* The UI is nice to have * You get features like issues, project wiki, etc * You can still collaborate/handle PRs easily with other people I selfhost for the above and just to have a handy backup in case github is down.

Comparing a trivial <500 LoC program between languages doesn't tell you anything that's useful other than the terseness of the syntax. You might as well chain unix utilities together at that point. Maintaining a 5k+ LoC java&#x

All of 'em. All of them will be safe. AI generated content is devoid of meaning and randomly generating some pictures isn't indicative of anything to me. Human works of creativity are so much more than randomly generating things f

Here’s my personal site: https://andrewzah.com/ It’s statically compiled with Hugo. I switched from Zola due to lack of asciidoctor support. My focus is on minimalism, loading fast, and utilizing semantic html design for ac

Warp wants to john deere-ify our tools. Soon you won't be able to buy a hammer or table saw without some sort of platform marketing speak and a subscription service.

No. In daily life America and Americans are typically nuanced. Like literally any other country. It’s the internet that disposes of context and nuance.

Correct. I've no doubt that the new generation will also make some terrible calls thanks to lobbying being legal. I believe the environment will be much more prioritized, but we'll have to see. However, I'm tired of silents&#

It's my understanding that millenials and gen-z make up 31% [0], as of -2020-. Boomers and older still make up 44%. So sure, go ahead and blame millenials and gen-z for policies made in 2020 and onward. 0: https://catalist.u

As of 2021, out of 432 members in the house of congress, a scant 31 are millenials. In the senate, just 1. Millenials are -not- the ones responsible for disastrous policies (yet). They haven't been around long enough yet. It's mai

Navidrome [0] has been a solid replacement for me. It has all the features I want aside from Keycloak/generic oidc integration, and the author is very responsive. 0: https://github.com/navidrome/navidrome

Chiming to say that I also use a self-hosted instance of Monica. I hop between a lot of projects and hobbies so I tend to be a bit scatterbrained. Having a central store of my contacts, past events, their likes/dislikes is extremely us

It is better. All humans have to sit or stand regardless. I exercise at my discretion instead of having to do difficult labor in order to get paid. You're describing social/interpersonal problems which happen regardless of the typ

You and the other commenter have got to be joking. My point was that office-work is far away preferable to daily physical labor. I’ll take sitting over throwing out my back, blowing out my knees and having constant pain. Not to mention the

Comparing construction or plumbing work to sitting is absolutely ludicrous. I also use a standing desk anyways, but I am not sacrificing my health like my grandfather or father did who had/have back/knee and other health issues in

Occasionally that thought pops up. Then I remember I’m making insane amounts of money, from the comfort of my desk in my house. At 25 I’m making more than my parents ever did, with a fraction of the physical effort. If I really hated it, I

You can always specify the type. let foo: T = bar.parse()?; // or let foo = bar.parse::<u32>()?; baz(foo); In my experience I've never found this to be surprising behavior, or unclear.

They updated it after observing the usage of the word. That is how dictionaries work, because they are descriptive and not prescriptive. Many people do in fact use the term anti-vaxx(er) to refer to people who are against vaccines and also

"The reality is that they are government institutions, and this makes being inside them bad in the DMV kind of way." This doesn't really make any sense. I've never had an issue with being in a library because it's &

Deep, focused reading is a muscle that you need to work on. There isn’t a real answer other than practice, and focus on delayed gratification. We skim websites/articles because there is so much information out there, and not all of it

I think Dan is on point here with asking questions for true understanding and not being afraid to do that. Our society, unfortunately, for the most part rewards those who are confident and act like they know everything instead of those who

Check out Navidrome [0]. It's the closest one that I've found. It supports the Subsonic API so there are plenty of mobile apps and probably some desktop ones that work with it. I use play:Sub on iOS. 0: https://github.c

So your solution to other people cheating is .... contributing to the cheating problem yourself? Wow. You know it's possible to choose to -not- play a game, right? There are so many games available that don't have ridiculous cheat
