How do you do, fellow FLOSS enjoyer? I laugh at bad memes, write Free Software, occasionally a blog, and I also provide free webhosting for artistic and […] [bridged from https://fosstodon.org/@mpldr on the fediverse by https://fed.brid.gy/ ]

Ich weiß ja nicht was die beruflich so machen aber sehr oft bekomme ich Supporttickets beantwortet, bei denen ich mit „Vielen Dank für die Antwort auf eine Frage die ich nicht gestellt habe“ antworte. (Nein, das sind keine AI-Agents, die den Mist verzapfen)

ネタい方 #皆さんの不穏な作品を見せてください

People often complain "why is this language-learning app teaching me phrases like 'the radishes are scheming' and not 'may I have the bill'? I have a vacation in this country next week!" If you have a vacation in that country next week, google a list of tourist phrases and memorize it by rote […]

@vitalis that #sword seems not to be of the highest quality. What's your expert opinion?

🇩🇪Den EU-finanzierten DNS-Dienst #DNS4EU kann ich nicht empfehlen, weil Zugriffe protokolliert werden - bei "schädlichen Inhalten" sogar mitsamt IP-Adresse […] [Original post on digitalcourage.social]

Devastated by the fact that I have physical form.

What kind of eldritch horror is this? #programming #ifIclosemyeyesIseenoissue Re: https://mastodon.social/@inautilo/114659213722374970

LAPD shot my finger with a rubber bullet, I was wearing motorcycle gloves with padding but no armor in the fingers. Just got out of seeing an orthopedist, the bone is badly fractured and I very nearly had to have the tip amputated. If I had no gloves it would have been gone. Please add padded or […]

["AI" schadenfreude] I am reading the Cursor forums and github issues and this shit is so funny. bug report: cursor can access my .env file even though it's explicitly not allowed to because it also is given arbitrary use of a shell, and it just grep'd my […] [Original post on neuromatch.social]

That moment when you learn that Microsoft's Exchange Online platform doesn't actually have a "reject" action in the admin domain for spam handling. This, despite rejection at SMTP time being the de facto standard for 25+ years, which is coincidentally the time I've been running email systems […]

Hope whoever reads my #shitpost enjoys them #meme

Would anyone be willing to create some sort of logo for MyJobs Quest? I can't pay you, I can send you some stickers if you like, but financially, I'm kind of exhausted at the moment 😢

Does anyone know of an SDK for the #Seek job-search platform #API? I'd like to integrate Seek, Indeed and LinkedIn (for now) in to my #JobHunt application, so applications can be automatically added in a draft state. https://myjobs.quest

The amount of ghosting among employers towards jobseekers is astounding me... I should maybe chart it out a bit. As well as response times. I mean, I have the data, could use it for more.

Living the dream of being powerless. While my partner is in a foreign country, even if I invite her here, I have no way of knowing if the embassy approves. I cant inquire about the status, and I get to walk the tightrope of not being too honest because that would decrease the likelihood of […]

Made my day!

@jwildeboer's recent thread about his CA co-op idea inspired me to write down some thoughts on email encryption. https://weddige.eu/en/articles/lets-encrypt-emails/ #email #SMIME

Types of codebases my customers send me: - Enterprise javabean factory factory... on a SIM card - C# programmer retasked to write an authenticated bootloader in C for an arm platform with no training - Beautiful well-written, easy-to-read C by an experienced systems programmer, with one […]

Sorry not sorry

Folks, when an Open Source project is overwhelmed by license compatibility and their effects, don't boost a post that accuses them of intentional cruelty — unless you've got very strong evidence to back that up. I've seen those questions drag down lawyers and experts for WEEKS. This isn't easy […]

AI is a horrible tool in software development. A team leader explains the problems in this post on Reddit: "AI Slop PR's are burning me and my team out hard" https://www.reddit.com/r/ExperiencedDevs/s/MeNimUXpsy

This comrade can write, well and funnily, and make excellent points to boot. Worth your 11 minutes, say I. The Copilot Delusion https://deplet.ing/the-copilot-delusion/ #Writing #Programming #SWE #CoPilot

fyi all you tech bros salivating over some kind of "ai assistant" that's intelligent enough to understand you and act on your desires, but for some reason doesn't need to be treated with respect or be given any sort of compensation at all... hate to break it to you but you're reinventing […]

The French may have given the U.S. the Statue of Liberty but only the descendants of President Grover Cleveland are allowed to turn it on and walk around Manhattan in it.

Widely covered MIT paper saying AI boosts worker productivity is, in fact, complete bullshit it turns out. https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/mit-says-it-no-longer-stands-behind-students-ai-research-paper-11434092?st=sF3Wvo&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink
