@prahou parents were doing hashtag neverslop before it was cool

@tibi2 and they were right.we just didnt understand they were being metaphorical.

@prahou this is what my parents said would happen if I sat that close to the tv

@ermo @BastilleBSDYou can use the at(1) command to run something once, with no cleanup needed. Run a crontab entry after midnight to schedule two at commands for the day.Install at if it's not there. It's a small package.

@BastilleBSD since I run a Home Assistant server anyway, I use that to fire off an ssh command using the built-in sunrise/sunset triggers.

@BastilleBSD metacpan.org/pod/DateTime::Eve (or similar) and then use that to generate oneshot cronjobs drop-in files w/a prefix of your choosing (for easy cleanup) in /etc/cron.d/, that fire off a command at the precise time per day based on timestamps from this? Cron runs every minute IIRC.Each week, clean up the old oneshot job file and generate next week's job file.Make sure to schedule the cleanup + regeneration task after the last sunset, but also before any summer/normal time changes.

@harrysintonen funny, to me it translates to "here is another way to deal with error handling"it's close to your translation, there is less negativity thoughespecially useful with recursive functions/data structures

@harrysintonen back in the late 1990s I built a set of macros to get "exceptions" in C using setjmp/longjmp. In my defense I was young and inexperienced and this was never in a general use library.

Classic example of using setjmp/longjmp for error handling:github.com/pnggroup/libpng/blo

@vwbusguy also, who still uses jenkins...? Isn't it more common to see things like GitLab and Nexus?

@vwbusguy @vwbusguy some of these are far more universally useful than others.... do you really think every programmer needs to learn ansible, even if they (for a totally hypothetical example) have zero interest in cloud computing and much greater interest in embedded software and cryptography? (Not to mention, a limited budget.)

@bricks Yesterday's news? This will impact millions of devices for the next 10 years or more...

@remixtures You are late to the party. What you just posted was indeed yesterday‘s news.

@prahou Static blogs are unironically significantly more secure than the average blog.It's pretty hard to exploit vulnerabilities in the code that generates the pages if there isn't any.

@prahou three eyes on master openbsd

@ExistentialistTrainee then you want the linux issue! merveilles.town/@prahou/116680

@prahou What is this about? Some of us use Fedora!

@remixtures Thanks for sharing, I found the article very clear and well explained. One important thing: the Critic is only as good as the Spec. If the spec is ambiguous, or “done” is vague or not written down at all, it has nothing to reject against. Writing a good, clear spec matters now more than ever.

@zerowan Yes, I use Claude Opus 5.5 via Claude Code to check the source code of the repositories and then write the documentation. But then I use GPT 6.1 Sol to review the text produced by Opus. This is great because you can never guess which model makes the best findings. In any case, lately Claude seems to accept the majority of the suggestions and recommendations provided by GPT. I don't even know how can someone say that the outcome of such an itirerative process is just slop. Yes, it takes a lot of time and persistence. Yet, for the great majority of scenarios, the quality of the final output is always better than it would be without using AI agents/LLMs. This will, of course, not work as expected if there's no human being in the loop to make use of his judgement and critical thinking skills when agents seem to lack the proper context.

@remixtures i don’t call it that but work that way anyway - i design and discuss with chatbot higher model - abd implement with builder in terminal - but have each one teview the other - but the builder gets most decisions on implementation as it sees the code base directly _

@remixtures hating vibe coding < hating Adobe.What a weird situation to be in.

@simeon Indeed. And yet a flood of unreviewable papers most of which are wrong may or may not help with discovering those cures I guess.

@pre To your point:“Nobody in their sane mind would want to reject a cure to a disease only because it was made solely by AI.”giorgio.gilest.ro/the-weimar-o

@f800gecko Chunksize changes how work gets handed to workers, not how long each task takes. I've seen a bad value leave processes idle while the last batch finishes.
