  • Only downside ive seen with Debian is slower rollouts and some packages missing in their repos. Its because they prioritize stability.

    If Debian fits your use case theres no reason not to stay. I ditched Debian after I accidentally created my frankendebian monster which i was way too unknowledgable to save back then.

    And hey, welcome to Linux!







  • Jesus i worked at exactly this kind of project once. The only other dev was also very hostile and protective of this position. He did not want me there in the slightest. Took about 6 months before we cancelled the contract since this dude was just actively harrassing me in Teams DMs on the daily and he just ignored all my concerns regarding maintainability since “he could understand the code” and i was probably just “not experienced enough”.

    Don’t downplay what this does to your mental health. 5 years of workplaces like this and I’m now starting to see a therapist due to exhaustion disorder symptoms in my goddamn 20s. Take care our there!









  • I dislike using AI when im writing my own code, simply because I do not believe AI is fair use or leads to anything positive for the creators of the works its trained on. I do use it to debug some stuff or get some hints but always double check whether the solution is good afterwards. With that said, if the cursorfile is just a settings file it only proves that someone has used AI in their IDE, the code itself does not necessarily have to be generated by an AI. And even if it were it could still be fine, it all comes down to the developers and the review process. The code is not inherently flawed because an AI wrote it. As long as humans are there to point out, find and prevent issues/security flaws its fine to use.

    Here comes the problem though. The term “vibe coding” mainly refers to people with little to no skill as developers, mainly relying on AI to do the heavy lifting. That is very problematic. Thats when security flaws, issues and tech debt start to rack up. I havent looked at the code or researched repo history, but i would believe these devs are better than “vibe coders”
