There were proposals for next version being 3.141, followed by 3.1415 and so on. A missed opportunity.

Programming@programming.dev•Anecdotally, programmers dislike "reduce"
7·1 month agoIt’s aggregation in general. It’s the iterator function you can use to implement sum, or count, or both at the same time.
This post is just saying that’s interesting that people dislike is more than say map or filter

Factorio@lemmy.world•This is becoming slightly complicated!English
1·1 month agoThis is beautiful. Make sure to reserve plenty of space for following science pack production blocks, you will need it.
I don’t understand: you are developing multiple software projects under a single brand? That also has a trade-able coin, for a reason?

71·2 months agoI’d say more like coffee. If you drink it every day, you are addicted and legit cannot work without it. But it does keep you focused when in a crunch. As for LLMs, they does have their uses, but they do not produce quality software.

Programming@programming.dev•Solo devs who built an API: how do people actually find it?
3·3 months agoWait, is this a proxy to my API? If yes, what’s the privacy policy / do you think users and providers would trust you with sensitive data (that might be subject to local privacy laws). If no, how can users buy access to my API though your platform?
Also, what kind of APIs are supported? REST (HTTP+JSON)? JSON-RPC? gRPC? Capnproto?

6·4 months agoWhich mobile OS are you guys using? How well do they work? How do they compare to stock android?
I’m thinking about flashing /e/OS over Android.
What? You list metaprogramming as a plus? And functional programming as a minus?
You should rewrite this meme in rust.

I say mantra because there is a large amount of people just hating AI outright, without a grounded reasoning.
Granted, coding agents are insecure by default - they are built to execute remote code - but that does not mean they are generally useless/harmful/bad. I run them in a container, with access to the codebase only.
Also, they hallucinate, produce over-convoluted abstractions, do not know when to reject instead of blindly trying to find a way trough a brick wall.
But also, they can answer questions about gigantic codebases way faster than I could. They can generate tests, find missing test coverage, review code, and many other things.
We could really use a covid-style lockdown for a few years.
Well, yes, but also - you don’t have to pay them. There are open-weights models you can run locally that contain most of that common-wealth knowledge.










I don’t think you understand the problem.
To some people, anubis is weird, there is no changing that. It does the job, the mascot can be changed by paying, but the project itself is weird to some people. Such person is asking, is there an alternative. You cannot just say “push back that is not weird”.
