cprn said @retoor Oh, I had them set up as well… but I type faster than I notice changes on the screen.
And for everyone who *doesn't* set up different terminal themes for different environments — do it. It's too easy not to:
alias prod='tput setaf 128; ssh prod-host; tput reset',@donkulator Yeah... What about a scenario where you *want* databases to have the same name (they're on different hosts anyway).,@tosensei @bazmd It doesn't apply. I was 100% certain I didn't need the test db any more. The issue is I called the command on a prod server by accident. And because I was patching stuff, I used a user with write access. I could, I guess, have a user that had access to things like `UPDATE`, but not `TRUNCATE`, etc… but it wasn't my job to manage users and I worked with what I was given.
Yeah, there was a delayed replication set up. I just wasted time.,@tosensei Oh, I fully agree I wasn't done — I still had to check a number of boxes on prod. But the initial statement regarded the necessity — I seriously didn't need the test db any more, and it really *was* safe to remove. The issue was rooted in removing the *wrong* db. So I guess… “check twice”, or something like that.,@donkulator I don't disagree, but then there are probably a number of other variables I should've checked as well… At which point, it'd just make more sense not to meddle on production at all. But that fight I lost.,Pun intended, though it's not about @root either… but it might as well be.,So no one does the Rincewind...?
bindkey "^P" history-beginning-search-backward
bindkey "^N" history-beginning-search-forward,@Root Close, though…? 😆 Same experience minus trolls? Admittedly, the platform I'm actually talking about is known for its trolling capability.,@Demolishun It's not Blamers Anonymous if it's true. 😝 Although, I'm not really blaming anyone, just noticed how much easier it could've been if there simply was a “PM” button.,@antigermgerm Discord's way more accessible, though, as a one-time disposable proxy. I removed the server after we've connected directly. Although it wasn't Discord.,@retoor I neither confirm nor deny. 😂,@retoor Well, yeah, we're in a place where people rant about their jobs, so trying to be professional and avoid leaking any connections to any piece of data that might point to one of my (former) employers. Nowadays, I use e-mail alias per service and come up with unique usernames, but I didn't always do that.
I stand by everything I ever posted, though. Here or otherwise.,@retoor If shit ever hits the fan, blame it on Retoor:1B 😆,@retoor You're way more advanced on that than I am. The only reason I understood what you've said is usage of embeddings in Stable Diffusion. I know nothing about creating them, though — respect.
I wonder if this is how we will go through job interviews in the future. You train a model on your personal data, workflow, tech stack, world views and some pet projects, then send it to interviews to compete with other models. Recruiting AI talks to every candidate AI, then they negotiate pay, work conditions and draft a contract.,@devRancid What if Steven are a layman, hence, don't know how to…?,@SidTheITGuy That would alleviate the necessity for contact exchange, wouldn't it… 😆,@asgs Replicated database was 20 minutes behind, I paused the system, switched databases, removed bad query from binlog, forced a catch-up, unpaused. Downtime was way below 10 minutes, including checks (and that time I checked twice).,@devRancid Call me paranoid, but pasting secrets in plain text to a 3rd party website rubs me the wrong way.,I agree, but have a kind of bigger reason than aesthetics. Accessibility. People who use special browsers that already hook into events like scrolling (or clicking, or anything else). By changing any of the normal aspects of the browser, websites render accessibility features useless. I worked with many disabled people over a span of 7 years fighting to get their browser experience bearable. I was often forced to write a user-space JavaScript disabling vendor JavaScript on specific, especially annoying websites (and it wasn't easy, they really want their popups to pop).
Fun fact. You'd never guess which website is considered a beacon of JavaScript best practices in accessibility community. It never hinders any of the built-in browser features — automatically tested on 20 browsers, including Conkeror and Midori. Not Google, not Facebook… but Pornhub. And if they do hinder any browser, their Bug Bounty covers finding that.,Well, the connection has timed out... Shame. I wanted to ask it if Retoor's hot. She reads hot. But so does Demolishun, and I bet he ugly!,The only question left: did the 1st one come out great, or botched?,@We3D I always botch the 1st one… It's a curse! Or unevenly heated pan. One of the two.,BTW, US people call them crepes, right?,@We3D Anything east of Germany. Pans here are either shitty or cost an arm and a leg.,@retoor HTTP timeout, even after putting IP in hosts. Tried yesterday, tried today, same result. :( But no worries, if it's online I'll get there, sooner or later. You tiny hottie, you!,@retoor A friend of mine wanted her adjustable desk to randomly change height, so it'd force her to change position every 20 minutes or so. She sent me some photos and half an hour later I knocked on her door with a programmed esp32 and a soldering iron in my hand. She went absolutely bonkers about how many supposedly unrelated (her words) skills I have. I'm trying to convince her it's perfectly normal in IT to dabble in things like electronics, picking locks, defeating car security, etc, and that she's the odd one for not being into that stuff.,@retoor No worries, I'll get to it when it's done reading, lol. And TBH with you, the only thing I know about IPv6 so far is how to disable it. So yeah, it's absolutely possible you're using IPv6 and I use IPv4. Shouldn't matter for the domain, though, should it?,I never thought I'd say that, but… I love VSCode!
I don't get the Rust one. Is this supposed to be C++ logotype font? I'm guessing not, because there's only one letter in C, and the logotype is round C in a hexagon. Also blue/white, not black/green. So there must be some other hexagon based programming language related font out there.,You know what? You're right. I waive the "no discussions" clause of my original post. Discuss away! I regretted it as soon as comments started flowing in, and I wanted to ask questions myself.,Everyone, consider the "no discussions" clause waived.
@CoreFusionX so we know what was the worst part. But… 😆
1. What was the best part?
2. Did you work on something any of us could've played?
3. And did you use the vanilla stack when working on games?
The 3rd question comes directly from my exp with modding Unity games. I usually manage to use Vim for anything and can find a tool that can compile everything from command line. With games made in Unity I failed, though. It's just plain C#, and still mods never work compiled with plain `dotenv` or `mono`. I always have to compile it in a full Unity editor, because it apparently does something special that composes the assets, resources, etc, into the final DLL and IDK how to do it otherwise. It annoys the hell out of me. A coder who can't compile his project outside a GUI editor, for me, is the same as a coder who uses same IDE their whole career and debugs with `print`, because they don't know what a debugger is.,Discuss away, dolls & guys. There's not enough comments to worry about issues with counting anyway. I don't know what I was thinking.,@tosensei Discuss away. It was a silly thing to ask for anyway.,@retoor: “My hobbies are both in your name”
my-name: 😚😙😎😈,@jestdotty Okay, I originally meant "weird" as in "unrelated to IT" (assuming we're all in IT somehow here), but I'm now interested in the "bizarre"! I mean "spiritually taking drugs". Count me in!
My most excentric hobby: I bred lizards when I was 12-14 and started breeding insects to save on feeding. Then I kept the insects farm long after the lizards were gone (sold, not dead). Literally had bugs in my room. Imagine how popular it made me with the ladies.,@CoreFusionX Yeah, I fucked off. 🖤,@dIREsTRAITS I hope it's sarcasm mastery 😆,@retoor One of those days I'm totally feeding my parents canabrownies. And I'm not going to tell them shit.,@CoreFusionX Well, that explains a lot (talking about Unity).,How... Wh... A PHOTO?? 😂😂😂,@tosensei Free range lambdas outperform other lambdas at kernel multiplication. And taste better.,@retoor I literally never get high on Mary Jane… To the point, my friends once wasted all they had on me just to see if I'd react at all (it was a bit over 6g). All I got from it was 15 minutes of hearing music with my eyes, and the mother of all hangovers for the next 3 days. Not worth it.
But seeing my mum high as balls…? Hell, yeah! Going to do it this Christmas if I manage to score some in time! 😂,@retoor LOL, I knew it's rooter, I never noticed it's backwards.,@retoor Mary Jane is just a direct translation of Mari Juana, hence, weed — any weed. I sometimes forget I'm a few years older and have to translate my thoughts for *babies*. 😆
And yes, hearing with eyes is hard to describe, but it's the best description I came up with, because e.g. I remember that if I was looking in a wrong place I couldn't hear, and apparently I said something like: “I can either hear you or see you, which one do you want?” in the middle of otherwise normal conversation.
Never tried XTC. I always felt like you need a right person to do it with, a girl in my case… and my usual drug induced environment is sausage fest with guys I wouldn't touch with a stick. 😆```
