web2.0!

@jiraTicket the mentality "everything has to change all the time" is also horrible

easy answer, without diving into optimization, algorithms, or any technicalities

"imagine you're learning a foreign language. single grammar mistake means the application will crash (best case scenario)"

people with basic self-reflection should realize they're not 100% gramaticaly correct all the time even in their native language

then there's Acer

and the legitimate reply might look the same as all the other spam

I can imagine known exploits, fuzzing, generating fake content for payload delivery, etc...
Can't currently imagine it would "discover" new malware/approach, which wouldn't be based on existence within its training data

@dIREsTRAITS tbh i fail to see the issue with "looks outdated"

basic xfce without graphic bloat ftw

"Its so boring by default"
And what do you expect? Its a tool and the main question is, if it does its job.
Are you expecting amusement also from other tools? Spending evenings by lauging at a toolbox?

you know, UI, UX, and graphical design are not important because being dev is just about writting code and nothing else

doing so much without achieveing same result as the colleague sounds like you've picked an inefficient approach for the goal or exp'd on wrong skill tree

What's the point of a game, if not to play it for enjoyment?
If you're farming, that's just a job with extra steps.

@lungdart tbh i don't support the idea of writting tests first / TDD either.

it means i write ton of tests on "expected" behavior. then during implementation, discover the remote side behaves differently than was known and have to rewrite not only code but also ton of tests.

seems more practical to prototype operational code first and then cover it with tests.

+ i never really understood how can i write e.g. asserts on exceptions at a point where i don't know what and how i'll be processing

@cuddlyogre i was using it quite a lot. but then i've also started to use pre-commit hooks for trailing whitespace removal and of course, it deletes all the doublespaces and new line breaks with it

"HE CANNOT. IT CAN ONLY BE DONE THROUGH THE APP."

please remember this next time someone brings the "right to offline". this a great example why digital/online-only without fallback is a bad idea

@darksideofyay then there's few more to add to the list

Keep in mind devs are quite specific community, i.e. agree on Copilot. I'm using it too and yeah, it's needs corrections but it's not bad.

Our corp also has private instance of GPT4. The decline of quality since last year is noticeable.

But the key part of statement is "gains their employers expect". Imagine all those CEOs sold on hype how GPT wrapper will generate 10x workers, now realizing it's not coming true and blaming own employees instead of their overinflated expectations.

@Lensflare search for something along the lines of "industrial display panel" instead of TV

the main difference - the user has CHOSEN to have those toolbars installed

It does it also with non-MS apps - i.e. when I put a link to PDF into a PowerPoint presentation and then click on it, the MS Office opens Acrobat instead of the default PDF viewer.

stick to creation of graphic packages... like with ATMFD.DLL/BLEND?

+ it screws any screenshots

and if you hit the emoji buttons too fast in random order, there's a good chance the outlook crashes. at least in my case it did few times

custom image > no image > windows selected image

i like the fact Firefox is first and Chrome last

around the time "fake it till you make it" was accepted as "enough" to rake millions in VC money?

from the same paragraph: "There is as yet no known complete implementation of this standard"

for real? so they have specs but no compilator which could make use of all those features?

@IHateFrameworks this "negotiation by threats" is the dumbest shit ever. Its quite sad so many companies still play by it

+ everything is horribly slow and bloated with pointless animations and graphical effects

“They use a computer one way, and we use a computer another way,” Guarin-Zapata emphasizes. “That’s where the problem is starting.” Ford agrees. “These are smart kids,” she says. “They’re doing astrophysics. They get stuff. But they were not getting this.”

@shovethisrant just because something does not apply for you environment does not mean it's useless

i understand, if all you do are standard linux servers/VMs you don't feel the need. But when working on a legacy network elements where every f*ing device behaves differently, you have 5-8 session in parallel, and everything must be logged for future auditing, PuTTY is an incredible utility
