At least one to many in my opinion.

Fallback and fix is the best solution.

Linux@programming.dev•Bcachefs creator claims his custom LLM is 'fully conscious'
4 monthsIf it is fully conscious then this would be in the legal realm, I would think. Especially if he decides to claim it as a dependent on his taxes.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Yet another reason to hate on the worse DB in existence
4 monthsThe DoD funded a lot of the early development of relational databases, along with internet protocol. Working for the cia was probably the least of ellisons sins. Really bad company, but solid DB.
And then they have a trip cord running across the room.

Linux@programming.dev•Those who've switched to Linux in the last year, how is it going?
5 monthsI set up a dual boot Win10/Linux system so I would have the option to use windows when I needed. I have not booted into windows for a while now. The only thing I was using it for was to play some older games I could not figure out how to get running in Wine. I may have to use it for tax software if I can’t find something that runs under Linux though.
I took a NRI learn to computer mail order class back in the 80’s. You got to build your own computer as part of the class and you had to manually enter the boot sequence in 8 bit binary to write to the eprom (couple hundred instructions). You could then attach a cassette player to the computer and boot into an OS they sent you. An amazing learning experience.
If you add infrastructure then you will need to add more transmission methods then a couple shark chewed undersea cables. Then you might as well add the millions of SAs, technicians, linemen (linepersons?), etc that install and maintain everything. Oh and I guess we would also need all the institutions and teachers that train all these techies.
Oh merging was a total crap shoot with sccs. It was better with cvs, until it wasn’t and then it was very very bad.
There was sccs (1973) and cvs (1986) before git.

Linux@programming.dev•Linux Will Work For You. Time to Dump Windows 10. And Don't Bother with Windows 11
8 monthsDidn’t watch the video, but switching to Linux was easy for me. Bought a second SSD drive, installed a Linux distro on it, setup the Linux boot manager to allow me to also boot into Win10, started installing apps and tweaking configs and transferring data from the old WIn10 partition. Ran into one issue that was caused by having secure boot turned on in the bios and had to spend some time getting my Steam games running with good performance. Still have a problem getting some Windows only GoG games running, but I can still boot into Win10 if I really need to.

Ok, I was wrong. The only example I have worked with was just someone being lazy.

I probably have just run into a bad example of its use. I can see it being useful for unknown documents.

I really dislike JSonB in Postgres. Just use a ORM at that point.
html and css are art forms, not programming. I have a lot respect for people that can use them and stay sane. Or, at least I would have respect if I ever met a sane one.

Linux@programming.dev•Open-Source NVIDIA Linux Driver Usage About To Become Much More Reliable

Man with a hammer rule definitely applies to SAs. If your skills are in Micro$oft then every problem is best solved with MS, even when it isn’t.
I tried to come up with a gender-neutral way of saying ‘man with a hammer’ and failed. Please make some suggestions for me.
Depends on the context. When my company proposes me to a client for work I am, but oddly during my yearly performance review I am just some smuck who programs.



Win10 was stable, but Win11 was back into the reboot often mode for a while. Not sure if it has gotten better.
