  • Software Engineers Say They're Losing the Ability to Code Now That AI Does It for Them

  • headscale, an open-source reimplementation of the tailscale control server, exists. I haven't tried it myself yet, but it claims to be an option for a fully selfhosted tailscale-compatible network.

  • Would you keep seeing a doctor that required to you agree to the use of AI in your treatment to continue being a patient?

  • AI is an overloaded marketing term. Definitely ask which kind of AI, how it is used, how and which of your data is going to be used.

  • Just a wild guess, but maybe it got rate limited by GitHub?

  • Deprecation of user to organization account transformation

    Jump

  • Of course it is, just have a bot periodically load one of your repos and check if it is still named the same

  • What "ruins it" for you?

    Jump

  • I can understand a subscription if it is directly related with the running cost of the service. But if it has no running cost for the manufacturer (e.g. you buy printer ink) it should not need a subscription to function.

    not to be confused with micro trans actions, like nail painting. those are great

  • How do you listen to music?

    Jump

  • revanced youtube music. i started collecting stuff in a youtube playlist a long time ago, and at this point i't be quite a hassle to switch, so i always put it off. also, you can't really beat the simplicity of discovering a song through the algorithm and instantly having available on all devices without having to faff around with downloading it to a selfhosted insert service

  • Can I get a computer science degree, certs,or education without ever touching Windows?

    Jump

  • I managed to get through most of my computer engineering bachelor's using Linux. There were some specialized windows-only programs related to electronics design.

  • A classic beginners C program! Some points of inspiration:

    • for better readability, try splitting the operations into functions.
    • you could look into using a switch statement instead of chained if-else
    • see what happens if you enter something that isn't a number, and how you could fix it.

  • Whats the worst game mechanic?

    Jump

  • Sometimes I would appreciate a "Loot all except junk" button, and possibly having the option of manually marking certain items as junk

  • Fight Chat Control: The EU (still) wants to scan your private messages and photos

    Jump

  • Good luck detecting that with any kind of client-side anti-cheat.

    The game will now only play on a "secure" display, and the anti-cheat has privileges to monitor the entire chain from the GPU to the display. Non-conforming monitors or devices in the middle break the chain of trust and the game refuses to play.

    And then cheaters will shift to a camera pointed at the screen...

    Client-side anti cheat is an endless cat-and-mouse game.
