Look, I get it that it’s trendy to hate on Microsoft, but these complaints don’t even make sense. You complain about requiring an account to contribute, and then you propose some other services that do the exact same thing! Turning github into a 4chan style free-for-all is a terrible idea. Maybe that’s exactly why you VPN got blocked, because it’s enabling spam accounts. And what info are you giving Microsoft to create an account? An email, a password and a username? Not exactly doxxing material, is it? I just searched for some code from one of my repos in incognito and it was the first thing that popped up.

Microsoft is not preventing you from migrating, it’s just that there is no standard for issues, discussions, PRs etc. But every other service has an import tool that can do it if needed. And if you’re only hosting code (doubt) you’re a git remote add & git push away from being free of that evil Microsoft that is hosting all your repos for free.

I hate Microsoft and big corporations just about as much as anyone on Lemmy, but geez, pick your battles people.

Just commit to a different branch, and then rebase to main. If you’re putting this shit into main, it’s not the tool’s fault.

If you use VSCode, Rest client is so much better than Postman. Requests are simple text files that area easy to edit, version and share with others

I unironically had a screening interview with a recruiter that asked “If you were creating a startup, would you use microservices?”. She didn’t like that my answer was “It depends, I don’t have enough information to answer”.

Oh, that sounds great!

What does federation for git mean?

Academically, you’re right. For practical reasons, you probably don’t care how Simula, E, Lisp and Smalltalk (languages mentioned in that 20 year old article) implement it. This seemed more like a beginner question so I think the Java definition is a good starting point.

There aren’t really that many definitions for OOP; it’s a very consolidated paradigm. This is a short but comprehensive guide: https://www.baeldung.com/java-oop

Imagine being such a niche language that a single job posting makes headlines. In another 10.000 maybe I’ll be able to get a Rust job too.

“Oh, he uses FOSS, that’s even worse. Put him on the commie watch list”

How can you tell if someone uses vim? Don’t worry, they’ll tell you about it.

Looks really awesome, going to try it out when there’s a Linux version. VSCode is great, but could use some more performant competition.

Came here to say this, but I was delayed by having to clean my cargo target folder.

Honestly, this article is pretty bad at explaining the problem here. It’s clear that other websites will try to track you, but the important part of this incognito drama is this:

The plaintiffs also accused Google of taking Chrome users’ private browsing activity and then associating it with their already-existing user profiles.

Has there ever been an all-hands meeting where the CEO was not cringeworthy?

I just assume it’s the minimum amount of yearly cringe you have to endure to stay employed.

There’s some evidence that he read Atlas Shrugged, which is about a poor executive who “suffers” under increasing government regulation. It’s like a bible for CEOs

Well, it’s winter, so that’s like 4pm to start coding

Wait, so the name was misleading? It should have been GitAndSvnHub

Not that I know of, but you you can do the tests on a separate branch with garbage commit messages and when you’re ready rebase and squash onto main
