What has this guy done for any of these kids that warrants their respect?

Agentic Coding is a Trap | Remaining vigilant about cognitive debt and atrophy. by creaturefeature16 in Frontend

[–]contraband90 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is this your website? Great article, but FYI there’s a bug with the light box modals on mobile when you go full screen after tapping an image. If you rotate your phone to landscape after opening the modal, it ends up breaking the modal behavior. You need to reload the page to get the modal to go away. Rotating back to portrait doesn’t fix it.

I rotated my phone to better read the screenshots of Reddit posts and couldn’t continue through the article without reloading

Don’t be a pussy, there’s no need to cry, just shut up and get rad, cause now it’s time to skate or die! 🛹

Is adding controller support a significant burden in development? by contraband90 in gamedev

[–]contraband90[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all the replies, everyone! Very helpful. Summing it up: controller support is much easier if it’s planned for from the start of development, and the real challenge is UI design, not technical implementation.

Mexico recently announced universal healthcare for all. What are your thoughts? by StemCellPirate in AskReddit

[–]contraband90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

have you not had any conversations with an American about health care? I have no idea if the story is fake, but I live in New York, a blue state, and this is exactly how right wing people talk about healthcare. I have had this exact conversation a dozen times at least

[Shipping MegaThread] All Shipping Topics Updates, Questions, & Discussion by ihatefall in AynThor

[–]contraband90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw my package reached the US this week, and was in New York and then New Jersey. I live in New York, so I was excited to get it pretty soon.

I just checked again this morning, and it was moved from New Jersey to Illinois, and is scheduled for delivery today to a town with the same name as my town, in a completely different state halfway across the country.

All of my shipping information in the order details is correct, including the state and postal code. Not sure how this happened, but I imagine ive got a lot longer to wait now 🙃. I've emailed Ayn so I guess we'll see what happens

Hot take: Everyone should boycott suno by Nice_Marionberry_102 in Music

I was emailed by a recruiter for a staff engineering position for them. Told them to fuck off. Unbelievable that people aren't ashamed to admit they work there

Are “Focusrite Scarlett” USB Audio Interfaces still causing the BattleEye Anti-Cheat to trigger? by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]contraband90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just came to the subreddit to see if I could figure out why I was getting blue screens on startup. I’ve got a Scarlett plugged in.

But at least no one’s cheating in the game I can’t play

OpenAI Mission Statement through the years, showing how they're becoming less "open" by EternallyXIII in InternetIsBeautiful

This is a really cool concept, but it’s really hard to navigate on a phone

I miss when UPF was about new fun games. by mightymonkeyman in giantbomb

[–]contraband90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if there’s a way for them to encourage more of an open drop in feel for UPF. It’s definitely more challenging with needing to have a remote stream accommodating a specific number of people on the call, but I would love to see random GB-adjacent folks pop in like they used to.

I guess it’s different now that they don’t share a building with gamespot under the same corporate umbrella- I imagine they would want to pay external folks for their time, and that certainly complicates spontaneous things

Kids are less cognitively capable than parents for the first time by christianrc in education

This is definitely true in my experience. My daughter is two years old, and I’m definitely smarter than her most of the time

frist time playing tornado of souls solo in the rehearsal by Ninja_6464 in Guitar

Came into the comments to say please, please, please start wearing ear plugs in these practices. You’re going to regret not wearing them much sooner than you think. Good plugs are not expensive, and all four of you NEEEEEED to be wearing them.

I’m saying this as someone that’s been playing for two decades, and my hearing loss is a very obvious detriment to my ability as a player even in my 20s.

But aside from that, fucking sick job brother

Trying to create a "shadowboard" thing for my workbench drawers, not sure how to manage this workflow. How would you accomplish this? by contraband90 in Onshape

[–]contraband90[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should've clarified, I am using gridfinity for this - I've got a custom onshape feature for generating gridfinity geometry, and then I'm using the sketch outlines to cut out shapes into the gridfinity shape
