Yes Snap is the bane of my existence. I actually had to create an ansible playbook for work that permanently removes the snap version of Firefox and then installs the official apt from Mozilla’s PPA. And on top I install other things my teams needs like VSCode and Chromium without using snaps. A nice repeatable process I wish I didn’t have to create but when certain clients insist on Ubuntu there is not much else to do
Some of them add bugs disguised as features, like Ubuntu’s snap
If they move to Python they can just have pain without constant 😜
You just killed us all by putting a space between the dashes
This is not mildly infuriating this is the free internet being eroded through Google’s control of Chrome
Yes I have to use team correctly
This is what a well implemented democratic socialism gets you (The Nordic model)
It is so readable that you missed the fact it doesn’t have the FROM clause
I know XML is very last century but if they could coexist in one file, a file that treats each config section as an object, so we can create a Project Object Model, call it pom for simplicity, and then if you are old store it in xml and the you could have only one file and call it pom.xml and then maybe one day someone can make this very useful file a bit more modern and turn it into json or yaml but for now a single pom.xml could save us from that config hell others speak of /s
Code created by a LLM still needs to be interpreted and understood by a human so it can be made useful in a software development context. So yeah the article is exaggerating the impact of AI for coding I think, in my opinion it will become yet another tool at a developer’s disposal to speed up their work
The current Colombian government is a leftist version of the Trump administration, including an extremely corrupt populist president and with nepotism all over the place. Nothing the government does has any substance and it is all for show so I would not be surprised if these people are back to their old ways once the current president is voted out.
Modern keyboards are an evolution of the old typewriter that existed before computers as we know them and programming as we know it existed, so I would say keyboard came first
Never underestimate the risk of an attack coming from the inside.
Also once you have an implementation with a certain kind of authentication other devs are likely to copy what you have successfully deployed and then your security assumptions will make it into public facing code without much consideration
it makes you a Windows engineer which is worse
And then we both lie to the client
It would also mean that you can’t use extension that modify the page, not only affects ad blocks but things like blocking Facebook “like” buttons or Google trackers. Right now we need more people to use non-chromium browsers, like Firefox, so hopefully Chrome looses market share and with it Google starts loosing control over the internet.
I think he is talking about the 70% of the world that uses Chrome/Chromium based browsers
This is the result of the world blindly using Chrome and other Chromium based browsers. Now with effectively full control over the browser that more than 90% of the world uses Google can force its will on the internet
This is the one I’m thinking of switching to
Australian here. I see in America a similar pattern than what happens here, one party (conservative) receives a functioning government and proceeds to fuck things up with absurd policies while at the same time immediately claiming credit for the state of the country as soon as they get into power. Takes years to change the momentum of a country and by the time a new party is elected the country is almost bottoming out at which point the new (left leaning) party spends most of their first term fixing things up only to get blamed at the next election for being in power when things turned to shit. The electorate will never understand that a new government needs years to undo the fuck ups of the likes of the GOP. This time the Dems haven’t had enough time to fix up all the stupid shit the GOP did last time so I expect these next 4 years the country to hit rock bottom while the GOP is still in power and it will sadly be a moment of “Americans got what they voted for”
