Don’t look down.
thanks - that looks like full independence and would be good to try. I’ve been using codeium, which was suggested here and it seems as good, if not better than github copilot and it’s free for solo developers.
I appreciate you taking the time to make the suggestion - I’ve learned quite a lot about open source software options in a few weeks here on Lemmy and find it’s been an excellent resource for technical info and suggestions.
gnumeric runs great on any old linux machine - it isn’t as sophisticated as Libreoffice Calc but for basic spreadsheeting, it’s very fast and lightweight.
gnucash is an alternative to quickbooks for accounting - it’s been around so long that it will run on anything and it does the job without sharing your data or bombarding you with ads.
you can always run nmap in the terminal and have some fun with that.
Thanks! Respectfully, I think I’m OK on that side of the equation. But you’re right - you should invest in your own learning and self-directed growth - this applies to all facets of life, not just writing python modules.
I like using copilot. Now that we aren’t using punch cards to write monolithic BASIC and we have an internet to work with, most of the brain work in programming is component-based integration. AI makes typing out code a LOT faster, so I won’t be ditching it to resume writing out for-loops end-to-end. I just don’t want every line of code available to github and definitely don’t want to fund the walled AI model if I can find a way around it.
It’s a good analogy - in the days before email, all you had was a username @ your BBS (Bulletin Board Server). You dialed into your local BBS’s landlines with a modem - they usually had 2-4 numbers available, so that gives you an idea of scale. The BBS systems were federated so user@bbs1 could see and respond to the same threads as user@bbs2. It was nice - it worked pretty much like the fediverse actually - and the tone was similar.
The messaging systems on the BBS communities evolved into email and Usenet before big money came along and fucked everything up.
Yes, you’re right. Headline probably translated because it’s not a clear way to say this. Also was surprised that gold bars are only 2K each, but I see the common size is 1 oz and they aren’t very big…
