What version control software do you use? in c/godot@programming.dev
[–] YurkshireLad@lemmy.ca 1 points 8 hours ago

I used to use the OpenVMS file system for informal version control, while I was developing something and before it was ready to be committed to the repository.

How the heck do you pronounce that name? It reads like one of those dodgy random Chinese brands on Amazon.

I came from years of jQuery and the mind shift to VueJS was just too much for me. Our team decided to use it almost on a whim. A major version of VueJS was released before we’d released our product, which meant we had to go back and rework things. So all in all it didn’t sit well with me.

When will all the folks complaining about loss of Snap and health insurance realize the GOP wants us to die and has ZERO empathy for fellow Americans? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

I find it very strange that so many American women vote to reduce their own rights.

I enjoyed web development until I had to move to VueJs..

It wouldn’t surprise me if Weston started sourcing fewer Canadian products so they could raise prices.

Should have made it a 50ft statue.

Are they moving to Russia to simply information transfer?

Not if they’re moving quickly and not signalling their intent.

Hybrid or small turbo 4 cylinder for hilly neighbourhoods? (lemmy.ca)
 

While touring a bunch of hilly neighbourhoods, driving up and down tiny, steep hills with sharp corners, this question popped into my mind. Which is better for this kind of driving, a hybrid or a smallish (e.g. 1.5L) turbo 4 cylinder?

They both have low end torque, though the hybrid's torque may come on sooner. The hybrid also has regen braking that can reduce heat buildup in the brakes. The hybrid may be a bit heavier due to the battery and additional hardware.

Would steep inclines put a strain on the turbo and reduce its life span? I know nothing about car mechanicals, so I really don't know if that's possible or not.

The hybrid seems to make more sense. 🤷

Any thoughts?

Anyone familiar with SFTPGo? (lemmy.ca)
 

I’m trying to set up a group so multiple users can share a folder. I created the group and a folder for it but I’m not what paths I should use for both. The result is that the user can see the group folder in the web UI but an error occurs after clicking on it:

“Failed to get directory listing: Unable to get directory contents"

Thanks

Bit of a long shot, but are there any in person ASL (sign language) courses in #barrhaven or perhaps south west #ottawa?

Best chipset for Linux laptop, Intel or AMD? (lemmy.ca)
 

I’m considering picking up a cheapish laptop for development, with the intent of installing Linux on it. Typically it’ll be Java development or other stuff in docket containers. Is there a best chipset to pick for Linux or are they pretty much identical these days?

Ghostery browser and android? (lemmy.ca)
 

I was looking at browsers in the Play store and saw the Ghostery browser. It's now apparently based on Firefox, and I assume the Ghostery (plugin/extension) functionality is built in. Does it protect privacy better than other browsers and is it worth trying out? I currently use Firefox on android but I detest it's UI decisions. I've no idea if Ghostery has a different UI or not.

Self hosted video chat (lemmy.ca)
 

If I self host some kind of private video chat service, is the video data transferred direct from connected peer to peer? Does it go through the self hosted service instance? Or does that depend on which video server is used?
