Opinion of 1 Jellyfin programmer

I mention JellyFin because at some stage it will become a business and they’ll start charging too,

Citation needed.

or it will get left behind because it’s free.

What do you mean left behind? By who? Anyway, what’s wrong with being left behind?

We’re not beholden to anyone. We’re not in competition with anyone. We’re not in a race, so I don’t understand how we could get left behind.

We’ll keep doing what we do with the amazing team of people who volunteer their time, and other solutions can do whatever they want to do, I don’t care because, again, it’s not a competition!

🤘 Thanks

🤘 Enjoy

I’ve been rallying against clever code for years!

Sure, it makes you have less lines for your l33t code solutions, but in the real world, it sacrifices the maintainability of code that others will eventually work on.

Between a clever 1 line fix and maintainable 10 line fix, I’ll choose the 10 line every time.

Yeah, that tracks.

At work someone estimated adding a section of static content to a page that uses React as 3 story points.

They were searching for components that would style the header and paragraph elements just as they wanted them, but were coming up short.

Instead I simply added it with html elements and a couple of lines of CSS.

5 minutes. Done.

Yeah, it’s kinda wild.

Roku channels are created using 2 proprietary languages, BrightScript and SceneGraph. You will never use them for anything other than creating Roku channels. 😐

You’re very welcome! I’ve since left the Roku team (I’m still on a few other teams) to work on my own client.

If you’re interested, it’s called viv and is available in the Roku channel store.

And since this is a programming community, here’s the source code: https://github.com/1hitsong/viv

Do I get to drink from the firehose?

Immodium and Pepto-Bismol.

I used to do something similar. If I touched something with my index finger, I had to touch it with my thumb.

The most noticeable example was adjusting my car stereo. I’d press next several times, or volume up several times, then I’d press it one more time with my thumb.

Did Imperial Teen play Yoo Hoo? I’ve always liked that song.

It’s funny. I know Jello’s singing isn’t great, yet I absolutely love his warbling voice.

YEP! I was coming here to say it.

It’s just soooo good. Bonus points if it has some chunks.

Just take 1, they’re pre-sliced for your convenience.

If you’re going to take advice on what to use to protect your butt from a toilet seat, taking advice from bloodfart is the best option.

I have no idea. I’ve only kept up with 4 or 5 people from high school.

It’s a bit nutty…
