  • Tips on dissecting vibe code

    Jump

  • I guess despite how intimidating it seems, un-fucking vibe code can be approached just like every other complex programming problem: by breaking it down into smaller problems and solving them incrementally.

  • I tried AI, was impressed by it, and it's embarrassing; Need advice

  • It sounds to me like you have two viable options:

    1. Accept that your role at the company is now "prompt 'engineer'" and do your best to optimise your workflow for quick turnaround, since the business is prioritising speed. If you want to do programming, start a personal project.

      Optionally, you can think about how to frame the issues with code quality in terms of financial risk to leadership--but be prepared for them to continue not giving a shit (and maybe start viewing you as "not a team player").
    2. Find a new job.

  • This may help explain why some devs I talk to think LLM code assistants are amazing, while others find them only situationally useful at best.

  • My Colgate toothbrush had an "ingrown" bristle defect, so I got a different toothbrush.

  • Glad you caught it early. Imagine brushing your teeth and a toothbrush cyst bursts in your mouth

  • Bought a new vacuum cleaner.

  • I have both a Miele canister similar to your pic and a cordless Shark Rocket. The Rocket:

    • is easier to move around the house
    • has a reusable dust collector that is easy to empty
    • has reusable filters that just need to be cleaned once a month or so
    • doesn't get jammed by hair
    • was somewhere around 1/3 to 1/2 the price of the Miele

    Whereas the bulkier and more expensive Miele unit has disposable bags and filters, and the brush head (that I had to buy separately for close to the price of the whole ass Shark vacuum) is constantly jammed and needs to be completely disassembled to clear it.

  • I have no C# experience and both styles look fine to me. /shrug

  • Five years ago, I added a bag of RJ45 connectors to an order to meet the free shipping threshold. This week, i bought a crimper with the intent to terminate some new ethernet.

    Jump

  • The place I am storing the crimper is the place where I thought I had stored the connectors. 💔

  • Luckily, the cables are already run throughout the house. They are cat5e but currently terminated with RJ11, which isn't terribly useful to me these days.

  • I'll be installing ports at one end. The connectors are going in the (unfinished) basement where I intend to move the modem/router/server PC. :)

  • WTAF. I was sceptical, but I've been using this all week and haven't once had the issue in the OP. Whereas previously I had to log in 2-3 times back to back every morning.

    Any idea why this works?

  • Adblockers stop publishers serving ads to (or even seeing) 1bn web users - Press Gazette

    Jump

  • Maybe we could turn it around: adblockers are tools that block ads and other kinds of dark traffic such as trackers and malicious scripts.

  • Why do people switch from chrome to Brave browser and not to Firefox?

    Jump

  • No webRTC apps work for me at all in Firefox. Teams, Zoom, Google Meet, whatever. I can connect but there is no video or audio in either direction.

  • RFK's proposal to let bird flu spread through poultry

    Jump

  • Like I said, it's just a side effect. They make money off the grift.

    Prior to his current position as Secretary of Undermining Health, RFK Jr. was the head of the Children's Health Defense, whose mission is to defend children's health from various things that improve it, such as vaccines and fluoridated drinking water.

    From the linked Wikipedia page:

    From $13,000 in annual revenue in 2014, World Mercury Project brought in $470,000 in revenue in 2015, when Kennedy joined the organization. Its revenues increased to $1.1 million in 2018. With the group becoming a major disinformation hub during the COVID-19 pandemic, its revenue reached $6.8 million in 2020, $15 million in 2021, counting among its new donors LimeWire's founder Mark Gorton,[6][64] and $23.5 million in 2022.[31]

    Basically, it's just another variation of rallying people against a problem that doesn't exist. Once you have their support, you can start asking them for money. And since your cause is a farce, you don't have to worry about getting results - just keep banging that drum and let the donations roll in. An unfortunate side effect is that you might eventually start succeeding at eliminating public health measures, but who cares as long as you're getting paid?
