31·2 months agodeposit is the only acceptable thing here… rent? no way! you don’t pay rent per person in the house. the landlord is losing nothing per month for your pet
the potential damages come from the additional deposit/bond
what kind of crazy person decorates a coffee with nuts?!
also side note: it should be illegal to put known allergens in anything without mentioning it…

Tech@programming.dev•Nearly 90% of Windows Games now run on Linux, latest data shows — as Windows 10 dies, gaming on Linux is more viable than everEnglish
9·3 months agoi’d say it’s less about gaming per se and more that linux is becoming everything the lay-person needs… a lot of people often play games (i’d wager there are more gamers in the world than those that use linux on the desktop, and by a pretty large margin), which previously had all but ruled linux out as a one stop shop
certainly when i played games this was the case - i started by booting linux by default with a windows gaming partition, and tried to hard to make that work but in the end it was just far too much effort and i just started booting windows every time (granted, this was in the windows 7 days ;p)
gaming on linux is more about the average person being able to use linux for all of their tasks than it is about gaming on linux as a specific thing

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Vibe coding is great for MVP'sEnglish
1·5 months agoyeah viable is such a variable concept
i guess like… i have a friend that is a lab tech, and he vibe coded a stand alone HTML and JS page for their team to take CSV and filter it… the excel process they used before was horrendous… in that case, i guess that’s a viable product: it works, isn’t buggy (or at least bugs will become well known and able to be manually avoided or worked around)… i’d say that’s an MVP but wouldn’t be so if you wanted to productise it

29·5 months agovibe coding is trash for MVPs… it’ll get you there, but as always the achilles heel of vibe coding is maintenance and bugs
vibe coding is great for a POC, but the defining difference between a POC and an MVP is that a POC is made to be thrown out, doesn’t have to work all the time (you can say “ah yup just need to give it a kick” when you’re showing it off and manually intervene)
vibe coding is good to show a basic, unmaintainable, non-production version of a feature of function, but then you need to take that and manually build it into your MVP - perhaps by copying some minor parts of the POC, but verifying every step
if you’re taking about charlie kirk with that “civil conversation” bit, those conversations were using misleading half truths to publicly debate people he disagrees with in order to convert the people around said debate to his cause. i wouldn’t call that civil… civil is healthy, truthful debate on the merits: not winning at all costs
honestly the text kinda looks like it’s AI generated… has weird kerning, things aren’t quite right
perhaps for that particular group… though i had a friend whose old af macbook air had stopped updating literally years ago, and he still used it because it still worked… but then apps slowly stopped working
i installed linux on it, and he was actually really keen to give linux itself a go, and it worked great for him!
i gave him an old macbook a little while after that, and he’s back on macos now, but he said he’d switch back in a heartbeat if there were problems (slowness, update compatibility, etc)
i guess the thing being he’s not really technical enough to care about the OS other than outcomes, but also was actually interested in linux itself to learn for the sake of it… he’s a lab tech, and vibe codes data manipulation tools, so not a lot of IT-related skills, but always interested in learning

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•We don't talk about IPv5English
1·6 months agoin the real world we actually use distribution centers and loading docks
because we can pass packages in bulk between large distances… in routing, it’s always delivery boys: a single packet is a single packet: there’s no bulk delivery, except where you have eg a VPN packing multiple packets into a jumbo frame or something…
the comment you’re replying to is only providing an analogy: used to explain a single property by abstraction; not the entire thing
we can have staff specialise in internal delivery
but that’s not at all how NAT works: its not specialising in delivery to private hosts and making it more efficient… it’s a layer of bureaucracy (like TURN servers and paperwork - the lookup tables and mapping) that adds complexity, not because it’s ideally necessary but just because of limitations in the data format
routers still route pretty much exactly the same in IPv6 direct or NAT, but just at the NAT layer public IP and port is remapped to internal addresses and ports: the routing is still exactly the same, but now your router has to do extra paperwork that’s only necessary because of the scheme used to address
i’d love to see linus revoke twitters license to use linux somehow
source code? i don’t think you know what you’re talking about… it’s called a prompt
SLASH
ESSS (emphasis because hate it)
right? like at the time we had YUI and then bootstrap came along as a breath of fresh air
you need to know css to use tailwind because it’s basically style= on everything: it’s css with extra steps
imo there’s VERY little difference to a lot of tailwind and style=“…”. you gain a few minor abstractions, but you lose so much
windows n-1 was was good: an always relevant statement not because it’s true, but because less shit than whatever the garbage is now is such a low bar
