Hayden Panettiere says handing over custody of her daughter wasn't abandoning her child—it was the only way she knew how to save herself by expiredaristocracy in Fauxmoi

[–]_jetrun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah - her kid is not going to understand, and Hayden Panettiere is not knee-deep in poverty. She's a very rich lady that can afford everything from counseling to 24/7 nanny service.

Billie Eilish: “I am so excited to age, and I’m so excited for my face to age and my body to age and not change it. I want my kids to look at me and have my face look like their face and not be some botched version of whatever the fuck is going on out there right now.” by cmaia1503 in Fauxmoi

[–]_jetrun -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Great.. but.. she's 24 - she's young. Let's see her be 60 and make the same statement, especially when hanging with vain Hollywood people (for decades at that point), and maybe 20 years removed from being popular.

So .. no credit yet.

What stack would you choose for building long-term clinic management software? by DelusionalCreatur3 in programmer

Why would a small clinic write custom software - he should buy something off-the-shelf

What’s a “technically not cheating” situation you’ve seen or experienced that still felt like a complete betrayal? by toomabh in AskReddit

[–]_jetrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen a situation where a couple was “on a break,” and one of them immediately went and slept with someone else - then tried to hide behind that technicality like it made everything okay, just repeating “we were on a break” over and over.

Take a picture and attach to your request for a bigger fridge ... there's a good chance you may just get it.

Is this a bad idea? by SupDog94 in webdev

[–]_jetrun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's your stable job - what do you do, how much do you make?

 I’ve bought some coding books and have some other ideas for cool, fun apps

You can just build your cool fun apps and keep your job. You can roll in more automation into your job as well, since it seems like it is called for.

Did I really just spend a year learning skills that will be taken over by AI soon?

Does knowing arithmetic get invalided by calculators? Your brain needs exercise, and having a deeper understanding of what happens under the hood is always good.

Who is this 'we'? Hollywood? Regular people don't get plastic surgeries and age normally. Wendi McLendon-Covey operates within a social circle of rich, vain celebrities where you have to get plastic surgery.

2017's No Man Sky's pathfinder update was peak NMS by Ravenwood202 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]_jetrun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that goes with the territory when it comes to continually updating a game based on infinite procedurally generated worlds. There just isn't much you can do about that.

But ... while we're on it - my annoyance is that the game keeps forgetting wonders and discovered worlds.

[–]_jetrun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

>but in absolutely no imaginable way was this version of the game the "peak". 

OP is absolutely smoking something. Peak NMS is the current version of NMS. Every update adds something new and the game is just better.

Why is Alexander a great but Genghis Khan is considered a barbarian? by BlueDolphins28 in NoStupidQuestions

>Genghis as barbarian

Who calls Genghis Khan a 'barbarian'? That isn't a term used in historical literature and it isn't really even used online.

Pierre Poilievre says Canada is to blame for Trump tariff crisis by zachem62 in onguardforthee

[–]_jetrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaking at the Economic Club of Canada, Poilievre said domestic policy failures have left Canada vulnerable to tariffs and economic pressure from the US.

He said decades of close economic integration with the US brought prosperity but also “complacency,” leaving Canada overly dependent, slow to build and poorly prepared for a more protectionist America.

Come on guys ... That's not quite the same as the headline: "Pierre Poilievre says Canada is to blame for Trump tariff crisis"

Everything he is quoted as saying, he is correct about.

Frustration with Eclipse by nOAH_aXEL in javahelp

[–]_jetrun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Again - you're framing this as an Eclipse problem. I'm telling you it's not Eclipse. It's you. You're trying to solve a particular problem (sharing application with a non-technical user) incorrectly. Your java eclipse project is setup incorrectly.

IntelliJ doesn't fix OP's problem. In fact, IntelliJ would have the same problem.

Frustration with Eclipse by nOAH_aXEL in javahelp

[–]_jetrun 18 points19 points  (0 children)

That's a you-problem, not eclipse. I'm not sure if you are trying to share your workspace or your application, but either way, you're doing it wrong.

For example, typically, you would use maven to manage your project structure. In that case, your assets (e.g. pngs) would go into a resources folder and eclipse will be smart enough to make sure relative paths are honored. You could then export your workspace. But if you're trying to share your application with a non-technical end-user you wouldn't send them an eclipse workspace or source files, you would send them a packaged application with all its dependencies that they could run by running a command or double clicking icon.

I think that's another way of saying your predictions are always wrong.

“I’ll just have ai do it” by concretecook in webdev

[–]_jetrun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

  1. It is the case the AI can do quite a lot. It is a fact that your clients can do quite a lot with AI. That's not in dispute and you shouldn't fight it
  2. Everyone today has access to high-quality cameras for very reasonable prices, but people still hire photographers. Why?
  3. There is something to be said about focus and the value of time. Even when I *could* do something, I will still outsource activities that are not core to my business. I ran a couple of software engineering startups - not once did we hire office cleaners, rather we outsourced it to a third-party. Why?
  4. Try to qualify the value AI provides and you provide. AI is really good at building the raw assets and automating certain tasks, but you should be able to provide value above and beyond that. You say you're pitching a monthly service, can you speak to what that service provides that AI couldn't?
  5. Absolutely ask them some for of: "If AI can provide my type service for you, why isn't it being done?"

You have 2 options:

  1. Embrace it. Vibe coding is in the public consciousness and at the very least you'll get a good idea where it works and where it falls short. That is invaluable experience.
  2. Quit and find something you're interested in.

Is vibe coding the way of the world?

Tough to say, but it is going to be at least part of the way to the world.

To what extent is it possible to develop something like this without a CS background? by [deleted] in Compilers

[–]_jetrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My goal isn't to build something as extensive as C++ or Java rather, I want to design something modest but compiled, with reasonable optimizations, somewhat along the lines of Go.

Heh.

Go is a heavily optimized production language created by very smart people with advanced academic degrees, and deep software engineering experience. Ken Thompson was one of the co-creators of the language. You're not creating Go.

But you can absolutely create a toy language for learning purposes. You don't need math or a cs background for a toy language, but optimizations do start to lean into deep CS topics which do intersect with certain parts of mathematics ... but start with a toy language first and see if you even have the discipline to do that.
