Any pronouns. 33.

Professional developer and amateur gardener located near Atlanta, GA in the USA.

I'm using a new phone keyboard, please forgive typos.

  • "Coding but for non-programmers" has been a thing for a while in the industry. Business rules engines were a big one. The promise is always the same: Non-technical folks/business folks will be able to use this. They never are. Devs still have to do the hard hard, now in a weird thing that isn't quite coding.

  • Google Translate is vulnerable to prompt injection

    Jump

  • In my testing, by copying the claimed 'prompt' from the article into Google Translate, it simply translated the command. You can try it yourself.

    So, the source of everything that kicked off the entire article, is 'Some guy on Tumblr' vouching for an experiment, which we can all easily try and fail to replicate.

  • I wouldn't have necessarily thought it obvious Google Translate uses an LLM so this is still interesting.

  • I think the current flow for Reddit account creation is they give you the auto generated username and you have to change it when you're done creating the account. You don't get to set it during creation. So because it's an extra step I think some people don't. (Though I may be misremembering. It's been years since I used it.)

  • Ad blocking is alive and well, despite Chrome's attempts to make it harder

    Jump

  • I genuinely believe most forms of advertising on the web are ableist because they try to make them as distracting as possible. Removing those ads is accessibility.

    I don't consider ads at the start and end of videos to be ableist, but they're still annoying. Mid video ads, pause screen ads, and banner ads are all ableist.

  • Too late! That and requiring TPM and SecureBoot made me switch. I love it.

  • Yeah a lot of people find stress to be a blocker for arousal. I imagine gender dysphoria very stressful. My first thought when reading that was how do they account for that?

  • Windows 10's extended support ends in eight months, but users are still rejecting Windows 11, at least in Germany

    Jump

  • Damn, that sucks. When does my Arch support end?

    Okay if you wanna get technical, some folks define support as meaning some sort of official paid support process, in which case there is none at all. But I feel like a funnier joke would be that Arch "support" lasts until there's any sort of update to any package you have.

  • Maybe about plugging in devices to charge when you're done with them? Schools use laptops a lot now, but don't think they're communal ones on carts anymore.
