I have to bounce around between languages so much I don’t really think I’m fluent in anything anymore. I may not be a bad programmer, but some of my programming is bad.

Just fork peeler from 4.2, rename it to “Skininator 4000” and set up a BuyMeACoffee button.

It worse when you and your team spend months on something and then management pivots, uses it in ways it was never intended, and then complains when there has to be another project to “fix” it.

So, roughly 20% of developers have found the right mix of self-medication?

I’ve been using a release candidate to play with the Lemmy-JS client (plus Fresh for the web framework) for a week and change now. But I’m not really a frontend guy, so I’m not the best to review it.

That said: I love that it’s TS by default, server-side unless you’re deliberate about it, and that every command I need is covered by the Deno executable.

My self-hosted stuff is intranet only apart from the VPN I used to access remotely. My blog is a Hugo site currently hosted on GitHub.

Certainly! Let me ignore half the details in your prompt and suggest a course of action for v2 of this package even though you said it was version 15.

I’m sorry that isn’t working for you. Here are the troubleshooting steps for a Samsung convection oven that went out of production in 2018.

You are correct, your question did not involve baking tips, here’s that same course of action from v2 of this software package.

Unix epoch time. It has a cool name and I get to pretend its a Star Date.

I love the idea that they’re at two adjacent tables, each one staring at the other wondering why they hate them.

In the rare occasions that my wife needs to use my phone, I need to type my (12 digit) pincode out on a number pad and read it back to her to be sure I get it right. I can type it flawlessly a dozen times a day but if I try to recite it, I screw up the order.

If the docs I have to write are long enough I will include a small diatribe about a ancient pop-culture hill I’m still willing to die on, just to see if anyone notices.

That looks like the media endpoint in action, all right.

I don’t think Lemmy supports media fields in comments (though I’ve only skimmed the API, I could be wrong) just on posts. I usually use Postimages for hosting images for comments.

Be sure to use the image upload field too

The earliest I can think of (from personal experience) is 4GL languages; the early low-code platforms that first started to get traction in the early 80s. They wouldn’t have replaced programmers but some thought/hoped they would usher in an age of “low skill” programmers that companies could get away with paying minimum wage to.

The thing that made me laugh when I saw the article that OP mentions is that it was coming from AWS.

In my testing AWS’s Titan AI is the least useful for figuring out how to do things in AWS. It’s so terrible that Amazon just announced they’re using Claude for Alexa’s upcoming “AI” features.

Noise may be something to look for when you’re shopping, depending on where your server lives. I have 1 Iron Wolf drive in my NAS (that is in my living room), and it is way louder than the combined noise of 3 WD Reds next to it.

As for failures, Backblaze publishes quarterly failure reports that I always brush up on before looking for a new drive.

It’s gotten to the point that I buy games without looking them up first. I’ve been running Linux as my daily driver for over a decade, and buying a game used to take research. Is there a native version (probably not but it happens once in a while)? What it scoring on ProtonDB? What have the Lutris folks figured out?

Now I just buy the game and play it. Granted I don’t tend to play competitive multiplayer games so I don’t run into cheat prevention system nightmares.

As long as I don’t need to know BASH parameter expansion. I can’t seem to get that right when I’m looking at the docs while I type.

The majority of our household stuff is on a Synology DS920+ (x86). I installed Docker and Portainer on it and then run most of my local services (Immich, Invidious, Alexandrite (the Lemmy frontend), Miniflux, Dokuwiki, and Heimdall) using the Portainer UI.

I’m still running Plex as a manually installed Syno package, because I haven’t taken the time to figure out hardware trans-coding for other setups.

The 920 also manages cameras (via Surveillance Station), all off site backups (we all backup workstations to the 920 and it backs up online), handles private DNS and the reverse proxy for Docker, and hosts my personal VPN. I’m currently in the process of swapping the 4+ year old drives with new ones what will up my capacity (using SHR) from 12TB to 30 (with redundancy).
