bagolon Ah, the Codeberg Drama

Banning LLM or crypto currency related projects is very bad. I think it's better to flag them or mark them, but let them be.

bagolon GPT-5.6 Sol Ultra will be in Codex

You.

bagolon Ask HN: Has anyone replaced Claude/GPT with a local model for daily coding?

I wish I could. But, the hardware requirements are just too expensive for me.

bagolon DuckDuckGo search saw 28% more visits after Google said people love AI mode

Duckduckgo is blocked in my country. Reddit is blocked in my country. My country is also one of first countries agree to ban free (non playstore) android app installation. My country is so against freedom. What a shitty country.

bagolon Rust Memory Management: Ownership vs. Reference Counting

Good thing about rust is it forces you to write code in disciplined manner. I remember myself fighting those rules. Until it becomes natural to me and I can detect why the compiler rejected my code without reading the compiler error (for a simple one of course, but not syntax error). And that habit of carefully writing good code without slowing down carries over when I'm writing code in other languages.

bagolon HTTPS by default

How dangerous is plain http?

bagolon What we talk about when we talk about sideloading

Installing software via Google play store is the actual side loading. You don't install it yourself, Google install it for you.

bagolon Petition to stop Google from restricting sideloading and FOSS apps

I just realized how powerless we are. The situation is almost unavoidable. Majority people will just accept this. They are unaware how restricted they are, thus they don't care.

bagolon Fast Type-Aware Linting in Oxlint

How does it compare to biome?

bagolon Streaming services are driving viewers back to piracy

Ads for a paying member? That is just... evil?

bagolon Windows XP Professional

Huh? I thought the serial numbers are available for free in the internet.

bagolon New Date("wtf") – How well do you know JavaScript's Date class?

I'm curious how would a formal spec define those behaviors.

bagolon Half a century of SQL

The only problem I have with SQL is that `SELECT` comes first instead of last. It prevents the development of good tooling.

bagolon Tine Text Editor

Well. Most terminal based editor works like that.

bagolon FFmpeg 6.1 released

What is the original vision of the internet?

bagolon Fedora 39 Released

Every year is the year of the Linux desktop.

bagolon UseHooks – A Collection of Server Component Safe React Hooks

Are you referring to this https://journal.stuffwithstuff.com/2015/02/01/what-color-is-...?

bagolon Ways to shoot yourself in the foot with Postgres

Anyone not using ORM, will eventually build his own ORM (or at least query builder). I think the argument is not about "not using ORM", but more about "not using ORM made by someone else".

I've been programming only for 8 years almost every single day. I've never do professional programming before, except teaching how to program. Well, I am actually a teacher. I'm looking for experience to do programming professionally.

bagolon Why aren't smart people happier?

I think it's because happiness is not about solving problems, but it is about getting what you want.

bagolon Linux Ate My RAM

It's neither bug nor human bug. It is a misconception of those who already familiar with windows, and most of new Linux users are come from windows.

Linux folks say that unused memory is not good, of course it is. Windows folks say that free memory is a good thing, and of course it is.

See? It actually is the same thing that being seen from different perspective.
