Is this the SalesForce thing? I heard about this at work. Not sure if our place was affected or not. They haven't said anything since they initially mentioned it. I checked my google account and didn't notice anything weird. So I dunno. Sounds like they targeted businesses.

@Root did he delete his post? I could have sworn he posted here.

@Root yeah, it is wild. The comments are even wilder. Full blown brawl down there.

I thought the most reliable way to make windows iso was to use that windows flash drive program you have to download from microsoft. No idea if that will work under wine. I had problems so I make all usb flash drives in windows 10 using rufus. But windows bootable media I use the microsoft tool.

keyboard replacement? external keyboard?

@jestdotty so I saw that suicide was a leading cause of death in Canada. I thought that can't be. So I looked i up, assisted suicide is the 5th leading cause of death in Canada in 2024. It is really fucked. Yet people are like that must be fake like I thought originally. I don't know what are the contributing factors to this though.

@MM83 I hear things from a lot of different places. Sometimes its a thing and sometimes not. I avoid the MSM/AP as much as possible. I have found them misrepresenting or flat out lying on numerous occasions. They especially like to omit stuff.

So mostly Telegram, Reddit, Youtube right now. Then I will search around to see if I can find out what is really up. But like I said, I have huge distrust for AP.

@MM83

probably this:

@BordedDev I am thinking they were anally probed by aliens and given lsd.

@BordedDev I don't know then. Sometimes I get memory errors loading a page. I just figured there is some jank.

UK is lost if they don't act soon. Complaining about migrants destroying their society is considered terrorism. The cops there literally show up and arrest you for gardening tools.

@antigermgerm Hey, I found a song you might like:

The dude apparently made it around 2016 and later deleted it. He was not happy that people were interpreting it in a way he did not intend. The guy that made it is leftist, but now all the leftists are calling him far right because of the video. Wild.

Instructions unclear, 🍆 stuck in 🍑.

Commenting died a while back. Then someone came back and fixed the devrant. Fixed images too.

@galena yeah, I was wondering if we could use libcurl. Not sure it will fit though. Space is limited.

@jassole we support those industries. We have also had chinese companies steal our work (our chinese affiliates no less). So we are actively making it harder for them to do so. There are trade secrets in the code as well. Not so much the parts, but the whole. The ways its used.

edit: It may very well have sensitive info in there that I don't recognize. Maybe knowledge of customer practices to some extent.

Also, to be fair. Almost every time I see a new C++ repository. I soon realize I don't know shit about C++ either.

The lack of emotional control in your posts is astounding. Every emotion you feel is an excuse to behave poorly I have a hard time relating to this, or understanding this.

Are you a victim in your mind?

I have domains that I make bogus accounts for. Then only let places see the accounts I want them to see. So any place I don't really trust gets something like:

bogus@<domain>

fuckyou@<domain>

yourmom@<domain>

etc

Back in early web telnet places wanted email. So I would often put in: fuckyou@eatshit.cum. This might actually work on some websites because some don't verify.

If I don't know a library I will chatgpt to create example that I can have it tweak. That saves probably an hour or two of finding an example that shows the intended API. Having it tweak helps to find functions I would need configuring the API. So it is useful up front. But not 80% of what I am doing. I am not even sure how I would accomplish using it for 80%.

We have a policy of not letting external AI models look at your code. We plan on making internal models for this. It will be interesting to see how useful these internal models will be. Interpretation of our existing codebase will be interesting as well. Lots of different coding styles and approaches. Some of the code just makes me want to work somewhere else. I hope a model that learns our codebase doesn't suggest we do things the same for a lot of our shitty code.

@antigermgerm isn't Z some symbol Russians are using in their war in Ukraine. I don't quite understand why.

@Root

The funniest thing I have seen a CS intern say: "I know C++ because I took a class." Then we showed them the code and they realized they didn't know shit about C++.

Will wonders never cease?

Cooked a burger and put a fair bit of salt and pepper on it. Then I put some fairly thick 1/4" gouda on top and nuked to make cheese softer. While eating this my mind is registering this as 1" thick bacon the whole time. It was crazy good!

Somebody accused them of having no class. They took it literally.

@jestdotty I will work on it. Thanks

@atheist ah fuck, you don't even get the gimpy spot. Lame...

@atheist

You get best parking at any location and you just turn your nose up at it? ;-)

Writing test code using libcurl. Had to make it follow redirects to get it to print out anything my webserver was sending. Doh!

I am not using libcurl, but I want to simulate all the network stuff that I am doing in embedded so I can test out all my c code that processes returned data.

@Lensflare I see articles touting AI for making whole games. I don't know what kind of cluster fuck it is making with these. I have to imagine games made this way will have intractable bugs with no ability to solve them in an economic way. No way to add features without fucking up other things. It just sounds like a nightmare to maintain.
