Does the new one look better or something? Or is it just the fact that it’s AI-written that’s getting people excited?

Programming@programming.dev•Software developers are not okay
1·3 days agoI really don’t like the formatting of that article. Every single sentence is a new paragraph. It feels like it’s presenting every sentence as one of utmost importance.
If everything is important nothing is important.
It also makes reading the thing difficult because it’s impossible to filter out the interesting bits.

Matrix@programming.dev•Is it possible to use Matrix purely over Tor?English
1·3 days agoThat seems like quite the hassle. I wouldn’t trust myself trying to host an anonymous service if all of that has to happen.
The link you shared doesn’t mention any of that either. It might actually be putting people at risk who want to host hidden services.

2·3 days agoOnce Motorola releases their phone with GrapheneOS, maybe other vendors might be willing to release phones upon which GrapheneOS can run. But there are alternatives like CalyxOS

3·3 days agoOr don’t take your real phone with you. Memorise a tinyURL that takes you to a place you can restore your original phone contents or even just a password vault, which allows you to reconnect to your important services once you have access to a clean phone again.

Opensource@programming.dev•Fluxer Federation Protocol Announced!
4·7 days agoThank you. Federation with matrix would be great. But it looks like they’re using re-invention of federation. Dunno what to think about that.

Programming@programming.dev•Rust and the price of ignoring theory - James FaureEnglish
7·9 days agoThe C++ takedown video was amazing, this video seems like it was made by a person who couldn’t gather their thoughts and just goes off on tangents. Is there a problem with the rust memory model? Is borrowing theoretically incorrect? What actually is the purported problem? I guess we won’t know until they make a new structured video.

Privacy@programming.dev•Leonardo’s SignalTrace report by @BessByers from @reason
2·10 days agoUnencrypted iot. They will never learn. Or maybe it’s on purpose.
Yeah, I think calling out the demise of opensource is too early as there isn’t enough data to support such a position.
😩 If you want to be absurdly narrow minded and treat OSI like some deity, their word like a holy book, and anything outside of that scripture or benediction as heresy, then maybe you’ll see the arrival of AI as some kind of ragnarok.
Opensource will change but it won’t be “killed”. You can’t and won’t stop people putting the code for their projects online. The stuff you (or your agent or whatever) publish will continue to be used as an open portfolio.
A good amount of stuff published will be filth and indistinguishable from clonker filth or human filth. Additionally, local AI will also become more common. Making your code indistinguishable will also make the “AI code is unlicensable” argument worthless. Go prove that the trash heap I published was written while drunk and high or by an AI.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Perfectly cloning the Microsoft Teams experience
18·11 days agoI found element quite alright compared to teams, honestly. I wish the EU actually invested money in matrix to make it better instead of just using the base and building a bunch of stuff on top of it.
