Because Wordpress is also hosting 1000s of plugins that WP engine users can install.
I’m not sure what the license regarding those things is, WP engine could probably just mirror it -
But they basically got locked out of the default ecosystem infrastructure.
Since others already suggested mostly on-topic suggests, here’s an alternative suggestion:
Instead of looking specifically for a mentor - look for an open source project that you can help with. Ideally one with a discord or something to it’s easy to be in contact the the lead dev. A lot people don’t mind mentoring juniors, but in my experience it doesn’t happens that explicitly - “be my mentor” - and it might sound like you’re asking them a lot.
If you invert it into “Hey I wanna help you with your open-source project, but I don’t really know what to do, what your expectations are, how to implement a specific feature” - then you’re offering to do work them, instead of asking for something. And implicitly you’ll get mentorship in return.
And “real” projects probably also look better on your github / portfolio than only some dummy projects for learning purposes
That doesn’t really work all the time, because large files or large commits are lazy loaded on scroll, so what you’re searching might not have loaded yet
The code search does a server side search
Omg it’s sooo daammmn slooow it takes around 30 seconds to bulk - insert 15000 rows
Do you have any measurements on how long it takes when you just ‘do it raw’? Like trying to do the same insert though SQL Server Management Studio or something?
Because to me it’s not really clear what’s slow. Like you’re complaining specifically about the Microsoft ODBC driver - but do you base that on anything? Can you insert faster from Linux or through other means?
Like if it’s just ‘always slow’ it might just be the SQL Server. If you can better pinpoint when it’s slow, and when it’s fast(er) that probably helps to tell how to speed it up
When I stopped, subversion was what we used. I’m trying to understand Git, but it’s a giant conceptual leap.
It’s probably not ‘that much of a leap’ as you imagine. If you’re looking at Git tutorials, they’re usually covering all kinda complex scenarios of how to ‘properly use Git’. But a lot of people barely care about ‘properly using Git’ and they just kinda use it as a substitute for SVN… You create branches, you merge them back and forth, and that’s about it.
Like if you want to contribute to an open source project, all you have to do is create a fork (your own branch in SVN terms) - commit some stuff to it, and create a pull request (request to have your changes merged) back to the original branch. git pull is just svn update - getting someone elses commits
Not saying there aren’t more complex features in git, or that learning git properly isn’t worth it, just saying, I don’t think you have to see it as a ‘giant conceptual leap’ that’s preventing you from jumping back into programming. Easiest approach just to get started would be probably to just download a GUI like Sourcetree or Fork, and you just kinda pretend you’re still using SVN - approach wise
Problem Details for HTTP APIs - I have to work and integrate with a lot of different APIs and different kinda implementations of error handling. Everyone seems to be inventing their own flavor of returning errors.
My life would be so much easier if everyone just used some ‘global unified’ way to returning errors, all in the same way
I agree with @[email protected] - since you "don’t know where to start“ - just start simple. Maybe lemmy will be fine for now.
Otherwise, to at least pitch some alternative: you can Google for a vbulletin host. A lot of hosting providers offer a “managed vbulletin” solution. Meaning you don’t have to get a bare metal machine and don’t have to be bothered with installing all the software yourself.
I don’t know if there are free solutions, but with a quick Google, it doesn’t seem like it’s more than a couple $ a month for a small server
What are you building, it depends a bit on your usecase
Otherwise c# Blazor compiles to WASM
If it’s a public repo, revoke the key (on your own/company repo it might not matter so much)
Then
git reset head~1git push - fbase63? I’d guess you’d mean base64?
Anyways, doesn’t that fuck with performance?
I’m using this in production: RT.Comb - That still generates GUIDs, but generates them sequential over time. Gives you both the benefits of sequential ids, and also the benefits of sequential keys. I haven’t had any issues or collisions with that
Yea, should have been V-00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000008 instead
Hmm, well the first round(s) are doable for beginners. If you want to get into programming, these kinda games are a good way to start, since you’re getting visual feedback of what your bot is actually doing.
And you can participate in loads of languages, so you can pick anything that you’re somewhat familiar with.
However, once you’re getting into higher rounds, ranks, and leagues, you’ll be playing against other peoples’ bots. So obviously if you have 0 experience it’ll be way harder to beat people with loads of experience, that understand which algorithms are suitable etc.
But I’d say go ahead and try it out. Its free. Maybe it turns out to be too difficult, maybe you’ll manage.
If “build the server and client in the same language” is a hard requirement, I believe your only choice is JavaScript…
You can probably also use Java. And I’ve used dotnet / c# for it. You can build the server in ASP-core, and a desktop client in Avalonia, or a website in Blazor
It would be easy for Google to remove the guardrails from WebAssembly in some sort of public testing version of Chromium
Google is not the authority on WASM, W3C is. Google diverging from the standards and removing any guardrails would result in “This page only works in Chrome” kinda bullshit we’ve seen before
It’s not a big red flag, but it indicates that the product is not fully open source. You can get the full community edition from Github, but for the Self-hosted Enterprise version you have to contact sales.
So all the Enterprise features are most likely closed source, and when you buy/license it, you’ll just get the compiled version. And since their Cloud hosting model has a “Per 1,000 sessions/mo” model, their Enterprise self hosted model might have that as well. So it’ll have some kinda DRM/License managing, and maybe a “call home” to check your license or usage every once in a while
He’s already pointing out the problems himself:
The difference is that Spotify is a for-profit corporation. And they have to distribute profits to their stockholders before they pay the musicians. And as a result, the musicians complain that they’re not getting very much at all.
Yea, so at Spotify the profits are distributed “equally” - meaning Taylor Swift with 1 billion listens per month gets 99.9999% of the profits, [[Obscure metal band]] with 100 listens gets $0.001. However, if I only listened to [[Obscure metal band]] and nothing else, shouldn’t my entire $5.99/month go to [[Obscure metal band]]? And not be pooled with stuff I didn’t listen to?
How would this work with a “Post-Open software administrative organization”? Ubuntu has 1 billion installs, my [[Obscure open source library]] is used by a couple of companies, and it’s the only “Post-Open software” that those companies use - Do I get that 1 percent of their revenue? Or does administrative organization siphon it away, keep 0.1%, and send the other 0.9% to the top 10 “Post-Open Projects”…?
Companies would have to publish which “Post-Open software” software they’re using, and to what extend. For example, if Ubuntu would be Post-Open-software, it uses loads of inner projects and libraries, which again use more and more libraries, some might being Post-Open software. You’d have to create a whole financial dependency tree per company to determine how to distribute their revenue fairly
I manually redraw my service architecture because I can create higher quality documentation than when trying to auto-generate it.
But you can get a baseline depending on which Cloud you use. For example, in AWS you can use workload discovery - that generates a system overview.
Bonus (optional) question: Is there a way to handle schema updates? For example generate code from the documentation that triggers a CI build in affected repos to ensure it still works with the updates.
Yes, for example, if your build server exposes the API with an OpenAPI scheme, you can use the build server to generate a client library like a nuget or npn.
Then in the API consumer you can add a build step that checks if there are new version of the client library. Or setup dependabot that creates PRs to update those dependencies
It’s not really a rug-pull in the usual sense though - of “all of a sudden you cannot use this product anymore”
You can still use it up to the commit where they changed the license. And then people just make a fork from there and the community moves away from the initial project to the fork
The month before Dwarf Fortress was released on Steam (and Itch.io), the brothers Zach and Tarn Adams made $15,635 in revenue, mostly from donations for their 16-year freeware project. The month after the game’s commercial debut, they made $7,230,123
So about $16k on a 16-year project = $1k a year. He seems to be doing well after the paid release. So not really a success of “free software”
Recruitment is now basically Dead Internet theory…
