I’d still keep it. Even though it doesn’t appear to be a more rare CPU (like, a 5950X or similar). Might become worth a little bit in a few years.

…no, definitely not.
This thread gets dangerously close to r34 territory, and I do not know if I like that.

And switch cases (called match cases) are there as well.
I use lambdas all the time to shovel GTK signal emitions from worker threads into GLib.idle_add in a single line, works as you’d expect.
Previous commenters probably didn’t look at Python in a really long time.
Deployment of Nepenthes and also Anubis (both described as “the nuclear option”) are not hate. It’s self-defense against pure selfish evil, projects are being sucked dry and some like ScummVM could only freakin’ survive thanks to these tools.
Those AI companies and data scrapers/broker companies shall perish, and whoever wrote this headline at arstechnica shall step on Lego each morning for the next 6 months.
Natanox@discuss.tchncs.deto World News@lemmy.ml•European leaders tell Putin to agree to unconditional ceasefire by Monday or face ‘massive’ sanctionsEnglish3·1 month agoIt’s being held up artificially right now through unsustainable means. The Russian economy is massively under pressure pushing it towards a downwards spiral and got problems sourcing material, which is what those sanctions intended.

It’s pretty clear you never looked into it. The Russian economy is massively strained, they got huge problems due to those sanctions.
Bet he was the goodest of bois
Parts of me want to argue that “experienced devs” can’t seriously still ask ChatGPT for syntax correction. Like, I do that with Codestral as I’m learning Python (despite the occasional errors it’s still so much better than abstract docs…), but that should just be a learning thing… or is it because nowadays a single codebase often consists of 5+ languages and devs are expected to constantly learn all the new “hot shit” which obviously won’t make anyone experts in one specific one like back when the there just weren’t as many?
No wonder there are some older developers who defend Lisp so passionately. Sounds like a dream to work with once you got the hang of it.

Natanox@discuss.tchncs.deto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•certificate_of_quality.pngEnglish12·2 months agoInteresting moral question here:
Given the huge problems are power consumption, morals behind training data and blind trust in AI slop, do you think there is a window of acceptable usage for LLMs as locally run (on existing hardware) coding assistant (not executive tool that does it for you) to help with work on FOSS projects (giving back to where it has taken from) with no money flowing to any company (therefore not bolstering that commercial ecosystem)? While this obviously doesn’t address the energy consumption during training, it may alleviates moral issues to the point people start to think about it as acceptable tool.
To make it abundantly clear, this is neither about “vibe coding” where it does code for you badly, and definitely not about any other bullshit like generative “art”. It’s about the question of humble, educated use of a potential useful tool in a way it might be morally acceptable.

Natanox@discuss.tchncs.deto Gaming@beehaw.org•Discord confirms it's moving toward 'becoming a public company' as it hires a former Activision executive as its new CEOEnglish3·2 months agoIs this a joke? Even if you ignore the overly fancy stuff like those Forum-like features Matrix can hardly do the basics correctly. The encryption constantly causes issues, Voice feature is still beta, the UX is a mess, the UI is lackluster, basic features are missing (you can’t even set the Voice Activation level, wtf), there are no integrated admin tools and the third-party UIs are either wonky or lackluster, the software (both server and client) is a bloated mess that takes aeons to do anything and is awful to develop (a friend looked at it and quickly decided it’s not worth all the hassle)…
Of course there’s a difference in size, still they could’ve figured things out way better in the last decade. People ask for voice channels since 2017, and not just did they have a working Jitsi integration, there also are WebRTC frameworks ready to use they could’ve picked. And even now with that Beta feature it is more than obvious they do not want it to work as simple as Discord, but more like a professional software for meetings (that or they just really love creating convoluted UI).
There’s no way to get any majority of Discord users to use this mess. We discussed this once in our local hackerspace, and while the general opinion of course was more complex given some people know how complicated the protocol is, there also was a consensus that the software as it is is “not great to use”. And if even hackers / enthusiasts are saying this there’s no way in hell to convince casual users.
More rare than an i5-8600 and probably becomes rather rare as time moves on.
