Monat der Leaks: Apples Dezember legte viele Geräte für 2026 offen

Czy ktoś może polecić jakąś ładowarkę do akumulatorków? Głównie AA 2450mAh i AAA 750mAh, ale rozważam też inne typy w przyszłości jeżeli ma to sens (muszę doczytać). Producent może być chiński, bardziej chodzi mi o to, żeby był to sprawdzony produkt. Optymalnie byłoby ładować min. 14 akumulatorków AA na raz, ale jak będzie mniej to też spoko, rozbiję sobie na raty.

Still funny to me that movie studios will put millions into a production, and then apparently get a work experience kid to design the DVD/digital cover.

Disruptive.
Of course, on the first day of me traveling, Plasma 6.5 appears in the FreeBSD ports collection.
When 15beta 4 appears tomorrow or the day after I'll do a fresh install.
Gotta make sure that my howto of KDE Wayland on FreeBSD is still good 🥳

I don't envy "vibe coders". I mean, let's for a minute assume that their vision is not a pipe dream, but an accurate prediction of the future.
For a start, what's their plan for life? Driving a tool whose primary selling point is that anyone can use it. And I'm not even talking about all the inside competition. I'm talking of people realizing that they can cut the middleperson and do the coding themselves.
The way I see it, vibe coders are a bit like typists (with no offense to typists). Their profession is a product of a novelty. And just like typists largely disappeared when typewriters and then computers became commonplace, so are vibe coders bound to disappear when vibe coding becomes commonplace.
And are true programmers going to become obsolete? Well, let me ask you: did the proliferation of cars and corresponding self-service skills render car mechanics obsolete? On the contrary. The way I see it, the proliferation of slopcode will only make competent programmers ever the more necessary.
What vibe coders are saying is basically this: "This new automated self-service kit makes car maintenance so easy. Car mechanics will become obsolete now. Everyone's just going to hire *me* to run this kit instead."
