How can such a wrong answer get so many points? Clones and forge forks are unrelated. First, GitHub or GitLab cannot and could not link clones together without analyzing the remotes of each clone.

FFS it’s a tech community…

Forks do not exist in git. It’s a GitHub feature, and a massive blunder at the same time.

Try gimp.org.

Yeah. They only read textbooks to quiet kids, they do not have unpaid overtime at home for grading tests, and earn a million dollars every month. Lazy bastards.

It’s fake nostalgia of an era they never experienced. Vinyls always sounded like shit but we had no comparison except the better sound of movie theaters, but you couldn’t have that at home.

Then the audio CD appeared and it was like the second coming of Jesus. The sound was really a hundred times better than vinyls, even with the same set of amps and speakers.

One day they’ll tell us that VHS on a small black and white TV is better than a 4K movie on a giant screen.

Is there a downside? I’m confused.

I don’t understand the downvotes. You’re right on all points. If the task is too big, it can take years from testing another solution to using it for real.

I’m bored too, but not bored enough to post shitty shit like this.

Do you do it yourself with a European recipe? You would get the same result I guess.

Back when Nginx started, Apache was the only alternative and a big pain in the ass. That’s how it became popular.

That’s boring. Altman wants to save the world whatever that means, not solve the shitty problems that poor people have.

Then don’t avoid him and be natural. That’s all.

Is it popular? Never heard of that in France.

This game was released 10 years after git, and we already had backups since the 80s. Why are they lying?

• Medium sucks
• Clickbait
• After reading a few pages, what is the point of this article? There are hundreds of pages of conversation, WTF?

EVs: too expensive, I can’t afford one. Chargers: there are no chargers where I live.

That’s it. Fix those problems and people will buy.

Having a “library” is already a crime in some countries so…

1. Random useless text from AI, no questions, nothing technical
2. IMHO, this place is for people who learn, and we help in the comments, not “here is a burger recipe if you are hungry while learning to code”
3. The so called propositions are stupid. It’s a mix of dumb ideas with solutions that are way too complicated for a beginner. What is the point of mixing emojis as an encoding system (UTF-8 and shit, it’s hard) with encryption (totally unrelated and way harder)? Or using graph theory with HTTP and parsing HTML, what is the point, what are you learning? Way too advanced and distracting for me.

Downvoted.

Every personal project is good as long as you try to make it professional. It doesn’t need to be perfect but you can show that you made an effort to clean your stuff. I’m biased because I’ve been doing C++ for a long time, but every language is worth it. Also what I’m saying may be specific to my location and kind of job, but I tend to think it’s kind of universal. To get a job, you need to show that you have a broad view of the software ecosystem.

For example for C++, you can do:

• C++ code, maybe built with CMake or SLN because those are universal tools
• linter and formatting (clang format, cppcheck, SonarLint, etc.)
• good commits and branching strategy
• some comments in your code
• some documentation
• unit-tests
• maybe some scripts in Python for the CI
• use a package manager like Conan or VCPKG because any company will pick random libraries all over the internet, you can’t do everything from scratch

I think it applies to every language, just change C++ to any other language but the other bullet points don’t change. And if you have some code to review, post it here and we’ll read it like a real “merge request,” it can be interesting.

Do it in Python. It’s a PITA in C++ if you don’t know that language. Read A Tour of C++ instead.

Python for the web, C++ for everything else. C++ is still popular, especially the modern version and you’ll get a good salary. But you should learn HTTP with other tools like Python.

With both Python and C++ skills, you’ll get jobs everywhere. Python for tools and CI, C++ for applications.
