Can’t believe it’s been a year already. Currently enjoying a month-long break from work, almost halfway through it. Realizing that I’m at an age where I need to recover from going to a museum, which is wild. But I’m taking the time to visit museums during my PTO instead of just sitting at home binge watching shows like normal.
Unrelated, I tried to crochet a Chucky doll and it turned out.. interesting.12 -
Are you better at coding than an AI? Developers don’t think so - and that could be a big problem
- Survey of 800 developers reveals over half believe AI can code better than humans
- But most are positive about changes AI is bringing
- Reservations remain, with job security, data privacy, and inaccuracies still causing concerns

Yapping about security tonight. Let's not talk about privacy. I have a very good quality camera for just 20 euro staring at me and mechanically following me wherever I walk that sends it's data trough China. If I watch the camera live stream on my app it goes trough China.
Well, thing is, I prefer the Chinese government above my own to know shit about me.
That scary light is the infrared light modus.
It has a 32gb card in it and it only saves when there's activity or sound. It can watch until two weeks back. It's not full HD iirc but it's very clear. Even at night. Really should not be possible for 20 euro.8 -
Day #7, of turning into a Simp for Claude Code, yesterday it surprized me again.
I'm developing a Python-Qt6 GUI to help me run about 100 small scripts I generated and use sparecely...I know squat about Qt6 and the only python I ever did was FastAPI code.
So it generated the app, and I creeped as many features I could think on it, one of those was auto dark-mode setting (so I can feel like a grown up hacker)... of course it broke the UI.
The interesting part comes next: as I struggled trying to solve it myself, I asked it to create a test and try to solve the UI issue.
So it creates a Test Window, shows me and instructs me on how to test it, asking for my input, and solves the f UI issue.
Then it destroys the test code Just to show me who's the boss.6 -
I raised AI integration to a new level: https://devrant.molodetz.nl/Screenc...
It knows what i have on screen using OCR, it knows what windows I have open using X11 API, it knows my current environment information so it knows that it can execute and stuff.
Also, check the picture, what a genius. But I hate their babysitting so much, let the AI's just do what we ask. If we want to share an API key, we share an API key and use it in a script! It's MY responsibility. I'm an adult y'know.4 -
Well it finally happened… I deleted the production DB 🤦🏼♂️
Rollback successful but lost over 3 hours of production data6 -
Apple is terrible shit
Imagine someone deploying this shit to production at a trillion-dollar company.4 -
Some people are the reasons that some company banned "remote-working", I am here thinking that "bro, don't abuse it, the last thing I expect is we all work onsite"4

Angular is a pile of dog shit.
Making web dev unbearable and harder since 2010 (or 2016 if you ignore AngularJS).
Fuck you, Miško Hevery2 -
First, the motherfucker CRLF. I wrote some test cases, split the string into lines. It worked fine until I pulled it from Git. Spent 30 minutes fixing it until I looked down at the VSCode statusbar and saw... "CRLF"!4

Wow, function overload is worst than garbage! Is more like toxic waste!
If you run out of names for functions just name them:
DoThatStuff1(int, string)
DoThatStuff2(object, int, string)
instead of:
DoThatStuff(int, string)
DoThatStuff(object, int, string)
Your coworkers and future you will thank you!7 -
Still having problems with samba doing weird shit. Now looking through the logs and
Hm... *that* doesn't seem right 🤔3 -
Some time 199x, when I was still a little kiddo, my dad bought a PC. It had a big ass HDD (dimensions-wise), 1x 3.5" floppy disk drive and a 5.25" floppy disk drive. It ran DOS. Dad managed to hook up a dot matrix Epson printer to it and used the computer for writing... whatever, really :)
Then dad got some of those 5" floppies with games and installed them on our PC. Mach3, Indy, Entity and Atlantis were my favourite ones. Later we got Wolfenstein 3-D, but that was just too scary, too intense for me.
All that was years before we got Windows 3.0 installed there.
