My brain has had this idea and it keeps floating around... So I might as well publish it and see where it leads too.
So the idea is. I've been working professionally as a software developer for about 10 years now. Not professionally, way longer. When I started out, I would have killed for the opportunity to talk about code with someone that has more experience then me.
Since gitui does not allow commit signing at the moment I can't use it. Tig feels fine with the customization but lazygit is more appealing in my opinion. Both feel really good. What do you use, any recommendations?
#askfedi I want to run my own website essentially just a place I can write things. Something that looks like fosstodon.org is fine basic and to the point. How should I go about it? I used WordPress but after all this AI bullshit I don't want to use it again plus I'd like to keep costs to a minimum.#webdev#developer#css#html
Today's lesson is if I wake up in the middle of the night thinking "I should refactor that big ugly block of working code" I should just get rudely drunk and go back to sleep.
Instead of requesting new YouTube videos from a channel by searching the channel for videos sorted by date, I retrieve the "uploads" playlist id and THEN get the newest video in that playlist. The first approach ate 101 Google API quota, the new approach only 3, with the same result xD I increased the amount of API requests I can do by 3000% by choosing a slightly different approach c: (It's for my discord bot) #coding#developer#python#google#api#programming#development#cloud#youtube
When I was a young Commodore-era game developer, C (without the ++ or # back then) was for wimps, and hardcore coders used Assembly, ditching the OS to have maximum available hardware resources. 👴
@ramsey@tim@chris I'm a #PHP#developer and agency founder whose never been forced to build on wordpress to get work. PHP isn't going anywhere and IMO isn't in any danger of impact from a mass exodus from Wordpress.
There's this odd bubble with WP where if you're inside of it, things seem to revolve around it.
Other strong options include Craft CMS, Laravel Projects, Statamic, Kirby, October, ... I've never heard of Ghost til this thread.
I'm not sure if it's right to ask you #gtk4 / #libadwaita#developer (s) this question here on Mastodon. But the dev of Text Pieces, a little tool that I use daily, has apparently gotten fed up with GTK4 and libadwaita and has no motivation to continue his work on the app. Maybe someone out there might be interested in taking over or at least helping out?
