All respect to JetBrains, I’ve loved several of their IDEs… This was a dumb idea from the start. Way too niche and specialized. Honestly the allure of a purpose built language specific IDE is losing it’s lusture as well with modern architectures often blending several languages, configuration frameworks, IaC…

This is canon in the Doc Ock as Spider-Man arc.

It’s a version of VSCode with deep AI integration. I’ll say, it’s pretty good from a workflow perspective. But I just use Avante to similar effect.

Probably!

Everyone at work is using Cursor these days, except for me using neovim and my emacs loving coworker. When we present during pair programming our coworkers go nuts over watching our workflows and trying to figure out if they can do similar things in Cursor lol.

Sorry about that, I’m seeing the same. Here’s the site linked from the Internet Archive

The NASA secure coding standards are overbearing, obnoxious, over-engineered, and a huge waste of effort.

But they are absolutely correct and the best guidelines I’m aware of.

Jurassic Park. Though at the time I suppose it could have been a more direct Unix descendant.

Wayne’s World 2 (yes there’s a 2) Garth talks to a girl about the Unix book she’s carrying.

Antitrust, but that’s kind of cheating

In the Iron Man movies his server cluster is a couple of Oracle racks, so probably running either Solaris or Oracle Linux.

Better than Smeagulls I suppose.

Milkman. It’s simple and I’ve seen bugs where it hangs, but overall it works well, doesn’t require a login, runs local, is open source, supports postman import, and exports to a nice variety of formats

Honestly with the clothes I thought it was a star trek away mission.

Gladly!

I’d pay to see that fan cut.

No idea how I’m supposed to take this ranty blog needlessly interspersed with furry cartoons seriously. But it’s basically just restating (poorly) all the same criticisms and alternatives written about here: https://www.latacora.com/blog/2019/07/16/the-pgp-problem/

The ‘real’ criticisms of PGP are that it’s old, it’s clunky, and it doesn’t support forward secrecy by design. None of that is invalid, but I think the importance of those points depends on the use case and user.

The alternatives given are myriad and complexity and clunkiness are interspersed between dozens of solutions instead of well understood and documented in one tool.

That isn’t a superior approach. I’m not arguing that PGP is perfect, but it’s absolutely asinine to suggest (like this blog and others suggest) that the solution is to use dozens of other solutions with their own problems and with less auditing.

If we’re going to replace PGP, we need to do it properly in a centralized library/toolchain. Breaking up the solution and spreading it around just magnifies the problems.

The “real meaning” of Christmas was getting the pagans on board with Christianity, don’t let anyone lie to you otherwise lol.

What the hell are you on about?

Who’s “we”?

But, sure, sometimes everyone is. And sometimes we’re not.

Nothing is black and white, and anyone who pretends otherwise is either a simpleton or is selling you something.

Refusing to meet bad actors with unified strength and yes, violence when necessary, only encourages more bad actors and actions.

This is a universal truth too many in our peaceful time have forgotten, and so the wheel is turning back towards authoritarianism and violence.

I’m not really a webdev, more backend or full stack at this point. I do know about C & C++ strong presence in firmware, OS, HPC, video gaming, and elsewhere.

But by the numbers there’s a lot more webdevs than any other kind out there, and that doesn’t even touch on NodeJS leaking into backend and elsewhere.
