  • Why are programmers so rude to beginners?

    Jump

  • Yeah, it's common, especially in programming. It's true that searching on Google usually solves the problem, but the biggest issue is that it's hard to know the exact word you need to use. They know the word so it's trivial for them, but that's not the case with others, and they're proud that they're out of touch with people.

  • Coupang e-commerece announces $1.18 billion compensation to South Korean users for data leak

    Jump

  • Not money, but fucking vouchers.

  • How many of you young adults here still live with parents/relatives?

    Jump

  • Unless you count the dorm, yeah I do. It's pretty normal to live with your parents.

  • There’s so much stolen data in the world, South Korea will require face scans to buy a SIM

    Jump

  • My guess is that they hope this somehow stops the scam calls.

  • What are some of your most useful or favorite terminal commands?

    Jump

  • () creates a subshell, and & runs the command in background. The $@ means everything after the first argument, so the <command> is executed like a normal command. I am not sure why this works, but it has worked more consistently than nohup, disown, and it's a lot shorter than most other solutions.

  • What are some of your most useful or favorite terminal commands?

    Jump

  • IIRC disown is a shell built-in command, so its use is a bit limited. Not sure if & is also a built-in, but I found disown to not work in some situations. Besides, it's shorter.

  • What are some of your most useful or favorite terminal commands?

    Jump

  • I have a script named d in my PATH and it contains this:

     
        
("$@" > /dev/null 2>&1 &)

    It allows me to run any program in a fully detached state in a way that works even if the terminal that started the program closes, and it's as simple as d <command>.

  • How do you manage your home server configuration?

    Jump

  • reproducible

    You tried writing bash scripts that set things up for you, haven't you? It's NixOS for you.

  • What's the craziest thing you've seen on public transportation?

    Jump

  • This particular blue wizard. Not my image, but he's a well known person that you can find image of him online.

  • How much do you care about music?

    Jump

  • A bit of both. There are plenty of players, and they are all great and does what I want. But I couldn't find a software that fills all of my exact niche I was looking for:

    • Synced lyric support
    • Keyboard-based navigation
    • Smart playlist support

    It also allows me to put in features I want. It's like customisation, but taken a bit too far.

    I still need to document how to use it because the config system is barely usable right now. But it's open source, and it's available here.

  • How much do you care about music?

    Jump

  • Things I do:

    • Maintain a large database of music, though primarily for archive purpose
    • Write software for listening music, though it is far from done
    • Maintain some overengineered smart playlist
    • Occasionally search and purchase new albums

    It's primarily Vocaloid, so that's probably why I can't listen to it and focus on something else at the same time. Also probably why I can't tell the difference between bad and good headphones. Some are meme songs too.

  • What's the story behind your username and avatar?

    Jump

  • In terms of avatar, it was in my downloads folder

  • Keeping .yaml files up to date...

    Jump

  • Other than keeping an eye on their changelog or waiting until it breaks, I don't think you can do anything about that. I do have automatic update, but the config rarely changes from my experience.

  • How accepting is Lemmy to non-American, non-European and non-Canadian culture and content?

    Jump

  • There's not much content to even say if there's resistance against them if any. I suppose people blocking contents in foreign language they can't read counts as one though.

  • Have clankers visited my blog one hundred twenty-one sexagintillion eight hundred ten novemquinquagintillion times so far in November??

    Jump

  • I also recommend it.

    Jump

  • I replaced like a third of the ingredients I need with something I had in the corner of the fridge because I couldn't be bothered to go to the shop. 😭 Oh well, that's vibe cooking.

  • Post your vibe cooking results here

  • People who are learning a foreign language: what are you learning & how is it going?

    Jump

  • Yeah, that's what plan to do once I can read without too much active thinking. I got ons of manga I want to read in original!

  • People who are learning a foreign language: what are you learning & how is it going?

    Jump

  • Japanese! I originally thought I might make quick progress, but there were surprising number of characters I've never seen before. So I just decided to learn everything from complete scratch so that I don't ever have to backtrack. Everything is written in hiragana at the current stage, and that's throwing me off a lot too. But I have to learn how they're read anyway so, oh well.
