Cosmetic bugs such as typos are not even worth making a PR about. I just fix them on the fly.

This is the brave new world. AI gets to do all the creative and fun stuff, while humans are left with the tedious task to clean up the mess AI has done.

@AlgoRythm

Killing myself would hardly solve the problem. Heaven is run by a highly moderated LLM, ruling out all the fun like binge drinking and full frontal nudity. Hell is already overcrowded, and littered with ads for Tesla.

@D-4got10-01

Neither was I.

I'm saying like Chat GPT, "My apologies for the misunderstanding." :)

@D-4got10-01

It's a small country with small companies and IT departments too small to be divided into devs and infra/support. I've worked at four of them and it's the same thing everywhere. At least nowadays we have an infra team: When I started here we were not only fullstack developers, but allround "computer guys", running around supporting users with all sorts of braindead stuff like installing software, replacing batteries in cordless devices and editing AD. That sucked! Nowadays we have dedicated infra, and they are good at that.

@D-4got10-01

I am working at the IT dept. In my country devs and infra are both IT. Anyway, yeah, I'm already friends with the infra manager, but our company is rather conservative and stuck with M$.

At work I can't install any software of my choice so I just have to put up with all that M$ bullshit.

@Wisecrack

I agree that most people are retards :P, but I do *not* agree that all democracies would be fake. In an increasingly corrupted world, Nordic countries still stand out as relatively genuine and democratic.

@AceDev

I strongly disagree. What you're suggesting is little-endian, i.e. the least significant value comes first, making it impossible to make any sensible sorting on the date, provided that all reading/parsing/sorting is performed from left-to-right. having date first and year last is just as logical as having a decimal number format where decimals come first, e.g. 50.122 instead of 122.50. Plus it's inconsistent. As yyyy means a year from left to right, e.g. 2025 (and not 5202) it wouldn't be properly backwards neither, but an unreadable mix of left to right and then bounce back left again. Also, slashes (/) are bad for any strings as they are usually an escape character, and even worse for uris where slashes are used for directories.

@Lensflare

I couldn't agree more on DST. What a stupid idea that was, trying to fix something that wasn't broken just to cause a lot of unnecessary problems.

@Lensflare

Of course I'm aware of this :) But still, why can't different countries agree on some simple standards? It's not like they have to give up their way of life or anything if they changed their date format to something that makes sense. Talking about Sweden and changing standards, they used to drive on the left side, but made the switch in 1967, spending milliards to comply with the standards of their neighbouring countries. In my country we seem to have made a compromise though; many people drive in the middle of the road ;)

@devux-bookmark

I take it you're being ironical, right? :)

Once upon a time, there was this geek who liked programming. All by the sudden, he grew up, studied, got married, then divorced. Over the years, he had many different jobs and different girlfriends, until he finally found the love of his life, moved together, built a house and had kids. Then, he got retired, grew old, and died happily ever after. End of story. Sleep tight, kids.

Good question! To me, life is like reading a novel. Would I bother to read it if someone spoiled the end?

P.S. And you Americans, go metric already! Inches, feet, and whatever measurement units you make up are just nonsense.

@D-4got10-01

Me too. But then again, I'm a working relic myself.

@fruitfcker

I read in the news that actually happened to a guy recently. He was swallowed whole and thought he was done for, but then the whale spat him out and he survived.

@azuredivay

How can it not matter that your data is in the hands of a war-loving dictatorship that attacks its neighbours, destroying entire cities and killing thousands of people? You're either extremely ignorant turning a blind eye to the world events, or one of those nihilists to whom there's no right or wrong and nothing matters. Then you might just as well eat turds. It will all turn into shit anyway, so why does that matter?

Yandex is Russian. Don't use that shit.

@azuredivay

Yikes! I just noticed Yandex is Russian! WTF, how can you recommend anything from there?!

Well, so far two tips; One that doesn't work in my country and another that's got really crappy user reviews.

Well, I guess I'll just have to go back to the old-fashioned way of backup storage, altering between two external HDDs, storing one at home and the other in my deposit box at the bank.

@MANICX100

Tresorit has a rating of only two stars at trustpilot.com. Many negative reviews so I think it's a no go.

@azuredivay

Sadly, Yandex requires a registration with a phone, number and their phone registration doesn't work in my country.

@kiki

Not all of the Nordic countries are arctic like Svalbard. In my country, we don't have polar bears and we don't import all of our food, just coffee, chocolate, wine, rice, most spices, olives and some exotic fruits. However, basic groceries like dairy products, meat and poultry, eggs, most vegetables, flour and bread and apples are locally produced. My gf and I grow our own grapes in our greenhouse. They taste much better than the imported ones you can buy at a store, and are guaranteedly free from any pesticides or other toxic chemicals.

Why has this post got so many downvotes? It's a nice, valid post, it's not offensive and it's not trying to sell anything.

@retoor

Do you really believe Europe went into a conflict with Russia? Is that what they say in American media? If Americans are fed with that bullshit and believe that crap, then I understand why they vote for Trump and stand behind him turning his back on Europe.

To be absolutely clear: It is Russia that got into a conflict with Ukraine and threatens its European neighbours, *NOT* the other way round!

@djsumdog

I take it you're American? In that case, you're just proving my point.

Sure, I agree that devrant isn't a platform for politics, and I've never discussed politics here before. But now that Trump has taken everything to its extremes, turning the United States into a dictatorship, I just couldn't keep my mouth shut anymore. Trump's extreme politics are an existential threat to the USA as we know it and to the rest of the world. It's like giving a 9-year old access to nukes. It's an urgent topic that must be brought up and someone needs to put a stop to that madness.

You see, I too do things that actually matter, and I think discussions like this, do matter. Now, what is it that you do that actually matters?

@antigermgerm

Yes, you can do rock climbing here. There are no high mountains but there are some really steep cliffs.

You can do windsurfing here. There is also one spot in Eckerö, where you can do some (very limited) wave surfing when the wind is just right, but in all fairness it's rather lame so don't expect any tube rides...

I'm not into sailing myself, but perhaps you can find some information on some of the marinas' web pages, like ÅSS (https://segel.ax/) or MSF (https://msf.ax/gasthamnen-eng/).
