Bonjour ! Je suis un développeur polyvalent : mobile, desktop, embarqué, IoT,...
Sinon, je suis aussi bricoleur, voyageur, ferrovipathe, photographe amateur, vélocipédiste...
A mes heures (vraiment) perdues, je lis Wikipédia. Avec le bouton "Au hasard".

Les pubs vont arriver dans Whatsapp cette année en Europe.

Il est temps de passer à la version Premium qui:
- n’a pas de pub
- n’a pas d’IA intégrée obligatoire
- ne vous espionne pas et ne récolte pas vos données
- améliore grandement votre sécurité et votre vie privée.
- permet de discuter exclusivement avec les autres utilisateurs Premium.

Et le meilleur c’est que cette version Premium est pour le moment gratuite (le paiement est facultatif).

Alors installez-la !

Elle s’appelle : "Signal"

A surge in new datacenters, each with the power demand of 100,000 households and a cooling water demand of 1,000,000 m³ per year to train AI models on material obtained without consent on hardware now unaffordable to consumers so fascism-adjacent tech billionaires can sell us the idea that any skill is now worthless and in doing so creating the largest economic bubble ever while simultaneously destroying society and environment.

I think that about sums it up.

I wrote a blog post about why we in the photography space *still* complain about Apple's Aperture going away over a decade later.

It was a *really* good app.

Daniel Kennett - A Lament For Aperture, The App We'll Never Get Over Losing

I'm an old Mac-head at heart, and I've been using Macs since the mid 1990s (the first Mac I used was an LC II with System 7.1 installed on it). I don't tend to think that the computing experience was better in the olden days — sure, there's a thing to be said about the simplicity of older software, but most of my fondness for those days is nostalgia. An exception to that, however, is Apple's Aperture.

Moi : "Tiens, ils mettent du sel sur la route, ça va peut-être dire qu'il va neiger.
Fils : c'est peut-être les aliens qui assaisonnent la Terre avant de nous manger."
Tradwife? More like RADwife!

Forcing software engineers to use LLMs is like forcing chefs to use microwaves.

It may be faster, but are you a fast food restaurant, and if so, why did you even hire a chef?

Any reason why two (apparently) unrelated companies present the exact same function 37 minutes apart ?
