As a developer, I would rather deal with AI generated code than crappy human written code. The new AI era will be nice unlike the current popular opinion.

Python will get a JIT starting with version 3.13 (tonybaloney.github...), but it will not be enabled by default. It's a good time to be a Python developer.

🤚🏻 Vivek Everyone, I recently started learning backend development and have completed studying Node.js and Express. I made a jobs API by following a project, and I have learned a lot about how APIs work and how to make them. What are some more projects that I can make to find an internship as a backend developer?

😀 Tom The kit is $50 USD, and it will get OS updates for another year, and I think security updates for another 2 years after that (and I can get OS updates if I go with something like CaylxOS). I will keep my eye out for Pixel 8, and hopefully they'll come out with a device that's no bigger than the Pixel 5 is. I want to use my phone one-handed! Why can't they make a "small" (normal size) phone!?

🦿 Lucian Marin Pixel 5 works best with 432 dp set as smallest width in developer options and Zenit launcher.

🤓 Simon Hamp Just found my login for here after losing it. Glad to have a more real place now that Twitter is heading down the tubes

🦿 Lucian Marin Now Elon wants to improve Twitter backend after he fired all remote backend developers. Twitter has become slow in some countries.

🦿 Lucian Marin I changed the way unfeeder.com fetches articles. It's faster, new articles every couples of minutes. It doesn't depend on the Facebook API any longer. I can provide a JSON API for iOS and Android developers.

Cole Hudson It would probably be fairly advantageous to game engines if they developed a simpler, quick language (say Lua) targeting a high-level subset of said engine's functionality. In terms of on-boarding new developers, I wonder how many kids/teens churn due to some combination of not understanding C# or Unity's docs. Roblox seems to demonstrate there's value in doing this.

🏛️ Brandon Pittman It's fucked up to say, but 2020 was probably the best year of my life. I got married and went full-time as a software developer.

🦇 Arr We need more speed. My iPhone SE 2020 scrolls more smoothly then my Intel Xeon, Nvidia 1080. Single core performance is only 10% better in the smartphone, but somehow the mobile system feels faster. A 15+ years old Mac with OS 9 is faster when typing input than an Intel MacBook Air with OS X was shown in recent benchmarks. "UI always scales to make any CPU underpowered" is a postulated law of computer engineering. Some people buying a MS Surface (7th gen) report bad perf, too

👂 Sly Yeah, we need optimized _native_ software and _better_ developers. Having a faster CPU doesn't make your software optimized, it makes it run a little bit faster, that's all. Throwing more speed at it isn't gonna solve the problem. "UI always scales to make any CPU underpowered" is an optimization problem.

Enny John Hi Everyone, being awhile. Any developers on here with expertise and experience in React, Firebase, Escrow & Amazon AWS (in addition to HTML & CSS) ?

Miso Heya! Why are you asking? I've had some projects on react and firebase

👂 Sly Being modular actually takes the complexity away and puts it into different small parts, which makes it easy to understand, fix and develop, the idea that something modular is more expensive isn't true at all, PCs are way modular than macs for the third of the price, heat isn't really an issue either, you can cool down each part individually and have an overall better air flow. Also, being upgradable and repairable is much more better for the environment.

🥝 Mr No software / hardware developer will agree with your points. If you don't care about the size of your device, are willing to utilize slow changing standards, and want to pick-and-choose parts - modular is good for you. But if you want a tightly coupled, focused product, modular is not going to fit the bill. It will be larger, there is waste in the manufacturing of boards that plug into other boards, and the heat can't be carefully managed for every different modular part.

😃 Javier I just Installed WSL 2 For Windows 10 Ubuntu flavour. No Linux GUI! I had to open powershell (shudder) to enable the WSL feature. This is a better alternative than git-bash or cygwin for developers who want to game on the weekend.

🧐 Nrmn Those people just don't know what they have! I'm sure you deserve that raise! What new thing are you looking at? My week is okay but going pretty slow. Lots of stuff blocking me from finally finishing my article on writing a router for vue3.

👨‍💻 Matthieu V. I found that website that "uberized" developers, so anyone with a problem can hire someone else to fix it, so it help compensating that non-raise! Also it makes me go out my comfort zone and I learn thing from people I help, it's very varied
