That moment you are so sarcastic everyone think you’re 1st degree…

That was supposed to be a joke.

Some friends had the ti89. It has basically the same features. The ti92/V200 screens are larger, and have a full qwerty keyboard which make them much user firendly, but as I remember, firmware were similar.

Yep, that one. But if you don’t use it everyday, you quickly forgot how it works ;)

I got a V200, the successor of ti92. Best device ever, so much power in that brick. I never found something equivalent on computer, except maybe wolfram alpha.

I’m just sad I never had to really use it in my work. Only time it could have been useful, it was dead 😥.

Especially when thé API is shit

Yep, most of tracks were already available on “various” sources, but this time they directly scraped the whole Spotify database.

It’s really nice from them to backup Spotify database on a distributed system, and for free ! This ensure Spotify business won’t be endanger in case of critical hardware failure.

Gitkraken. Wayyyyy too much fancyness. On website, on blog, on videos, etc… I like fancy software, but it gives me the impression they spend more effort on the marketing than on software.

There is also some stories where they started development in open source using community contribution, and close the source when it became usable and marketable.

Good luck !

I’ve tried 3 time signin to facebook using fake ID, I always ended up ban after a fews days because of “suspicious activities” (probably because of VPN or PiHole). It require a videos selfy to validate I’m not a bot. I tried to create one using genAI but it didn’t worked.

Moved from github to gitlab when it was acquired by Microsoft. Moved from gitlab to codeberg last month because I don’t need a behemoth with dozens of services I never use to store my 3 shitty code files.

Use waifuAI to upscale my old p0rn collection sleeping deep inside that odly named directory for 20 years and think about the good old time of emule and razorback.

Good book to read BTW. Explain lots of organizational issues we have today.

Marketing also request for a kitten.

Yet another package manager…

apt for life !

In the early 2ks, computer were ugly grey box with noisy fan and a hard drive that gave the impression a cockroach colony were trying to escape your case. I wanted to build a silent computer to watch Divx movies from my bed, but as a broke teen, I just had access to disposed hardwares I could find there and there.

I dismantled a power supply, stuck mosfets to big mother fucking dissipator, and I had a silent power supply. I put another huge industrial dissipator on CPU (think it was an AMD k6 500Mhz) and had fanless cooling. Remained the hard drive.

Live CD/USB weren’t common at that time. I’ve discovered a live CD distrib (I think it was Knoppix) that could run entirely from RAM.

I removed hard drive, boot on live distrib, then replace CD by my Divx and voila.

Having a fanless-harddriveless computer was pure science fiction for me and my friends at that time.

Meshroom is FOSS, relatively easy to use and works out of the box. It is industrial quality and is widely used in cinema and untertainment industry. So, I think it’s the go to if you want something robust and usable.

NVidia provide several reasearch software to do Radiance Field stuff on their github: https://github.com/NVlabs. They gives impressive results, but none of them is user friendly. It’s reasearch stuff.

Dunning-Kruger effect.

Lots of people now think they can be developpers because they did a shitty half working game using vibe coding.

Would you trust a surgeon that rely on ChatGPT ? So why sould you trust LLM to develop programs ? You know that airplane, nuclear power plants, and a LOT of critical infrastructure rely on programs, right ?

neovim, because it’s much nicer and user friendly than vim.
