I would say your biggest issue here is needing precise decimal point computations and using imprecise data types. Any software that requires precision in the decimals needs to use types that are made for precise decimals. No floating point error.
There is many languages that you can build anything with… Although I’ll agree the front end side is more tedious
Now, your friend with the birlliant idea doesn’t need you anymore and can ask a chatbot to make his brilliant app all by himself!
That is definitely a great benefit of vibe coding: it’s an idiot magnet and frees up our brainspace.
I am using KDE’s Plasma 6 as a DE with Wayland. The compositor (window managers are a Xorg thing) is KWin
The shortcuts I use are Meta+Up/Down/Left/Right. I can’t remember if they’re default or if I set them this way.
I prefer to switch down to the VD with the doc on fullscreen than noving my head to another monitor
When I discovered it can be arranged in a grid, it made VDs so much more useful.
Cause a line of the same amount of VDs (9)… Ugh, not fun haha
Even though you can map each to a shortcut, it’s still tougher to use than a grid with directional shortcuts!
Maybe a cross setup would work for you if you ever need a 5th VD :)
Haha that’s fair
Although it’s a habit thing. Most of these are fixed, I never switch them to a different position. So the only ones I have to remember is A1-2 if I am using them, the rest is as easy as knowing where your glasses are stored in your cupboards.
Faster switch. Think each column being 1-3 and each row as A-C
B2 is my terminals, B3 is my IDE, B1 is a secondary IDE (for instance, DataGrip), C row is browser windows, A1-2 is temporary, not often used windows, A3 is communication apps. I mostly use A3, B2-3 and C2-3. It’s all mapped in my head so I can instantly switch to whichever VD I need.
Same. So now I am renting a place to work and it’s much better :)
People can joke about little problems of their life while knowing that there are much bigger problems in the world.
True for the phone and tablet, but for any sort of computer that is not true
I work on a laptop with virtual desktops and I am much more productive that way than with a big screen… Or two big screens.
Everything is in the center of my field of view, I know which VD of my 3x3 grid holds what. It’s much more efficient for me than bigger screens could ever be. And that is not for lack of trying!
It just depends on the person.
Okay that’s something I had no idea about hahaha
I am convinced Rust haters are simply refusing to learn something new, consciously or not.
redflag number 2: not seeing the issue with accepting 250k lines of code generated by AI supervised by a teenager without a software engineering background
Except that he made Jarvis. Meaning he understands perfectly his tool’s abilities and limitations… Which vibe coders don’t.
That 96% of the population isn’t currently in a state so shitty they’d revolt. We’re talking about a dystopian future where there is barely any work to do, yet no UBI or equivalent system. A future where the rich have everything and keep everything. People born in these conditions won’t be too lazy for a revolution.
Then they will someday wake up with a shock, because no amount of tech will stop 99% of the population from winning a revolution. That only happens in movies.
Plus, many countries would riot far before it gets to this point. We frenchies protested for years “just” because of our retirement being pushed a few years…
Why is transpilation unappealing to you?
