mfw me running a tor node for my russian buddies to spin up torrenting site out of my mom basement in the alps.

"Whatever Microsoft is doing" hilarious!. Microsoft is such a total retarded company. Unfortunately Google turned evil too. Any for profit company can turn evil. I'm never going to place full trust in anything that is not 100% fully open source.

The shark got me so good. Just... "om."

Hey, you put an additional arrow at the wrong threaded thing, now it can do its job!

[–] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 13 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago) (1 children)

It looks like the AI screw jack is reverse threaded which wouldn't be obvious until you begin turning it... and that isn't actually a bad metaphor for today's AI.

Jesus fuck, can we give this poor abused xkcd a rest?

I love that the shark can take down whole modern digital infrastructure, but it can't stop C developers from writing dynamic arrays.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 38 points 8 hours ago

Some species are just perfectly adapted to their niche...

C developers were already writing dynamic arrays before computer data was running through underseas cables.

Glad I remain the cutest point of failure!

They're disconnecting like rabbits!

[–] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 19 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

This implies removing the unpaid opensource developers balances out The AI in short term and idk how to feel ahout that.

[–] Truscape@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 8 hours ago

Nah, the angle would be too aggressive - unless the boards have an extremely high friction coefficient, they would slide off to the right (along with anything on top of them).

npm is a bunch of cucks. Folded to the lawyer threats immediately but ignored the authors wish to remove his work off platform, and made sure it's no longer possible?

I have to remember never to use them to share my code. God bless I'm not a node dev.

[–] Eq0@literature.cafe 20 points 8 hours ago

Wow! I’m quite annoyed that it was fixed by restoring the previous package while the author had explicitly deleted it. That seems contrary to the laymen interpretation of code ownership

[–] paraphrand@lemmy.world 17 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

I love how the NPM CEO gave him the tool/command to remove all his work from the platform. What a dummy.

I also support the idea that he should be allowed to remove his work. It should have been republished according to the license. With a forked new name. IMO. But I know what a nightmare that would be.

[–] paraphrand@lemmy.world 12 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

It’s missing the latent bug.

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 2 points 5 hours ago

Skill issue, git guud (MAJOR /s ... mostly)

And it always flips aws/cloudflare with the unpaid open source devs. In reality the former keeps failing while the latter doesnt.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 7 points 10 hours ago

Aws/Clousdfare are both large, pentagonal blocks that span through all the width.

[–] KiwiTB@lemmy.world 4 points 7 hours ago

Oracle needs to be covered in glue.

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 8 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

What's up with the Rust hate? If anything they should be the flat bar under AWS.

[–] floquant@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 6 hours ago

Mostly the circlejerk about how memory safety magically fixes all security holes for me

[–] EnsignWashout@startrek.website 23 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

What's up with the Rust hate?

The Rust community keeps trying to rewrite key pieces of Linux that aren't broken.

They probably have the right idea, in the long run, but it's still fun to give them a hard time about it.

[–] dan@upvote.au 25 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago) (1 children)

I think the real issue isn't the rewrites, it's the fact that Ubuntu started using the new Rust coreutils even though they weren't ready for production yet. uutils hasn't even reached version 1.0 yet, and still fails some compatibility tests.

[–] exu@feditown.com 4 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

It's an intermediate release, so the perfect time for Ubuntu to evaluate uutils for their next LTS

[–] floquant@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 5 hours ago

I've heard this argument before, and it makes no sense. You evaluate new core components internally as part of developing your distro, not in releases because "they're not LTS"

[–] dan@upvote.au 4 points 5 hours ago

LTS is supposed to contain stable components though. They really should wait for a stable (1.0) release before committing to it.

[–] tomiant@piefed.social 12 points 11 hours ago

You know, it's like, I look at an old time clock, or a mechanical cog, or something. And I think, if I were to throw a bug in there, at the right time at the right moment, at the wrong gear...

Next week on my podcast: Jenga!

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 7 points 11 hours ago

We must go deeper!
