Oh man, I hear you. Actually I'm a slob, I don't just have a grinder, it's one of those all-in-one filter coffee machines. Every morning at 6.30 there's that grinding noise and a few mins later the smell drifts in. I don't wanna get up but dang it you've made it worth my while, coffee machine, I ain't mad.

This is why I like strong type systems with exhaustivity checks

Whatever happened to dailymotion?

Apparently they can't read their own survey results because DevEx is clearly the highest paid category there but they think it's SRE and cloud

Rancher got a lot better very quickly, but I've never used podman and have heard mixed things about it... Might give it a whirl at some point, but I've been saying that to myself for years

Dunno if it's decent but I've been hosting one service on quay.io since about 2017 and other than that time redhat changed the login system and I had to fart about for a few mins,, I've never had any issues... Tbh though I probably only update that image about twice a year so I'm not exactly power-user-ing it

Might be checking the old password on the new password screen. Easy programming mistake to make I guess? Apply the same validation to all 3 password fields...

Software is really hard. Replacing something that needs to continuously have new features added to it because it's not been replaced yet... You're running to stand still

I think the actual problem is that they won't know when they've got something that compiles but is wrong... I dunno though. I've never seen someone doing this and I can only speculate tbh. I only ever asked ChatGPT a couple of times, as a joke to myself when I got stuck, and it spouted completely useless nonsense both times... Although on one occasion the wrong code it produced looked like it had the pattern of a good idiom behind it and I stole that.

No arguments from me that it's better if people are just better at their job, and I like to think I'm good at mine too, but let's be real - a lot of people are out of their depth and I can imagine it can help there. OTOH is it worth the investment in time (from people who could themselves presumably be doing astonishing things) and carbon energy? Probably not. I appreciate that the tech exists and it needs to, but shoehorning it in everywhere is clearly bollocks. I just don't know yet how people will find it useful and I guess not everyone gets that spending an hour learning to do something that takes 10s when you know how is often better than spending 5 mins making someone or something else do it for you... And TBF to them, they might be right if they only ever do the thing twice.
