The hard problems are the only reason I like programming. If 90% of my job was repetitive boilerplate, I’d probably be looking elsewhere.
I really dislike how LLMs are flooding the internet with a seemingly infinite amount of half-broken TODO-app style programs with no care at all for improving things or doing something actually unique.
I can’t wait for hamster wheel version 12! So much more range than v1
somebody in the room will ask what the flight ceiling is
Sir, this is a Wendy’s
The real flaw in the diagram is that all the intermediate steps of Agile are usable products. All 5 of those are completed, sellable products. Agile pivots way before any of these become usable.
Usually signalling for help isn’t something you leave to day 2… I think they might just be taking a vacation.
I’ve actually noticed this exact thing with elevators before… I was kind of amazed the beep and light were hooked up completely independently from the actual floor selection logic.
It sort of makes sense that the light in the button would just be hooked directly up to the button contacts. The computer would then be polling the buttons separately and it’s possible to miss a button press…
These sorts of buttons shouldn’t need a debounce period since pressing any of them a second time doesn’t do anything. If the buttons were interrupt based, this probably wouldn’t happen.
Or just std::bitset<8> for C++.
Bit fields are neat though, it can store weird stuff like a 3 bit integer, packed next to booleans
Thanks for responding. I’m not really a web dev, so I haven’t thought about it much.
The tab layout and <div> examples were definitely not things I was thinking about. I guess that’s a good incentive to use tags like <section> and <article> instead of divs with CSS classes.
I’m actually a bit color blind myself, so I appreciate sites being high contrast and not relying on color alone for indicators. A surprising number of sites completely break when trying to zoom in and make text bigger too, which is often due to bad floating layouts. Especially if it’s resized with JS…
I’m curious what parts would be challenging to use with a screen reader? If a site just has basic links and no JS, I can’t really think of anything unless the tab layout is somehow completely shuffled due CSS.
This was all people were talking about when they bought GitHub. We’ve past the “Extend” stage now.
For NASA, data types don’t matter when you’re programming Voyager 1 and 45 years later it gets hit by an energy burst causing 3% of the RAM to become unusable, and it’s transmitting gibberish. It’s awesome they were able to recover it.
This still isn’t specific enough to specify exactly what the computer will do. There are an infinite number of python programs that could print Hello World in the terminal.
You can send 4xx errors yourself too. If the client needs to change something about the request, that’s a 4xx, like 400 Bad Request. If the server has an error and it’s not the client’s fault, that’s a 5xx like 502 Bad Gateway.
The wikipedia listing of all HTTP codes is quite helpful. People also forget you can send a custom response body with a 4xx or 5xx error. So you can still make a custom JSON error message.
If those vibe coders knew what a binary tree was, they’d be very upset.
Is that even a thing on lemmy? Or are you thinking it’s just force of habit?
But then they’d have a dev team who wrote the code and therefore knows how it works.
In this case, the hackers might understand the code better than the “author” because they’ve been working in it longer.
Imo if they can’t max out their harddrive for at least 24 hours without it breaking, their computer was already broken. They just didn’t know it yet.
Any reasonable SSD would just throttle if it was getting too hot, and I’ve never heard of a HDD overheating on its own, only if there’s some external heat sources, like running it in a 60°C room
Yeah, there’s an awesome video on aluminum drink cans from TheEngineerGuy on YouTube. The ideal shape for holding pressure with minimal material is a sphere, but there’s 2 problems with that: They roll, and can’t be packed as efficiently as cylinders.
Oh good point, another downside of the taller shape. More surface area = warms faster and uses more aluminum.
This is a discussion about liberals in the US, not the liberal party of Canada, which is decidedly left of US politics as a whole.
