    Is Tailscale ok? (Spoiler: no)

    Jump

  • They're not really comparable right? Wireguard being a direct vpn connection that requires you to have an open port that can reach the network hosting the vpn and tailscale being a layer on top of wireguard that handles connecting through NATs?

  • Americans can’t afford their cars any more and Wall Street is worried

  • Are the millennials killing car ownership!?

  • Every person should be given a free mandatory psychological evaluation once a year

    Jump

  • See there's that tricky phrasing again. Saying "not mentally unstable" instead of "mental health" gives away the game.

  • and we just let them crawl around society.

    This is enough to tell that you don't give a shit about the people themselves and understand the authoritarian bent to this proposal.

  • People don't post more unpopular opinions because they are punished

  • Not because they are a troll, or bigot but because they said something UNPOPULAR.

    This person's last account got banned for bigotry lol

  • Would you use a service that automatically identifies refactoring opportunities in your code?

    Jump

  • This has been a feature in IDEs since like 2000.

  • Framework goes full fash, supports Hyprland and Omarchy

    Jump

  • I feel like like I've seen the phrase "hyprland is the most toxic part of Wayland" more than once now and I'm not sure why it's being phrased that way. Hyprland is not part of wayland, right?

  • Which software design principles do you rely on most?

    Jump

  • Not clean code - uncle Bob is a hack.

    KISS YAGNI DRY in that order.

    Think about coupling and cohesion. Don't tie things together by making them share code that coincidentally is similar but isn't made for the same purpose.

    Don't abstract things until you have at least 2 (preferably 3) examples of what you're trying to abstract. If you try to guess at the requirements of the 2nd or 3rd thing you'll probably be wrong and have to undo or live with mistakes.

    When you so abstract and break things down, optimize for reading. This includes maximizing loading the code into your head. Things that make that hard are unnecessary indirections (like uncle Bob tells you to do) and shared state (like uncle Bob tells you to do).

    Pure functions (meaning they take inputs and remit outputs without any side effects such as setting shared state) are the platonic ideal. Anything written not as a pure function should have a reason (there are tons of valid reasons, but it's a good mental anchor)

    I should really read the Ousterhout book. It would be great if I could just point people at something, and it sounded decent from that discussion between him and Bob I saw the other day

    Edit: I don't agree with everything in here but it's pretty great https://grugbrain.dev/

  • no logic

  • I don't have a lot of conversations with the "immigrants are taking our jobs" people. Are those same people really talking about AI killing jobs being good? Because that doesn't seem right.

  • Linux Fair DRM Scheduler Graduates Out Of The "RFC" Phase

    Jump

  • With the RFC flag removed, inching ever closer to hopefully being mainlined into the Linux kernel for enhancing the Direct Rendering Manager drivers.

  • What's a readability

    Jump

  • That book did immeasurable damage to the software industry

  • photopea.com now locks out users blocking ads

    Jump

  • Wow this thread. Clearly both of you have the understanding of the mechanics and are both intentionally mischaracterizing what the other is saying. You both need to go touch some grass.

  • Microsoft is plugging more holes that let you use Windows 11 without an online account

    Jump

  • “While these mechanisms were often used to bypass Microsoft account setup, they also inadvertently skip critical setup screens, potentially causing users to exit OOBE with a device that is not fully configured for use.”

    Lol sure. If that was the real reason they'd simply let you create a local account. The audacious lying is just insulting.

  • Comment on /r/BlueSkySocial: "why can't we have one single social media site with a CEO who isn't weird and bad" (one reply mentions Mastodon).

    Jump

  • Because all the companies that get enough attention are funded by venture capital, and only sociopaths have the stomach to deal with venture capital.

  • Common inhalers carry heavy climate cost, study finds

    Jump

  • Did you even read it?

    But the vast majority of people could use dry powder or soft mist inhalers,” Feldman said, noting that countries such as Sweden and Japan use alternative inhalers without any loss in health outcomes.

    Feldman emphasized that the goal of the research is not to blame patients but to highlight the need for policy and pricing reform.

  • Doesn't photopea run locally?

  • Locked

    Why in western democratic countries Zionism is not banned like Nazism?

    Jump

  • t’s basically the idea that Jews should have their own nation in any form or shape.

    Honestly I don't see how ethnonationalism is a positive idea no matter what the ethnicity is

  • The FBI is weighing an arrest and perp walk for Comey — and suspended an agent for refusing to help, sources say

    Jump

  • Perp walks shouldn't be a thing in the first place. At it's best it's bullshit theater to drum up sentiment that someone is guilty pretrial
