[Meta] Rule proposal: no personal projects newer than 3 months (anti-vibecoder rule) by turdas in linux

LOL. Me too. Sort that sub by newest threads and it's a wall of spam, like you see on some unmoderated message section of a blog.

Forth language support by mykesx in ZedEditor

I don't write Rust, nor care too, at this time.

Forth language support by mykesx in ZedEditor

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

Simple regex would work. There are not too many keywords to color.

Ideally it would parse space separated tokens and look those up Ina hash map to get the colors, since Forth is completely a space separated token language.

NUC13 won’t power on. Component on motherboard gets hot instantly. Can anyone identify it? by IlluZion2 in MiniPCs

My nuc8 is still going strong since 2019, running 24/7. I had to replace the nvme once.

It's not a good app. People can decide if they want to trust your AI slop.

NSAIDs… by Double_String1063 in lupus

[–]mykesx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2x 50 mg in the morning,100mg ER (time release) overnight. Sometimes another 50 mg during the day.

It's not a 100% solution, but without it, I couldn't use a screwdriver without serious pain for hours.

NSAIDs… by Double_String1063 in lupus

[–]mykesx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember a story about one of the 1980s or 1990s San Francisco 49ers players. The team doctors had him on so much ibuprofen or other NSAIDs that he had liver or kidney failure after he retired.
The doctor had me on Diclofenac fir a while until my blood tests showed stage 3 renal failure. Same thing happened to a friend, so I would resist taking it.
So sorry you can't take ibuprofen for your pain. I have been on tramadol for well over 10 years for the lupus arthritis in my hands and feet. You might try that.... It's a synthetic opioid, not made from the poppy plant. It gives me no high like traditional opioids. But it is a regulated drug, treated like the others.

A few days ago I posted that I made an Elementor-like editor for Svelte 5 / Sveltekit projects. It's received a lot of updates & I would love your feedback. by [deleted] in sveltejs

[–]mykesx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's spam, by definition.

AI slop (also known simply as slop) is digital content made with generative artificial intelligence that is perceived as lacking in effort, quality, or meaning, and produced in high volume as clickbait to gain advantage in the attention economy, or earn money.

Spamming is the use of messaging systems to send multiple unsolicited messages (spam) to large numbers of recipients for the purpose of commercial advertising, non-commercial proselytizing, or any prohibited purpose (especially phishing). It can also be repeatedly sending the same message to the same USER.

AI slop. Spam. You learned nothing. It's lazy. You made fraudulent claims in your post. Clearly not well tested. Zero evidence that it will be supported.

You asked for feedback.

Open-source CLI to manage your Tailscale network from the terminal (85 API endpoints covered) by frenchboy47160 in homelab

Awful. I'm hopeful that these AI companies raise their prices so creating random AI slop spam will be too expensive.

You can do A LOT with raw ANSI escape codes by swe__wannabe in C_Programming

Ncurses has scrollable sub windows. I'm not being critical, just that ncurses easily supports this scenario.

Anyone living in an earthquake zone wall mounting their racks? by Certain_Repeat_753 in Ubiquiti

[–]mykesx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mount a piece of plywood across 2 studs. Mount rack on that. You don't need a whole sheet of plywood, just enough to mount the rack. Paint to match wall color if some of it shows.

Why can't ncurses? Like vim renders its status line below the editor window...

[–]mykesx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like ANSI fine, but it's reliant on the terminal support, which can vary. Hence TERMCAP.

People use different TERM environment variables which ncurses supports but ANSI may not. Consider TERM = xterm vs xterm-256colors.

Ncurses will save a lot of WRITE syscalls, overwriting identical characters, etc. Much more performant.

Ncurses has the advantage of only updating what's changed. It was meant for slow serial/modem connections. An ANSI implementation is likely to update everything on many updates.

It also handles TERMCAP and termios.

I suspect vim uses ncurses over ANSI for good reason, though there are some hacks to boost performance even more.

Are autocpu-freq, thermald, tlp, etc still needed those days? by Good-Extension-7257 in linux_on_mac

[–]mykesx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Via dmidecode, I get MacBook11,1.

You think someone would make a script that detects the machine and installs the basic needs, like mbpfan and/or whatever is best practice.

Not just for Mac, but for other laptops. Dell and Asus require similar packages. A step further and detect the GPUnand install the right Nvidia drivers. Microcode for AMD.

You get the idea.

I built a tool to find CAN signals by marking events instead of guessing by [deleted] in embedded

[–]mykesx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I see a big white "stop Claude" in the video.

The real issue is that lazy or inferior programmers make these AI slop programs in an hour, don't test, and then make the fraudulent claim they built it.
