A different provider would probably work. Unsure about the other ones here. I believe root is required to disable Sim Toolkit pop-ups or notifications.

Funny, I’ve been having a lot of problems with Mullvad DNS so I just switched to Quad9.


Ignoring my previous beef with PVS-Studio and the crappy AI-generated image…
I think the post is not entirely on the wrong track — dependencies can get pretty ridiculous, but some of the points he (or the AI?) makes are bizarre. I mean, recommending WinAPI over something “non-portable”? I guess there’s always Wine, but I am genuinely curious about what crappy libraries he’s using that are less portable than WinAPI. Also, you could argue most of the points he makes apply to code whether it’s a library or not (for example, compiler compatibility and vulnerability patching). The best point he makes is the one about potential license changes, but even then, the example he gives is softfloat, which went from a hand-written permissive license to BSD, which if anything, made it more permissive.
My best guess is either it’s a crappy AI-written article or his points only apply to whatever niche he specializes in.


So they used a distributed cache for a library that didn’t need to be distributed, switched, and then profiled it for fun? It sounds like they might not even need SQLite, it could be accomplished in a few data structures.


I got a notification two days ago that my extension was taken down. I actually did upgrade it to manifest v3, but I’m not too motivated to republish it. It’s still on the Firefox addon repo, so eh.


So, to start off, I’m someone who does not typically perform well during interviews because of anxiety (but through some miracle has had no issues with employment), so take this response with whatever bias that brings.
I believe this is bad too. You’re still essentially asking a gotcha question, expecting one phrase in your answer and failing the candidate if you don’t hear that phrase. And, in fact, I disagree with the premise. I think the question is defined quite well in the context of programming, given that someone answers with the possibility that there are many ways to hash something and many uses of hashing.

As someone who exclusively shops second-hand the mere existence of this article feels like an omen for prices.


My cynical opinion is that middle management are very good salesmen at convincing their bosses of their worth, and engineers are not. Lies are worth more than reality to upper management.


Sure, but DotRush can work well with other editors with LSP support, like NeoVim, Zed, and Sublime as noted here. I’m pretty sure it can work with other editors, too, like emacs, but haven’t tried (yet?). It also explicitly supports Godot.


Check out DotRush. It’s made for VSCode/Codium but can be used with pretty much anything else with its LSP. https://github.com/JaneySprings/DotRush


Wow, this would be quite cool. When DS emulators were new, I wanted this to be a thing so bad.
Unrelated (and not what I’m doing this weekend), but I’ve always been interested in reversed-engineering the DS / DSi firmware drivers that connects to WiFi to attempt to backport the 802.11b driver to WEP-only DS games.


Maybe I am bad at finding communities to subscribe to. For the most part, I’m mostly subscribed to programming-related subreddits (although I was missing. cs_caeer_questions and no_stupid_questions – thanks!)
I don’t personally think Lemmy’s “tankie community” reputation is that harmful:
I don’t even think Lemmy needs to be overly attractive to outsiders, but it kind of sucks when I search for an equivalent to an active subreddit and find a wasteland (like the fossdroid community. I’ve also just joined that wasteland). I’d settle for a few quality posts per week for each niche. I think what a lot of communities need are simply signs of life for others to see.


I’d love to answer questions on here. I don’t see many.


Yes, but this is not typical and the experience is degraded compared to traditional screen readers. There are some that have limited OCR capabilities, but they’re typically used for images without alt text or PDFs that are images.
This is a horrible idea. Accessibility is fairly complicated. Websites are difficult enough to navigate without this.
Cool stuff. I don’t know about ISO but I love these kinds of puzzles. Maybe I’ll give it a shot, if it’s not too hard. Also love that it’s hosted on a Wii.


This has got to be the worst argument I’ve ever seen.
I think by this time, the Wii had already been out for a bit, which for the record, could play GameCube games.
