Reliable enough to commute to and from your job. In my experience DB ist really bad at that, especially if you're taking the IC or ICE. intracity public transport usually isn't run by DB, except for the S-Bahns, which work reliably-ish, most of the time. Credit where credit's due

Edit: Sorry, I'm a bit cynical when it comes to the current DB

Where does Germany have reliable transport?

Sure the dev doesn't owe anything, but he is actively putting in the work to remove existing support. Instead of just doing nothing he is sticking it to the linux user by removing support

Edit: I don't see how removing your own, working PKGBUILD will prevent people from installing broken 3rd party packages and complaining about it in your project.

Then explain to me how the bazillion other open source cross-platform Windows-first projects do it. Dropping support for Linux moving forward is fine, but actively going out of your way to remove the existing support is petty and just an asshole move. Especially when paired with a license that restricts 3rdparty packaging.

Also "this doesn't work" is a bad reason not to invest the 3 minutes it takes to make an issue template, and it will already decrease the amount of packaging related issues by at least something

Seems like a skill issue on the part of the dev. GitHub lets you create issue templates and even forms. He could have made it so that every issue creator is warned that packaging issues will be ignored and closed without comment.

Alright lads, only first order logic from now on. Your inability to infer context is your problem and yours alone.

No, just a pedantic pain in the ass

I notice that once I start reading I really enjoy it, but it's always a chore to even bring myself to pick up a book. Even ones I've already started reading and enjoyed, I find difficult to pick back up. I'm not doing anything useful with my time either, my attention keeps getting hogged by YouTube et al :(

I'm not bitching about the existence of code agents in general, I'm bitching about the general attitude of "Code Agents will replace programmers" because no the fuck they are not.

They can produce one-off apps and scripts fairly well to the point where non-programmers can solve their problems (great!) but they lack the necessary sophistication and context to build long-lasting, maintainable and scalable applications, which is what you are hiring developers for in the first place

correct, but if you're paying someone to make you a dish you wouldn't want them to just slap a frozen fish in the microwave and serve it to you. That's what using AI to build enterprise applications for customers is like.

when right wingers use words like "deregulate" they actually mean they want to regulate it so it fits their agenda.

We already went through this in Germany, where gendered language was deemed "ideological" and "prescribing how to speak", despite there being 0 laws requiring gendered language, and at least 1 order actively forbidding it. Talk about "prescribing how to speak"

Seems to depend on the rider. The video OP posted shows that you can cancel your trip if your "expectations aren't being met and the driver isn't as expected"

 

Hello,

I recently bought two small bamboo plants and put them in two pots on my balcony. They're both doing well and have grown several new stalks that are already growing a lot. But I noticed that the existing stalks were not growing at all, and today I found out why: a lot of them are missing their tips.

To my understanding this means those stalks won't grow anymore. Should I cut the "broken" stalks off to make room for new ones? I'm worried that the plant won't have enough leaves to do photosynthesis, because I would have to cut away quite a bunch.

As to why the plants are missing the tips: I don't know. I assume the store I got them from did it to prevent them from outgrowing the tiny pots they came in
