How to efficiently package CLI application on linux
  • This dynamic does exist, but you have to build something useful to the likes of Debian and Redhat and that’s a tall order. You should look into Linux brew, it’s a community maintained package management system that might be more suitable for your scale https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-on-Linux

  • Modern SQL: A lot has changed since SQL-92
  • I use virtually none of the modern features, interesting read

  • To those with 2+ monitors on your machine: What's your use case, and how much does it actually boost your productivity?
  • I like the single ultrawide, maybe with the laptop screen for a meeting app. Two monitors just feels like a compromise and for a little extra you can just remove the border entirely

  • Liz Cheney warns U.S. can't 'survive' another Donald Trump presidency
  • Sure it can, you guys give Trump way too much credit

  • Pick 3 Rules
  • All these dumb gimmicks then a no sleep pill lol I know my choice

  • Piracy was NEVER stealing
  • I do pay for games. I was just contesting your statement that there ate FOSS alternatives for everything.

    I see, I guess my thought there is you don't need video games to work or earn a living, a video game is a luxury and luxuries aren't worth compromising integrity over. In fairness to all of you guys, I did my fair share of piracy when I was a kid, my sense is that as soon as you can afford software your tune suddenly changes because App Stores are a lot easier than whatever the kids are doing these days

  • Piracy was NEVER stealing
  • You don’t think the people who make the games deserve your support? There is no need to play a game, you want to do it. You won’t lose your livelihood if you don’t launch Steam today get real. So if you desire the software, and they are asking for money, you really ought to honor that. Most game devs are just trying to make it like the rest of us, it’s not right to just take and take. Why do you think you’re owed stuff for free? It’s like you feel justified in stealing from Walmart because you’re broke. This argument that it doesn’t hurt anyone is irrelevant and not accurate. It’s one thing to not activate Windows, but I think most people on Steam need the money

  • My go-to formula
  • This is the house style at my job too

  • Asking a Linux user to recommend a printer
  • Can confirm, bought a Brother MFP like five years ago with ink refills and I still have one left. Best $90 I ever spent

  • Piracy was NEVER stealing
  • Such a shallow take, I think if you can’t afford the commercial software then there’s a whole ecosystem of FOSS you should be using instead. Way too much outstanding free software in the world to bother with piracy! My two cents is I don’t want to go anywhere that I’m not welcome, and if you can’t bother to pay the devs then you’re probably not welcome

  • rule
  • I love all the any means necessary people, like just vote for 5 seconds and get the damned ice cream. You don’t need to sabotage the bus, just act civilly inside the bus

  • If you're making software for actual end-users, you HAVE to give it a goddamn GUI, or else you suck, your software sucks, and nobody is going to use your damn software.
  • Eventually AI will just generate a GUI for you. In the meantime, ShellGPT will write the shell commands for you. But for the most part, GUIs are a weird luxury and you should just learn some bash, it’ll make you feel better!

  • Junior Dev VS Machine Learning
  • I’ve just worked for agencies that hire juniors and outsource. If you’ve seen what I’ve seen you’d change your tune

  • Junior Dev VS Machine Learning
  • LLM costs $20 a month and needed only 60 hours of training, junior dev has been at it for years, costs as much for a half hour, and still needed me to repeatedly explain what a rectangle is

  • If your toilet was sentient would you rather it crave your bodily waste or hate you for it?
  • You definitely want it to enjoy the experience, otherwise it seems too risky to sit

  • No choice was given
  • OP is a horrible person and I hate him

  • Don't think my phone runs Nvidia... or Wayland 🤔
  • It’s true! I wonder how it knew!!

  • I'm really getting over the enshitification of the internet.
