The Situation

Reply in thread

Yep. In germany you might get sued for telling a company "hey your security might endanger peoples data".

Then again, you might get lawyers sent after you for daring to rate a restaurant low here. We take our ability to perform badly but still feel very proud very seriously here.

Was any of this right here correct ? Oh I dunno.

Linus Torvalds Spent Years Dismissing AI, Only to Vouch for It

For aiding programming it beats stackoverflow (thank goldness I dislike SO ...)

But be prepared for it to lie, make stuff up, loose context etc. AI works best if you show it the way. Hold its hand and lead it to where it should go.

Otherwise it'll cry in the corner talking to itself.

Also it cannot create real new data, only glue old datasets together with pva

American-style tipping system is gaining ground in the Netherlands

Reply in thread

US and other countries see tipping as wwy to pay their employees even less. It's kind of a "well just perfom well and get the rest in tips"

A social worker once told me something similar à "you can support yourself with tips ! Be nice to customers, extra nice. Even nicer than ever."

I needed to take a shower after getting home that day. This is a ridiculous concept..

Imagine you go eating at a restaurant, and the waitress is extra nice to you cause her livelyhood depends on it.................. All while being stressed from serving, remembering orders and having to keep the place running, all whill big CEO is sitting somewhere counting all the cash made by doing nothing. Not fun.

Selfhosting payment processing

Saame. Altho just regular webhosting for me

Mine just disabled all domains as their antivir found a """potential backdoor php""" - thats what they claimed* (just a php page parser)

=> just a cute "login to user 401" error on all domains. Why bother quarantining a single file if you can disable a customers entire webspace

Ordered a "Dell Wyse 5070 Thin Client Mini PC Server J5005 Celeron J4105 8gbRAM 64 gb SSD" and will selfhost my sites now...

Flip dependency.

Self host Akkoma. Selfhost Websites. Hack your router. Done.

What a weird world we live in.

That leaves domains. Can't self host those

*their ""antivir"" claimed lots of things .. its hilarious

Maybe this can help you ? https://github.com/juspay/hyperswitch

Dopamine fix

"Fu I forgot to doomscroll this morning"

No wonder noone can hold conversations anymore "Uh huh" "yeah?" "Really"

They should've made him use his phone too. Then it would be accurate
