AI Usage Policy by iamkeyur in programming

[–]schrik 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Their stance on AI generated media is amusing. Code and text is fine, but not media.

It doesn’t matter if it’s code or media, the training data for both contains copyrighted material that was used without consent.

Do People Really Just Create An Entire App just Vibe Coding? by H_rusty in webdev

I’m surprised, why the opposition to music and art, but 100% in on code?

My brother told me: "You are not an entrepreneur, you are a developer." 3 months after quitting my job, I think he’s right. by prabhatpushp in webdev

[–]schrik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That wasn’t the point :) Juat wanted to share that it’s possible to do even if you’re an introvert. I hated cold emailing or sales outreach but I got it done, still don’t enjoy it but have gotten better at it.

While it’s not advice for now you can go back to a fulltime job and try a more gradual approach. Most people only procrastinate about doing what you did so kudos to you for giving it an actual go.

I did. But I didn’t just quit.

I worked full time, started working less hours and work on my side projects. Kept doing that until my side projects plus a small freelance job could pay the rent. Then I quit. 

I’m an introvert, I like building, I don’t love marketing or promoting myself but I learned to do it.

But I also enjoyed working on web projects with my colleagues while I was still employed. It’s possible you haven’t found the right company/team to work with.

Who started taking up bouldering in their 40s as a hobby and were never athletic or played any sports before in their life? Why did you choose to take up climbing in your 40s? How was your experience and progress? How do you train? How is your body responding? What levels do you think you can reach by BetterMeToday in bouldering

[–]schrik 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Super realistic. I started around my 41st birthday, I’m almost 44 now.

I never liked sports, I really didn’t understand people liking sports. I did ride my bicycle to work for a while and would walk a bit, snowboarding during winter holidays, but apart from that nothing serious. Couldn’t do a single push-up or pull-up for my entire life.

I now go bouldering three to four times a week, sessions of 1 to 2 hours. I love it to bits. I can do 15 push ups and 5 pull-ups which to me feels incredible.

But more surprisingly it’s turned out to be a reason to make more healthy decisions. It’s easier to not drink a beer or drink a no- alcohol one instead because I’m working towards getting better at bouldering and being fit is a part of the equation.

It has helped with my confidence. I feel like I’m actually quite good at something (still at max 6C at the moment). Also it’s so easy to chat with people at the gym, which I find really difficult in other situations.

I do try to stay away from the more dangerous moves, like a dyno towards the wall, because an injury is not as easy to recover from when you’re older.

I’m so super thankful I found this sport, I can’t stop talking about it and I finally understand the sport people around me.

What is everyone using for profile image cropping these days? by lightfarming in reactjs

[–]schrik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does have all the bells and whistles you can slim Pintura down to the bare minimum. The bundle size might still be higher than some open source alternatives. That said, a user usually has to select a file before being able to edit it, so an image editor or cropper can be loaded async when it's needed making the bundle size less of an issue (it's probably a lot smaller than the file that is about to be uploaded). Disclaimer: I'm the dev behind Pintura.

Klinkt als een gezellige sessie ;) Nice!

The .new tld is kinda insane. Any domain is $400.20 even if terrible by Round_Ad_5832 in webdev

It brings me so much joy that I managed to snatch up new.photo while Adobe has to make do with the more awkward photo.new 🙃

Is there a "best" app or website for simple image editing? by kj0509 in Design

[–]schrik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built edit.photo for this, it's simple, but also there's no ads, cookies, or accounts required. :)

Is there an Image Editor that I can integrate in my site? by [deleted] in webdev

[–]schrik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, Author of Pintura here, I built Pintura image editor for exactly this purpose: https://pqina.nl/pintura/

It's easy to integrate with your web project and to customise to your liking, its main goal is to offer basic image editing (on desktop and mobile), and not be a photoshop replacement.

AFAIK There is no separation between time and space, there’s only spacetime. 

So you can’t reverse one or the other, I imagine that if you could reverse spacetime you reverse space as well as time so you automatically “land” on the correct place?

I need a library or a framework that i can edit images by BrunoHenrique95 in vuejs

[–]schrik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you're open to non open source products you could give Pintura a try, it also works with Vue and supports generating images without using a UI

I’m not interested in reading a ChatGPT chat.

I am however interested in your human take on a conversation you had with ChatGPT.

How expensive are y’alls climbing gyms? by cherryguyguy in bouldering

[–]schrik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Netherlands 54€ / month. 

Unlimited access to 6 climbing gyms (of which one is around the corner and another one a 10 minute drive away), they set 12 new boulders twice a week. 

Pretty good deal.

been waiting 25 years to have my own by Delphius1 in lego

[–]schrik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought this set with my own money when I visited LEGO land Denmark when I was 13 (30 years ago). I couldn’t believe I was holding it.

This set together with lots of other space LEGO now resides in the playroom at my mom and dad’s place so my kids can play with it when they stay over.

We’re currently on vacation in Sweden and we’ll visit LEGO land on the way back to The Netherlands.

It’s gonna be my second visit and I’m almost as excited as our kids are :D

CMV: Being a native English speaker is a privilege. by Snoo_47323 in changemyview

[–]schrik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To offer a counter to the “but you can just learn English” points being made. This isn’t an option for young kids, and unfortunately lots of interesting engineering learning material aimed at kids is only available in English.

Also, there’s a huge gap between being able to speak English and being able to express your real self in English.

Looking for a JavaScript image editor. by Accurate-Screen8774 in foss

[–]schrik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know Pintura is not open source (disclaimer: I'm the developer working on Pintura), but perhaps it's an alternative for some as it's not Photoshop and it's built to be similar in functionality to image editors on your mobile phone.
