Yes… let’s reschedule a public hearing because one person had a conflict? Maybe we could just adapt to people having lives and working?

Why is your only solution to literally any problem to rewrite everything? Five months for non trivial auth is hilarious. It’s not like you used WindowsScript, that’s just C#.

Your first mistake was switching to the dumpster fire that is matrix.

You can use XMPP with e2ee with more adventurous or likeminded peers. You can install some bridges to the services your friends want to keep using. Most competent xmpp servers can get you chatting (with XMPP) within 5-20 minutes (if you have no issues wrangling DNS and certs) and it’ll likely do p2p voice/video calling with e2ee right out of the box. These are incredibly light programs you can run on small VPSes. Try all the client programs you can trust, use whatever you like.

Use movim and Libervia with your server. Libervia can bring the ActivityPub to your XMPP clients. You can do anything you want to, as privately as you can. Enjoy content syndication with pubsub and atom. Interact with the wider fediverse on your own terms.

You can already do what you want. S3 with HTTP, XML + XSL for responsive / dynamic content.

This is both positive and negative, but it’s overall a success in the interview process, but not a job quite yet.

You’re in what is generally the final stage, you’ll likely have a call or meeting after this in a week or two to discuss results.

You’re currently up against everyone else who has survived the interview process. They’re looking for one or more things on this list:

• “Culture Fit” (they want to work with you because they like who you are)

• Technical Expertise (they want your skills to augment the team and are comfortable with who you are and the idea of working with you)

• Extraordinary Technical Expertise (in the right setting sometimes all that matters is you’re really good at one or more desperately needed skills)

• Internal Business Needs (your skillset fulfills some internal need, you can ask if this is the case, actually)

Ultimately what rings true is generally the best thing you can do is see if your personality is a fit for the team’s culture. They want to see you try, you’ll need to evaluate them as well. Don’t go overboard, be sincere. Clearly they are entertaining the idea of working with you.

Odds are you’ll be asked a selection of technical questions. It is not an exam, the right answer is not the goal, and honestly every correct solution will be rewarded with more bullshit to get you thinking and adapting. They’ll be evaluating you, not your solution nor your perfect ability to spit out code. They might be wondering “can I pair program with this person” or perhaps something else, be that person they want, ideally by being yourself.

Why is it negative? This is the part where you get your hopes up, and ultimately you are still against the best part of the interview pool. Mentally prepare to walk away proud you got here, hope for the offer and acceptance!

If you are in the United States: You will not have a job until you show up on your first day. Job offers, employment contracts, don’t bother entertaining the illusion these are bulletproof documents that grant you any protection if they back out. Ideally don’t worry about it, I’ve seen some people get screwed over lol.

If you are not in the United States: Getting to this point in the interviews is even more impressive and lucrative, further congratulations are in order: Congrats, get that contract!

Lol this is some weird out of touch take if I’ve ever seen one

God, shut up. There’s the “communist” dumbass instances which is just far right levels of stupid, and then literally the entire rest of this platform is just normal centrist europe views. “Leftist” is a term Americans use to describe giving immigrants healthcare and thinking homeless people should be given homes.

Fucking LLMs

Now, please write me a haiku

Prove you are human

It is not a mistranslation

That’s not really how this works

For anyone who can’t read that many words at once: URI means identifier and URL means locator.

Matrix does not mix the roles of its URIs beyond the ability to attempt to reach that homeserver through NOT ONLY DNS but also through routing between homeservers. Matrix, unlike this garbage, actually wants to support ephemeral homeservers and such as well.

Sadly these web technology fucks cannot get their heads even a centimeter further towards the exit of their anus to even risk beginning to care about how garbage their architectures are.

Matrix was influenced by the traditional URI schema approach however they also used an inverted URI to have the most significant segment be the first segmont. This is why it has a prepended segment followed by a : and then a URL.

The relationship the URI is describing is homeserver owns user and traditionally we might go homeserver:user I’d argue it is obvious to just invert that into user:homeserver. See Java, dotnet, etc reverse dns naming conventions.

A matrix room is not at a URI, it is on every homeserver that participates in the room. I am not talking about Lemmy and its garbage entirely incorrectly semantic URI scheme. Matrix rooms are globally uniquely identified, and so the room URI only describes the idea of the resource of the room. room:homeserver.

The prefixes are an obvious and neccesary evil for parsing them out of unstructured text. A requirement for most users.

ActivityPub and related went “fuck everything, fuck reason, the web is fucking amazing” and came up with their own flavor of stupidity. Emails use an ancient first attempt at a URL. A URL. What does the URL do? It is explicitly intended to tell you which server to contact. People are going “yeah but email!1!!” entirely moronically ignoring historical context.

Just take whatever calls to you. AI isnt going to affect anything long term, but if you dont actually like software engineering you have no chance when you are competing with applicants for jobs who wholeheartedly love the craft.

If you are planning to use AI at any point in your education, save yourself the time and money and just take management. There is no future for your AI-mangled lack of ability in our industry.

There is no need, and you’re defeating the point of using tailscale. Use headscale if you cannot summit your anxiety around trusting tailscale.

You’re weird for not knowing the OP’s actual point?

Private internet access is nice

You’re out of touch.

Worth noting that iirc the lorax doesn’t actually do anything except speak up for those who needed help and protection. He didn’t win immediately but his efforts weren’t in vain. The lorax (or at least the movie?) shows you many ways you can be a part of changing the world. You dont have to be Ted, you don’t have to be the Lorax, you don’t have to be granny norma, or Ted’s love interest, or the people who spoke up first when Ted planted the tree. All of these people made the world better with their own contribution. You should consider it, though.

I’d imagine the fact that is not legal and is negligent would stop them.

In this case the morons at lemmy.ml have likely defined nationalism as “with regard to any nation that isnt communist or previously communist” and “without disagreeable (to tankies) opinion”
