all of that describes a lack of extension support. “they just need to be updated” means “gnome devs don’t care about extensions, so shit that was working just fine now broke, and it’s up to the extension dev to find and fix bugs they didn’t introdkce”
But sure, you just need to update… and pin versions and shit
they don’t break due to bugs. They break because they are literally unsupported and ignored.
fuck that shit!
isn’t that exactly what i said? Betacam (studio) vs betamax (consumer)
betacam was better than vhs, and was used in the broadcasting industry. It was better than vhs.
Betamax, which is the one you’re talking about, is not the same format, and actually equal to or slightly inferior to vhs.
the most important thing then is to make a flashy website, and try to unleash that monstrosity unto the world
I will never go back to ubuntu, begrudgingly or not
mandrake was my first. Good memories
there is and I already have (albeit not published). The source code for that plugin is available and is really short and very easily modifiable.
Mine replaces “ai” with “bs”, “large language model” with “slop generator”, for example.
so no. Before llms came around, lots of people were hobby programmers. We learned. Sorry to be blunt, but being a hobbyist is not an excuse. The best programmers I know are hobbyists
by “completing it” do you mean having something that seems like it works? Or something that you know works? If it’s the former then you’ve just had the computer do the easy part (creating something) and skipped the actually hard part (making it robust).
Are errors handled properly, is all input being validated? If using https, are you actually verifying certificates? This sort of thing
yes, but that doesn’t help if the software refuses to run on modern java
when I need to type a dangerous command, i prepend it with #, so it’s just a comment.
Only when I’m really sure do i go back to the start of the line and remove the #

a lambdo which can only contain one expression, and not even a statement is pretty much useless. For anything nontrivial you have to write a separate function and have the lambda be just a function call expression. Which completely defeats the point
I don’t read spoken language, but I do read written ones. The problem with python’s ternary is that it puts the condition in the middle, which means you have to visually parse the whole true:expression just to see where the condition starts. Which makes it hard to read for anything but the most trivial examples.
The same goes for comprehensions and generators
I know one person who does this. It’s simple: apple discontinued the ipod touch. He had no other choice than to get an iphone without a sim
you need to compile c with a c++ compiler to be able to define macros for keywords iirc. But I did do this once to translate c to my native language, Maltese. It was cursed
