@lauriewired Just learned that C++ now supports reflection...

the beautiful thing about C++ reflection is no matter what you did wrong, clang will swear it's a constexpr problem

@breki74 I have done that too, and later even ASM from the 8085 ISA, at the school, exercises and exams were done on paper. :)

Me coding 41 years ago

@ProgramMax @lauriewired I have done exactly this, on an old laptop that I use exclusively for gaming. You can disable Intel's microcode patch on Ubuntu, easily.

I feel like this might be a question for @lauriewired Suppose I am running my own local server. I might not want microcode updates that slow down my CPU. The mitigation is a non-issue here. And suppose one CPU is just perfect for my specific case. Market for non-updated CPUs??

@LundukeJournal I do remember, but with a monochrome green CRT monitor :)

Remember when this is what programming looked like? Those were good times.

@mitchellh @brunoluiz This is funny, because that was the way my legacy java software dodged the log4shell hell. It was using an ancient log4j version, that didn't use jndi at all, so it was completely immune :)

@brunoluiz No it doesn't, you fix the CVE out of band. Most times though, you're not affected because you're on a version so old or you're not even using that code path and you cut it out.

Fork your dependencies, trim them to only your use case, never update unless it breaks for your users. I’ve been vocal about this for 10+ years. I’ve always said that updating is way riskier than latent bugs (which can be tracked and CVEs monitored). If you are updating a dependency, it’s on you to analyze every single commit in the full transitive set of dependencies. If you dont see anything compelling, dont update! I remember at HashiCorp once in awhile an engineer would try to update a dep or replace a DIY lib with an external one and id always ask “show me the commit we need.” Dont update for the sake of it. Feeling pretty swell about this mentality with all the supply chain attacks happening.

@PlanetaSinclair Pelo menos para electrónica digital...

@PlanetaSinclair De repente parecia que estava a ver um simulador de circuitos, tipo o pspice, ou o everycircuit 😅. Afinal é um jogo. Embora devam haver simuladores de circuitos para o ZX Spectrum...

@pmddomingos We can observe what extensive mobile usage has done to our children, and this happened during brain development. They become dumber where focus is needed, but on the other hand, they can operate better on shallow multitasking.

@pmddomingos That's a good question. I think it will change it, basically. The brain and its neuroplasticity ensures this adaptation, sure we can become dumber in some knowledge areas, but we start to operate on other higher (or lower) levels.

Will AI grow your brain or shrink it?

@brunobertolini Ora, se não houver conhecimento sobre a sintaxe, como poderá o sistema ser mantido? Percebe a contradição do que acabou de escrever? Com ou sem IA, é importante que exista alguém que compreenda o código que está a ser gerado, até mesmo para guiar a IA durante o desenvolvimento.

engraçado como ainda não caiu a ficha pra muito dev: seu conhecimento de sintaxe/linguagem não importa mais. "ah, mas a AI ainda gera código ruim" 1. o problema não é a AI, é seu contexto 2. mesmo que o codigo não fique perfeito, codigo é meio, não fim. Se o sistema é manutenível, minimamente organizado, o que importa é se funciona. Era assim antes da AI, continua sendo assim depois dela. Ou você acha que sistemas feitos sem AI eram perfeitos?

@d_sadovsky I played it on my ZX Spectrum 48K. Unfortunately I couldn't enjoy the wonderful AY music :)

@Youkhna @MinimalCompany I love that phone. Unfortunately I have already bought a new phone to replace my old device. I chose a TLC NXTPAPER, it mimics an e-ink display pretty well, but it's not the real thing, also the work they did on android helps, but again, it's a long shot from what I desire.

I still can’t believe this is a real phone.

@PAG_UM Boa iniciativa! Estão de parabéns! 👏

@ipadasher A Europa tem o Mistral.

@CommodoreBlog @CommodoreKazz @CommodoreLad @nyimski @commodoreofcl @AmigaReposts I love those games, but my old hands no longer have the needed dexterity. 😅

@aitrendz_xyz It's interesting observing that these AI videos are visually almost perfect, but they tend to violate the most basic physics principles.

This is honestly the best prompt I have ever seen

@sciencegirl I love this lol :) It's better than that laser mosquito killing machine I saw, because this one doesn't hurt those pesky pigeons!

A guy engineered an AI-powered pigeon defense system for his balcony Using a camera, AI detection, and servo-mounted targeting, the system identifies pigeons in real time and automatically sprays them with water 📹 muxamilian

@JWe9378 Yes.

Is anyone else here this old?

@LundukeJournal More crazy, irrational and nonsense stuff. Suddenly we have controls and restrictions popping out everywhere.

Worth noting: openSUSE’s change to forbid teenagers from reading openSUSE documentation… was put in place on March 10th of this year. And, according to the Wiki history, this change was “reviewed” by: - Chioma Benjamin (SUSE’s Vice President Divisional General Counsel) and - Luboš Kocman (SUSE release manager) In other words: This openSUSE policy change was put in place by SUSE corporate, with the involvement of SUSE’s legal counsel VP.

The openSUSE Linux project has updated their "Terms of Site" to prohibit anyone under the age of 16 from browsing any website hosted by openSUSE (including documentation and software repositories). "By using this site, you represent that you are at least 16 years of age or the age of majority in your jurisdiction." This rule would prohibit High School computer clubs, and any other minors from researching or using openSUSE Linux.
