Holy fuck guys, OpenWebUI generates previews of the pages it designs using HTML / CSS.

I vibed this whole Lumia (Nokia) WIndows Phone web component, just in the interface (shows after generating in video): https://devrant.molodetz.nl/vibe_de...

Guys, the designers can go HOME! Never liked them anyway. Potheads.

On top of it, it produces way better HTML / CSS than I do myself. WIth javascript some preference differences but that's it. In the end, i've refactored the code always like 80% or something.

The new snek update will be ratched! But will take a week I guess.

I'm so happy.

These are the scopes of knowing if you are stupid.

1. you know your stupid about some things.
2. there are things you don't know about, or that you are stupid about those things. but you can still conceive about these things as not known and that you may be stupid about them.
3. tailgaters, they don't know they are stupid and they don't have the ability to know they are stupid. also these are the people that took life science instead of physics in high school.

telling the health and sanity of a society by if they can still make music or not =-=

like how do you fuck up and release garbage, honestly. might have a good part but it's like... you didn't even see it?

reminding myself to calm the fuck down and just get this damn huge-ass feature implemented in this messy as fuck code base which is triggering me so badly.

One of our products we are supporting is selling so well. After 3 years, we are averaging 6 installs per month lmao

Before covid: everyone could become a friend!
After covid: most of people not.

That's what covid period did to me and thuw still affects me. Wish I could go back to the time that I was much more positive about general population.

But I know who to blame. The news and their polarisation. Never forget.

What they did was batshit crazy. I want to see people jailed.

They were not critical so they should not pretend to protect democracy. They were exactly when needed not doing their job and did spread propoganda.

I really pray, go bankrupt traditional media. Please.

I have to work with many people together today and I don't want to meet them. I don't want to leave more than 5km from my chalet unless skis are involved.

I spent hours fixing bugs, only to realize I was editing the wrong file the whole time.

Turns out main_final_final_v2.cpp wasn’t the one running. It was main_old.cpp.

I feel like the compiler and my brain teamed up to prank me.

As mentioned in a previous rant, I'm not super happy about available graphical (s)ftp options.

Tried the command line and honestly, it's better than anything else.

The concepts are simple, and the tools are even better IMO. Being able to `put *` from a folder is great.

The shortest rant ever that doesn't need any explanation: XCODE

turns out Canada drinks arabica coffee

I tried this instant robusta coffee mix and it made me so calm and felt like a religious experience. love this coffee and it does seem to be different from all the other coffee I've been buying to try to find something else that feels like this

well turns out the grocery store discontinued selling this specific coffee... so I can't even get more. and everything else they sell is exclusively arabica

AI says robusta has more caffeine and chlorogenic acid but I think it's something else in this robusta coffee. even if I drink more arabica it's not the same feeling. how mysterious

something else interesting is all arabica makes me pee a lot and dehydrate, but the robusta has no such effect. so mysterious

pls stop putting talking into music mixes. you're ruining my jive. I don't wanna hear your opinions. just play the math noises

Buuuurnout, the raaadio! I need the muuusic, give me some more! Yeahhhh!

Leg warmers! Jerry curls!
IIIIII want my MTV!

Doo doo doo doow... -going crazy-
Okay, I am officially going to take a break from studying for work outside of work.

I don't like Elementor for WordPress. The stuff it does for caching and performance sake causes hard to debug problems that the non-technical users it is marketed toward could almost certainly never figure out.

This really resonated with me. The last job I had before doing my work as a full-time independent freelancer had all sorts of infantilization strategies. Parties, nerf gun wars, big lunch once a week, etc. I'm introverted and all of that stuff sapped my mental energy for the day, so my productivity suffered. It's daycare for adults.

European hares and regular bunnies have nothing in common in terms of how they behave.

Hares will scream at you and attack you if you get too close. They're very fast and very agile, they even look like mini kangaroos. Sometimes they will open their mouth and jump at you full force, essentially using their body as a spear and their incisors as a spear tip. Their teeth are VERY sharp. Unlike carnivores' canines which are pointy, hare's incisors are flat like a razor's edge. They can totally bite your finger off.

They're big, strong and fierce enough to scare away foxes.

Just imagine dying of anaphylaxis all alone in the forest with no one to help you after getting bit by a not-even-rabid not-even-predator.

We have had a bad release a few weeks ago and my task is to propose a better flow. We just had a meeting and now I'm writing a document for it.

All I can think of them the big boss saying "looks excellent" and then default back to the old way in less than 3 weeks from now.

What absolute fucknut has come up with the idea to hand in reports in Figma?! I hope you choke on your vegan chai latte and die on the floor of some random starbucks.

I've created an xmpp based chat for ranters

xmpp:devrantchat@muc.xmpp.earth?join

why? because i can. maybe more people would start using xmpp this way, i dunno.

Yocto definetly goes brrrrrrrrrrr on a 7950X!!!!

BUZZ CUT GIRL REAL INFO:
Her name is Laurel. She's schizophrenic and severely autistic, so conversing with her is a challenge. She's the president of the Kiki Fan Club: an unofficial organization that is not what it seems. She constantly speaks in references to Kiki that Kiki herself doesn't understand, she quotes what Kiki never said, and she has pics of Kiki that don't show Kiki.

Kiki fan club is situated in a small room on the sixth floor of The Museum Block — an abandoned university wing.
She's good with tech. She makes devices no one can understand, but they do work. If you try to take a pic inside the kiki fan club office, your camera app will be replaced by DOOM 2.
Sometimes she tries to explain how her devices work, but no one can understand what she says.

Her hobby is injuring herself with acupuncture needles that give all the pain and none the damage. She likes to insert needles from the back between her ribs so they touch lungs, and then jump down landing on her chest.

Experimented. Made a websocket app. Compiled to nice single binary. Package management bit meh. Some std issues but it's soon I guess?

Am I late of early to this party?

Thoughts / experiences regarding this language anyone?

Had quick stuffed mushrooms with cheese and ham in them. Marked safe from self caused rapid explosions today.

Imagine receiving three basically the exact same reports instead of just one.

When releasing games on consoles, there are some rules for basic quality the games have to meet that depend on the platform.

Some of those rules align across all platforms, but are written down as different test scenarios.

Let's say, the game mustn't crash && tests are listed as:
- Company A: Test 0.
- Company B: Test 1.
- Company C: Test 2.

If a crash affects all platforms, the _logical_ thing to do would be to write just one report, mention all affected platforms && also list all requirements that are failed due to this.

Leadership: 'No, we need to create separate reports for each affected platform.'

Result: Only one report gets actual attention, while all the others are left forgotten, living as zombies.

...sometimes I wonder whether such people are paid per report, given their approach.

/* For some context: I am dealing w/ a multiplatform project built using one of the more popular engines, making vast majority of issues present regardless of the platform. Creating separate reports makes absolutely no sense.
They changed their mind solely after this being brought up by the developers, though. */

If you put Web3 on your resume, I'm rejecting you without even looking at the rest of your resume.

At previous company I had a side-task of helping out IT dept. w/ cataloguing of hardware for the testers.
The person previously tasked w/ this chose to use Google Docs, so I had no problems w/ expanding / updating the list.

Later on, a test lead of one of the projects had a bright idea of creating a copy of that list for their project.

After some time he approached me && started bitching about why I am !updating their copy of the list.

His reasoning?
- Because you're the 'list guy'.
- Because I'm asking you nicely to do it.

The exchange had been taking some time, but long story short: I stood my ground && basically told him to fuck off, given how it was _he_ && his team that decided to make a copy of the official list && I was definitely !going to accept the responsibility of additional work due to that choice.

Seriously. The fuck do these people think?

If he were to purchase e.g. an knockoff of an iPhone, the device broke down && he went to the Apple's repair center, they'd tell him to fuck off.

Which would be the right thing to do.

...fucking retards && their logic.

/* Also, it's always fun to watch people being ostensibly polite w/ their 'I'm asking you politely / nicely.' then demanding whatever it is they had been asking about, when they have absolutely no right asking for that thing, making _you_ look like an asshole. */

Just spent 5h figuring out why sending a serial command wont trigger in U-Boot. Was literally soldering wires to the boad, decoded the entire line with a scope, used several adapters, downloaded the firmware again and again over serial and USB-dfu and a looking for alternative boards online just to find out cutecom was set to send no LF after a command so U-Boot thought i was still typing something. This is literally the semicolon joke you see splattered over normie coding memes.

How is FBX the main format of blender when it is so damn bad

For the last 10 minutes I have tried exporting a model as fbx so that it has the same scale and coordinate system as in blender. That's literally the only job a model file format has to do

I still haven't managed to do it. How can a model format be this frustrantingly bad???

Why has nobody built an actually GOOD (s)ftp client yet? It's sort of crazy that Filezilla is STILL the first result on google (my AV correctly identified the installer as adware because it has by-default-enabled adware downloads) and then the next is windows-only.

I almost wish there was a nicely made Electron app (or - much better - qt) just so the UI could be fucking acceptable.

Is it time for me to start my next unfinished project??

You kill beautiful just because person beautiful I kill you for weeks
