I like using bash a lot for terminal automation but as soon as anything goes beyond around 7-15 lines I reach for a scripting language like python or js. Bash is just really hard and counterintuitive

I actually like it a lot for stuff that is user specific, not repo specific. I imagine someone could have a “build.log” to view the build output in some specific way that hooks up to a mini taskbar app or some other random shit.
I’ve personally added some files that don’t relate to the project at all and has no reason for being inside a .gitignore and I’ve had to add it many times.
I used to be anti AI generated code but now I’m leaning into it. The thing is you need to engineer your context a lot and make sure that the AI has all the relevant information in the context and everything else is minimised.
The code it outputs is usually 7/10 which is below standard for many parts such as auth, access layer, abstractions etc. but completely adequate when creating a dialog for editing data as an admin user.
Don’t get me wrong also, I spent 10 years coding and I fucking loved it and it’s a damn shame what’s happening to our craft. It’s like being a guitar player and everyone uses music production software now to create what you did by just describing it instead of playing. That’s the crux of the issue the way I see it, my most valuable skill is now deprecated and instead code review, explaining tasks to a junior, linking relevant quick start documentation, clarity of English explanations, architecture, knowledge of the code base, designing guidelines for how to work (like SKILLS.md files), security and creating dirty internal tooling to save you or your LLM a step are now in.
The way I see it is that a large portion of our job has changed for the worse, I don’t get to just spend a day solving a problem and make the code flow through my fingers anymore, I make my “junior” do it, fix obvious bugs if any and spend the rest on QA.


It’s always backwards compatible so major versions don’t mean anything.
Yeah, the global hegemon can always do a “rules for thee, not for me” thing. It’s like trying to fine a king for a parking violation.


Honestly, if they make it with upgradable RAM, M2 SSD and GPU you’re essentially buying 1 and getting gen 2 and 3 for 50% off.
How people see the US as “the good guys” is beyond me. The only thing they had going was defending the rules based global order but that is now becoming less relevant in favor of power politics.


It reminds me of this one. Sure you could make a case for selection based on breeding qualities but that’s a huge investment for just looking good. I think this guys take is more plausible.
I mean, look at the super chonky neck bones.

US culture varies a lot by state to state, YMMV.
I want to get another map which includes rules for guests. In some countries it’s shoes off unless you’re a guest.


Everything in Debian just works, but people are looking for more features than Debian offers out of the box.
I can see why people would want Debian if they’ve been burned couple of times by distros that move very fast and break stuff.


Like ham and cheese in a restaurant.
I respect a bro powerleveling his finances.
We’re up to 4% again 5% is back on the menu which will make 2026 also the year of the Linux desktop.
I’m sometimes surprised of how few people play indie games. I’m playing Neon White now and having a blast.


All of the work they do will indirectly benefit Linux gaming as whole. Lutris has more direct use of Wine and if they support Proton they support Wine to a large extent. It could be that when the support for SteamOS is up then it’ll start working with other tools.
Not to mention if Bottles end up working where you have the mod client and game running on the same virtual system.


Just submitted a bug report to KDE for Discover where apt update failed behind the scenes due to Synaptics changing some value in their repo. It just needed a confirmation [y/n] to continue, figured someone would want to do it.
I’m from Iceland and this pretty much checks out. Pro tip, renting a cabin with a hot tub on days with good conditions is really good. Also travel with people who smoke so they go out and check on a regular basis.


You just have to add two numbers. With the big number hand you can count hundreds by using the closest segments first, then medium then distant and so on. Hardest additions will make you carry the one once for a case like 19+175 which is easy enough. Also, going from 37 to 38 in binary with fingers you have to close 4 fingers and open one while counting segments you at most move your thumb to the next segments on both hands.
Binary still works fine and is better depending on the specific case but in my opinion counting segments is usually more convenient and base 10 friendly.
For fun I’m going to explain why. So air can hold some amount of water in it at any temperature. Water energy in form of heat is not evenly distributed so some molecules move faster than others, at the surface some move fast enough to escape the water and into the air. That’s called evaporation, boiling does however require 100°C.
This also explains why humid weather affects evaporation (lower capacity to hold water in air) and at high humidity there’s an a similar chance of water being deposited to the body of water as water escaping which affects evaporation speed a lot.
Honestly, I really like this quality of water, it would be super annoying to deal with otherwise.
