I know I'm getting old, but who let juniors vibe code a company. And why can you not use AI to refactor it to sanity. Rewriting when you get it that bad the first time around will not work.

I'm not even American, but wtf is Europe doing. They were once a moral bar now they're dropping the ball everywhere.

I can't understand the love for Jellyfin. Kodi lets you pick multiple sources of data, but Jellyfin flips it on its head and requires you pick a single server, choose the sources there, then add Kodi or something else all over again. It's just more steps for no gain.

No vision.

Windows is utter ass.

They don't even use their own browser, languages, or OS half the time because they're so bad.

I don't use it but stuff like VS Code is a point of light but they run it like an internal project, and will drive it into the ground, just like GitHub.

I'm not even going to read the article and just respond to the headline. Linux is not good now. Windows and macOS are worse than they've ever been.

I got a cheque for some fuck up for $8. In this day and age, sending a cheque for a small amount like that is a dick move. You know heaps of people will not even bother. Many people have never seen a cheque these days.

In mainstream/SV coding, I would say the scales just barely tipped toward composition in the late 10s... There are plenty of programmers still completely oblivious, the inertia is huge. Plus the swing back is too strong, inheritance is very powerful, just not as generic as originally thought.

Open source is sick. Everyone wants it (both to maintain a successful project, and to use them) until you maintain a popular project for a reasonable time then your realise you're getting used for fuck all value.

We need a healthy way to support open source developers. This isn't working. Companies are taking advantage, and individuals are overwhelmed with choice and have delusional expectations.

I've reported a trivially reproducible mmap issue that causes Darwin to spiral into locking up with no apparent reason. "Not a vulnerability".

I also reported a bug in Safari HTTP proxy handling that prevents encryption. No reply.

I provided source code, and reproduction steps for both.

Fuck Apple
