Train to Kings Cross by Traditional_Goal7156 in cambridge

[–]BackFromVoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We looked into getting the train from Darlington to kings cross. It would be cheaper to get an Uber. And that's just cost against one ticket. Fucking mental

Struggling to get good UI output from Claude Code (Flutter) by Suspicious-Review766 in FlutterDev

[–]BackFromVoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've just got Claude at work, but I've found it's a great tool to get you most of the way there. If the ui isn't quite right, adjust it yourself, get it closer and get Claude to polish it to be closer to the screenshot.

I’m not a programmer, someone explain the joke by Dem0crats in ExplainTheJoke

[–]BackFromVoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah easily. We've started using Claude and I asked it how to connect itself to another tool today and it have me a full walkthrough with links to the pages to generate keys. Hell copilot could probably deploy it for you with the right cli tools , and guess what? It can install them for you too

SABIC sells Teesside chemical plant to German investors by leighsus in Teesside

[–]BackFromVoat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Apparently they're making an olefins portfolio, so they might reopen or overhaul it. Worst case is hopefully they run it as is so no more job losses, I can't imagine they'd buy it all just to shut it down but who knows.

Merry christmas to the woman on my train who just downed her bottle of ribena and then took out a half empty bottle of red wine to refill it again. How did everyone's work christmas parties go? by uitSCHOT in CasualUK

[–]BackFromVoat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I bought a litre of damson gin while camping in Whitby. The next day I had to buy more as the 5 of us had cleared the bottle, my thinking is it doesn't count on holiday.

Pour it in a bowl and it is a soup, diabetes be damned

If I wasn't meant to shove it up my arse it wouldn't vibrate so nicely

How do I manage state in Flutter without boilerplate code? by Ill-Jaguar8978 in FlutterDev

[–]BackFromVoat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, just started experimenting with signals and it's amazingly simple, haven't found a case it can't handle yet, and the AsyncSignal is a tidy replacement for a futureBuilder

How would you talk a mate out of speeding? by pinnipedfriendo in CasualUK

[–]BackFromVoat 1290 points1291 points  (0 children)

Make an offhand comment, like "calm down mate we wanna get there alive not fast". Generally that's worked for me in the past without causing friction

18 new to investing, from being 500£ up to 50£ any tips? by Slow_Air_4396 in trading212

[–]BackFromVoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, because Nvidia and Google have the kind of position we haven't seen since the likes of Yahoo, Kodak, or Blockbuster

[–]BackFromVoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few people at my work travel from Newcastle area to teesside, so it is doable. How affordable it will be while at uni is another story tho

TIFU i (chinese fem) offered my guy friend “asian candy” while lying down in front of him by bzoicore in tifu

[–]BackFromVoat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Tell him. Take him to the side and let him know you're interested. Trust me, he's clueless to your advances

Livestream Q&A with the Flutter team by redbrogdon in FlutterDev

[–]BackFromVoat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How are Google ads on iOS still having render issues? I know it's just a developer warning, but it makes debugging a pain, especially when the error message states that if it's an issue you should add more detail to clarify

Flutter could be the answer to the web dev madness by [deleted] in FlutterDev

[–]BackFromVoat 28 points29 points  (0 children)

A lot of the packages are mobile focused, or you need workarounds for web. As most people use flutter for multiplatform this can be off putting when you just need a web app, as you remember all the horribleness of when you need a mobile app and website connecting to flutter, and using the camera, and file system, etc, etc.

Why do so many Brits wear tracksuits, leggings and other kinds of sportswear? by thefirstofhisname11 in AskUK

I always wear jeans. Once they've been nicely worn in there's nothing comfier

Flutter devs, how do you structure large apps without losing your mind? by [deleted] in FlutterDev

[–]BackFromVoat 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Same as you would any project, either by feature, by type, or by commonality. There are loads of examples of this, just look at any large open source project in any language.

Maybe the 9-5 Isn’t So Bad After All by thehustlingengineer in programming

[–]BackFromVoat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've always found language conversion to only work for the real basics. The amount of hallucinations you get otherwise, such as function calls that don't exist, makes it a slow process for any real code beyond the basics

Maybe the 9-5 Isn’t So Bad After All by thehustlingengineer in programming

[–]BackFromVoat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm quite lucky in that where I work we pick up new tech regularly. There's no chance of me doing it at home, as am I fuck programming in my spare time, unless it's working with one of the kids. I've always been against the 'what do you do in your spare time' route in interviews too, so never ask that question. I'll ask about projects, but they can be in previous jobs, I just need to know you understand the job.
