This. This was such a charming game series.

This is such a fun class!

This makes me happy. I wouldn’t have a career if it weren’t for Django.

Not even with a different stack?

Everyone's career started somewhere, and Django has been launching careers for 20 years now.

Perhaps. But there was a confluence of things that naturally fit with Django (and Python) that worked well for me.

I just came to say this. I think it means one must setup an account and login to see project details? But that sounds like a lot.

I even set up an account. But the confirmation link in the email is broken

It makes me think the projects arent organic but placeholders, because how are people posting projects without accounts? I would love if the account creation process was fixed so people could post interesting side projects i could browse through

ah! darn it! i think my partner right now just tried to make the "confirmation email" feature so thats fresh of the press and probably doesnt work yet. sorry!

You cant post project without account, so the ones that are there were made before we now tried to fix the email confirmation stuff. we are on it!

I mean this in all honesty, not snark: did you partner not actually test that feature before pushing it live?

Id give them a pass. Non professional development is already hard as is

If the problem we have with modern professionally developed software is that its become soulless and treats its users like resources to exploit rather than partners to work with, in exchange for dangling polish and convenience in front of their faces, then the alternative is this: hobby devs who sometimes mess up and rely on community feedback

I think this is healthy

To be fair, having worked on this stuff, it can be difficult to test features like email confirmation separately from prod. (Obviously in a big commercial environment you have all the infrastructure for that, but you don't necessarily have that here.)

:D

Dont know, didnt talk to him when he was doing that. We're just two guys trying to make something cool that can change the world! But yeah, on the road to that we should test as well

I like how, in this context, k8s is considered the raw metal thing. :)

The assumption is that you can always install k8s on bare metal, if cloud providers aren't good anymore

I understand this in theory but this is so much accidental complexity in running some standard web service.

So much text and so little actual information.

> This past week at RubyKaigi in Ehime, Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto, the creator of the Ruby programming language, gave a presentation on “Programming Language for AI Age”. In the keynote presentation, he discussed how Ruby can dominate in the AI age, due to its conciseness, expressiveness, and extensible nature with DSLs.

The talk isn't available online yet, but I'm excited to see what he has to say.

Ruby has AI libraries.

Also a reminder that all the heavy lifting in the AI ecosystem is done by C++ libraries, and Ruby has a great FFI for interfacing with C++. Also most app makers are just interfacing with web APIs anyway. Either way, you're covered.

I’m really happy with my MacPorts.

Claude is my favourite.

I read this as “Failure of Theory for Material Science and Engineering” and had to laugh.

So much of this field involves experimentation and heuristics. As real life is really complicated to model.
