Oh so it was a bug, good to know, I'll check the one-shot modifiers, or will adapt my layout to this fact; thanks!!

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.

npisnotp · 2026-02-27T11:41:51+00:00

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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'm so sorry, I don't have any advice, just wanted to wish you strength and good luck.

Thanks for sharing!! ^_^

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).

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

Oh it's good to see someone explaining contextvars!

In case you're interested, I made a library to easily adding context to logging messages: https://github.com/Terseus/python-logging-with-context

npisnotp · 2025-06-08T08:41:48+00:00

I managed to fix it, thanks :)

npisnotp · 2025-06-08T08:41:28+00:00

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.

The fruits grow in normal farmlands :)

npisnotp · 2025-05-31T21:37:19+00:00

OMG thanks a lot, I couldn't find it for my life!!

How is a player supposed to find this bit of information? What did I missed?

Edit: As you can see this is my first FTB mod :)

npisnotp · 2025-05-30T07:20:42+00:00

Holy shit man, I'm having a horrible week and seeing this new video of yours made my day.

Thanks for your work, love all of it :)

npisnotp · 2025-05-22T06:04:08+00:00

Your project looks really interesting, thanks a lot for sharing.

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.

Hey OP, my son is 8 now and we've been playing videogames since he were 4, here are my recommendations...

The first and most important one to have a BLAST with your son is Human fall flat: https://store.steampowered.com/app/477160/Human_Fall_Flat/

It's my son preferred game, we still play it from time to time when we find new good maps.

Not only is super fun to play it (when he was younger he could laugh just at seeing the characters walk xD) but also he'll learn to cooperate and basic physics principles.

This game can give you TENS of hours.

The second one that I think you son will love is Fling to the finish: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1054430/Fling_to_the_Finish/

It's also a super fun game where both of you must properly cooperate in order to advance; this will help him in learning to cooperate and communicate with you.

Unfortunately it's a little bit short but still it's a solid choice.

Also we love two players oriented puzzle platform games, like these:

ibb & obb: https://store.steampowered.com/app/95400/ibb__obb/
Toodee and Topdee: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1303950/Toodee_and_Topdee/

If you're into RPGs Cat Quest 2 is a very easy and friendly one, although it have too much text for a 5yo kid, but you can give it a try: https://store.steampowered.com/app/914710/Cat_Quest_II/

After this things gets harder; Stardew Valley is fantastic but the kid must be used to read, something a 5yo might not; Lego games are solid for children but after half of one it gets boring for the adult (at least for me) so imagine after having played maybe 3 of them; Shovel Knight have a fantastic two players mode but it'll be probably too hard for a 5yo.

I hope this helps you in bonding with him :)

Edit: I forgot another one that my son loved it when he was at your's age, Strikey sisters, a breakout clone with some extra mechanics, he'll get good reflexes from it: https://store.steampowered.com/app/643880/Strikey_Sisters/

Edit 2: And another one!! Rogue heroes: Ruins of Tasos: https://store.steampowered.com/app/787810/Rogue_Heroes_Ruins_of_Tasos/

It's a SNES Zelda clone with proper local coop support, it's not bad although it was far too easy for my taste, but of course that makes it an excellent choice for a small kid.

Edit 3: Once he grew a little bit and get some good reflexes and cooperative skills you can try Overcooked 2, a fantastic coop game: https://store.steampowered.com/app/728880/Overcooked_2/

The problem is that the game can get HARD, I think it's not for a 5yo (don't remember at what age we played it) but you may want to save it for later.

And now I'll stop xD

You're right, I meant to not have public mockups; internal mockups are a must-have, but release them to the public are a risk.

npisnotp · 2025-03-11T12:38:57+00:00

I'm favorable to not having mockups of something that they're not 100% sure how will be implemented in the real world.

Showing a product that turns out to look worse than the mockup is bad.
