Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Coincidentally, FFM peg is also something you can find on the hub
11 monthsYes? What makes you think I’m not? I’m definitely not some kind of alien, you know wearing a human suit like some sort of second skin. Nah that would be crazy.

11 monthsYou would have to ask a doctor, don’t take medical advice from the internet.
From what I know it can irritate the skin and can lead to long term issues with the skin like dermatitis. It can also cause blood vessels to rupture under the skin, which is usually not a big issue and will heal. But it can cause some pain and leave a mark when healed and will only heal when it is given time to rest up, which can be hard if one is used to a lot of masturbation. If it isn’t allowed to heal, it can cause more problems. I’m sure there can be more issues, but I don’t know about those.
A lot of the risks of masturbation are myths or exaggerated a lot. Wanking once or twice a day is probably fine. And your body will let you know when you’ve overdone it.
And to add: Poor hygiene is a lot bigger risk than masturbation ever is. Keep your bottoms clean!

11 monthsPORNHUB
It’s Pornhub, like https://pornhub.com/. One of the biggest (if not the biggest) porn site on the planet, used by millions if not billions. There is nothing wrong with watching porn if you feel like it. What you do in your own home is your own business. Just don’t wank too much, or you are going to have health issues. Which are also totally normal and you should just go talk to your doctor, they will not be surprised or shocked, it is literally their job to deal with stuff like that.
I feel the world is going crazy. Shoving all of this stuff under the carpet isn’t helping anyone and won’t make it go away. Half of the time I can’t understand my young niece and nephew because they speak in this code language, evolving all the time so they can talk about normal stuff young people talk about and stay ahead of the big censor machine. And often it’s censored so poorly, everyone can still read it, like what was the point then?

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•I wonder if this was made by AI or a shit programmer
11 monthsNot below average dev necessarily, but when posting code examples on the internet people often try to get a point across. Like how do I solve X? Here is code that solves X perfectly, the rest of the code is total crap, ignore that and focus on the X part. Because it’s just an example, it doesn’t really matter. But when it’s used to train an LLM it’s all just code. It doesn’t know which parts are important and which aren’t.
And this becomes worse when small little bits of code are included in things like tutorials. That means it’s copy pasted all over the place, on forums, social media, stackoverflow etc. So it’s weighted way more heavily. And the part where the tutorial said: “Warning, this code is really bad and insecure, it’s just an example to show this one thing” gets lost in the shuffle.
Same thing when an often used pattern when using a framework gets replaced by new code where the framework does a little bit more so the same pattern isn’t needed anymore. The LLM will just continue with the old pattern, even though there’s often a good reason it got replaced (for example security issues). And if the new and old version aren’t compatible with each other, you are in for a world of hurt trying to use an LLM.
And now with AI slop flooding all of these places where they used to get their data, it just becomes worse and worse.
These are just some of the issues why using an LLM for coding is probably a really bad idea.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•I have been debugging this error for three days now
1 yearCould someone re-make this but with the big naturals Padme? Asking for a friend
Having Co-pilot help is like having a junior dev at your side, who is also drunk and high.

Just so you know, operating spinning drives this way is a bad idea. If the platters are spinning and the drive tips over, the rotation of the drives resists the movement. This gyroscopic force is enough for the platters to touch the heads which are flying a tiny distance above the platter. Obviously this is a bad thing and will damage the drives.
A quick fix is to just lay them flat or fix both of them together so they have a more stable base to stand on. Putting it in an enclosure is even better.
Take a look at yt-dlp. Despite it’s name, it can do a lot of web video and audio, not just YouTube.
It’s all fun and games until your computer turns into a black hole because there is too much information in too little of a volume.
You might want to look into using some form of parameterized queries.

Please send flowers, I just died from cringe
Doesn’t matter, the client ignores the error anyways.
Important context:
This is often an exercise for beginning programmers, it’s a very simple task that’s easy to understand, but leaves enough room in the implementation to make it a good exercise.
Sometimes it’s used as a test on job applications, which is total bullshit, it isn’t a good test of someones actual skills as a software developer. Because of this it’s become a bit of a joke on the internet.
Also programmers: Hmmm do I really need this $1500 Herman Miller chair? Yes I absolutely do!
Typescript on the other hand: Exwuse me sir, you seem to have a little oopsie right here. Oh right! Let me just fix that right up.
HERE ARE TWO THOUSAND ERRORS! YOUR PUNY LITTLE BUFFER CAN’T EVEN SCROLL BACK TO READ THEM ALL! AND YOU CALL YOURSELF A PROGRAMMER?
