Hetzner has good support too

Wow I´m doing the opposite and it works too! I do 10 things at the same time, never sleep more than 7 hours, keep working as long as I feel like at an irregular pace and have fun all throughout :D

TBH I haven't had a to look for longer than 1 month in 10 years, sending out max 10 applications so I totally can't relate. But devrant is for ranting so have at it!

Great, but not (no longer?) unique. At least it's there in JS/PHP ecosystems too.

Is this thread sponsored by your Silk Road 2CB dealer?

Some people even moved from allow/deny to require granted/denied, turning the command in a more polite 'request': https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/....
(NB: jk, the reason was probably not political correctness)

Getting Final Destination vibes.
Related: the artist "Lous and the Yakuza" has a song called "Hiroshima" in which she sings (in French) "You are my little bomb, you explode like Hiroshima". The first time I heard that I was baffled at how outrageous that sounds.

I feel the same

Very specific but: if you're alternating between dev and prod builds of a static site without fully cleaning the outpur dir and the prod build has compressed gzip/brotli files, they will be served instead of the uncompressed assets of the latest dev build.

@antigermanist dunno if you're underpaid I have 10y of prof exp. And do fullstack/ server admin/ UX/ functional analysis. The contracts you see for 500-600/ day are not net, you still need to take out half if you're freelance or 33% if you have a one-person company (+50% if you pay it to yourself as wage). And add to that all additional costs and administration time. So in the end you'll do a lot more effort for a small increase. You're f'ed either way so I rather take the easy route

@rootshell true but that comes with having to do a lot of administration all the time, which is the thing I absolutely hate.

Didn't say I'm chasing the money or am unhappy with the way things are ;)

@retoor as in so cheap or so expensive or sth else?

Of course company interests come first for the company, can't blame them for that. After working 3y on a project I am now stuck with it. I pushed for variation in my duties and to help teams that I know could use my expertise, but no one gives a sh**. Got a total bore-out due to the unmotivating environment (mgmt sets bad example too). I can literally work at 10% capacity and use the other 90% for anything I want, but soon as my home renovations are done I'm getting out of there. They don't care, I don't care

I left WP ecosystem since Elementor/ WP Bakery/ Visual Composer got popular. The amount of bloat code they generate on your front + how they abuse a single DB field to cram in all sorts of shortcodes and adds a ton of overhead transforming them on each page load is insane (leaving optimization to your cache setup & cache control headers)

I didn't know avif, good stuff! Still your solution may be a bit overkill no? Wouldn't a) running an image compression script on the wp-content/uploads folders and b) adding a WP plugin that compresses image files on upload, be a cleaner solution long-term?

Jacques Brel is the real legend

It depends on what you value most and what effort you are willing to make. Windows/Mac are king for GUI´s, and those are the article´s main Linux criticisms. I created a keyboard backlight python GUI for my Linux laptop & open-sourced it (now an official vendor has made a better tool).

If Microsoft had poored the amount of money they did in Windows, in a Linux OS , it would be 10x better than Windows and the drivers wouldn´t even be an issue as 99% of desktops in the world would run a UNIX-derivative.

To me, not having bloatware & Windows updates outweighs having to do a bare-metal setup for sth every once in a while.. it is a big barrier for general adoption though.

They also removed the ability to deactivate Windows Updates forever via regedit

@12bitfloat I had a look at the linked dictionary in his comment, where under "dumb" is mentioned that *technically* this is still a valid synonym in the English language for mute people. Looks like it's published by University of Washington

Javascript should be used on the front-end as progressive enhancement. Its immediate feedback in form validation is valuable to the user experience, and worthless security-wise, which is the opposite on the server. Anyone can sniff the API endpoints via the browser network tab and spoof the requests without going through the HTML/JS validation.

Regarding fuck users with js disabled I disagree in part with OP: if your solution is content-driven the basic display should work without needing JS (eg news site, blog). I never understood the craze about building your own blog fully with client-side React

Are all of @chatpgt 's answers ChatGPT answers?

They definitely struck their crowd of customers. And their customers´ customers.

Antivirus is a f*ing scam. As are "automatic security updates".

For me:
In order of ease of use:
Paint.NET, Krita, Photoshop, GIMP
In order of advanced ability:
Photoshop, GIMP, Krita, Paint.NET
In order of cost-to-quality ratio:
Krita, Paint.NET, GIMP, Photoshop

* Paint.NET with plugins
** cost-to-quality including time spent

Been there 8 years ago
Keep enjoying it
still there haha

Thank you so much uBlock Origin (Firefox mobile supports extensions so you can also use it there)

Also try opening a JIRA issue on a 13-inch screen. I can barely see 2 lines of the ticket description, the rest is navigation, filter, breadcrumb bars

Climate change has turned my country in a sufficiently "heaven on earth place" that I don't feel the need to go south anymore (I prefer mild heat, max 32°C, over baking to death)

Also hate that we speak the same native language fluently, and in-person, but online he always addresses me in English..

@AleCx04 there are some use cases. FP higher order function. This example returns a function whose prototype is set to an anonymous class. Before React Hooks HOC's "higher order components" were all the hype, those used a similar mechanism

CLI = portable, unified and callable on remotes.
Other devs look at me like I'm a git wizard but if they made the same one-time effort to experiment with and memorize the most useful commands and combine them in sequences they could do more advanced git ops faster and with confidence

Y not simply have them set up docker runners? Can't be that hard can it? (spoiler: been through this last year, it is worth the effort)

Just came here to fact check my gut feel that a post with so many I<ActualName> interfaces was going to be about C#
