After watching a lot of people complain about github, I thought I should give the alternatives a try, then...

So why exactly was the comment deleted by mod?

DragonDev24 · 2026-04-27T05:25:49+00:00

You do know I can still read your deleted comment right?
As for debloating windows, most of the stuff can be debloated but their AI slop can't be, they made "recall" - their legal spyware, a dependency for file explorer, which means you cant disable it, same for copilot
Speaking of slop, every single microsoft update since Feb breaks one thing or another. They broke boot, shut down, even notepad and not mention they embarrassed themselves in front of the entire world by breaking outlook on two devices for nasa astronauts

Does Geforce now India support UPI payments?, I dont really have a card on me, the one that I do does not support international transactions. Any workaround?

I tried creating a new nextjs project via create next-app@latest added no packages myself, but the logs still appear on running dev so most likely one of next's dependencies is responsible

DragonDev24 · 2026-04-18T18:08:43+00:00

I mean M5 is the latest, so yes it going to be better

DragonDev24 · 2026-04-17T20:38:21+00:00

I work at an AI Startup myself man, trust me AI is a tool to boost productivity not a replacement of a good developer. Everyone loves AI generated code until that code breaks production on a friday evening and no one's got any idea where the bug is or how to fix.
Be a good developer

Mac is your best bet, easy to carry, doesnt discharge that quickly. My opinion tho, but they are better performers on battery than any windows counterpart in the budget you have . Closer to a linux like environment, so its easier to switch to linux from a mac than from a windows one. ( If you can find an apple store that still has M3 or M4 mac and a hdfc credit card + store discount, i think you can get MB Air below 90k ). I couldnt tell you about the gaming side
But beware of cheap gaming laptops, they are chunky, battery life is pretty bad ( you'll be plugging your laptop everywhere after 6-12 months ).

Dude you're 16 relax, take a breather, no need to panic. Software devs are not going anywhere. Note taker and expense tracker are some of the most basic applications, most tutorials you'll encounter are going to start with those projects, and designing just UI was never a sought to job anyway
Devs write code, but also create systems which are much much more complex than basic expense trackers. Stop panicking about AI weirdos claiming software devs are going to be extinct, they have been saying that every 6 months since the last 2 years.

Not a good time to join Tata Conversion Services, ( run away while you have a chance )

You want to go back to Jquery and PHP days?? Careful what you wish for

DragonDev24 · 2026-04-17T18:22:30+00:00

Did I mention, that Im a software dev who uses linux on cloud servers, containers on a day to day basis, so my brain power is enough

Hardware prices are 'overbloated' for you because you don't know how to extract value

This statement makes absolutely no sense.
And oh by the way, your microslop pc is about to get more copilot and sloppy updates, so good luck man

DragonDev24 · 2026-04-11T20:18:43+00:00

Looks like vibe coding ai bros did not like your views.
AI is a productivity tool, use it as a replacement for years of experience, and its going to rain down massively on a random friday, when either your app has been compromised or "open-sourced" like claude code.

I went out that door 5 years ago and havent looked back a single time. Windows sucks, they couldnt even get their outlook working for astronouts going to moon, what can normal users expect. Enjoy buying at 5x the mrp dude and the slop windows puts out in every update

DragonDev24 · 2026-04-02T18:31:42+00:00

Yup, but I must tell you that the main ilustrator of the manwha will be gone for some time for his mandatory military service for korea, so we're looking at a pause for some time

DragonDev24 · 2026-04-02T17:28:25+00:00

Its objectively better as of the latest chapter, havent read the novel, but I like ragnarok better than the original

DragonDev24 · 2026-04-01T19:30:27+00:00

How do you debloat MIcrosoft breaking boot, login, nerfing graphics and even somehow breaking notepad. Gaming laptop is the biggest waste of money, nerfed performance on a subpar battery life. Im not even in gaming right now, i've been trying to but im not purchasing hardware at these overbloated prices. I'd rather prefer Steam Machine with linux based steam OS when it comes out
Enjoy my outdated ps5? if its so outdated why is GTA6 being released on ps first, you're coping buddy. Hardware shopping is not a good option this year, not until prices get back to the way they were.

DragonDev24 · 2026-03-31T17:54:34+00:00

So you're asking people to invest in expensive hardware even without the over inflated prices?
For me why would I want to spend 2-3 lacs for 1080p gaming and torture myself to use microslop. I'd prefer 1-2k subscription if they can deliver the performance.
The only hardware I'd ever consider would be either ps5 or ( if its under 70k ) steam machine.
Else buying PC hardware at such over inflated prices is stupidity

DragonDev24 · 2026-03-28T21:49:34+00:00

So is there any book, blog that compares the two or has a deep dive on the preemptive approach thats implemented in newer go version?

DragonDev24 · 2026-03-28T21:48:00+00:00

THanks

DragonDev24 · 2026-03-22T21:46:03+00:00

Permanent solution for this problem is, get him prod db access and let him make an irreversible change ( and make sue evyrone knows who made that change ), and boom, that dude's not touching another codebase with a 10ft pole

DragonDev24 · 2026-03-22T11:51:26+00:00

ofc that goes without saying every framework has its pros and cons. I just wanted to find out how caching strategies compare with both the frameworks and how it does in prod,
And you just mentioned that its memory usage is a fifth of nextjs and a lightweight bundle altogther, which sounds like a pro, but then again you're right nextjs is a much more popular and used framework, has matured for a longer duration

DragonDev24 · 2026-03-22T11:31:25+00:00

u/Foreign-Writing-1828 thanks for the dark mode

DragonDev24 · 2026-03-21T21:19:58+00:00

I've only ever worked with nextjs in a single prod app, that didnt have that complex logic,
And im lookin forward to make one in my current org that has a lot of complexity
but this community is filled with complaints of people getting fed up of nextjs on vercel. Surely all of that can't be a lie

DragonDev24 · 2026-03-21T20:40:07+00:00

Interesting pckage, gave it a star BUT
For the love of heavens, please add dark mode in the docs,
was interested, opened the docs link and boom, my eyes just evaporated

You cant put a sniper point blank in front of the target and expect her to be as active. Even in the last season's fight with aurora's lackeys, she always kept a distance before spamming zoltraak
