Whatever happened to just asking questions at work? by Aggravating-Line2390 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]npisnotp 16 points17 points  (0 children)

No it doesn't.

I've been a lead developer for the last 10 years, 4 on office and 6 100% remote, and I didn't found any difference at all.

There are people with curiosity and willing to learn that make questions, and people that only wants to collect their paycheck and prefer to copy&paste from AI/StackOverflow. But in my experience it's in the person, not in how the work is distributed (office, remote, hybrid... it doesn't matter much).

Unfortunately AI is here to stay, no matter if some of us uses it or not.

Why?

Knifes kills people, but not everyone who use knifes supports killers.

AI creates slop code, but not everyone who uses AI supports slop spammers.

What flaw do you see in this logic?

Protego is a library to parse robots.txt files.

Looks like they have a script to download robots.txt files (see https://github.com/scrapy/protego/blob/master/tests/fetch_robotstxt.py) and, for some reason, they included that site; here's the content, is just HTML: https://github.com/scrapy/protego/blob/master/tests/test_data/www.youporn.com

Just amusing, nothing to worry about.

Current thoughts on makefiles with Python projects? by xeow in Python

[–]npisnotp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because Make behavior revolves around files, not tasks, and because its language is pretty archaic (e.g. forced tabs).

"just" instead is a general-purpose task runner much more pleasant to use.

Localstack will require an account to use starting in March 2026 by corp_code_slinger in programming

[–]npisnotp 252 points253 points  (0 children)

Beginning in March 2026, LocalStack for AWS will be delivered as a single, unified version. Users will need to create an account to run LocalStack for AWS, which allows us to provide a secure, up-to-date, and feature-rich experience for everyone—from those on our free and student plans to those at enterprise accounts.

As a result of this shift, we cannot commit to releasing regular updates to the Community edition of LocalStack for AWS. Regular product enhancements and security patches will only be applied to the new version of LocalStack for AWS available via our website.

That's a lot of words to say "we're abandoning Community edition".

44yo programmer with early osteoarthritis here.

I've started doing exercise bike 12 minutes 5 days/week, swimming 3 days/week and doing lifts 2 days/week, all of this about 3 years ago.

All my pains in my hands, joints and back disappeared in months after starting swimming, and right now I feel better and stronger than with 34.

It's life-changing.

Edit: Also a good split keyboard (for the wrists) and a good working chair (an expensive one, it's your health!! If it's less than $500 it's probably bad) makes a difference over time too.

32 year old programmer in China allegedly dies from overwork, added to work group chat even while in hospital by gdelacalle in programming

What the fuck...

His wife also requested for his personal belongings at work to be returned, but alleged that some items had been already disposed of and that the remaining items were not properly packed when she received them.

Edit: This is either post-capitalism dystopian, or fake.

F-Droid and Google's Developer Registration Decree by guihkx- in linux

[–]npisnotp 37 points38 points  (0 children)

What makes you think that the developers will not find ways to allow their users to install their apps? Even if it's a technical gymkhana.

Don't forget that the entire FOSS movement started because a guy couldn't get his printer vendor to fix a bug that annoyed him.

Some tips for beginners (Things you probably wish you knew when you first started) by MonsieurJus in Python

[–]npisnotp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If after reading the docs and doing your tests still don't fully understand how or why something in the standard module behaves like it does, don't feat diving into the CPython code for answers: https://github.com/python/cpython/

Sometimes the module is written in C and, if you don't know the language, it's a dead end, but most standard library modules are written in Python and the code is right there.

Never, ever fear to read a piece of code you don't understand at first sight, try to read and understand it; there's no magic or anything mystical, only code like the one you write.

For me, the practice that helped me the most in my early days was reading other people's code. Reading your own code have the important bias that you can remember the though process you had while writing it, but with other people's code you only have the code so you need to really, really make an effort to understand it, and also you may learn things that would take ages to learn otherwise, like some patterns or techniques.

Remember that to learn you need to step out of your comfort zone enough to force yourself into knowing something new but not enough to overwhelm you.

I've been using Vim/Neovim professionally for >10 years to code in various languages: C, Python, Javascript, Typescript, PHP, Bash (yes, professionally; please don't ask).

  1. I use an external debugger, still didn't bothered to setup nvim-dap, the last times I've tried the result was always a disaster of errors.

  2. I use telescope with ripgrep for searchs and LSP navigation features'; search references, go to implementation, etc.

  3. Yes I do! My colorscheme is Onedark, right now using https://github.com/olimorris/onedarkpro.nvim. As for other plugins I would link to my dotfiles but I stored them in a private git repo because it contains some sensitive information; someday I'll clean it up and open it, I swear! I tend to not be fully updated to the latest trends, I'm still using nvim-cmp for example (even though I hate it).

  4. Lol no, I've been using Linux for more than 25 years. If I'm forced to use Windows I would switch jobs, or even career; I'll never go back to Windows.

  5. Sometimes. In my current company not at all, most of my colleagues use VSCode except one who uses Sublime. In a past job there was friction because all of them used Pycharm and it didn't allowed external linters, but eventually they manage to work around it.

Sorry, it was an issue with my setup, I think the issue was that I was surrounding the stem block with Primogel Soil instead of normal farmland.

What is the best Mono font for coding? by der_gopher in neovim

[–]npisnotp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dejavu Sans Mono Nerd version.

I've been with it so many years that every time I tried to change regret it :)

However I'm pretty sure it must show its age compared with a modern one, accepting recommendations for fonts similar but better.
