys get side gigs?

Quote from reddit is too true

If your company runs AI generated SEO for other AI generated advertising for SEO services that promote your AI to other SEO services- you might be snake oil peddling and if anyone looks twice at your company it will blow over like a solo cup on the back porch.

Da fuck is doing AWS redesigning the UI to a new style? It is even worse, what the hell is this new crap? They have a lot of unresolved stuff with their services but yeah... Let's do a new UI, as if the ones working with AWS would care about a "cute UI". Don't change the shit that it's working and we already know.

Really why using systemd ? Honestly, it sucks.

it's suuuper strange to see the world being run from fucking twitter

Russia huffing and puffing because Biden authorized Ukraine to use USA long range missile into Russian soil, and trump and his new cabinet are discussing how Biden and the Democrats are suicidal and scrambling debating about it all

just sooooo weird

and you just see posts of them like a damned entourage. like some frat house of billionaires traveling around the country to wrestling matches and having breakfast together and the weird story about Elon musk couch surfing on Trump's couch too much and the staff not liking him bossing them around. this is like a teen drama but it's your next government

lmao

I really want an AI that codes like me so I don't have to

tired of asking AI to brainstorm ideas but it keeps solving things stupid

please, get with the program. learn my style. it's better. stop shoving your style at me. neck yourself (I can say this right? it's funny and AI has no necks anyway! dark humor funny 🥺, but illegal merchandise 😔)

*coffee rage*

guess I'll have to use my own brain because it's literally less frustrating than reading its drivel that it keeps messing up despite me saying corrections a billion times. and this is one of the SMARTER AIs. eesh

guys can you make the tools better already. *taps foot*

your website is bad and you should feel bad. Inb4 I setup some kind of persistent script for this website in particular. Probably gonna be a necessary quality of life thing now that nobody can seemingly write any competent software anymore.

I asked why the lefties associate pepe with hatespeech and someone sent me this: https://youtube.com/watch/...
I'm somehow more confused

awwww this is cute: https://youtube.com/watch/...

is the world being run by 4chan now
I think it might be

Boring uses of artificial super intelligence:
- eternal peace and prosperity
- hostile world domination
- genocide

Fun uses of artificial super intelligence:
- ALL the paperclips
- time travel games where you can meet accurate behavioral models of your future self taking into account memories of this same encounter
- trolling alien civilizations by broadcasting assembly instructions for it

Satisfying my own curiosity #1:
Who here uses Vim/Neovim, and who doesn't?

I'd appreciate straining from discussions, ideally 1 comment per person starting with the name of your IDE (it'd make counting easier).

I talk to myself a little too often. It makes sense, given that overthinking is what keeps me employed.

I am good with that.

However, I've been finding myself in these 'thinking sessions' where I'm full on mouthing words and sometimes words come out and moving my hands around as if I am talking to someone in person.

It worries me, what if I enter one of these moments and never be able to snap back into reality.

I'm going crazy, aren't I

Satisfying my own curiosity #2:
Who here works in the video games industry?

As anyone, including visual, audio and mocap artists, etc.

I'd appreciate straining from discussions, ideally 1 comment per person starting with "I do" or "I don't" (it'd make counting easier).

I never expected embedded Linux to be this performant boot wise. On a Cyclone V HPS (800Mhz, Coretex A7) the entire system boots in 3s. Thats from power on to a shell in userspace. And it uses like 40MB of SD-Card Space. The entire speed gets throuwn out the window as soon as you use systemd. Then it takes like five times as long. I kinda want to explore this further in the future by addin LCD support with a desktop environment and get some numbers for that. Currently very happy with the results.
