This is something I always had in my mind: sign at photo taken, at least you know it comes from a phone and it's not AI generated

CC with Jetbrain's IDE MCPs. get rid of those greps, seds, awks, heads and tails!

I have been having huge success with CC and HTMX+Go. Not even tailwind. It made me never want to touch React again; it eased my way into the simpler stuff.

I remember doing this at uni, networking labs

They seem to be a top brand in sailing for now, still. But they did move to a subscription for their Navionics charts.

Oh my GOSH (GoSqliteHtmx) stack.

Bluetooth + phone mounted next to the wheel worked nicely (and still does in older models). I wish I had this option still. Better, AUX instead of Bluetooth. It would be so fast to plug&play...

All coastal zones are. Mallorca is the same, for example. Eivissa as well. Many parts of València, etc. And that's just the ones I know.

> for the people saying things like “I’m a PhD from xyz uni and I’m telling your LLMs are just stochastic tools that make everything up and the world will fall apart if you use them”, I’m here to tell you that you are out of date. The world of software engineering has changed dramatically in the last few months.

It indeed has. I now review code written by machines that sucks the life of me, read reports written by a machine, and overall have a miserable life as a software engineer. The pay is good so I'll keep on it for the time being, but you are damn right it changed, for the worse.

You are right, until you are to review PRs at work that you know were 100% generated by AI.

I don't use Spotify. Will people that do and are fans of the same bands have priority over me?

This feels like reinventing Tailwind, but worse.

New comment by icar in "Turtle WoW classic server announces shutdown after Blizzard wins injunction"

icar — Mon, 20 Apr 2026 10:29:01 +0000

I know I will be flagged, and it doesn't add anything of value to the conversation, but: From every single private server WoW player out there, a sincerely Fuck You Blizzard is in place. This sentiment is shared among all of us, and it's been there for decades. Keep shutting us down, more will come.

icar — Mon, 20 Apr 2026 10:16:15 +0000

I wish Adobe adopted Jetbrain's model. You pay for a version of the software. You then keep it forever. Then offer additional stuff like using their AI or some cloud save stuff.

It changes permissions nicely and it's nice for my Fedora NAS Jellyfin Torrent server management. It comes preinstalled. Everything that I listed would make the software better.

Instead of spreading FUD about a protocol, one could stay in X11. If you don't need fractional scaling, HiDPI, real multi monitor support, mixed refresh rates, HDR, VRR, no tearing, and trust all your apps to not keylog everything, you can keep using any XOrg DE.
