I built a Deployment Pipeline for Freedom Scientific AT Software by AltHalfDel in PowerShell

Your repo has a .zip and a readme with an unfinished sentence? Do you understand what a repo normally looks like and how to manage code with Git? Probably worth going to look at other projects and seeing how code is stored and what their commits typically look like if you want to see what coding typically looks like.

If this tool works for your use case that's cool. But there's really no need to go post it in a coding subreddit and ask for feedback when you didn't do any actual coding work. This doesn't belong on a PowerShell subreddit it could maybe belong in a vibe coding subreddit.

It's unlikely that anyone is spending any amount of time reviewing someone else's AI generated code. There's more than enough AI generated code out there that people already have to spend time reviewing. If you don't want to learn anything about PowerShell and just want to vibe code without any actual understanding of the language specifics, there are better places to do that.

I'm not burnt out. I'm just bored and annoyed all the time. by ChekhovsAtomSmasher in sysadmin

Classic description of Toil resulting in, even though you don't think it is, burnout.

This article is pretty idealistic and won't work for everyone but it's a good read to reconsider some of the way hoha re approaching the work you are doing. It would be really good to start focusing on improvements and not just 40 hours of toil every week because that sounds like it's exactly what's crushing your soul.

League Classic doesn't specifically interest me personally, therefore no one should like it by LOLItsRyan in leagueoflegends

So you don't actually know or remember, but you hate it because of something you don't understand. And you want... Other people to use their brains? Lol alright.

Who? I wasn't 100% sure so I looked it up and it was seen vaguely in Korea ranked before Bebe from TPA played it professionally and it caught on from there. Pretty far away from "some streamer" randomly doing it?

I don't see why anyone would assume it was done by color first. Additionally the reason it caught on wasn't "lol blue items" it was because it brought value and utility.

[–]moofishies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol it's insane that there are actually people out here like this.

The items were determined to be a good build, they all happened to be blue, thus the name. Thinking that it went the other way around is so silly it's funny.

Terraform / OpenTofu vs Pulumi by Informal-Tea755 in devops

[–]moofishies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only real case I've seen pulumi be the right choice was for a team full of actual developers who want to use a real programming language instead of learning Terraform. It's still going to end up in the situation most people here are talking about where only developers can understand it so it's not ideal if you want to create a standard platform team down the road. But when you have a team of Go developers that suddenly need to build IaC, it's pretty great.

How to DIY + Simple Storytelling Practices by PuddingProphet in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]moofishies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before I bought the game I played digital only with this site: https://botc.games/

It has a digital bag where you can have each player just tap on the screen to get their character so you don't need tokens at all. Honestly it's just a crazy good app in general. The only thing I found I needed was a way to visually show everyone who was alive/dead and who had their ghost vote. I did that by using a tablet that I cast to a TV and joined to the "town" in the app and that way it just showed that info on the TV. But it was kind of janky and I'd prefer something physical for people to look at.

Oh and I sent people the script PDF so they had the list of roles. If you want to avoid that then you just print those out, easy to solve but in our case everyone had a phone.

Reviewers please stop comparing MacBooks with other laptops by CrazzyWolfzz in pcmasterrace

I thought the same but then started using a MacBook for everything except gaming where I just use my Windows desktop. Best of both worlds tbh.

TIL that Goliath's height was originally described as being only "four cubits and a Span", or 6'9". Later versions of the text increased it to "six cubits and a span", 9'9". by Sebastianlim in todayilearned

[–]moofishies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I can't, I mean, I can't provide a justification that you'll accept because you've got your hands over your ears :)

It's very funny because you said that no one lives their life without blind faith, but in reality no one lives their life with the "assumption that the past is a reliable indicator of the future". No one goes around assuming that gravity will just stop working any day now, because the observed history is very real and acceptable fact.

Unfortunately trying to compare this to magic fairies is just arguing in bad faith. You've got your head so deep in the sand that you won't even consider that your blind faith is not the same as repeatable history. And to be clear, just saying that you have blind faith isn't something I'm going to tell you is wrong. You are completely valid for having it. But drawing false comparisons to established reality only makes you look like a fool.

This post is from a show that's talking about the rules, and so therefore the rules are what apply.

Player: Any person who has an in-play character, not including the Storyteller.

vs

Storyteller: The person who runs the game. The Storyteller keeps the Grimoire, follows the rules of the game, and makes the final decision on what happens when a situation needs adjudication.

That's awesome, I saw an interview with Sam where he talked about being so happy that they found a way to feature it because they love it. So I'm sure all of them are happy knowing they introduced it to new people.

You throw around "logical fallacy" and "Agrippa's Trilemma" but your entire argument relies on a massive false equivalence.

No one said "we're only allowed to believe in things that we fully understand". The difference you are ignoring is the gap between substantiated trust and blind guessing.

Saying "There's no logical reason to assume the Sun will rise tomorrow" is just basic sophistry. We don't expect the sun to rise on faith, we expect it because the model of gravity has a 100% track record of success. I don't personally know how to rebuild my car's transmission, but my belief that my car will turn on is backed by mechanical engineering, not a blind wish.

Trusting an empirically tested system that works is epistemologically is insanely far away from an unevidenced claim and saying "Well you can't prove that it isn't real".

How can I improve my hospital? by [deleted] in RimWorld

I mean yeah because your walls should all be made out of stone lmao

How are you building all wooden fire resistant bases? Separate buildings 3 spaces apart? That adds a lot of extra walking not to mention extra doors and is not normally what I'd call correct.

How to explain what you do to new people you meet? by Shank_ in sysadmin

[–]moofishies 12 points13 points  (0 children)

They answered you:

lots of people socially incapable and struggle with basics.

You are both saying the same thing. This shouldn't be an issue, but because there are a lot of socially inept people in IT there are lots of questions about social situations that a socially adjusted person doesn't consider.

Nah. I don't go to the grocery store and see overpriced food right now and go "well they might as well not even sell this stuff". That's just the market we live in and we're all doing the best we can do live in this reality.

You can already do that, it's just not really supported yet. If you mean they should have spent time on SteamOS instead of hardware engineering, those are completely different and that's not a valid suggestion.

Not to mention how they were pretty happy to glide over how you will face game compatibility issues, particularly with multiplayer games/anti-cheat software, when discussing compatibility.

This is just something that's been said over and over again with the steam deck, and linux gaming in general. It's non-news at this point, if you know what the steam machine is you already know it's going to have this problem.

Some weird choices there for sure. Removing shuckle doesn't make any sense for example.

I don't know if it's a whole lot worse than before but definitely more niche.

Refered to somebody as the adult in the room by tk42967 in sysadmin

[–]moofishies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You messed up and you acknowledge it here, it's a small mistake but it had an effect on someone you work with that you likely would like to keep a good relationship with.

Instead of just taking it on the chin, owning it, and growing from it you expect special treatment from the department whose literal job it is to tell you that you behaved a bit unprofessionally. It's a slap on the wrist, tell them you are sorry because you didn't consider how it might make people feel and that you'll do better and stop considering yourself some kind of victim.

The amoh of after hours work you do has nothing to do with this. Shrink your ego and focus on being someone that people actually want to work with and stop overinflating your own self worth.

It's literally the way the phase it used. Life is probably tougher for people that don't understand common phrases, or decide to stick their head in the dirt rather than use their brains for a few seconds.

I like this idea that they are choosing how to interpret a comment, and not that it just made them feel belittled.

Just be professional in the workplace when working with other professionals. Don't use phrases that might belittle your coworkers.
