Yeah that's cause they're using ancient systems that probably store the password in plaintext. If you absolutely must use it make sure that password is only used on that specific site. I would strongly recommend looking for other ways before you do though.

Well you know for sure you have a cat

I think you have summed up why I don't like these posts. I get why they're popular, but being a person in the field of programming I understand the principle of garbage in garbage out. I think I just needed a place to vent a bit with my frustrations of AI for a bit.

Would keep going unless you stopped him, no shame? Is this my oldest cat with different fur?

If it's a package I'm not familiar with and is relatively small/unknown then I'll give it a brief once over to see if there's anything that sticks out (obfuscated code, making http requests when the package should never do that, etc.). Most of the time though it is just trusting the FOSS community.

Can't believe they're making the smart pipe a reality https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=DJklHwoYgBQ

And remember people when you see a story about an AI talking shit on it's creator it's not news worthy. It's just people getting math to give the outputs they want.

Do you have a source for this map?

This fool doesn't know that jet fuel can't melt steel beams. Edit: apparently I needed this /s

Which is why people are so hostile to genAI code. It may work now, but it's not built to be maintained and usually has some glaring issues that lay people will not notice.

Have fun dealing with all the fun that comes with !important overriding styles and making you css a nightmare to maintain. AI may have gotten it to work, but it's using some horrible practices when it comes to CSS. !important should only be used in very limited case (example a utility class that makes an element hidden and does nothing else). I would also recommend moving those color values into CSS variables to make it easier to modify it (assuming you want a consistent color scheme). My German is mittelmäßig so I can't confidently translate this for you (I assume German is your first language due to the comments).

I like it without a total count. I'm not worried if something I say gets heavily down voted (and usually it deserves it if it does happen). Plus you don't get try hards who only care about making that number go up, and are just posting everywhere in pursuit of that goal rather than cause they thought it was worth posting.

 

It's been ages since I've really done some deal hunting online with how ubiquitious Amazon is I've realized I'm not up to date with the current ecosystem for finding trustworthy online storefronts. Do you have any sources/tips for finding good quality products (especially with all the AI slop that exists nowadays)?

 

Always the first thing I turn off, but surely there are some people out there that actually like it. If you're one of those people is there a particular reason?

Feeling like I'm spending too much time doing nothing, and I know the mobile app for Lemmy on my phone is a huge part of this. Has anyone else tried removing Lemmy apps from their phone to cut down? Any unexpected consequences you have noticed?

 

I really want to be able to enjoy myself regardless of how drunk I am, but I do like the variety of flavors when it comes to drinks. Do you guys have any suggestions for NA/low alcohol drinks?
