50 years ago most households did not have both parents working full time.

As they explicitly state in the docs, there is no reason to use their cloud service if the machines are accessible to each other via SSH.

You don't understand why some people might have multiple machines they connect to at any given time?

This is fantastic to see, I've been daily driving herdr at work and at home for a few months now. It's great. My biggest complaint has been exactly this, I want all of my ssh sessions available in one spot. Excited to try it out.

You thought your browser was compromised? Pathetic.

I’m not entirely following you. I generally don’t contribute anymore, but in the past I’ve found a lot of maintainers are not actually looking for collaboration, rather free labor.

I certainly understand things are different nowadays, I’m talking pre-LLM proliferation.

I don’t know if it’s just me, and these days I do understand it given the widespread adoption of LLMs, but I’ve always detested the idea that I need to reach out and have a conversation with the maintainer before opening a PR. Especially (mainly) when the PR is simply addressing an approved GH issue.

I’ve had so many perfectly acceptable PRs rejected over the years simply because they didn’t “fit the vision” of the maintainer, despite being +1’d by many members of the community or even other contributors. I don’t even mean to imply they were rude or anything, just uninterested in actually merging anything where they didn’t architect the changes themselves upfront.

On one hand I get it, you’ve spent so much time building something it’s fair to want to hold on tightly to that level of control, but to me it's just always felt antithetical to the entire idea of open source.

Makes me feel like I’m not contributing to a true open source project, just doing free labor for someone.

I think the attitude frequently adopted by open source maintainers - comparing themselves to Spielberg - has been a major roadblock to anyone looking to contribute to open source projects for years.

Well that's horribly reductive. I certainly do not expect everyone in a given field to know absolutely everything there is to know in that field.

Crazy enough, I also hold doctors and surgeons to higher standards than web developers.

100% agree, and so happy to see somebody call this out. If you go on /r/SelfHosted or any other novice oriented forum, you’ll quickly realize that most users are simply “keeping up with the joneses” when it comes to security & redundancy. That itself is fine I guess, but the zero tolerance they have for anything else is just absurd.

Right right, I'd prefer management lock themselves in a closet and not engage with the outside world.

I think it’s fair to call those things out 100% of the time regardless of the LLM usage. Not sure what gave you the impression otherwise.

Absolutely. Really gross to see. Heavy majority of the complaints boil down to “I can’t blindly trust everything posted here now?” - as if they could before?? So entitled.

Also annoys me that all of the suggestions on how to handle filtering AI demonstrate a clear lack of understanding around how agentic coding works. Like if you can’t be bothered to understand why “ban any project that uses AI” is not possible, the entire subreddit is probably above your pay grade…

If you enjoy the flamewar, check out /r/SelfHosted which has been losing it's mind over the last few months. The heavy heavy majority of that community is somehow incredibly anti AI despite the fact that the previous "spammy" posts (before ai assisted projects) were all "what is wrong with my docker compose file"??

Sure, I bet they didn't outright dismiss them as useless to the entire field though! I'm sure they still understood the value those fancy tools provided to their peers.

Probably just needs a slight update to expand the relevant context of child comments. I bet it's still comparing "What's the catch?" to the OP article.

Exactly their point. That $50k of rent includes the cost of repairs & upgrades. The $50k you pay the bank does not.

People want prosperous livelihoods not just jobs. Do you think those working those low paying dead end jobs are just completely content with having zero mobility or financial security?

That uber driving might be living in their car but at least they are employed right??

Pretty funny thread, thanks for sharing. No idea what they are thinking...

The first comment in the thread is a victim of ScanOSS's spam mocking them by opening an issue in their repo following the same format as their bot.

You can go out for drinks with coworkers and not show up hungover the next day... Like, office happy hours are basically a cliché at this point.

Async communication is not even remotely close to socializing, and hardly feels like genuine human interaction.

Have you considered the impact social media has on in person dynamics amongst school age kids?

Insanely naive take.

I feel like I’ve seen this headline at least 20 times over the last 5 years.

You’re not wrong, and I hate to defend the US but, come on. The Holocaust is on a whole other level.

> I strongly feel that, unless you have some acknowledged difficulty in dealing with extraneous information, it is just not reasonable to expect the world's data to be presented to you prefiltered, "on a plate". If you do have a recognized problem with information overload, you'll have to accept that some info sources are not for you. This is not ableism.

This is an incredible take, I strongly agree. I haven’t been able to articulate my thoughts as well as you have here but I completely agree.

This is incredibly reductionist and I’m not trying to strawman here but I feel it’s appropriate. There’s this huge group of people that absolutely despise & openly mock Apple users but simultaneously seem to want some extreme guide rails in their web experience. Absolute lunacy, lol.

Advertising, as a field, has had a horrible reputation since way before anyone on this site was born.

> Schizophrenia was already there, the trip made it apparent.

That is exactly what they are saying.

Right, if you aren’t already doing this, you’re about to have to screen every single comment online in a fucked up game of ‘human or robot’

You and me both. One of the only statement pieces a guy can wear and you throw that away to save the effort of taking your phone out of your pocket? Insanity.
