That guy is great. But nothing beats his JS developer interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uo3cL4nrGOk

That’s a pretty common pattern nowadays.

Good luck! I did the same recently. I wrote my own blog system, though. I can share it with you, but I’m not sure it’s the best for anyone else, there were some shortcuts taken given I did not intend to share it.

You can check out my blog and let me know whether you want to try it: https://chrastecky.dev/ (or federated: !programming@chrastecky.dev, !3d-printing@chrastecky.dev, !gaming@chrastecky.dev).

Well, if you’re into that, I’m not one to kinkshame.

It’s also great if you have a general knowledge of something but don’t know the details. Like today I needed to do some database introspection using queries in Snowflake, I knew exactly what I needed but not where the database schema is located etc., so I let GPT write the query instead.

Or some time ago I needed to get all instances of classes implementing a specific generic interface in .NET, the code eventually dabbled into the very specifics of the runtime, it would’ve taken me much longer to find out with documentation.

All in all, it’s my opinion that AI is great if two conditions are met:

• you know exactly what you want to do and you can specify it to very tiny details
• you have the knowledge to verify whether the result makes sense without running the code (or at least the knowledge that it can’t break your app or computer)

Stupid term people use for “writing” code without the knowledge of programming by using AI.

Kinda the next level of running random code from the internet without understanding what it does.

Of course you do, it’s great for your back! And if you don’t use it, it will be good for your back even in ten years!

And by learning nano you’ll run circles around everyone who struggles to remember how to fuck exit vi/m.

There are dozens of us!

Pff, real programmers use butterflies. We open our hands and let the delicate wings flap once. The disturbance ripples outward, changing the flow of the eddy currents in the upper atmosphere. These cause momentary pockets of higher-pressure air to form, which acts as lenses that deflect incoming cosmic rays, focusing them to strike the drive platter and flip the desired bit.

It’s a cluster of workers where everyone can generate images/text using workers connected to the service.

So if you ran a worker, people could generate stuff using your PC. For that you would gain kudos, which in turn you can use to generate stuff on other people’s computers.

Basically you do two things: help common people without access to powerful machines and use your capacity when you have time to use the kudos whenever you want, even on the road where you can’t turn on your PC if you fancy so.

Try running an AI Horde worker, it’s a really great service!

It’s such a classic, I say it every day to myself when I wake up.

Sounds plausible.

You can use https://schedule.lemmings.world/ to automate the posts. Or, given the community we’re in, you can selfhost it!

This week I’ve been doing some work on my GOG Downloader to finally back up all my GOG stuff when I buy new disks, that’s pretty much it for my selfhost/homeserver stuff this week.

It’s not as hard as moving to a different country, really. What the comment described was quite technical internal working of an OS, neither of which does really concern you as a user.

If you simply want to switch to Linux, use some beginner friendly distro (Linux Mint, Fedora etc.) and you’re done.

No idea, but I would hope so.

Yeah, Excel does that, it always fascinated me. It was so weird writing =KDYŽ instead of =IF in Excel. Different times, I guess.

Pff, just use the numbers directly:

${1} = "value";
${2} = "DOGE";

That makes it possible to do stuff like:

for (${152} = 1; ${152} <= 2; ${152}++) {
    ${666} = $${152};
    print(${666});
}

This is a valid code, btw.

Exceptions are now illegal and therefore won’t occur, so no need to check for them

Ah, I see you’ve met C++ developers.
