Maybe it's changed, but when I went to Berkeley, it was really common that the homework counted for next to nothing and it was on you to do it since the majority of your grade (if not all) was on mid-terms and finals. No one really complained back then...maybe it's changed a lot, but if so, I'd say they should go back to their roots ;)

Re:Rails World 2026 Closing Keynote – Aaron Patterson [video] on Monday September 28, 2026 @11:07AM (#49879249)
After the opening keynote, this is a breath of fresh air. Kind of odd (but nice/well deserved!) to see him riff on DHH's keynote.

I'm actually thinking that may be a good thing. Maybe people will get off these feeds and...interact with people IRL? ;)

This sounds neat...I'd love to do it as well. Any past predictions vs current conditions tools or datasets that you're using?

This article is a bit refreshing - focusing on the things that actually matter logistically when choosing a place to live rather than buying into various hype trends....
fair enough...any drawbacks that you've found?
As someone who does use other models with CC, I am curious about opencode, what extra features does it have that you find essential?

Re:Why We Migrated from Python to Node.js on Monday November 03, 2025 @09:14PM (#45806797)
As someone who who's a polygot programmer, I've always agreed with this in theory; however, the biggest challenge I've found in giving Elixir a shot is that, well the job market doesn't seem to favor ANY elixir jobs out there...especially for someone who's only made 'toy' apps in Phoenix. And for prototyping apps, I'm just faster in Ruby/Rails to make it worth it PLUS if you want to debug ML/LLM scripts you have to know Python anyways.

Any recommendations for someone looking to break into the Elixir space in a serious (job-related/production app) way?

Re:Ruby 3.5 Feature: Namespace on read on Tuesday May 13, 2025 @01:10AM (#43969781)
that's great advice, but finding Elixir/Phoenix jobs seems to be few and far between (and seem to be for less pay). Where are you able to find your Elixir / Phoenix jobs?
Re:VSCode's SSH agent is bananas on Friday February 07, 2025 @10:10PM (#42980023)
As mentioned in other threads, I'd love it if I could use Sublime Text remotely, but am stuck using VSCode simply because of what this setup allows in terms of remote coding. Perhaps a standard too that any editor could use would be amazing -- is there anything else out there that enables this much functionality out there?
