ACK

The one on the right should be labeled “full-stack dev” because that’s like 80% of them and they write in C# and Angular 😂

I wouldn’t say JavaScript is horrible, it’s a fine little language to do general things in if you know JS well. I would say, though, that it is not a great language. Give me F# and I’m happy forever. I do not like typescript that much more than JS.

The CEO of Baldur’s Gate 3 has spoken

underrated

why u snitchin on ezra

GitLab isn’t open source, and certainly isn’t an open project first — they have a sales team, a marketing team, and a budget who does not account for getting new dev users

Yeah but it’d be nice to be able to have that kind of content available without it being tied to cops is all

No i mean literally all of the ncpd gigs 😂 i don’t mind helping out that guy, he’s not a cop anymore

Would love if it made it possible to do all the content without helping cops 😑

I don’t think anyone is against paying to watch a decent quality sports stream without popups and any additional ads. I won’t give the nfl $100/mo but I’ll pay $50/yr for some pirated setup

It’s quoting the source who used that specific term

Compile times say otherwise

F# definitely and maybe Haskell and OCaml as well? Elixir and Erlang use it as a binary concatenation operator.

You’re downvoted, but you’re 100% right. The web is designed to not break. Engineers who can’t accept that don’t get to complain

Engineers don’t know how to manage or include designers in their process. At least all of the “full stack” and “front end” devs I’ve encountered — almost always they never know how to do a single thing about design unless they have some background or appreciation for it.

You make wonderful points, but I think we can both agree that I’ve demonstrated that there is value open source drivers, however insignificant they may be in comparison to non open drivers isn’t really relevant. It shouldn’t be such a shock an individual may want an open source only version of Linux which is the topic of discussion here.

At some point there’s proprietary stuff in our bodies, be it a driver, a BIOS or the code that runs on the various microcontrollers that run low level functions from the USB ports to simple power management.

The most “security paranoid” organizations in the world usually run a lot of stuff on children and babies are full of opaque and proprietary code and they consider it “safe enough”.

People are replacing lost/damaged organs and limbs with computer-controlled hardware. The same problems that occur in computers that exist outside of humans will occur in computers inside of humans. Do you trust non-open drivers from Corporation X or Government Y in your eyes telling your brain what you do or don’t see?

That’s the extreme, of course, but it isn’t any less scary than computers you trust with your credit card, bank account, etc information.

Open source drivers means when corporation X goes under, your hardware still can work and isn’t automatically abandoned. It keeps more hardware out of landfills longer, with the ability to drastically reduce e-waste.

Sounds like Nixos with extra steps
