  • Haven’t started a company myself, but I’ve worked with a few people who have.

    The common theme is that you need to involve potential clients early. Understand their wants and needs. What you learn from the first interactions will likely surprise you, and greatly reshape your product vision.

    Don’t build a product in isolation for two years. That’s a sure way to make something no one wants to pay for.

  • Part of designing large systems is to make research easier. Any question regarding the code base should be easy to find the answer to. No one can keep track of all 100,000 constantly changing lines of code, so make it easy to use the code as reference.

    The problem is when the system is built by Rube Goldberg fanatics.

  • In short, it’s easier to manage your data if there’s one single source of truth for it.

  • .unwrap()

  • The legacy system. It doesn’t work, it’s slow, it’s incomprehensible, but you can’t do anything about it without making it worse.

  • Did you wake up in Tokyo outside a Family Mart?

  • As I said: insanity

  • Organizing books by color with no regard for book series is insanity.

  • Xbox 360 turned 20 this year

  • Every time I’ve tried ”fractional scaling” on X11 it’s just a blurry mess. Like as if it renders at a lower resolution and then scales it up by 125%. I don’t want all my text and icons to be tiny without having to configure every single application I’m using (with mixed results).

    With Wayland it’s sharp even with 125% scaling.

  • Adulthood: Christmas this year again? In this economy???

  • I know a fair bit of gang signs. From left to right you have P, L, A, S, M and A.

  • For most ”laymen” Wayland works just fine. I prefer Wayland because it has proper support for fractional scaling, which is a must for monitors with higher resolution than 1080p.

  • There are a few flags you should never display.

    The Nazi Germany flag. The ISIS flag. The Japanese rising sun flag.

    The confederate flag is one of these flags.

  • If you haven’t logged in to your WhatsApp through any third party applications you should be fine.

  • it's the kind of dependency developers install without a second thought

    I got a feeling this is an attack vector that will continue to grow, as now there’s vibe coding frameworks installing random dependencies without a thought at all.

  • That’s fair. I live under the assumption that dark mode users don’t know how to change the brightness level.

  • I prefer light mode.

    Just be in a properly lit room. Open your window curtains. Don’t blast your display on max brightness. It’s actually easier on the eyes.

  • Buy European @feddit.uk

    Brits can get around Discord's age verification thanks to Death Stranding's photo mode, bypassing the measure introduced with the UK's Online Safety Act. We tried it and it works—thanks, Kojima
