  • I understand the convenience, but I don't like it. All my data is on someone else's computer, and I have to enable activity trackers for the privilege of accessing my data? Heck nah.

  • Zoomers & Boomers are the same
  • Personally I'd blame parents more than the schools, especially in America. Parent involvement is nearing all-time lows and it seems a lot of them are expecting all learning to be done outside the home. I learned more about computers from my dad than any class or teacher.

  • Voyager feels like Apollo for Reddit
  • Christian didn't seem super pumped about the tribute imo, which is a shame

  • The State of PHP 2024 – JetBrains Blog
  • TL;DR:

    • State of PHP 2024: Insights from a survey of 2,660 PHP developers worldwide.
    • Demographics: Predominantly mid-career developers, with a significant portion from Japan, China, and the US.
    • Gender Imbalance: Majority male respondents; minimal female and non-binary representation.
    • PHP Versions: 86% using PHP 8, lower adoption compared to PHP 7 in 2020.
    • Popular Frameworks: Laravel remains the most popular PHP framework.
    • Development Tools: PhpStorm is the leading IDE, with VS Code gaining popularity, especially among beginners.
    • AI Adoption: ChatGPT and GitHub Copilot are the most used AI tools among PHP developers.
    • PHP Foundation: Focus on improving the language, security, and maintenance, with new features and tools introduced in 2024.
  • Your explanation of federation that it "works like email" will be misunderstood
  • Exactly this. The second you utter the word "federation" you can see people's eyes glaze over in real time. The email explainer is good but it really needs to be a short sentence and that's it

    On community moderator Xananax

    We strongly condemn the harmful language used by Xananax, moderator of an unofficial Godot-related Discord server. We want to clarify that Xananax is not hired by nor a spokesperson for the Godot Foundation. As an organization, we have our own official Discord server, moderated together with new volunteers vetted by our team.

    In all seriousness this is great for end users and devs alike, another reason I like the Proton suite of tools

  • Social Media | PEARLS BEFORE SWINE
  • Thanks for sharing, this looks like a really cool tool to use

  • TIL about the 2018 Samsung fat-finger error, in which an employee of Samsung Securities mistakenly distributed shares worth US$100 billion to employees.
  • Sorry about that, the wayback machine didn't have a version without the paywall unfortunately :/

    Microsoft is creating new capabilities that will let security vendors operate outside of the root of Windows operating systems.

Out of curiosity, how did you determine system specs for your game? I have a 2D SHMUP that I'm writing and was trying to find a solid answer online, and it seems it ranges from "take a wild guess" to "hope you like excel spreadsheets" lol.

    Sengled wifi lightbulbs not keeping color settings?

    Hey all, hoping I can gain some insight into an issue I'm having with my sengled lightbulbs. Basically I have two scenes set up in HAS, one "default" scene that has all the lights at 100% brightness with soft white and another that is for movies that turns off all the light except two and modifies the color value to be a more orange, and lower brightness.

    My issue is when trying to set the default scene, the color values of my pair of lights don't seem to keep the color temperature. The color picker will immediately clear any value I set after 2 seconds, and go back to the previous scene's brightness and color. I can usually go into the sengled app to reset the color to what I want but this is far from ideal.

    It's important to note that I'm using the unofficial sengled api addon from HACS and I am not using the zigbee versions of the lightbulbs (I don't have a zigbee-compatible usb stick yet).

    Is this an api limitation or something else I'm missing? Would the zigbee versions work better than the WiFi ones? My router is practically right next to the light bulbs so I doubt that's the issue.
