# What is it?

Semicode is a no code AI platform for full stack development. Think of it as a boilerplate on steroids.

# What problem does it solve?

The frustration of setting up new full stack projects when building a new web app while wanting to launch fast.

Things like infrastructure/hosting, initial frontend and backend components.

# How?

Write in natural language and AI builds frontend and backend components, and also composes these together.

The tech stack is initially React + TS with more to come.

# Why?

Building this to make my current workflow as a fullstack developer faster.

No more jumping between GPT4 and VScode, semicode will help to setup atleast 70%* of the project and then we can carry on developing the more fun stuff.

# Interested?

You also ONLY need Android File Transfer on Macs because Apple is too shit to implement MTP and wants to cripple non-Apple devices. On Windows/Linux/BSD you just plug in your android device and it works. A lot of devices support USB 3 speeds too so transferring is fast and not miserable unlike most iPhones and iPads.

They also have a Nearby Share app for Windows that lets you use Nearby Share on Windows. Would be nice if there was a Linux version.
>I find it helps to remember that the corporation is not in it to help needy children, but to launder your extra pennies into being able to claim charitable donations on behalf of the company and consequently reduce their tax bill.

Ah, I was referring to automotive blade fuses (which have lovely little contacts on top for measuring.) They are only rated to 32VDC so if you are running mains through that you have other issues. Indeed I'd just use my battery-powered oscilloscope to measure mains but if I wanted to use a benchtop scope I'd use an isolation transformer.
Uber is less of a scourge than the medallioned taxi shitshow was before Uber arrived on the scene.
It's been awesome to see Charlton and the team build Tampa Devs and their impact on the tech community. They don't get nearly enough local recognition.

There is also more obviously pumped out garbage labeled Netflix originals and it is sad. It's like they took over the video rental store, kicked out half of the good stuff and filled it with Blockbuster Exclusives made by the staff. Staff Favourites because they're in it. I resent streaming because of this. Replaced video rental stores with nothing.
> Google is still associating your incognito activity to your main account

Er, no…
The incognito warning has always said that websites can still track you.* Point (b) won't be helped much by letting people know that Google is also a website.

David MacKenzie – A Personal History with Linux and BSD Unix
Not sure I agree. GC is essential in industry (well, I'd argue that! Ignoring embedded anyway) but I think the programmer has to understand the real cost, and that means allocating and de-allocating, and if that is hidden by the GC then they're not learning that.
That's feature flagging. But it also has downsides.
I use KDE Connect for that. It's cross platform despite the name. It has other features but you can turn those off so it only transfers files.
It would probably depend on how soon you're rescued. Days, and alcohol probably works against you since it makes you lose water faster.
I guess it's also easier to argue an author serendipitously ended up with the same trope-heavy story beats as Live and Let Die or Dr No in their spy thriller than it is to argue they serendipitously ended up with references to "the harlequinade of youth" and "fur-skinned Afghans" in a street scene. But the former is even lazier writing
Yes, that sounds like a very poor quality fuse (assuming it wasn't specced that way, which would be unusual.)

> I most certainly do mean to call out copyright as willful, but it's not a deception, at least not a successful one: everyone knows it is false.

Unless I'm misunderstanding you, this is not even wrong. What about copyright law is empirically false? Such a question is non-sensical.

Your comment redefines the word "false" in a way that muddles understanding. You aren't alone -- some philosophers do this -- but it tends to confuse rather than clarify. I've developed antibodies for language abuse of this kind. Such language can even have the effect of making language charged and divisive.

Many people understand the value of using the words _true_ and _false_ to apply to the assessment of _facts_. This is a useful convention. (To be clear, I'm not opposed to bending language when it is useful.)

To give a usage example: a misguided law is not _false_. Such a statement is non-sensical. We have clear phrases for this kind of law, such poorly designed, having unintended consequences, etc. We could go further and say that a law is i.e. immoral or pointless. You are likely making those kinds of claims. By using those phrases, we can have a high-bandwidth conversation much more quickly.
Microsoft Research, though it has a reputation for coming up with great ideas that somehow never end-up in a shipping Microsoft product.
Moreover there's a lot of economic disincentive. Given free reign to ponder and experiment, it could come up with a solution to world peace, but far more likely would think "Now that I've figured out how to bypass all cloud providers security mechanisms, what would happen if I deleted it all? Well, one way to find out."
Freelance product design is a good field for this type work, but you don't really see it concentrated into a unified r/d location like bell had often.

Some random suggestions:

1. other people may not feel the same way about the material

2. somebody else one or two sizes smaller might be able to make routine use of it with some other garment underneath

3. somebody else might feel it's fine for emergency use or painting and decorating or whatever

4. could come in handy for use with an animal
No, that is incorrect, linking to a study discussing the benefits of circumcision implies bias. If you had linked to both a positive and negative article, such as one regarding how it permanently destroys male sensitive at the head of penis both producing discomfort for female partners during initial penetration, aswell as permanent trauma in child in other studies, then you would have not made a biased statement with your link pasting.
How long did your molds last? PTFE and PTFE with glass? What kinds of plastic.
Hustle culture is the new set of MLM/Ponzi schemes of our time. It is a scourge on humanity, and I see no redeeming ways for participants to enjoy real, honest, legal success. I've watched participants of hustle culture in my immediate vicinity in life, and it almost always leads to participants venturing into dubious or flat out illegal activities to fund their "fake it till you make it" lifestyle.

I'm convinced that the vast majority of these folks are either selling unlicensed securities, sham interests in social media / crypto / real estate / commodities / life coach etc, or they are stealing directly from the federal government via tax shams and assistance programs. The sheer number of hustle culture participants that "participated" in PPP (paycheck protection program) for example fraud is frightening.
Not Jaipur, but people earning 1cr per year are increasingly common in Delhi/Bangalore. Every single person I know - all working professionals in their mid 30s - are earning higher than $60,000+. None of them even went to top tier institutes.

The ones who did go to top institutes and have top companies on their resumes are doing $100k in their 20s.

You have no idea how much salaries have inflated in India, especially in Gurgaon and Bangalore.

Just look at rents to get an idea. Rents in Bangalore have gone up 100% or more in most placed.

That doesn’t happen without massive salary increases.
For me, the way he approached debugging was worth it. The way he went about creating hypotheses and testing them is something I've gone back to again and again.
On the one hand, shoppers at GoodWill aren't there at gunpoint, being forced to empty their wallets. Nothing is being "foisted" on anyone.

On the other hand, in a sense many of them are, except instead of gunpoint it's economics that mean their clothing choices have a hard dollar limit on them - and at the end of the day, it's better to have a subpar t-shirt than no t-shirt at all.

So I don't think anyone is being hurt here. At worst, the person you're replying to could have done better by donating the shirts to a charity that doesn't sell the clothing, but gives it away.

Anyway, I hope you made yourself feel good with your comment, even if you didn't do any good.
Mostly adtech (Nielsen), cybersecurity, finance, and insurance. More esoteric industries over in St Pete.
WFH isn't inequality, WFH is a perk.
What may happen is that every step is siloed in some way and every team assume the others are monkeys on typewriters. From a security perspective, it is not necessarily a bad thing, but it can make the user experience terrible.

For example, I may write some piece of software that refuses to write files with spaces in them, because I suspect that later on, some shell script will process them and it is very common for poorly written shell script to break with spaces in file names. But it may turn out that unexpectedly, the people who write the back end are competent and deal with spaces just fine. But on their side they may expect me to be be the monkey and say, avoid replying with Unicode characters, assuming my code will break if it gets something that is not an ASCII printable character.

So in the end, the user will have neither spaces in file names nor proper Unicode support, even though the software wouldn't have any problem with that if two team properly communicated and didn't think of each others as monkeys.
UB? What? That's completely off-topic. Please stop that, it's annoying.

I can't imagine what LTO should have to do with that either, but if there's any substance here please enlighten me.

The order in which destructors get called is well defined (and generally useful insofar as it's the reverse order of construction). Can't you just accept a simple argument? I'm not even a huge fan of RAII, but it has its uses.
And if you do popcorn, let your guests season their own bag to their own taste. Have regular salt, butter-flavored salt, and... whatever that other weird stuff is that people put on popcorn.

Plus, if you've got a popcorn maker, the smell will draw people to your booth.
Even logic with line intersection has to be careful! I wrote some code to use line intersection tests for 2D platforming. Turns out "find a line this line collides with, move to that point, and repeat" is easy to mess up due to FP precision.

I second Real Time Collision Detection. I used its section on line segment intersection to get my code working.
My understanding is “hybrid” solar panels, solar trackers, etc. have all basically become uneconomical with the massive drop in solar panel prices per watt. For any additional energy you could extract with these schemes, you can get more energy per dollar just by adding more panels. I suppose in cases where you are space limited something like this might still make sense.
KDE Connect has been around for at least 5 years : https://apps.kde.org/kdeconnect/ . It is quiet amazing and does way more than only file transfert : clipboard sharing, multimedia control, ping, messages, remote keyboard/mouse, etc.
Sure, but was "porn mode" for the benefit of the user or the data collectors? I don't feel like that's a controversial thing to suggest given everything we know about the extent of online tracking and the players involved.
With one machine per sled you can easily isolate it and remove it for repairs if it breaks. If you packed two or three on to a sled you'd have to take all of them out of service. The cost difference probably isn't too big.

Agree to disagree, I guess.

I’d give you a B- or so if you turned in your comment as an essay, given the easy-to-spot sloppy error and other issues.

• Bachelor shouldn’t be capitalized unless it’s the full degree title like Bachelor of Arts

• Copius writing doesn’t mean good writing

• ACX should be explained the first time you use it

Corporate speak is strong with this one.

I'm not sure you addressed the point: one-time donations do not solve the problem of companies trying to get free labor over time, even if they are larger donations. This is a problem that has to do with scoping, and setting the right expectations for companies, contributors, and maintainers.

Possibly related: some issues might be cool and interesting to work on while others are dull and boring. A lot of times the former becomes the later after getting passed the MVP stage. This might create an abundance of contributions that are flimsy, and that nobody wants to maintain over time for peanuts.

I think it's cool you all want to get this eventual community involved but you gotta provide the solutions to the most foundational challenges, otherwise how are you adding value in the market?
For any American there is an obvious escape hatch. You probably just don’t like it and actually like the systems benefits you are criticizing.

You can take a minimal amount of US savings and move to the third or developing world and be totally fine for long periods of time. This escape hatch comes with consequences. You lose the safety and public service benefits the “bullshit economy” gives you.

You also learn it’s not so bullshit.

I decided to try #3 for myself. The results are interestingly inconsistent. If you cast a to int and print it, it comes out -96. But the shell reports it as 160. Godbolt compiler clearly shows it returning -96 (movsx should sign extend it) so I don't know what's happening. https://godbolt.org/z/9rxcnM3G3
Could you describe it conceptually how they do it?
Great point. Declining attention spans (or the perception of it / catering to these audiences) has borked the pacing.

Watch an action movie from the 90s: they're _slow_ by today's standards, but if we stick to it with no distractions, it greatly adds to the viewing experience.

This is great for building worlds and charismatic characters.
The article was the source for the top countries and overall percentage I used in my statement. It’s fine if you would like to make unsubstantiated claims but I felt it was better to provide a source for my claim.

Is Ghana a western democracy or did you just toss them in for some extra bias/flair? Maybe you just had trouble staying on track with the thread which was about televangelists and didn’t mention male genitalia at all.
I don't know if poster GP is a nutjob but I've noticed more and more of those type of low-quality comments on here. It all sounds like echoes of a distorted news headlines repeated over and over until we get to the point of: "They don't even have the right to life, their country is committing a genocide, and the goverment tries to take most of their money".
I thought more access and more options to video content would make TV and film better. Absolutely not. They replaced the CURATED video rental store with nothing, and now content that never earned a minute of air time is placed center stage and it's awful. It's not even indie film bad. It's just very bad like the committee who made it spent a few hours discussing and here you go. The title and thumbnail are the entire movie.

I'm not one to long for years past, but quality has been taken over by quantity many leagues over.
It's missing phone apps though. Great on on desktops.
Politics and Wikipedia don't mix

The 'talk' page of that article is completely empty and not a single one of the citations is in English. For all intents and purposes you're taking everything written there on pure faith because the chance that some uninterested observer has double-checked all of those citations is basically zero.

Pentagon must reform, warns first-of-its-kind report
Since being clever is often a footgun, I'll admit to one idea I had years ago; I never really gave it the smell test, and it only existed for a personal project. But if one person thought of it, others may have as well.

I was learning to write sqlite C functions for fun, and thought since storing plain passwords has been such an issue, why not offload the responsibility from the programmer and let the db handle it fully -- consume plaintext, salt, hash, etc, and could transparently upgrade algorithms when necessary.

Luckily I've learned enough to recognize that my skillset is not of the level necessary to fully evaluate the risks. Today the idea makes me feel uncomfortable.
Memories: Being in sixth grade and wondering why the teacher thought it was odd that I was using pencils with "Diazepam HCl" on them.
DoubleCommander is really good in terms of TCMD compatibility (they run TCMD plugins!) but it's useless on a Mac. It's extremely non-native in ways that matter.

Nimble Commander (https://magnumbytes.com/) is almost 1:1 in terms of UX and does support the Mac filesystem well. Just be sure to press ^3 Tab ^3 ehe first time you open it.
That's the point - nothing has changed, except the narrative.

The wild increases in the price of housing is a symptom of the same dynamic we've seen throughout time, of competition over resources and survival of the "fittest" (where "fittest" occasionally means most brutal/devious/selfish). The differences are that a.) The (white) Baby-boom generation (in the U.S.) bucked the trend and enjoyed abundance and very little selection pressure. Note that the story was very different if you were black (where you had the gains of the Civil Rights movement, only to have the rug pulled out from under you with the 70s inflation and 80s crack epidemic) or if you were Chinese (where you probably died in the Cultural Revolution or Great Famine) or Russian / Eastern European (where you likely drank yourself to death after the breakup of the Warsaw Pact). And b.) that in our "civilized" society, we prefer to let people die rather than kill them outright. Not so for the WW1/WW2 generation.

Cryptographers closer to enabling fully private internet searches
Appreciate it, friend. I really do feel as though older generations than us do not understand or care about our situation at all. For example, look at how the first reply to me was gaslighting and seeking to minimize our situation. They do not even attempt to understand or care, because they already "got theirs". Yet they feel as though they need to chime in anyway, telling us that it's all in our head, or that we should bootstrap ourselves harder.

Yea, how can we do that when people become frozen within borders, deported, banned, restricted. We're supposed to take up arms and hijack a plane? Swim? Only to get arrested upon arrival? These older people are fucking high off their own golden years' supply.

And people who are confined to their own narrow, national locality, of nearly any age, especially do not understand.

Cheers.

These differences are in your head. If they are not, they are the result of TV evolving as it always does, but it hasn't been a negative evolution by any stretch of the imagination.

To agree with the sentiment "there are no good TV shows anymore" is pure nonsense.
To be honest, I just mentioned it was uncommon due to location I had no idea someone was going to reply with links to articles about the benefits of male circumcision, I felt compelled to reply as a result.

But it is a fair enough comment to say I should stay on track when I called you out on it too ( I edited that out as I felt it was a bit rude to comment on your attitude ).

Regarding Ghana I dont think you understood my point, I don't believe Ghana is a Western Democracy, but I do believe it has a high right of circumcision, my point is simply that noone in the West circumcises, only the USA. I guessed Ghana was a poor country with comparatively poorer and lower levels of education and GDP with a high percentage rate of circumcision and it seems I was right - its over 95%

PS - you are again being rude by suggestion I am trying to add flair to look cool. You clearly are having trouble understanding by basic point and instead guessing its because I am trying to sound cool. If you look at my account its over a decade old with barely any points on it, I dont care about upvotes.
It's well known that best sellers lists are manipulated in this way, but there's not a lot you can do about it. If I just ask 400 friends to buy my book, and compensate them in home cooked meals and quality time, is that unfair manipulation? It's tough to draw a line.
In what way are they different?

"Different" for me is Lisp or Haskell. D is a crossover between C++ and Java in my (albeit limited) experience.
But where would the fun be then?
How is the free market supposed to create an abundance of housing?

You need some sort of scarcity to increase profits. Building plenty of affordable housing works against that.
Kinda makes me think of applications of Deep Learning research atm.
Constant vigilance and suspicion erodes my soul.
Yeah, no.

I almost mentioned that in my comment to preempt you mentioning that, seems I should have. Jury nullification would not apply in your case, and the jury may not even have that option.

If you honestly think you could take some illegally with the defense "I wanted it" and walk you are delusional.
The chase for subscription revenue is destroying a lot of potentially-great software. Not just in pricing structure, but in how software is designed in the first place.

Compare this to something like Magnet, which is great software that I use almost every time I turn on my wife’s MacBook and costs $2. Once.

My guess is the people who made Magnet just aren’t getting rich off of it, but maybe we shouldn’t expect to get wildly rich from making a useful utility.
