Technology@lemmy.world•AI is making me paranoid about contributionsEnglish
2·1 day agoI wish meshtastic did any of that. Its more like a worse pager. Fun hobby to get into but its not all that great at reliable packets.

Technology@lemmy.world•AI is making me paranoid about contributionsEnglish
3·1 day agoI have some friends that are thinking of investing into some HiLow systems and making our own intranet. Or a meshnet. Seems like a fun project.
And no random bot scans, no agencies, no nothing but our own sites.
Windows has better accessability features than linux does. Itsn ot talked about much but ive been in meetings with people with disabilities, survivors of accidents, etc… and Windows is the only real option. If you are blind there are standard programs that they use.
Its the one area i think linux could use real work. A couple of places ive put in pull requests to help out from time to time.
Otherwise linux is generally better ;)

Programming@programming.dev•Is there any use in learning an "easy" programming language?English
4·3 days agoYep the thing is to learn at least one, then its VERY easy to jump into another (usually). The simple things such as loops, functions, classes, etc…etc… are all about the same nowadays. Its more about what you are trying to do rather than the language you find yourself using.
If I had to do it again, I would try out either python (for a on computer solution), javascript for web stuff, or C/C++ if you want to go crazy and learn low level stuff. Go/Rust is fine too. Any language is ok really. Just try it out and see what you like!

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•This community isn't your personal adviserEnglish
3·4 days agoI wonder if someone is trying out an AI or something and seeing the results. Then deleting. More evidence will pop up eventually.

22·4 days agoIt sticks around in other software just FYI. Maybe lemmy should have something that admins can do? Maybe something super admins can re-instate if a mod states should be un-deleted? I dunno.

Linux@programming.dev•Swap space on Nvidia VRAM, in case you bought a 5090 and now can't afford RAMEnglish
7·7 days agoI remember getting puppy linux to work ONLY on RAM. Crazy times we are in when DDR3 is going up in price. I have that in my decade+ old computer.

5·7 days agoThis reminds me of bitcoin so much. At first there was a rush for cpu then gpu then specific miners. Then specialty hardware. We are here now. So silly.

Technology@lemmy.world•Dumb Ways for an Open Source Project to DieEnglish
12·9 days agoIve seen this many MANY times. But I think people forget that most open source are passion projects.
You are owed nothing at all when someone publishes their code on the internet. Thats what it is, its just an instruction manual to do a thing. Unless you pay something for the privilege of support, complaints will do next to nothing. Even now on lemmy/piefed/fedi.
Ive played around with a couple, mostly from hugging face. Some of the minimal modelsvare halfway decent at SQL and some specific ones are good with templates and html. You cam string them up for agentic work without issue. I found the performance worse than generation tools for the same software tasks. It was neat to try though.
