Of all the cope I expected, this wasn't on my list until now. Now that art has been generated, we will stop there, and that code is generated our reason to do any of that (marketing as an end in itself) has been concluded and we will shut down all operations now.

Glad he had connections to get out of the psychiatric institution. Thinking of all the unfortunate people without the means being incarcerated there with their misdiagnosis, getting put down with antipsychotics

He needs mouse bites to live

>These people are now dependent on their level of income.

Kinda sucks if you take a seven figure per annum job and are now dependent on their level of income. Quick question: Is this true for everyone? If I take a job that pays twice of what I earn now, my food spending is going to double for instance? Or is this an american thing?

Yeah, otherwise the USA would have been invaded by Cuba, Iraq, Vietnam, Syria, Afghanistan, Yemen and a hundred more, and they all would have a fight over who can have it. Thank god the US defended themselves against those terrible guys. Especially the WMDs were quite the close call, the Iraqis were minutes away from nuking the land of the mart.

>...abandons the family to do drugs and alcohol? How can you blame “the system” for that?

We don't live in a vacuum and there a reasons why people turn to drug use that the system exacerbates. But that is completely irrelevant, because this blog post is a systemic critique, even if it is told through the life story of an individual. To cherry pick one stanza of the entire blog post to dismiss it on the grounds that the father who left is a drug addict is one more example of the delusions or strategies of the moralizing capitalist.

This doesn't have to be the way. I write documents using typst, with the occasional latex document sprinkled in by necessity. Not everybody needs a WYSIWYG editor. Most of them are WYGIWYG anyway. You're free to use whatever tools you like, but claiming that something is _the_ way would be absurd. And if you like little bloat, a system that just works across many domains, you don't need 100 different "apps" that each try to implement the features you get when chaining together the coreutils.

Vim is my only text editor, I use it for writing everything. Emails, scripts, messages, 100k+ lines codebases, prose, never needed this plugin. One line for 80 char wrap on certain filetypes, and a that is it, never needed such a plugin.

For prose, you can simply hard wrap at 80 (arguably you should), and vim supports this via a single config line. OOTB vim soft breaks anyway and you can navigate between in those broken lines via gj, gk etc.

Seems like bloat to me.

Imagine paying for a file browser. This is why windows will always win. They have the most docile userbase ever. They'd rather pay 250 bucks for a file picker than to change OS.

It's all so tiresome

Maybe not posting such comments would increase the value of this site.

Yes there is the great 9front and the useful plan9port. I run 9front on an old thinkpad, but I plan on doing a little more with it, having a dedicated CPU server, storage server etc will be the next step

Welcome back Plan9

Are these posts just made to have a better chance of being hired?

I am the "Y-combinator". Do you have any questions?

We have textual slop, visual slop, audio slop, so we asked: "What else do we want to sloppify?". And then it dawned on me. ICs. ICs haven't been slopped yet — sure, we could ask the machine to generate some vhdl, but that isn't the same. So we present: Silicon Slop.

I am actually astonished. Is this what happens when the NYU board of directors tells every department they have to use and create AI, or they will stop funding? What is going on?

So using a screen reader with a terminal is somehow worse than using a screen reader on a cluttered gui?

I don't think there is anything more accessible than lines of text in a grid. Maybe you don't need to make every button of every GUI program ever accessible.

But I guess you are right. If one wants to use a computer like you use it on windows, then linux is a bad choice. The best choice in that case is windows.

Your file manager is not your operating system, use something else to view images.

I have all those "usage scenarios", which are in fact absolute basics and thus it's worth remembering 3 commands. The problem arises when one uses a Desktop environment with a dock and all other bloated nonsense. Maybe computing is solved once people reverse the brain damage inflicted by Windows and MacOS.

I'm not sorry for my attitude, because OP is the reason computing sucks and becomes more bloated and telemetry ridden every year. It's pure laziness to learn something new. Linux should be there for everyone, but shouldn't be called "immature" just because someone needs a perfect clone of the windows file picker, or wants his proprietary windows programs to run. Thats all good and fair, but not linux' problem.

Epic ragebait.

> Win11 file picker is years ahead of some random file picker option available on linux

First it would be nice to know why you would think this and maybe provide an example, second there are other file pickers. It should also be noted that you don't need one at all, but if you want one, there are so many options, try nemo

Wayland

> Multi monitor scaling polish

What did he mean by that? Wayland supports different scaling factors between displays.

> rdp

VNC, ssh + pf

> vastly superior accessibility

Hahahahaha

Some examples of what you mean please, otherwise this is just a lazy shill answer

There is the MIT+ni*ger license. Please don't ban me, just saying. No company would ever use your software given this license, but your users may boycott you too

ffmpeg exists, if you don't like it and can't use (don't want to learn) the shell and ffmpegs commands, there is OBS with all those features and more. I don't see the usecase.

I don't know about you, but I have a large selection of 10 bit HEVC movies and series on my system, and hardware decoding for this is pretty nice. Apart from that, videos taken on apple devices use HEVC by default last time I checked. But in the end, it's still not that important probably, doesn't mean that it shouldn't be available/accessible

Great joke. Truly a free and untraceable currency the plebs are profiting off right now. I am mining some too! I just cashed out my 50 dollars profit and bought myself a meal at my local trader Joe's, next time when I'm there, I will probably pay with chainlink though.

Never learned anything through leetcode I couldn't have learned more in depth by my personal projects. Leetcode feels like some bullshit you talk about on LinkedIn in an LLM like voice, as is

> We all know skills in programming are important

>But it is not just writing code, but also solving problems quickly and with the right tools.

>Before doing leetcode, I didn't really know how to tackle the challenges I was presented at work. I would still perform, but not like I do now, being on the top 100 leaderboard

>also please please hire me please I am starving

Leetcode is pretentious bullshit for american HR departments.

It's very interesting to see that there actually are people who want to automatically create a "podcast" from their blog using their cloned voice. Is this just what tech bro culture does to someone? Or is it about hustling and grinding while getting your very important word out there. I mean over time one would certainly save up to 20 minutes for each article...

LLM slop. Why do people (presumably) take the time to debug something like this, do tests and go to great lengths, but are too lazy to do a little manual writeup? Maybe the hour saved makes up for being associated with publishing AI slop under your own name? Like there is no way the author would have written a text that reads more convoluted than what we have here.
