#devproblems — Public Fediverse posts

Why does #promptengineering with #GitHub #CoPilot always feel like #arguing with a teenager?

#devproblems 💻

I already had a problem with that, similar to one I got through the App Store Connect report, but I believe I managed to fix it. 😅

Trying to create real #software by relying on an AI #chatbot is like combining a toddler, a crayon and a freshly-painted wall.

On the one hand, comments in code are awful because they can mislead and get out of sync. They're an extra maintenance burden.

On the other hand, WTF was I thinking and trying to do with this IF statement in some 10+ year old code? And why am I checking if a value is an empty string immediately inside a check to see if it is unset or an empty string 🙃

The joy of working in multiple programming languages.

Apparently #PHP variable interpolation in strings is lacking features compared to #Python f-strings! #ooops #DevProblems

Was updating my profile links on https://dimipiraat.link and realised I have a dimipiraat GitHub account. I forgot about it cause I mainly use a different account for everything professional. Last (and probably only) thing I did was create a page on https://hackercouch.com which is now out of date so trying to update it and I have totally forgotten how to do pull requests and work with git since I haven't been doing any dev work for over a year. #devproblems #hackercouch #git

It's been many bontoons since I last had to do SQL. Now my brain hurts.

#DevProblems

Oh God, so many decisions! Been building a new notification API server to use at home, but I can't make up my mind if I want to stick with my favorite server language #golang or try something new and potentially faster with #rust. Hell, I even started outlining a version in #python to check out @FastAPI and it's awesomeness...the struggle is REAL!!! 🫠😭 :golang: :rust_ferris: :python: #programming #devproblems

Good: Got the auto-resize stuff working (after some confusion about not being able to set struct values, but not getting an error)

Bad: re-opening app with two windows places them on top of each other.

Dear window manager, THIS IS SHIT BEHAVIOUR! And I can't work around it because the #GTK API was removed 🙄

Due to the #Twitter chaos, I needed to sunset my app #TwistReader (TWItter liST Reader, an alternative way of consuming the content (links, images, videos) of tweets based on lists). I also decided to not write apps for #SocialMedia ever again. But… #Mastodon has lists as well… so I could port it over… 🤔 #devproblems #decisions #devlife

Just spent my #morning with updating my #AzureFunctions with #oAuth via the built-in #AuthenticationProvider for #AzureActiveDirectory. Went smooth so far, but now there’s that #OpenAPI thing once again where I am struggling.

🤔 I begin to like #Rider more than #VS4Mac as my #dotNet #IDE on #Mac ... #devlife #devproblems

If everything is high priority, then nothing is high priority. #SoftwareDevelopment #DevProblems #ProjectOwners

FWIW, I just recreated the function but without setting up the deployment. After creation was done, I have set up deployment - and it worked. Can't tell what's the difference, though. #devproblems

Trying to get a #Github #Action to deploy a #dotnet #Function to #Azure is like solving a puzzle, even when you follow the docs ...
#devproblems

Well #sigh... just wanted to create a quick #prototype in #dotnetmaui and the #mac app crashes on pasting into an entry... #thatsitfortoday #devproblems

If Twitter is really going to be a paywalled service, I will have a last app to do involving #socialmedia based on #TwistReaderApp ... one that exports my lists and converts them into RSS-Reader formats. #justsaying #devproblems

So Zuckerberg killed my app #UniShare back then, now Musk is about to do the same with my #TwistReaderApp. I should really stop writing #apps that rely on #socialmedia... #devproblems

Hmm... 🤔 Should I start my own instance (also for some #dev fun) or wait until https://dotnet.social
becomes the go-to instance for #dotnet #developers? #decisions #devproblems

That awkward moment when you hit the “ALT”-Key instead of “CTRL” on your #Windows PC at work because your private machine is a #Mac. Happens daily multiple times. #devproblems #geekproblems
