Programming and self hosting the results when I was ~14 is what led me to a tech background. No university, but I’ve been working professionally in both IT and software for over a decade and self hosting even longer.

What we can work on is awareness. If iOS users are aware, they can choose to simply go to the website directly and make the purchase, instead of using the app. They can still use the app for consumption.

When it comes to commits, single feature / scoped commits are quality. So this git history is actually underwhelming if the author is full time. This is a good read.

Man, they just keep burying their head further. I still have Windows 10 on my gaming PC, and that’s more because I plan on replacing it and will use that moment to transition to Linux, but up until a few months ago I could have been convinced to keep using Windows.

That was until they popped up a full screen ad in the middle of gaming, telling me my PC doesn’t work with 11 but they have great financing options forn a 11 capable PC. Followed by my lock screen having ads of a similar nature. Fucking gross.

Reject UUID embrace ULID.

Copilot / LLM code completion feels like having a somewhat intelligent helper who can think faster than I can, however they have no understanding of how to actually code, but are good at mimicry.

So it’s helpful for saving time typing some stuff, and sometimes the absolutely weird suggestions make me think of other scenarios I should consider, but it’s not going to do the job itself.

There shouldn’t be much aside from cooking and screen size. This being said, in the U.S. at least the jump to the E14/P15 gen1 on the aftermarket isn’t that much in terms of price and the performance has a significant improvement.

Or those scummy click bait ads disguised as related articles? They make my blood boil with how they prey on the vulnerable.

I’ve been using Porkbun for over 5 years and haven’t had any issues. I switched from a mix of Google Domains and Namecheap.

Generally the country based TLDs have that problem. That isn’t unique to porkbun or .de

What if my job title says that? Who’s going to tell my employer they’re wrong.

Then again, “full stack software engineer” as a title might also well just be buzzwords.

!And yes, I know the site is satire lol.!<

I see we have like minded bosses lol

The Dockerfile is essentially the instructions for deploying from scratch. Sure, they most likely only exist for one distro but adapting isn’t a huge chore.

You can also clone the repo and build the container yourself. If you want to update say, log4j, and then attempt to build it, that’s still entirely possible and easier than from scratch considering the build environment is consistent.

Based on your description it sounds like you haven’t given it a fair shake. I’ll take TS over JS any day, at least there is room for improvement. I will say however I personally haven’t been unlucky enough to run into projects that abuse the any type. The worst I’ve run into is a JS library with no typings I have to manually type.

Not sure if it counts, but a web server I took over had a checkout process that took about 10 seconds. I added a queue and offloaded everything not a required verification step and took the request down to under a second.

Licensing code is a pain and realistically you need to consult a lawyer who specializes in the area.

When I do freelance work I sell them the code and a perpetual use license that allows them to do pretty much anything outside of selling the code. If they want to own the code itself that’s extra. But I also haven’t consulted a lawyer either and I’ve only done that sort of transaction twice.

ORM with an easy and straightforward way to execute custom queries is the sweet spot to me. Let the ORM handle the basics (and migrations), override / add optimized queries where relevant.

Ditto. Now I can take the reins and replace it now instead of when I need it.

That’s what I wound up doing on a work project. Works really well.
