It was a simple movie with a simple story and pretty pictures. Last but not least the costumes were made with Jean-Paul Gaultier (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Paul_Gaultier).

Sometimes it works, it's fun, and that's why it's one of those movies that I still watch once a year with a bag of pop-corn.

LibreWolf on a shitty computer. 3D games were way faster in the 80s with a few MHz, I wonder what went wrong.

The very concept of lurking more is a thing of the past sadly. It would solve so many problems.

I only had one good manager once in my life. He was our cheerleader when we were late developing features (not our fault), he was handling everything unrelated to coding and all we had to do was work, and he was protecting us from the upper levels with their useless concerns and demands.

All the other managers I ever had were toxic assholes who would have cheerfully took Hitler's job if it meant a salary raise for them.

It's only a sample of one but I'm really unhappy with the issues and limitations that JSON and YAML have, and I welcome XML if it has good tools.

Beta waitlist. Book uploads: 4/month for $12/month, that's low. Do you remove the DRM on AZW3?

People are celebrating security holes controlled by a black box in another country, and they still have the guts to call it "open-source." Have fun though if you like it.

The best programmer in South Korea should not limit himself to vibe-coding todo lists in TypeScript. Feel free to discover other languages!

Law and finance are regulated industries, it's not gatekeeping.

> programming is an open field

Absolutely not. Some coding jobs are regulated too like medical devices, defense, or finance. It's the law because you have specific responsibilities that can have a lot of bad consequences. Feel free to do something else if you don't want to respect that. I don't want to have dead people around me because you have a grudge against lawyers whatever they did to you.

Once again, the downfall of SWE continues. What you call "brittle test scripts" should be an important part of the specifications, and those flaky tests should teach you something that you purposefully ignored by using a random test generator.

I have a very negative feeling about the future of programming if that trend continues and spreads.

No code at all, and spending money for an invalid HTML file that could have been done in a few minutes by copying text in a Markdown file and generating the same web page. I'm not sure what we should celebrate here.

Can someone tell why there seems to be a conspiracy to remove developers out of the loop? It's always focused on devs as if we were some kind of bad gatekeepers who were hiding behind the big bad programming languages as if it was an arcane knowledge that couldn't be learned? It's creepy and always comes from vibe people who have something to sell.

It's a great addition to vibe coding: people who can't code and don't want to learn can now write commit messages they won't understand. Do we really need LLMs and AI slop to write a few sentences now? What's next? LLMs to move the cursor of your mouse because it's too hard?

Also this in the first file that I randomly opened: `file_location = f"/tmp/{audio_file.filename}"`. I hope that's a joke?
