Deepfakes eskalieren: Warum Frauen im Netz nicht mehr sicher sind | Fun Facts mit Pheline Roggan

It's clear that AI assisted coding is dividing developers (welcome to the culture wars!). I've seen a few blog posts now that talk about how some people just "love the craft", "delight in making something just right, like knitting", etc, as opposed to people who just "want to make it work". As if that explains the divide.

How about this, some people resent the notion of being a babysitter to a stochastic token machine, hastening their own cognitive decline. Some people resent paying rent to a handful of US companies, all coming directly out of the TESCREAL human extinction cult, to be able to write software. Some people resent the "worse is better" steady decline of software quality over the past two decades, now supercharged. Some people resent that the hegemonic computing ecosystem is entirely shaped by the logic of venture capital. Some people hate that the digital commons is walled off and sold back to us. Oh and I guess some people also don't like the thought of making coding several orders of magnitude more energy intensive during a climate emergency.

But sure, no, it's really because we mourn the loss of our hobby.

Heads up - don't just do the major version bump to 6.0.0 for the 'setup-gradle' GitHub action, without being clear about the implications for your setup.

Ich oute mich jetzt mal...

Als es die "Liste der #Amazon #Alternativen" nur als Repo auf #Codeberg gab, hab ich sie selbst praktisch nie benutzt. War mir einfach viel zu umstaendlich. Also hab ich die Liste zwar maintained, mehr aber auch nicht.

Seit ich das Ganze in eine Website gegossen und die letzten Wochen permanent dran gefeilt habe, hab ich praktisch nix mehr bei Amazon, sondern nur noch bei Shops von dieser Site bestellt.

Witzig, oder? 😃

🚨 New Blog Post Alert: Kotlin-lsp Packaging Pt 2

First time dealing with prebuilt binaries in Nix. What looked like a simple version bump ended up involving a native library, some patchelf debugging, and pulling in libgcc for libgcc_s.so.1.

autoPatchelfHook from nixpkgs made it fairly straightforward in the end.

Packaging kotlin-lsp for NixVim (Part 2)

How a version bump exposed native library dependencies in kotlin-lsp and what it takes to package them on NixOS

What Google is doing to Android is not a "good compromise". What they do is spinning a narrative around fear (aka security) to justify taking more control. They don't do things for the reasons they say. That ship has long sailed.

They are a capitalist company that has much too much power. They want to control as much as they can too make as much money as they can.

They do not care about good products anymore. They do not care about community. They do not care about sustainable open source.

its wild that "treat people with basic dignity" became a radical political position. i remember when it was just called "not being a dick." we used to have that
