Using A.I. to DESTROY Minesweeper [16:38] | Code Bullet in c/programmer_humor@programming.dev

Sure, but it wasn't really possible to code the stuff they wanted to at that time.

Does our brain follow manually coded instructions?

You probably had no idea the field even exists two years ago

MFW was using it ten years ago.

"AI" has existed since the 70s in terms of computing. In terms of the theory, much further back.

What version control software do you use? in c/godot@programming.dev

The number of manipulative, disinformation posts on lemmy is too damn high in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world

Nope. After 2010s proved that the internet is the central location for political battles with Wikipedia Blackouts causing major political shifts, Pandoras Box has been opened.

The internet is now the premier location for propaganda and politicalization.

This is only true if people feed the monster.

Gen AI writes posts that can use specific dialects, that you would never be certain/realise. Hence the whole people-thinking-it's-the-thoughts-of-a-real-person-and-peer-pressure manipulation aspect.

If Gen AI algorithms are having difficulty with it also being used as training data due to the large amounts of it around, you can bet that you've read at least a few posts / comments each day written by gen AI.

I think you're missing the point of the post. Or maybe the personal insult is the action of a bot to encourage other personal insults against me as a form of manipulation of others to build a group against me?

Does Mozilla sell or share user information with partners such as Google: Is there a definitive yes or no answer now? (programming.dev)

I haven't kept up with all the news about this, so is there a definitive yes or no answer that Mozilla sells or even shares user information with partners such as Google? Google is paying Mozilla for something.

Any recommendations for UK IONOS hosting? (programming.dev)

I'm in the UK and looking to switch over to a UK host provider. Can anyone recommend IONOS for the uk? I'm considering a fairly low-spec VPS. Even with VAT, their prices will be about 3/4 of what I'm currently paying.

Can anyone recommend decent UK hosting, VPS. 2 GB RAM, single core will be fine 30+GB storage, and PCI-DSS compliant for future business needs. Free backups would be a bonus!

Kinesis Advantage (programming.dev)
 

Yes, it's expensive. Yes, it looks weird, yes they've spent millions on researching optimum keyboard layout to reduce RSI, but my goodness, once you get over the 'eugh' of using it from muscle memory, I can guarantee it will be worth the cost. I love mine and there's a huge hacker community for it who modify it further.

Why do so many split keyboards not have "F" keys? (programming.dev)
 

Undoubtedly, programmers are a major user of keyboards, and IDE developers love function keys for esoteric shortcuts for debugging, moving around, and running code. So why do so many split keyboards not actually have the function keys.

I think makers are missing out a huge audience.

Finding coding gigs nowadays (programming.dev)

Not sure if off-topic, but what's the best way to go about finding coding gigs at the moment? Need some urgent funds so need to reach out to people somehow.

I think of linkedin as a facebook for businesses leading you open to being spammed by agencies, which I don't really want.

Though I have years of experience of coding across many languages and fields (audio, computer vision, e-commerce backends, etc), and github accounts over the years with some pushes to the core of a few major projects, I haven't really kept the accounts, and past projects have nearly always been back-ends for clients so can't exactly add them to a portfolio.

Languages I'm currently using would be python / php (including symfony and laravel), though happy to switch to javascript/html coding, some c/c++ etc, so I'm not tied to one area I guess.

Is there a decent place to advertise or, is there a better way lately? Thanks

Critique This! A Simple Qt Dock Widget which enables the whole widget to be 'folded' to use less screen space (programming.dev)
 

I'm working on a project that needs lots of toolbars on screen at once, even though not all of them will be used at the same time. So, I'm modelling this 'foldable' dock widget after what I remember Photoshop panels used to be like.

It's a work in progress, but would like to hear constructive suggestions.

Is it ok to post code (~250 LOC) for critique here? (programming.dev)
 

Working on a class that I'd like to use in a library (not for work) and think I'd appreciate external opinions!

If not, where else could I post code for critique? Thanks

Go buy a linux book at a charity shop or a library sale! (programming.dev)
 

A great way to learn the basics. It'll be old, but that's ok. It's going to cover all the shell basics and then more. It's still going to be useful, it'll cost you pennies, you'll be able to dip into it when you want, and you'll be giving to a good cause.
