This is the future Animorphs promised me.

And their own Unix before that. And arguably their own Linux compatible kernel until they dropped that ball.

Err, yeah, that. I dunno why I thought he was Goofys. Thanks :)

I'd rename Pluto after Mickey's dog

I don't want to read vibe code, I want to see a humans code.

You know full well that AI vibe coding is a completely different level of assist to "forums for help".

Can I suggest you have some rules around AI assisted code? Like explicitly marking them at a minimum?

Otherwise, sounds good, hope it takes off.

Can I introduce you to the concept of "fire" :D

A single bitflip wiping your novel is incredibly unlikely, to the point of being almost impossible. Modern OSs and filesystems are fairly resilient, and the data is likely all still there.

That would be really cool. And kinda fits the "organic growth by subdividing" model

It's part of the same family, so I don't see why not.

I've not experienced piefed first hand, but from what I heard it joins Cross posts somehow? Lemmy you can create your own feed by subbing to communities, is piefed different?

[โ€“] CameronDev@programming.dev 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I think those are different in that you don't need discourse. You can post away, and if no one responds its not a big deal. But other communities, especially ones that people might go to for help or advice, getting zero responses to a question is spirit crushing.

I personally dislike the cross posting in lemmy, as it results in seeing the same post 3-4 times in a row, which is kinda annoying as well. I believe piefed does it better (dunno if anyone can confirm that?).

Those niche communities work on reddit because there is a huge userbase to keep them alive. If you create them here, you get an empty community that looks dead, which discourages people from posting.

Having an active "hobbies" community going first, and then later splitting off the "knitting" community when it's clear that there are lots of knitters means that you don't get empty dead communities.

You can't force the niche community into existence, it has to grow organically.

 

Every year, I grab my camera and head out to try take a photo of a firework. Every year I get a blurry mess of poorly exposed photos. This is the best one I got this year.

 
 

Seems like its been pinned there somehow, despite being 2 days old. Happens when logged out as well.

 

Hi All. This might not be for everyone, and is very rough around the edges, but I have written a tool to more easily test how custom addressable RGB effects work.

Simply copy the code portion of the lamba into a text file, and then build and run, and it will output on your terminal how the effect will look.

It is very rough, you need a C compiler, and a RGB/TrueColor capable terminal.

If it works for you, let me know, if it doesn't, also let me know.

I dunno if this is appropriate for this community, so mods, please delete if not.

I have been writing a screen clone in rust.

https://github.com/cameroncros/PoorMansScreen/tree/better_screen (The main branch is how I currently use it, not at all screen-like, the better_screen branch is much closer to a screen replacement.)

It all currently works fine, albeit quite simple, and I suspect not following best practices. Please talk shit about my code so I can fix that :D

For my next stage of development, I would like to use some combo of vt100 and ratatui to wrap the shell in a border, or add a menu bar at the top or bottom to make it clear when the user is inside a "screen". Does anyone have any thoughts on how to go about doing that? I am very unskilled at ratatui.

 

Hi All. I have been watching a lot of House lately, and just started "Extrodinary Attorney Woo". I am curious to know what you all think of their portrails of Autism. Is it pandering? Representation? Romantisation?

Also see "The Good Doctor", "Atypical", "Love on the spectrum" etc.

Cutting Garolite (G10) (programming.dev)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by CameronDev@programming.dev to c/3dprinting@lemmy.ml
 

I posted here a while back when my glass bed failed. One of the suggestions was to replace with Garolite or G10. My sheet finally arrived and i set about cutting it down to size.

...

Within 4cm, my basically unused jigsaw blade was worn flat, and by the end of the first cut (20cm), there is basically no more teeth.

For the second side, I tried using a multitool cutter, and within a few millimeters it was visibly blunt (plastic and metal tools). Finished it off with a standard wood hand saw, which seemed to go better.

So warning to anyone considering garolite, dont use power tools, it will fuck them up.

 

I have just realised that alien.top seems to be mirroring reddit accounts, posts and comments, without labelling them as such. What is the point of this one way mirroring? As soon as users realise, they are going to just leave. There is no point having a discussion with a bot that cannot respond.
