if someone in the group blames you for something, do you "accept responsibility" even if you didn't do the thing?

why or why not?

lolwut? you have a free-for-all project with no premium features. Users can’t create accounts. All of your code is JS, you don’t even need a server. Just host your stuff on Cloudflare. I have just about a gigabyte of data uploaded there on my free account, so if I can do it, so do you. Just use a CDN for your client-only, JS-only project.

domains though… yours is long and costs around 40 bucks a YEAR.

if you made a good product and want to make some money with it, that’s completely okay, so just say so: “I want money for my work, but I don’t want to take away features that were free and can be provided at no additional cost, so please donate”. Why lie? It’s not like people who won’t donate to you based on this justification will magically donate for “hosting”.

lets pretend its the nineties.

So now that it's been 5 years how are you planning to spend your social credits?

Here’s to a better 2025!

can my code be less ugly pls

Monday: trump and musk are best friends now
Tuesday: trump is jealous of musk

Jeez these two should bang. Americans are such children lmao

I'm the type of girl that can write a 100-line SQL migration without autocomplete, AI and copying-and-pasting and make it run correctly on the first try.

Been nearly 3 years since I last posted on DevRant, a lot has changed, but users are still usering….

I have completed a streak of 1000 days on Leetcode.

I'm going to have to learn about patterns in programming.

Structural and behavioural ones.

I know of several, but I'd love to hear some real-life use cases from y'all, if y'all don't mind.

"Oh yeah I made a new endpoint, and I just pushed the logic for it wherever I wanted without following any of the project's guidelines or structure. I didn't write any tests or documented it anywhere either. I kinda felt there was already an endpoint for it (there was) but I couldn't be assed looking for it in the documentation"
Die.

This is who really needs to be shot

Got any git tips that everyone might not be aware of?

My tip is fixup and autosquash!

If I'm working in a branch with many commits and I notice that 5 commits ago I made a tiny mistake on commit 'abc123' then I'll just do `git commit --fixup abc123`.

It's similar to `--amend` but you can do it for any commit.

At first this would be a separate commit. But next time I wanna rebase I'd just do `git rebase -i --autosquash origin/master` and it'll be squashed into abc123

Some article that explains further details:

* https://blog.sebastian-daschner.com/...

After discovering I had been unaware of this for years I figure there must be other similar useful git things I might be unaware of

The spam filter bot lost it's downvote privileges, already.

Well, it was fun while it lasted. Sigh.

the AIs are reaaaalllly heavily degrading now

now they're hallucinating their own changes to code that they didn't even do

what happened during the bing AI era also. once all the hype was gone suddenly the output degraded. all very strange why it would do that

of course nobody knows how they built their AIs. they just throw things at it and if it increases accuracy of results then that's what they do, but there's no methodology to the madness of building these things. so maybe the devs are just changing random parameters to try to keep up with management's asks but instead they degrade the accuracy of the results over time

Someone broke in past weekend in my workplace. We have a separate storage room at the ground floor and that lock was brute forced.

But we have yet to find something that is missing. It's so weird. Was there really nothing of value there that could have been sold?

So yesterday I had to travel to a different city, which is around 200km to get to (~125 miles), to get my dad to a hospital.
While waiting for him to get processed I did some coding and everything went smooth.

When I came back home, even though my credentials were valid and all, Cognito decided that I'm attempting an "account takeover" and denied my login.

Truly a time to be alive.

Oh, and fuck you Cognito :)

Anyone here registered to my site using evusd.com emailaddress? I received delivery notification failure because your server isn't correctly secured. You requested a password recovery. My mail server only allows secure mail over TLS.

Make a new account or contact me here so i can reset it. Would be happy with someone new to callobrate. I am at 7 registered users now :P * proud *!
