Modern software development be like: I wrote 10 lines of code to call an API that calls another API, which calls yet another API that finally turns on a lightbulb. Pray that Cloudflare or AWS will not be down during this operation; otherwise, there will be no light for you.

@nixCraft it's doesn't have to be... Mine are all local network. I do use a mqtt server, though could do direct http to the lights too. @nixCraft I honestly find embarrassing that to print a file in my local library I need to email it and it will likely do a journey around the world before reaching the printer which is one step away from me. I'm happy I don't have to connect an untrusted USB to my phone, but I wish there were a middle ground with a local and secure by default protocol. @nixCraft And the sysadmin/SRE is the one who writes Golang templates to generate YAML that configures a system that configures a system that configures a system that configures a system that configures a system... sudo apt install food π€£ Also, check out all of my apt command examples https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-lts-debian-linux-apt-command-examples/ #ubuntu #debian #linux this is how bots army and click fraud take place. your uniq mobile id means nothing. Here is How they build the 3rd gen, 20 mobiles into a server chassis? 3rd generation click farm fraud involves mobile device servers, centralised and operated by one.

@nixCraft It's a Matrix pod, only it's unscrupulous and manipulative humans mercilessly exploiting innocent cellphones who think they're living on a real network. :blobcatsad:β You can store SSH usernames, hostnames, keys, ports, and other options for each server you connect to. This saves you from typing in lengthy commands each time. Here is how to create the ssh config file for #Linux, #macos, #FreeBSD, and #Unix https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/create-ssh-config-file-on-linux-unix/ men will literally buy used thinkpad and install arch #linux instead of going to therapy

@nixCraft omg lol i spent years installing/reinstalling arch on laptop, desktop, anywhere i could⦠What was i working through?? @nixCraft just an fyi, Fastfetch is an awesome alternative to Neofetch that runs quite a bit quicker: https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch Congrats on the new computer! I've heard Thinkpads are great!

@nixCraft Still the Nvidia CEO claims βCoding is dead. Donβt bother to learn to code.β The sales pitch triggers an irresistible urge to hoard 42 pens π #linux #opensource The Dead Internet theory feels closer to reality with each passing day. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Internet_theory

@nixCraft how inactive Lemmy is comments-wise compared to Reddit is proof of this theory for me.

Some of the biggest names in #opensource, #Linux, and #Unix world: Sebastian Hetze, Linus Torvalds, and Dennis Ritchie in conversation at the USENIX Annual Technical Conference in January 1997 If anyone, especially the Nvidia CEO, tells you not to teach your kids maths, science, coding, art, or personal finance. Ignore him and do the opposite of what he is saying. Teach your kids the skills they need to thrive. Embrace education for all kids. By encouraging critical thinking and a love of learning, you give your kids powerful tools to shape their futures, which also helps build strong nations.

Nvidia : Learn farming, not programming. @nixCraft Aye, I did raise an eyebrow over the "Don't learn coding, kids, let AI do it". Noteworthy coming from someone rolling in cash from the AI train. @nixCraft AI is doing nothing to help with the loud spinning fan noise and crashing proprietary driver. βI myself shall certainly continue to leave such research to others, and to devote my time to developing concepts that are authentic and trustworthy. And I hope you do the same.β βDon Knuth https://cs.stanford.edu/~knuth/chatGPT20.txt #donknuth Now that Uncle Sam declared c as illegal, you will code in Rust. Right? Let me tell you. Your code is still going to suck. It will still be buggy because your coding sucks. >Hey, but at least it will have memory safety. Right?

@nixCraft I remember when ADA was a preferred language for NATO (?) contracts for the 'if it compiles, it works' rationale. So, good luck refactoring the kernel of choice to rust. π Elon Musk just crawled from under a rock and discovered something that has been bothering people for years. It is just too funny not to share this one.

@nixCraft I expect that going public will show what a big, and quickly exploding bubble reddit actually is. I won't get anywhere near those shares. I will spend my money on more worthwhile investments. @nixCraft Frankly, if anyone still moderates reddit then it's most probably because of the power fantasy. Why would you fuck up your daily life to do clean up 12hrs a day? What in the world is a Warp Terminal? Well, it is a terminal built using Rust that includes several features, such as AI and cloud connectivity. However, it is worth noticing that it is proprietary and a 100% closed source. Additionally, users are required to have an account to use it. It is also bloated by design. No, thank you. I'll stick with the Gnome Terminal or Terminal macOS app. No matter what they say, you don't need the "Wrap Terminal" with bells and whistles. #privacy #security

@nixCraft The battle is on: Me vs. the sudden urge to use my keyboard as a pillow. Please send help.

@nixCraft Turn keyboar upside down, get cotton, hot glue it to the keyboard, order new keyboard, sleep @nixCraft@mastodon.social |
@nixCraft the funny thing is it seems like the only time I have to think about drivers these days is on windows. Downloading them from a website like a barbarian.
@nixCraft IT ME!! (well, would be, if it were viewable from here;)
@nixCraft funny π€£π
