How to introduce a 12yo to photography?
  • Get her a polaroid snap touch, or it's recent reskin, the Kodak step touch. It is a printable camera that can print sticker photos of 2x3, but you can choose which photos to print instead of wasting photo paper. Seeing her photos on a physical medium would help her feel like she's creating something tangible, and you can buy her an Instax photo album to hold her best 2x3 photos. Additionally, she can take photos of her friends and give them copies, so it could make her cool among her friends and give her more reason to take photos. It's what I'm doing with my 9yo, and it seems to be starting to go well.

    Finally, Podman has a Docker Compose alternative

    Would this be useful if I wanted to setup Plex debrid on my jellyfin server? It has a couple of tmux sessions that randomly get killed. Would setting them up instead as pods work?

    GOG.com from Poland - DRM-free computer games
  • Yes, but that is not GOG supporting Linux. Steam on the other hand goes out of their way to support Linux. And the solution you mentioned wouldn't even be working all that well if steam hadn't brought proton to the scene. I know wine has been there forever, but only since proton the game compatibility shot through the roof.

  • What do you think about this one?
  • I recently needed to implement some batch processing logic in our code to account for some api level restrictions (the code already pulls from the api in pages and date ranges, but if I specify a date range too wide or a batch that would get too many records back, it gets rejected, so we need to break it down and run the date range in batches). I tell this junior developer what the issue is, and what we need to add to the existing class in our codebase. I follow up with him after a week, and this is what he sends me.

    Boilerplate code from chatgpt that has almost nothing to do with what we discussed. And how can you even give me a whole 'working' code without even testing it? He didn't even clone our original repo and test it as is to understand why we need what we need. AI sure is making programmers dumb.

    Roy Lee built an AI system that bypasses FAANG's brutal technical interviews and says that the work of most programmers will be obsolete in two years.

    I may be a old man yelling at the clouds, but I still think programming skills are going nowhere. He seems to bet his future on his 'predictions'

    The Spirit Girl, by my 9yo (she doesn't know what that thing in the water is, either)

    EDIT: After reading and laughing at all the guesses in the comments, she finally fessed up. It was supposed to be a zora from BotW/Totk, but it didn't turn out the way she wanted, so she just disowned it.

    A prolific writer
  • That deeply resonates with me. I love the message about a capitalistic society only thinking in terms or percentages; of profit, of revenue, of stock growth. Wow. She should write more.

  • Is there an active mechanic advice community on lemmy? Looking for advice.

    Replaced tailgate around Christmas after a collision, and now noticing condensation inside a taillight. Body shop says they're not responsible and are quoting $250 to replace. Please advice.

    Edit: Thanks for all your advice. I'm going to ask my insurance if they'll cover this as part of the original collision claim. btw, I posted the same thing to /r/mechanicadvice at the same time, and haven't received a single reply there till now. Happy to see lemmy doing great as a reddit replacement.

    Update: Thanks for all your advice. I spoke to my insurance and asked them if they would cover it as part of the original repairs, and they've agreed to do so!

    Books like A Man Called Ove?

    Just finished reading this book, and it was very moving. I've read one other book by Frederick Backman (And every day the way home gets longer), and loved it as well. Please suggest some books in the same style of these books (a bit more feel good like Ove would be great, but fine either way)
