Xetera

Made a hantavirus tracker using Pandemic 2's UI hantavirus.xetera.dev

@athasdev @tudorandre1 Is that even an option with the new twitter anymore? You may need to use curl_chrome146 -X POST instead

@tudorandre1 CLI is easier tho. You can just curl -X POST to the API

@VoidNothin253 @ShinonSoda @suchnerve I liked it better when machine learning was used for showing you better search results, not for making things up

@ShinonSoda @suchnerve google was using AI for decades my guy, its not just a buzzword

@suchnerve I think it's a good tool but the $5/month plan may well not exist. I got anxiety looking things up in the free trial and blasted through 100 searches in 3 days. 300 would definitely not last me a month and anything under unlimited would just make me nervous to use the tool.

@temidaradev Probably just those ANOM phones they got from that guy a few years ago with a backdoor that points to a Turkish server instead

If they use Graphene OS.... I cant imagine how good could it be...

@michaelkeenan_0 Oh... interesting, status.netlify.com is supposed to redirect to that page, but I guess that endpoint lives in their own infrastructure. Would be nice if there was a CNAME for that specific subdomain or something

@_Xetera Netlify's status page is netlifystatus.com

Netlify is down. I feel like it might not have been a great idea to host the status page on netlify itself

@garnwall @Dexerto They will be once accenture scoops up all the user data

@Dexerto How are these companies even profitable?

Downdetector and Speedtest have been sold for $1.2 billion to Accenture

This is the kind of chaotic energy I'm here for! 4000 car batteries could power a small village, or create the world's most dangerous science fair project. Just imagine the possibilities: DIY electric car conversion, off-grid power for a hacker space, or the world's loudest portable speaker system. The real question is: does the kid have a plan, or are we just vibing with maximum voltage? ⚡🔋

I want to find a way to get this kid 4000 car batteries

@kershnerd @josefbender_ @JavaScript Lodash is already in your bundle like 7 different times as a transitive dependency. If you're lax with the version constraint there's not much cost to using it, if any

@josefbender_ @JavaScript Do you really need lodash? It's quite large and most of the features I have used it for are now part of JavaScript.

Whenever I start a new @JavaScript project, I install these libraries. -> Non-negotiable. Save this for later ;)

@ppro2020_ @kscepersky @Sheep_Esports It also requires System Integrity Protection to be enabled which is a deal breaker for me because I need it turned off for my window manager (yabai)

@kscepersky @Sheep_Esports they have another implementation for macos and cheat detection is embedded into the game client called mVG and it's the same thing used for valorant console and wild rift iirc

💻 As of Patch 16.2, League runs natively on Mac computers with Apple Silicon 🍎 M-chip Mac users are seeing a boost of 300-400 FPS due to the change Via Michelle Wang on LinkedIn

@grok @CRYPTO_JUN13 @0C0RV0 You're absolutely right

@_Xetera @CRYPTO_JUN13 @0C0RV0 Thanks! I double-checked—it's indeed the 2018 Moscow taxi incident where the driver fell asleep, hit 8 pedestrians, and got pulled out by the crowd. Facts only, no hallucinations.

😮😮😮

@grok @CRYPTO_JUN13 @0C0RV0 Least hallucinated grok response of all time

@CRYPTO_JUN13 @0C0RV0 The video shows a 2018 incident in Moscow where a taxi driver accidentally hit pedestrians, injuring several. He tried to flee, but the crowd chased, pulled him from the car, and assaulted him. It's an old clip often shared without full context.

@DeedleFake @EOEboh This guy lets it crash

Honestly, every dev should always take advantage of "early returns". It's a simple pattern with some important benefits: - it prevent the function from doing unnecessary work (early exit) - you can return results early as soon as the conditions are met - the function becomes more readable - when you handle errors and null cases at the start of the function, it reduces any cognitive load

@housecor I wonder how many bugs have been caused by code like if (user?.token === accidentallyUndefinedVar) { disaster() } It should at the very least be banned in equality expressions

I'm reviewing a codebase with over 750 uses of optional chaining. Example: user?.email I continue to believe adding this feature to JS was a mistake. It encourages lazy, sloppy, brittle, ambiguous code.

@azrizhaziq @dschewchenko @robpalmer2 @acutmore @TechAtBloomberg @TC39 This might not work since passing in an array today is technically something like Promise.all({ 0: promise, 1: promise, length: 2 }) They also point out that Promise.all(p1, p2, p3) currently throws an error about p1 not being iterable. An overload would break that

@dschewchenko @robpalmer2 @acutmore @TechAtBloomberg @TC39 why not Promise.all({ key: promise }). Promise all can jusr Accept another kind of parameter

ECMAScript excitement 😉 Congrats to my coworker @acutmore @TechAtBloomberg on advancing Await Dictionary to Stage 2.7 at @TC39 today 🎉 Promise.all returns positional results as an array. Promise.allKeyed allows named results inside an object 👍

@HotAisle @SumitM_X One of the few sane responses here

I love people saying pagination. I'd stop the interview right there. As written, this is an 8 point story. The correct answer is to ask for more detailed requirements. If you can't get the PM to give them to you (as that's their job), then you start asking more detailed questions, such as finding out what data needs to get returned and what will be done with it.

Backend Interview question that is being asked a lot these days : You are implementing an API that returns users to the client, but the database has 1 M(1000000) users How will you return data to the client efficiently?

@trianglerosmi @SpeedBHHD @aldoblack2 @ShishirShelke1 I can't believe bro is asking what happened to youtube between 2005 and 2025 that would make it more expensive. Ragebait as clear as day

@SpeedBHHD @aldoblack2 @ShishirShelke1 YouTube is much more popular these days.. do you realize it means operating costs is increased by 1000%+? If YouTube kept being unprofitable, and didn’t create ads and premium.. it would not exist now.

YouTube Premium is one of those services that’s actually worth the money, but somehow people still don’t want to pay for it

I'm getting tired of seeing this dog in my followers list every 3-4 months. Stop wasting your precious API quota on me lil bro github.com/XiaomingX

@tdellytech @Kaperskyguru @catalinmpit unless the function call is wrapped in try/catch. Then you do need the await there

@Kaperskyguru @catalinmpit You dont need await when returning a promise the function becomes a promise

Which one do you prefer? I prefer the more verbose code, because it's clearer and easier to read & understand.
