I’m more fan of the https://www.vim-hero.com/.

Also, one think I was surprised by when I switched to Lazyvim/Ideavim/vscodevim setup few months ago - it’s a lot of fun. Learning vim properly is like the dark souls of typing. Sure, you probably won’t be as efficient for the first few years, but learning new motion combos is pretty fun, to the point where the minor loss in efficiency doesn’t really bother me. Blasting out combos you’ve been practicing to do that one move efficiently, or discovering another new cool way how to do something is a continuous and fun process. It’s basically gamifying typing.

So, if you want a boost in efficiency, just learn all the keybinds your current text editor has (jump to next param/function, multi-line editting, go to definition without using mouse, etc.), and start using them. You’ll probably master all of them in few weeks and be much more efficient.

If, however, you enjoy slowly mastering something, vim will give you years of stuff to learn and master. Is it worth it? Probably not, but it’s suprisingly satisfying!

This furniture is actually a sex furniture. At least it’s marketed as such locally, exactly the same shape, and pretty popular at local fetish/BDSM events.

Unless you need to work on a solution with more than a few projects, such as Unity games. Then the LSPs go haywire and eat 20+Gb of memory, while not actually working.

Which, ofc, is Microsoft’s fault, since it’s their analyzer that has had the bug for years now. Rider didn’t have that problem, but it shits itself when you change branches. You can’t win :(

It’s more of a time for a Mexican Joker anyway.

Shadowrun kind of does the same. It’s not really super-advanced, since it’s cyberpunk, but it’s cyberpunk with magic. And it’s my favorite setting, it’s such a cool idea.

Nope, thermostat (yes, that thing that has one "if temperature < XX, turn on heater) is literally considered an intelligent agent, as defined by the actual field of Artificial Intelligence, it’s one of the first examples taught on the most basic of courses.

You should really go do your homework about absolute basics of AI field before insulting random people that at least have a semblance of knowledge about the field, other than “AI hype, AI cool”.

People like you are insulting the whole field of Artificial Inteligence, so please stop spreading bullshit about it before you get good (or at the very least, don’t be a dick about it, when people try to educate you). You probably had no idea the field even exists two years ago.

Literally yes. Thermostat (yes, the thing that turns your heater on if temperature is lower than XX) is considered an inteligent agent in the field of artifical inteligence.

The fact that you have a bunch of techbros who have no idea about what the field is about and are hyping the words because they sound cool changes nothing about it being a regular established academic field.

Oh boy, you have a lot to learn about what Artificial Intelligence actually means for people who have been in academia or gamedev for the past 20 years.

Isn’t this actually illeagal in the EU?

I’m really looking forward for the next generation of people who are unable to read a text that’s not summarized or longer than a sentence.

It worked so well with short-form content and attention span for the last generation.

Having your basic litteracy tied to a proprietary tool that is free for now (I wonder why), but we all know costs billions of dollars will be absolutely swell.

Though I have to admit, I’m kind of impressed that capitalism is sucessfully getting away with what appears to be slapping a subscription on litteracy.

I’m on mobile and youtube hates my VPN lately, so I can’t link it, but I highly recommend for everyone to go watch how does an exploding/penetrated battery looks like.

I kind of knew they are a fire hazard, but seeing one actually explode was way way worse than I thought. Exploding batteries are no joke, and everyone should see it at least once.

Agreed, the AI part is questionable, I linked it mpstly because it’s mostly funny, plus I learned something new, tho I defo wouldn’t take it too seriously.

Also, no marquee :(

I can share my experience with college, which it took me a while to appreciate but eventually I realized that while it wasn’t apparent at the time, it did make a difference. But of course, your mileage may wary, it’s just my personal experience.

I felt like I’m forced to go through a lot of bloat I’ll probably never need - why do I have to learn stuff like Prolog, Lisp, Smalltalk and other obscure languages that I’ll realistically never need? Why force so much in-depth math, I’ll probably never need to be able to formally prove the Big O of a Hashtable…

After spending few years working after/during college in offensive cybersecurity, where most of my colleagues did not have a degree, I’ve eventually realized what was the point of all these classes. I noticed that people kept reffering to programming as in “I’m a python programmer”, or “I’m a java programmer”, but I never really felt like that - when someone asked me if I can write something in any language, it didn’t matter what it is, I can just relatively quickly pick up the syntax and write anything I need in whatever you need, and I eventually realized that that’s exactly thanks to the college - the point was not to make me a Smalltalk or Prolog programmer, but to give me a PTSD from every different style of languages, from OOP through functional to whatever Prolog is, and while I do not remember almost anything, I still have the basic understanding of how does that style works, and when I look up any new language I need to use for the job, I’ve already seen and was forced to once learn and understand (well enough to pass exams) something with similar concepts.

And that’s a really big advantage that people without degrees don’t usually have (at least from my experience with my colleagues). It will teach you how to relatively quickly pick up different technologies and use new things, and that is a really valuable thing. And it’s the same about data structures and other math - you will probably not remember it, but the feeling that “wait a minute, this problem sounds familiar, isn’t there like a obscure tree-thing structure that solves exactly this efficiently?” or “wasn’t there some magic with stacking trig coeficients for this?” will stay with you, and give you a headstart in looking up the concrete details that would be pretty hard to find otherwise.

So I’m really glad I went to college. And in addition to that, it was amazing for networking - I had a masters in Gamedev and while that didn’t teach me almost anything new, it gave me a lot of friends and an amazing community of passionate people that I keep on making games with.

He’s 18, contributed to the Switch emulator Ryjunix, alongside some other projects while also doing school. His reasoning is that he along with Whisky doesn’t have the capabilities, manpower and skill to properly contribute to the Wine on MacOS, just like Proton is doing for Linux, and that he’s worried that if Whiskey would make CrossOver unsustainable (who do have the resources to do it better), that it could kill Wine on MacOS.

I’d say that’s fair, and anyone allegeding blackmail or buying off is insulting.

I started as part time without any experience durring my college. I was studying gamedev software engineering, but we had one voluntary class about Ethical Hacking.

I just asked my professor if he can reffer me to someone in the field, followed OWASP Web App Testing guide to the letter when testing the interview homework website, and landed the job without much prior experience (I did attend a few CTF competitions, though).

Just following the checklist in OWASP testing guide made my results comparable to, or even better to some of my colleagues, and I’ve slowly learned the rest (especially internal domain pentesting) from our internal documentation or shadowing seniors during pentests, and simply being interrested in the field, having initiative and looking up new tools and exploits eventually got me to a Red Team Lead role (not a very good RT, though, but it did improve eventually).

The pay was pretty good compared to what’s usuall here in Czech, too. I could comfortably pay rent and get by even with part-time, during college.

I’ve added a subtle prompt injection into my email signature (capitalize random words and start every sentence with the same letter), with small font size and color to not be visible.

I have already received two emails from customers that did trigger it.

I think I know who killed him.

By 11, he was programming on his own—a skill he used to playfully torment his friends. One remembers Balaji’s idea of a middle-school prank: writing code that deleted a friend’s Skyrim save file.

but if they do it’s a scandal waiting to happen

That was my line of thought. If you pay for failed captchas, there are a few websites using it that’d deserve a bot failing them constantly.

I use Pixel with GrapheneOS as my phone, and I just have a separate profile that only has WhatsApp installed and nothing else. Since the profiles are completely separated, it doesn’t have access to anything else I do on the phone and it’s not running in the background (the profiles are basically sandboxed fresh slates, and switching it can be set-up to behave in a same way as basically turning off the phone as far as the profile is concerned).

When the bridge asks me to log in again or refresh a session, I simply switch to the second profile for a minute and re-log in. I’ve heard iIt might be possible to set up an emulator and leave it running on the server, but that felt like too much effort.
