I’ve always known it as “Idiots Out Wandering Around”

What’s a scroll saw? I know I can look it up, but it’s more fun to engage in conversation with people that nerd over specific things.

Why would I leave one walled garden for another walled garden?

You learn so much more doing it yourself instead of having AI write code for you. When I first learned how to admin an Apache server I had 0 understanding how it worked, but with some effort I’m now confident enough to do a simple setup on my own. I did follow along with tutorials and examples configs, but I made sure I knew what each part did at least on a high level. The reason I’m confident in this is that I know how to read the docs and how to troubleshoot issues when they happen.

When you let AI do all the work you don’t learn the inner workings of a system and are only hurting yourself. If you want to use AI use it for writing some boiler plate you’ve already written hundreds of times or taking simple functions and converting them to another language. I use AI for basic and repetitive tasks, which is something it’s great at. I don’t use it for making large design decisions since that will (not “if”, but “will”) bite me in the ass later on when something breaks. Examples of good uses of AI (in my opinion): generating a list of US states in JavaScript, take a function that converts a strijg to a date object and try to translate it to another language, use it as a tool to bounce some high level ideas off of when you’re at a development block.

The hard drive was just trying to turn itself into a much trendier vinyl record.

And you have summed up why I block those communities. There are surely cases of people abusing power, but a majority of it is just people wanting to stir up shit.

Finally the shoe on head meme is gonna come in clutch.

A lot of farmers are learning how they work cause the companies that sell them the equipment keep fucking them over. I would argue that farmers nowadays needs to know how that works along with basic programming to get past the anti-consumer bullshit companies put in to make it nigh impossible to fix things yourself.

I’ve got some shipping to my house now.

Is it handy to have some even if you’re not a user and aren’t regularly around users? What else does the course cover? I took a brief look on the website and couldn’t find an FAQ or something like that.

I believe it’s supposed to be a fediverse version of Instagram. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong

Hell yes we need to open source stuff like this. Looking at the video it looks like it replaces the muscle used to move the top two parts of the digit (flange?) with a simple spring which is such a simple and elegant design. I wonder if there’s issues with the spring “biting” skin/hair.

I know it’s for like donations and grants, but I choose to imagine they are paid $100k+ just cause they are really good a gift wrapping and ideas.

Glad to see there are some level heads leading this project. Also great answer to how to pronounce it, the GIF creator should’ve gone for that instead of the pun.

Security through obscurity isn’t security.

This 100% it’s so fun to laugh at how ridiculous the story and gameplay is with a friend. Plus each class truly feels unique in how you play them, so you have 4 play styles to choose from.

It’s apparently only €50/month and the 2024 costs are covered.

Thank you for posting the solution you found. If you don’t mind, what OS are you using?

Really wish there was a text changelog attached to this post.
