As of now, I backup stuff (mainly pictures) from my phone to a linux file server using rsync in termux (launched through the tasker plugin and automate). I search a replacement to get rid of the automate application that I need only for that, is not Foss and require to run in background in order to use it. Do you think Syncthing can deserve my use case ? Of course I can RTFM but…

A good one IMHO is Omnivore.
Omnivore is a complete, open source read-it-later solution for people who love to read.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Are you registered to donate your organs? Why or why not?
4·2 years agoI’m volunteer to donate because of I accidentally die, rather that it deserve someone who would have more luck than me rather than no one.
Now in Belgium it works a bit differently. Everyone is, by default, considered as a donor.
You can then register to either refuse it or to impose it whatever your family says.
This is because the law is that the doctors must always ask the family if they are ok to give organs from diseased family member even with the “by default donor”, with the registration you can say “don’t ask my family and just do it”.
This can be used in two situation in my opinion, the first one being family that have different conviction and may refuse despite the opinion of the diseased. The second situation (mine) being not wanting to worry grieving family with one more difficult decision to take.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you usually purchase digital or physical books? Why?
1·2 years agoI purchase mostly digital books because I use to read at night next to my sleeping partner and e-reader is the easiest way for me. Also O don’t have a very big house to store all. Now from a piracy vs purchase point of view: I actually buy ebooks as a mark of support to authors I like very much. Now I must confess that for some very popular authors, I trend to think that one book pirated or one book bought won’t change a lot for them. So I buy mostly less known or indie authors at the end.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Am I the only software engineer greatly worried and disturbed by AI ?
3·2 years agoI think you raise a very good point about explaining the problem… Even us as “smart humans” have often great difficulty to see the point while reading PM specs…

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Am I the only software engineer greatly worried and disturbed by AI ?
7·2 years agoWell I seen, I even code reviewed without knowing, when I asked colleague what happened to him, he said “I used chatgpt, I’m not sure to understand what this does exactly but it works”. Must confess that after code review comments, not much was left of the original stuff.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Am I the only software engineer greatly worried and disturbed by AI ?
7·2 years agoI’d like to thank you all for all your interesting comments and opinion.
I see a general trends not being too worried because of how the technology works.
The worrysome part being what capitalism and management can think but that’s just an update of the old joke “A product manager is a guy that think 9 women can make a baby in 1 month”. And anyway, if not that there will be something else, it’s how our society is.
Now, I feel better, and I understand that my first point of view of fear about this technology and rejection of it is perhaps a very bad idea. I really need to start using it a bit in order to known this technology. I already found some useful use cases that can help me (get inspiration while naming things, generate some repetitive unit test cases, using it to help figuring out about well-known API, …).

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Am I the only software engineer greatly worried and disturbed by AI ?
1·2 years agoClearly my main concern… But after reading a lot of reinsuring comments, I’m more and more convinced that human will always be superior
You can still post your image to an external image sharing service (see below some), and you put the link in your post (or embed it with markdown
to place it anywhere in your post/comment).

6·2 years agoExactly, this makes me very anxious. Feeling that we’re just cutting the branch we are sit on …
In my developer career, the littlest commit I did was the removal of a single ‘;’ which was causing a wonderful to debug bug ;)
What is considered as active ? Is someone connecting to his account and lurking considered active ? Or, someone who just up/downvote without commenting or posting ?
IMHO the website is sufficiently usable on a mobile browser. You can still use “add to home screen” to have a shortcut on your favorite launcher.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Does anybody else continue to frequent Reddit, albeit without an account?
2·2 years agoOnly when a search on the web bring me there and anyway I deleted my account so only without an account (wouldn’t say anonymously, even if my browser block trackers this is not ever possible)
Do you have any use case for it ? I don’t really see why I would want to delay an post (except for spam or so but I hope that’s not the goal of the utility, lol).
