The “SDK” for Switch 2 through SmileBASIC is complete slop. It doesn’t say so on the repo, but the non-developer said it is “fully vibecoded” on Twitter. It’s useless garbage.

Bluesky is not a safe space for trans people. Trans people regularly get suspended while transphobic people are protected, labels get removed, moderation lists get hidden. It's not an accident that it keeps happening.

The alleged Switch 2 userland exploit is frustrating. On the one hand, it seems to be real. It’s based on SmileBasic 4. On the other hand, it’s fucking slop. They didn’t even bother to read the code generated and pushed to the repo by an AI chatbot.

I refuse to give them any credit for it, even if it’s a real exploit. Couldn’t even be bothered to read the published code? You didn’t find shit!!!

I completed a migration of all my personal stuff to UpCloud (DNS to Porkbun). I don’t have any services with DigitalOcean anymore.

I really don't like seeing DigitalOcean fund the Omacom Foundation. I've been using them for 10 years now. But migrating would be difficult for a few reasons:

Epic Games: "Programming is hard. So, instead of doing that, we vibe coded a new Epic Games Launcher..." I guess programming is hard when the slop machine has deskilled you.

Xbox is the active boycott target from BDS, not all of Microsoft at the moment. It’s not as easy to drop all of Microsoft, but it is to put pressure on one specific business.

I left X *because* I had a large following. People told me I was the reason they were staying on there, and I didn’t want to be responsible for 100k+ people sticking around for abuse, CSAM, and Nazis. Simple as that

I left x despite having a large following bc I don’t want to make free content for the world’s wealthiest racist. It’s not worth it to me.

Bisecting nixpkgs is hell. It's difficult to automate because it often wants to do a ton of rebuilding that I need to then skip. Yes I would love to build all of Perl and Python please!

This shit is exactly why i stopped caring about decomp and recomp ports. What are we even doing here. There's no point to this if your vibe coded slop is going to be a worse experience than playing an official pc port that already exists or even just using emulation.

They Don't care they just want slop lmao

Today I learned that I should use Python's "importlib.resources" to read files from a package, instead of directly opening the files. This works in cases like running or importing a package from a zip file. This was introduced in 3.7, in 2018.

“If you’re so upset that X uses AI then why are you using Y which also accepts AI code…” Because I often don’t have a choice. I am often limited by time or choices to find a reasonable alternative. That does not mean I think it’s fine that Y uses AI code.

@ihaveahax@furry.engineer reposted

I frequently see "AI" boosters implying that LLMs are simply an innate and superior part of coding now, inescapable, and that literally all programmers agree with them. And, well. That, too, is a form of propaganda

I wrote a little piece about the ongoing battle for the soul of software as a craft, where we've been, and where I hope we're going

I tried MATE’s Wayland session on NixOS but it is unfortunately not usable. The appearance panel and logging out don’t work. I don’t know if this is due to MATE’s implementation or NixOS’s packaging, but I have to try something else.

A few days ago I decided to re-install NixOS Asahi, and give it a larger partition, so I can give it a proper try as a replacement for macOS. I figured this was the perfect time since Golden Gate deleted the boot entry. So far, it’s performing very well on a 2021 MBP with M1 Pro.

Maybe this would change if I ever get around to doing a clean install of macOS. There’s years of garbage that I should just wipe all at once. I have Nix now to help with configuring and installing most software. I just need the time…

It's official: Starbucks is gutting DEI policies company-wide to curry favor with Florida politicians as our union's call for a boycott grows. Vote with your dollar. BOYCOTT STARBUCKS.
