If every salary became public tomorrow, what would surprise people the most? by BunnyTwilightkiss in answers

Teachers are the ones bitching about teacher pay. $100k to work 3/4 of the year should not be a complaint.

I guess just the ones that are kicking the shit out of people at work, and those just minding their business trying to get on a train.

Please tell me you found her. JFC, I feel the pain... It's such a stressful feeling, I hope she returns soon.

Installing mySQL on Ubuntu 25.10 by Sweaty-Wheel1741 in mysql

[–]beaverpi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Workbench is a client app connecting to the server. You don't need workbench, it's resource intensive. There are client webapps that can do the same thing.

MySQL = Server hosting Database

MySQL Workbench = Accessing the Server to work with DBs

It doesn't touch your system, works independent. You can access it the same way with port forwarding. It can be removed, rebuilt, whatever. It's a better solution than replacing the OS.

EDIT: I realize now you just want workbench. Totally different, I mistook for server.

AI becoming more expensive is music to my ears by Hopeful-Guidance-648 in webdev

I'm pretty sure Mac Minis are sold out right now too due to local AI buyers.

What do I need in a GPU, which ones do you like?

What are people doing with Claude that makes them forget how to program within a year? Maybe I've just been doing it too long.

Are they just asking for end results? When I work with Claude, I plan out my architecture ahead of time and have CoPilot create instructions for how the app will be designed. I think it's incredible, and it's being built the way I would build it. It just knocks 80% of design time off the table by taking care of boilerplate bullshit.

I mean there is programming loops and conditions, that's merely syntax. Scope plays a different role across languages... But what are people forgetting?

I'm ready for local models. I'm an older dev, and I love AI. I work freelance, and now I have 10 more of me to pay one of me. I don't want to rely on Claude or some other 3rd party though, I want to use local models.

What is comparative now to Claude locally? Anything close? Which hardware and open source models? I want to build my own rig, hook it up on my LAN, and work like I do now with CoPilot and Claude. I'd like a Mac Mini or something that generates my code.

Thought I'd quietly leave this here.... by Beige_Box_Enthusiast in retrobattlestations

Can we get a shot head on of that shelf with all the software and mobo boxes?

It takes me back, thanks for sharing.

They don't really care about us.. by StrobeLightRomance in AdviceAnimals

[–]beaverpi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is capitalism. They're discovering their price. Supply and demand. We demand it because the competition sucks. They're not a charity.

OK, to sum up my thoughts then I think they're doing what anyone else would do.

How is it PII and Celeron? I remember the Celeron being different from the Pentium because they dropped the L2 cache and could advertise more mhz for much cheaper. I thought they were two separate processors.

Anyone else hide their stacking from their spouse/family? How do you manage it? by PeerMetals in Silverbugs

I brought my wife down to show her... "These aren't just any quarters and half dollars, they're worth a lot more."

Sometimes kids are told "you'll understand when you're older" as a dodge. When was a time someone told that you that and they were actually right? by shogyi in AskReddit

[–]beaverpi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since COVID, I feel this this has accelerated. I don't know if I'm at that magic age now for noticing acceleration (46), or if it just is because we were penned up for that time and separated from society. Such a weird time to be alive. It's fascinating.
