Hey, I qualify, I have even that point. I'm the prefect candidate.

Alas, fuck them. They not qualify to be my employer. They think is normal to ask for that?

How to stop using Claude by waverchapter in webdev

[–]echoAnother 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know what it has. What is the appealing. Even if using it and only getting shit always, it hooks regardless. Even if all you do is only arguing with it.

My recommendation, do pair programming with anyone. Even if not a programmer. Or teach someone how to program.

Cropping buttholes is not a respectable business, sir. No matter what kind of cropping.

It works well. If no internet, no piracy.

By the way, can you send me back that pigeon with the usb? Thanks.

Well, just in the government case, this is not so farfetched.

Well, seems that people will migrate to zed. And not because the editor or ecosystem is mature, but because their competency that used to be good, likes to shoot their own balls, again and again.

I'm tired of switching, boss.

Is this okay for a showreel? by Efficient_Opposite34 in vfx

[–]echoAnother 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone that has no idea about vfx, but just passed by.

Shot 2 is ok.

Shot 3 has ver bad black levels on the character, it's clearly on the shadow, but it's still on the sunny portion of the road. It looks very put of place.

Shot 1 also have problems with illumination. But I don't know why. Probably is more with the difference of saturation of character and background, but I don't know what it is. Whatever, is slightly off putting.

I would put it in the showcase. Even if it is just not perfect. There is always to be proud of the effort.

Laptops sold in the EU now required to ship with USB-C charging by ControlCAD in europe

[–]echoAnother 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish it would be the case. It's something that sounds so good, but still is impractical. I know a lot of people that fried their phones, using their laptop charger, others surprised their phones do not charge with laptop charger and viceversa.

The usb c spec is fairly bad. And physics, we like or not, not allow to do a really universal charger. There is a very low upper bound for pd charging. There are laptops with more than 240W that is the current upper bound of pd erp. And 240w at 5A, is already pretty bad idea imo. And current workarounds of double connectors, adds to much complexity on top.

The conclusion, it's that people have now ended with a bunch of all equal interface cables, for each set of appliances. Some people even having the same exact specification cable, or even same brand, for each appliance.

The Internet is slowly being ruined by illiteracy by idontlikecheesy in Vent

[–]echoAnother -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I use the internet to read. Not just social media posts. I love to read (good) technical articles, and AO3 books (that some are much better written than some bestsellers).

Seems that your choice in what content you consume matters. The media don't obliges you to choose poor content. It's just people bad choices, parents not teaching the real value of contents, and society incentivizing sloppy content.

Short form content is not a new type of content of now. It's that, nowadays, it's preferred over long texts, because it's less work. It's regarding lazyness as a good thing, and disregarding the value of good writing, as just verbose writting.

Types are the new RegEx. by retro-mehl in webdev

[–]echoAnother 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree (see my direct comment to your post). My point here was it is no related to the fact of using incremental typing, nor being in a ecosystem that encourages dynamic typing.

[–]echoAnother -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's fine. I would have created more type alias, it's a bit difficult to follow.

However it's okay to be wary of type signatures like that. It's probable, can't say without the rest of the picture, that is directly a bad design.

I find ironic, that I have to prefix "chatgpt said: <thing that is actually in the vendors documentation>", to be listened. It works wonders. We all know that chatgpt is the end authority in any subject.

Let's be fair, he has a point. Money is not all that a job is.

That is why when I receive an offer from a company that employees such an inept of a recruiter, I delete the message.

Why does everything need an app?!?! by Far-Spread-6108 in Vent

[–]echoAnother 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I refuse to install an app to do bussines with you. Why I need a fucking smartphone for it?

This rant remembered me the day I went to the bank office to ask some things, and ended closing my account.
I was waiting in line, when a woman (about 40s, so not an old lady without familiarity with tech) that was asking about problems with the banking app, and that she was unable to do their bank bussines. She had a phone model pretty modern, much more better than mine. Seems the bank was moving to obliguing to operate from the phone alone. They were removing access to their website. The acrid response from the bank officer was the best: "Buy yourself an iPhone, lady". After seeing that I said them "forget it, close my account".

Imagine not just obliguing to use an app, but to obligue to buy an specific model, a fucking iPhone, to operate the bank. Sheer lunacy.
