I'm building a site that aggregates remote developer jobs from ~40 job boards: https://devmote.net

A new PS console already? PS5 will be remembered as the worst PS generation.

Say what you want about Google, but Google Takeout is one of the few reasons I'm still using their services. And it was created in 2011, when GDPR and other data export regulations didn't ex…

This reminds me of the good Internet that was.

When Google Reader closed I started using The Old Reader and then after 3 or 4 years jumped to Inoreader. I've been using it since then without paying anything and it works ok.

Right now AI is lifting up the floor, so if you don't know programming, mandarin or any other topic it will sure do better than you. (Vibe coding goes here) Same for tasks you know how to do but …

How can a novel compete with an interactive character that provides a roleplay conversation "a la carte" adjusting to the user and their preferences? You want a dominant partner, maybe an in…

And AI boyfriends for females. If you check apps like character.ai or similar there is a huge roster of male AI characters to chat with. I think this is less skewed for male users than the porn conten…

Stallman was right.

I'm always commenting the same on these posts. The web bubble also popped and look how it went for Google, Amazon, Meta and many others. Remember pets.com that sold pet products on the internet, …

That reminds me of a phrase that I read some years ago: "A typical Google engineer could describe their job as ‘taking protocol buffers and turning them into other protocol buffers’."

True, the only right answer for a question like "Should we use X here?" is "It depends". Maybe NIH is the right answer in some specific case but not on another that seems quite sim…

Are you telling me that new shiny things are not always better that established, time tested and boring tech? Sometimes I feel like we software engineers have the worst memory of any engineers.

Microsoft Access requires more training (tables, foreign keys...) and from experience most of the people using Excel managed to bend it to do what they wanted. The maintainability of the resulting sys…

Not to troll, I'm asking in good faith Is this filesystem stable enough for deploying on 200 production machines? From a cursory look I get things like this: https://hackaday.com/…

An aggregator of remote developer jobs: https://devmote.net It uses Go & SQLite, the nice thing is that the DB is readonly and baked into the deployed container. I use cron on my home …

Time is the answer here, if this dance is 2 hours and implementing it by hand is 8 hours you have won. Also while Claude Code is crunching floats you can do other things (maybe direct another agent in…

If you are going to ask ChatGPT some specific tidbit it's better to force it to search on the web. Remember, an LLM is a JPG of all the text of the internet.

Are you refering to the blocking of Cloudflare when La Liga matches are played? That affects sites that use Cloudflare, but it's not the fault of Dockerhub.

> Why are micropayments so hard? Because Visa & Mastercard are greedy dicks?

In my career I have been a "Perl programmer", a "Java programmer", a "Python programmer", a "JS programmer"... the common word in all of these titles being &quo…

This reminds me of the story [1] about Facebook intentionally breaking parts of its Android app for some users (including crashing or disabling functionality), to see how far it could degrade before u…

AI coding should be better with a little profesionalism thrown in. I mean, if you have commit that code you are responsible for it. Period. And I say this as a grumpy senior that has found a lot of va…

Developing for MacOS I would be really scared about being "sherlocked": https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherlock_(software) …

The only constant in mobile development is churn. I had apps on Google Play and every year I had to upgrade libs, recompile and loose and afternoon (or two) to not win anything, just churn for the sak…

Apart from using SVG the design of that page has that vintage 2000s feel... don't know why but I love it
