Very much true, something I struggle with a lot too.

You are aware that something else with that name exists? https://filamentphp.com/

I wanted to read the article about cookies but gave up after seeing this many ads.

Most jobs especially in webdev are like that. Most of it is just reheated slop, if the market was efficient the webdev market would shrink by 75%. I've done novel stuff but most of my jobs end up just pushing a star shape through a square and a triangle whilst making sure the whole legacy spaceship keeps floating.

There are truely novel webdev jobs out there, but they are a needle in a haystack. If you want something that mentally stimulates you as an developer find a job that doesnt involve web for higher chance of finding something that fits the bill.

Hug of death?

This is actually pretty hard to do. We all have heard of internet rot/dead internet theory.

One shout might be to link to internet archive instead of the resource directly. Though we can't be sure internet archive will keep the current system working as is (e.g. search params may change etc)

The only solid solution I have is to set up a foundation and pour money in so that they will be responsible for upkeep. But that would be an hassle to execute.

100 years in internet time is very long, internet as we know it now hasn't been along for 100 years.

I wonder if there aren't services that specialize in this.

Same here. Purely for scaffolding it's fine. But I won't let it decide implementation details. And have noticed the "copilot pause", slowing me down.

Maybe some day it will be good enough but that day is not now.

GraphQL is good at complex specificity. Leaving it to the caller how it wants its data structured in the return.

The struggle with it is more on the provider side. As you'd have horrible performance if you'd just rawdog an ORM onto it. The complexity of combining is where you'll struggle.

Last I played with GraphQL was with PHP. There is exactly one package that did GraphQL at that time. Where we had to define the models both in yaml and php.

Though this could probably be solved with dynamic building of the yaml.

Also last I checked the testing utils werent there yet.

Though it is really cool to be able to do supergraphs if you decide to do microservices.

Alternatives are json and protobuf. GraphQL kind of lands between big json blobs and protobuf's binary in size. Due to it's possible exactness. But that is wholly dependant on implementation.

I have a 12 thread 64GB RAM VPS for 30 euros a month

Honestly, ssh for running commands + mounting ir locally(SSHFS) works great for me, but I never was able to install FUSE correctly on Windows and it's a bit annoying to install on MacOS(third party kernel module)

I mainly run some code on it and the occasional gameserver so I have no need for a GUI though I have been entertaining the idea of using Rancher to maintain docker/k8 stuff

Technically my laptop is higher performance then the VPS but running my docker env alone takes about half the memory I have (16GB)

Those companies got value via selling products with a margin to their customers. So, technically their customers lost money for those companies to gain money.

Not that there is anything wrong with that. Just pointing out how I think your logic is flawed.

Not to be mean, but I disabled atlassian status notifications cause this happens a lot.

Look at Spotify for how freemium works

Freemium basically implies you can use 80% of the product but some juicy functionality is in the other 20%.

For example:

An image to pdf generator, but it can also do OCR. The free product has lasting value, but the premium option adds to it.

A trail is free but not freemium since it has no lasting impact.

I would instead use wording like: - try it - try now - try it now

This still works as an call to action but does not decieve the user

I feel you are going back to the early days of index websites before they realized the internet is to large to curate by hand and either died or became search engines.

I wish you luck though.

The one part I feel YouTube is failing currently is content suggestions, it used to be crap for years until it wasn't but it feels like it's goimg back to a hoshpot of weird and random suggestions where a year ago I felt like I wanted to watch 25% of the content now it's either 0 or 2 %

How would this even work? Normally for such signatures there is either a hierchy of trust (ssl) or you know them personally (PGP). Even if there was a working model, if Twitter itself got hacked, an account could just claim they lost their key and made a new one.

Why is Linux better? For general software development I'd say the toolchain, I haven't found a tool I needed not having a Linux version or alternative in a very long time.

Though if you release your games mainly on pc I'd say Windows is better due to being the platform most of your users will be on.

While major companies are pushing for Linux it will take decades from now to actually become the main platform. Due to a lot of reasons I won't go into, but being a programmer you can generally deal with them.

"provide funds for (a project or activity or the person carrying it out)."

So does a subscription or purchase. So not sure what you are trying to imply with this.

He gives access to stuff if you pay him money, with a promise of more stuff in the future. This just sounds like an subscription to me.

While I do agree there is a disconnect between open source dev payment and business, I don't think mislabeling a subscription as a donation does anyone any good.

From the outside it's a genuine question but from our side it feels like you ran into our car dealership wanting a car but knowing/telling nothing else.

So let me ask you some questions to see what kind of car fits best.

What do you want to learn?

Why do you want to learn it?

If you would be so kind as to answer those questions me or someone else will most likely be able to help.

You say you have an basic understanding of Python but it's hard for me to say what your level is.

That being said, what I would do is try to follow the resources out there and whenever you get stuck on concepts to google them: https://www.google.com/search?q=python+economics&oq=python+e...

I don't use Python often though so you'd better lean on someone else for good resources on Python itself.

I haven't yet. I'm currently dealing with such a project at work, that to be frank is impacting my mental health.

In the end, we are problem solvers first, programmers second.

If it's just bad code, you can solve it by just dealing with it as is whilst slowly improving it.

Wouldn't blockchain make more sense? (Never thought I would say this but here we are)

Problem with torrents/blockchain in this case are twofold:

- unless there is enough people using it, it's slow

- since you are basically crowdsourcing you need to create an enticing incentive which works for everyone involved

You can't build something that can compete with Google without some very very deep pockets and lot's of data.

Same problem with niche search engines, unless they have some unique features/properties that Google doesn't have you are plainly better off with Google.

Google has a Monopoly on search, which looking at the market will hold up for the foreseeable future.

So unless you can offer a specific feature(set) for a niche or you just want to build it for the hell of it I wouldn't reccomend anyone to go into search engines.

I would probably go with what duckduckgo does but offer unique features that are usefull for one or more niches.

Me sending: I have an owncloud server where I can release an file for a set amount of time with an password if it needs to be somewhat secure. It's not the most secure but I can just send them the link.

Me recieving: Generally an usb stick.

Though to be honest this doesn't happen to me often so I might act different if that were the case.

Kind of a broad question so I'll try to answer it with stuff I would like to know.

Arch + I3-gaps. (yes just like the running joke, also my dot files are heavily based on https://larbs.xyz) I use these IDE'S: Eclipse, Atom, VScode and (neo)vim.

Then I have these eco systems: - Luarocks - npm - composer - LLVM - android studio

I use this laptop/mobile workstation for both work and at home so it's all over the place.

Specs: - Intel I5 hex core - 16GB ram (ddr4) - Nvidia GTX1060M - mSATA 128 GB (linux + tools) - HDD 750GB (data, steam, etc)

I boot my laptop -> log in on tty1 -> keyring unlocks for session -> I3 launches(with video from the Nvidia card via passthrough) -> default stuff launches (firefox, thunderbird and terminal(tmux)) in their workspaces.

Your link produced an error: "An error occurred while processing your request. Reference #50.7f00655f.1562624656.56db9bd"

Just thought you should know.

In the meantime I think this is the article: https://m-cacm.acm.org/magazines/2016/7/204032-why-google-st...

It seems to be from 2016

When reading the title (which for some reason is cut off thus saying: "Microsoft admitted to private Linux developer security li") I thought Microsoft was up to it's old antics again.

Somehow I am dissatisfied that it isn't. I guess Microsoft is now one of the "good guys" since they don't focus on consumer market anymore.

I love the idea, but do you also get certificates? Sadly even in the IT world many corporate companies still require us to show some formal documents that show we do indeed have the skills we claim to have.

If not, I feel it will become an feedback loop where I can only get work from the website. Because I can't show an website to an prospective employer who isn't in on the loop.

Also as an possible educator, how would I get paid? Like do you take an percentage off from the freelance work then distribute between the "required" courses or how does that play out? or do I get an cut from the course payment?

Is there also a going to be a vetting process and/or course structure and/or acceptable courses depending on what they teach?

One last thing, why separately do accounts for instructors and enrolled people? What if I want to both teach and learn?

While I love the idea I think it'll be very hard to pull off for these reasons:

- psuedo code or you'd need to implement a lot of languages

- There are so many bloody patterns

- The time it would take to fully take an SAT like test without narrowing scope to an particular issue set (for example for an specific role) would be immense, or there would be a lot of hurdle deciding what is in which scope.

Yeah. I'd like to know that too. I'm running openjdk-12 but my book is for java (1.)8. Why is Java lagging behind so much or is there just so little change?

Anyhow I have openjdk-8 installed separately for college and just experiment with what works between versions.

This seems rather useful. Depending on the weight I might actually get this. Thanks for sharing.

Keep your Ballmer peak on point.

Have fun!
