reminder that installing and updating stuff from pnpm, pypi, cpan, luarocks is like sticking your dick in an AIDS hole
>>109057105As long as you stick to popular and trustworthy packages you're probably fine
>>109057105>>109057120I have added this to all my .yarnrc.yml files in every project to feel a bit safernpmMinimalAgeGate: 1d
npmMinimalAgeGate: 1d
>>109057120yes popular and trustworthy packages that wouldn't work without 6 million other popular and trustworthy packages, some with the authors having compromised github credentials through malicious vscode extension
start using asp.net and stop procrastinating
>>109057383Thanks Satya
This seems quite cool, Apple has made their own thing similar to WSL on Windows, allowing for lightweight Linux VMs. Good for web dev when you want a Linux VM which mirrors your production server.https://github.com/apple/container
>>109057081DO is like 80% dotheads right
>>109057081Total JS victory
>>109058222isn't Docker using it by default on macOS?I might be wrong here but I think I heard something about this
>>109059996Maybe Docker is using some virtualisation stuff built into MacOS. But this new thing from Apple seems to be an alternative to Docker I guess, because it can run Docker images, and it can also function similarly to WSL. In the docs it says you can create a VM based on the Alpine Docker image, and then launch a shell for that VM, with these commands:>container machine create alpine:latest --name dev>container machine run -n dev
>>109060479that's really neat, need to check it out
>>109057171>age of consent for packages
>>109057081Why in some frameworks edits to .css files take ages to become effective?
>>109060497lmao gave me a chuckle
>>109060762Really depends on how the css is being loaded and hot refreshed: i.e. all in a single bundle vs multiple .css files, and the loading strategy can be influenced on the css processor plugin and framework.Some frameworks have different loading strategies for CSS based on dev vs production. e.g. dev loads multiple files vs production all in one file, but that can be a huge issue because CSS prescedence might mean inconsistent styles applied in dev vs production, so some fw's try to use make it as close to production bundling as possible while still keeping hot reloading viable.

>>109062012>I wouldn't want people knowing I post here though.yeah that's my thinking as well
>>109057081I've been reanimating the corpse of a long-dead social media site. I've scraped the wayback machine, old files I saved, screenshots and YT videos to get the layout.It's been pretty fun! The arcane HTML and JS is straightforward to understand, if a little inelegant.I'll launch it once I've implemented enough features to be launch-able.

>>109061345possibly still Reddit but my god there's so many apps being shilled on there and they all get torn apart and accused of vibe coding by default, they've gotten very picky lately. then again for all I know maybe there's 10 prospective users for every 1 angry nerd comment.I'm wondering if making a YouTube video demo or a Twitter pitch would be better, big potential reach (algorithm willing) with less snarky fedoras

>>109065391Ruby isn't that popular these days
>Linode vs. IONOSWhy are the prices so crazy different? What am I missing?
>>109067845dedicated vs VPS, those are different productsthough Linode has always been a mainstream vendor where you spend a bit more for the big name
>>109065298ASP.NET + Razor pages. I've found it fairly easy to put the recovered HTML into Razor as templates, pull missing assets from the links in CSS files and grab those from the wayback machine, it all slots in nicely just needs a bit of cleaning up!Then doing the logic in proper .NET style + EF for DB. Sensible types, as I know it best.Going to add a signup form to the splash later today - PHP will be enough for that.
>>109067868Even the shared CPU versions have a crazy difference in price. I guess it really is just brand name?I'm not really sure what the difference is with VPS vs dedicated. Wouldn't the Linode offering just be a VPS with a dedicated CPU?
>>109067920VPS is timesharing: the vendor has a fleet of big machines and carves it up into tiny slices for resale. This is convenient since you can buy small slices but occasionally leads to inconsistent performance. Whereas dedicated rental is kinda more like a personal pizza than a slice, at least the capacity is reserved and won't be pushing with neighbors.Linode's price is typical for their market segment; their main competition (DigitalOcean) also starts at $5/1GB.
>>109068084It sounds like the "shared CPU" offering would be equivalent to the VPS that's offered much cheaper elsewhere. I'm used to seeing razor thin margins and prices being pretty competitive when it comes to stuff like this.
>>109068100sure, but these IANUS folks look like no-names. $2/1gb is cheaper than usual (~$3) for a lowendbox but you're locked in for 3 years. The big boys do $5/1gb but they charge by the hour, have a long reputation, and offer other cloud products (data storage, CDN, networking etc.)
>>109067845>with a 3 year termUh your eyes?
>>109067920I guess the difference between VPS prices for those two companies is because the Ionos price requires a 3 year commitment.
>>109066911Other VPS prices I've looked at recently have risen. Fucking AI company bastards driving up the price of hardware.
