Make Coding Fun Again!
I post short videos; occasionally irrelevant, but hopefully innovative and informative.
See them here and on my 🎥 YouTube channel:

@johnoftharsis@Microinteracti1 It seems that just using Linux as my OS makes me weird enough for Facebook to not let me in. I don't get the whole thing to be honest.
@suryanox7 Would you accept a 40% higher salary if the company... sure, don't even need to finish the sentence. They can use my time however they like, that's how work works, best not be too precious about it.
When intending not to change a C++ value, you declare it as const, fine within a function scope, but if you return it, it's forced to copy instead of move the variable.
Anyway. I made two shorts on it, which is better?
The other approach would be to say that since the Cloud LLM providers ignore copyright when they generate models, that you cannot claim copyright on AI generated output. Which is basically the end of copyright, and maybe that's okay. Society evolves past many ideas.
Valid concerns about mass harvesting of open source code (and art,science,literature,etc) by proprietary Cloud LLM providers without any attribution, who generate proprietary work from it. I don't know the solution. Perhaps a tithe of their profits could go to original creators.
The corporate fiduciary duty to maximise profits doesn't allow giving money away from nothing, but farmers have to plant as well as harvest. This goes back to protecting the "creative commons" that is the wellspring of all business and innovation.

@LundukeJournal This actually makes sense. The tidal wave of slop means that their old text of "low quality" is too subjective. We still haven't invented the cross distro gatekeeper free way to distribute desktop apps on Linux+BSD. Anything not relying on human review is trivially gameable.
The printing press standardised European languages character sets, the metal blocks were expensive so they manufactured a common Latin set. Even English lost a few characters like Thorn. Here are characters we lost from Old to Modern English (for this and other reasons):
@RajputNikh13836 Lenovo (and Dell, and a few smaller companies) work with the Linux community to make sure their laptops are supported. There is a huge difference in hassle for the user between a manufacturer that supports Linux and those that don't. And ThinkPads have a decent amount of ports.
@Shivam25mishra They don't. Statistically most developers are still stuck on Windows! As your level of agency and skill increases, you go from Windows to Mac to Linux.
@it_unprofession Also the recruiters have a trump card to prove their value, only we can get you these senior guys, who will never apply to your broken forms or jump through your time waiting hoops.
@it_unprofession These forms/Linkedin and any kind of jobsite pointless for senior (maybe all?) roles. They must come to me. Not passively, I find out who the recruiters and people with the budget to hire people are and make friends with them, so when there is a new vacancy, I am on their mind.
@SammieT26@it_unprofession The most rational decision to be honest. Don't play a rigged game. All the best places I have worked, they, or their recruiters, reached out to me. Anything I have taken the initiative and applied to have been total crap shows.
