Spring moved away from XML ages ago. I work on a 6 year old Spring project and it has never had a single line of XML in it.

No idea, I’ve never used either of those tools.

I think some people still use Maven, but I use Gradle in all of mine. Gradle build files are written in Kotlin instead of XML like Maven.

Naming things in programming is a solved problem now. You can just name it Thingy, and then ask Copilot Chat what it should be called when you’re done implementing it

At 1/100 speed, light would be so redshifted that you wouldn’t be able to perceive it. However, some X-rays (1-10nm) would be redshifted into the visible range (400 to 700nm).

I guess this means you would have x-ray vision. But you would see little to nothing since our environment normally does not include significant levels of X-rays.

I reported my bike stolen in college and I got a call the next day that they had found it parked in front of a nearby church.

It was stolen on a Sunday. I guess someone didn’t want to be late to service.

Yes. The training data has a bias, and they are using a cheap hack (prompt manipulation) to try to patch it.

There’s a ton of movies called that. What year?

lars,

The 2006 mini series or the 2007 movie?

There was also a movie called Black Christmas released in 1977, 2006, and 2009

I overbought on candy to hand out to children and now have a larger candy stash than I ever did as a kid

That’s too bad. My neighborhood is going stronger than ever. All my neighbors are super into Halloween and we all go nuts with decorations and I give out full size bars too. Rumors spread amongst the children and more come to our neighborhood each year.

Imagine someone buys the Mona Lisa and declares that its not art and da Vinci grafittied their privately owned piece of canvas. Artists around the globe in shambles.

I use Brave to test whether my websites work on Chromium browsers, but their scummy actions lately make me want to find a new Chromium browser to test with. What's the best Chromium based browser?

I already use Firefox for browsing normally, but I have to test on a Chromium based browser too. One soft requirement is that it should be installable with Flatpak on Linux.

I use Vivaldi because of it’s tab management.

I have it configured to put the tabs in a bar on the right side of the screen. That way you have full tab titles no matter how many you have open.

It’s also got a tiling window manager. So you can select two tabs and tell it to split screen them within the single window of Vivaldi. Or select 3, or 4, or whatever and put them in a grid. All sorts of options.

I’ve got big 4k monitors, so I’ve grouped up some pinned tabs to always be tiled (like my email and calendar)

It’s got lots of other nice tab features and just regular features, but those are the main selling ports for me personally.

If you know the line number, the bug is 99% solved

From a cursory look (I’m on my phone), it seems like a worse version of JOOQ. But I’d be interested in seeing a comparison of their relative strengths and weaknesses.

JOOQ generates code by looking at your schema (either the real database or schema files on disk), whereas it looks like this one uses “dto” files which I’m not familiar with. But could be that it offers more control about how to handle rolling out a new change.

Effect of a gravity assist on person, or whatever, in spaceship

OK, this is dumb, but it’s gone through my head a couple times. I’ve seen a few science fiction movies and shows where the people in the spaceship use a gravity assist and lean into the turns like they’re driving NASCAR or riding a roller coaster....

The Expanse is my favorite series and that scene is hands down the dumbest scene in the show. The showrunners actually posted an article before it aired apologizing for it. Well, for the inaccuracies of the gravity assist, not specifically the leaning.

Overall the show is very good about being scientifically accurate compared to other sci-fi. At least when it’s human technology. The alien tech doesn’t play by the rules.

It was a vertical section of brick. Just off screen to the left the bricks are completely normal and to the right is a window.

Could you resist a true virtual reality and should you?

Lets assume we develop the capacity to create virtual worlds that are near indistinguishable from the real world. We hook you up into a machine and you now find yourself in what effectively is a paraller reality where you get to be the king of your own universe (if you so desire). Nothing is off limits - everything you’ve ever...

lars,
@lars@programming.dev avatar

Of course, but I’d still want to contribute to the real world. Luckily my contributions are non physical, so I could work from VR. And I’d have to log out occasionally to exercise.

Yeah, I'm also coming from Relay. You may be interested to see the list view redesign I just started working on which makes it look a bit more like Relay. Don't know if they'll accept it though. (Ignore the missing thumbnails everywhere, seems to happen in any build I make, even without any changes. Not sure why)

And as sunaurus said, they all have different names on Lemmy too, once you realize you need to count the entire identifier and not just the part before the @.

On reddit you'd have /r/tech and /r/technology, both serving the same thing but with clearly different names. On Lemmy you'll have /c/tech@instance1 and /c/tech@instance2 both serving the same thing but with clearly different names. Eventually one will win out and the other will wither away. Or they'll diverge enough to make subscribing to both worthwhile.

It looks like a good phone game, but not something I'm interested in sitting down at my PC to play.

Too simple, but maybe that's just the trailer not doing a good enough job of showing off the complexity?
