I ran mine like this for years. Then a few weeks ago I installed Immich so we can browse photos directly from the NAS on our phone. That’s how it will stay. I don’t want it to turn into an application server.

Yes, this also explains why right-wingers always accuse others of “virtue signalling” when they try to do something helpful.

Better get on it quickly, becuase RFK just appointed a new CDC vaccine committee full of antivax idiots, after firing everyone who understood anything.

I’ve seen a lot of posts on Lemmy today arguing that Greta Thunberg is privileged, self-obsessed or self-promoting, that her actions are merely symbolic and useless, etc. I have to wonder whether these are part of a coordinated campaign. I hope we can all recognize someone who cares enough to put themselves in danger for the sake of others.

Yeah, and this particular vulnerability is pretty obvious for even a moderately experienced developer. You’d really have to be pasting without thinking to let this one slip by.

That’s the point though: LLMs recycle junk information, including some potentially dangerous information, without any indication of the context. In a regular search of the web or of Stack Overflow, you’d probably see people commenting on how the code is vulnerable, but when you ask an LLM it doesn’t necessarily communicate that while still delivering the code.

What a horrible thing to do to Linux.

I use a Windows XP computer (for distraction-free writing using old DOS word processors) and a bunch of Linux and Windows 11 PCs. Being in contact with XP regularly, I don’t experience any desire to go back to doing things like that. It’s really rough compared to modern Linux.

Rust’s compiler is more picky than most, but is really impressive in how it explains the errors and advises on how to fix them. It’s a really good feature of Rust.

If you read the whole thread, it turns out to be an undesirable behaviour of a tool called b4, which was rewriting not just author information but committer information. The consensus seems to be that this tool needs to be updated not to do that.

It usually works, but it takes a few minutes to reprocess the files if your project or solution is big.

In the JetBrains IDEs (which, relatively speaking, I like), I have to use “Invalidate caches and restart” several times a day just to get past all the incorrect error highlighting.

You should refer to Visual Studio by its full title: “Visual Studio (not responding)”.

Hmm, if only Americans were capable of joining the dots between the issues they care about and the politicians they vote for.

For personal use? I never do anything that would qualify as “auditing” the code. I might glance at it, but mostly out of curiosity. If I’m contributing then I’ll get to know the code as much as is needed for the thing I’m contributing, but still far from a proper audit. I think the idea that the open-source community is keeping a close eye on each other’s code is a bit of a myth. No one has the time, unless someone has the money to pay for an audit.

I don’t know whether corporations audit the open-source code they use, but in my experience it would be pretty hard to convince the typical executive that this is something worth investing in, like cybersecurity in general. They’d rather wait until disaster strikes then pay more.

Microsoft always has 20 variants of the same name for maximal confusion. It’s deep in their culture.

The company now operates in 12 countries and employs around 20 people.

That sounds like hard work.

Obsidian’s only downside is that it’s closed source, but this is a big downside for some people.

Yes, Joplin achieves everything this proposal does and more.
