IPv4...

Hahahahahaha.

Well... OK, it is still relevant && widely used, so yeah... should be supported. Weird that the provider did that.

@Lensflare To be fair, I do question upvoting such things for that very reason.

Though, if one were to do an upvote while thinking 'Yes, serves you right' or similar, would just be weird as well... it's like leaving 5★ review when you leave a comment that the thing is broken. Makes no sense.

All in all pretty much aligning w/ BordedDev.

@Lensflare True. I remember thinking that the 2nd foreign language on top of English they introduced in high school was an overkill.

Another MITM scenario?

@Lensflare My guess would be 'Stay strong' or something along that one.

Chose to be !lazy this time around. Checked Google Translate for Belgian... which doesn't exist... obviously. Also, the country can't even decide on one official language, it would seem, as officially they speak Dutch, French, && German. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... .

AI:

- NL: Kunstmatige intelligentie (KI).

/* Nah, that's !it. */

- FR: Intelligence artificielle (IA).

/* Ah... there we go. */

I do agree, though. We speak English here, so 'IA' is confusing.

@Lensflare Hmm... true enough.

@CaptainRant Soft skills are a lie. At least as far as I'm concerned. I'll take any one who speaks plain truth over the 'polite' backstabbers every time.

/* Obviously I'm referring to the soft skills regarding interaction w/ other people. */

@qwwerty Never said that I don't clean them. Most of the time it's just dusting off, though, because that's enough.

@Lensflare Hmm... that's true. My old keyboards would last much longer than the more recent ones.

Just went through that shit. I seem to be completely cured after two weeks. WFH has its advantages _sometimes_.

Also, way too many people take offense when told they're wrong nowadays... which I find both weird && alarming. When you can't even comprehend that you _can_ be wrong...

@BordedDev Happens to me w/ some apps on Android even when the review was 5★. I'm guessing those apps are so badly written that they just periodically... or w/ each update pester you for the review.

Yup. That's irritating as hell. In recent memory, this thing plagues my Nintendo 3DS that I chose to hack... because I also own the New Nintendo 3DS XL, so the old one had been collecting dust until then. It does want to update its firmware && is very persistent about it, though.

I'm glad to say that I've never worked for one, as well.

Indeed.

Hmm... https://devopsreactions.tumblr.com/... . Sums up fairly well, I'd say.

@kinu Wow... That's just a disaster waiting to happen. The Overreliance on LLMs.

@Lensflare > 'what would you bet on?

* mistake due to illiteracy

* intentional due to some idiotic reason'

Hmm...

- I didn't care that much to check whether 'IA' is a localized term, but would be my first idea.

- Then, I would think 'dyslexia'.

- Should the two previous ones return false, I'd go w/ your 2nd entry.

@Lensflare I like my mouse way too much to risk damaging it, though. I don't eat by the keyboard. Saves me the risk of getting it dirty.

> 'To make it trickier, this guy tends to “vibecode” a lot, to the point that he can’t even explain what the code his Copilot spits out is doing.'

The way to properly deal w/ a junior that does that is to find a shed && take that junior behind it. One needs a belt for the activity, too.

/jk

On a serious note, wanting to use code that's been spit up by an LLM && you have no idea of how it works... that junior needs to unlearn that type of thinking very quickly.

Yeah. I find it highly irritating when they think they can get highly skilled people && people w/ soft skills. It used to be the case that CS field was filled w/ quirky, but skilled individuals. Too many normies expecting the soft skills because they're !accustomed to dealing w/ geeks && whatnot.

> 'founder is vibe coding the app with claude and pushes like 500 times daily directly to master, (...)'

Hmm... I think I know why the people left... either that or the people left because the founder thought he didn't need them. All in all, sounds like a nice clusterfuck.

Sounds like you're a miracle worker. The hardware is working once more thanks to you.

Crumbs... that's disgusting.

@BordedDev Well, my humorous remark led to an update, as intended, so that's good. Weird choice by the server people to switch to IPv6 only connection. Unless it was a fuckup or a test.

@lorentz I... don't envy you.

Day 6 of snek withdrawal. The jitters began.

> 'I know I have a problem with asking for help.'.

I've been told just that a few times. Also, it's been provided as a reason for 'poor communication skills'.

...thing is, if I can find the information I need myself, why the fuck should I even bother asking others? ...especially when most of the time when I asked about something to 'throw them a bone' it was always the case that I'd have a roundabout conversation && I would have to explain all the things I've already done, checked or whatever.

As such, efficiency-wise, I'm better off searching for whatever I need myself.

You, however, seem to be having a slightly different problem.

@whimsical I'm sure dad just wanted to teach you about actions && consequences. That said, I have way to little information to actually know for sure.

@Lensflare > 'I noticed you write IA instead of AI every time.'

I was slightly confused by that, as well.
