potatoguy@potato-guy.spaceOPto Programming@programming.dev•How to deal with a not so good related team that always asks for help?1·10 days agohow come that they can circumvent them?
Copilot writing all the unit tests and passing, while the unit tests don’t test anything or test the wrong thing. Passing the wrong thing to the services that consume their services, so it seems it works, but the service downstream just doesn’t work anymre.
potatoguy@potato-guy.spaceOPto Programming@programming.dev•How to deal with a not so good related team that always asks for help?2·10 days agoOh, now I understand what you said and agree with it.
potatoguy@potato-guy.spaceOPto Programming@programming.dev•How to deal with a not so good related team that always asks for help?3·10 days agoJust annoyed, I have some important work to do and then bam, a Teams call on the code we wrote and they broke. I would like to propose some help for them to understand better their system, yes.
potatoguy@potato-guy.spaceOPto Programming@programming.dev•How to deal with a not so good related team that always asks for help?2·10 days agoI showed an error to them, as their project is having a problem with the mock that I have built (for better managing and testing the dev environment) for the entire system and might cause very big problems when encountered in prod (very probable it will happen when the project will be used more, in some time in the near future), they didn’t fix it, it was encoutered 1 month ago.
potatoguy@potato-guy.spaceOPto Programming@programming.dev•How to deal with a not so good related team that always asks for help?5·10 days agoTalking to the boss seems a bad idea, yeah.
I’m thinking about doing a teaching session with the whole team (for the whole project), to explain things in the grand scheme of things of how they work, this might help with what each part of the code does. The project is huge, but the teams are medium sized and we are hiring a lot of people, so it might be good for all to know a little bit more.
potatoguy@potato-guy.spaceOPto Programming@programming.dev•How to deal with a not so good related team that always asks for help?2·10 days agoThe place I work has all that and even more, I think these kinds of errors that happen make upper management even more draconian with the rules (and we already have A LOT of rules).
potatoguy@potato-guy.spaceOPto Programming@programming.dev•How to deal with a not so good related team that always asks for help?21·10 days agoIf resources are going from one team to another, and they have separate management, that damn well better be coordinated through your boss. At the very least C.C. at the start and end of the project.
It happened inside their project, not in communication with our part of the whole. It happened communicating with the code we wrote for them, but we didn’t explain our code to them, so it might be a little bit of our fault, even if it was in the documentation and the tasks that were provided to us, the json was part of the documentation.
potatoguy@potato-guy.spaceOPto Programming@programming.dev•How to deal with a not so good related team that always asks for help?2·10 days agoHahaha, thanks!
potatoguy@potato-guy.spaceOPto Programming@programming.dev•How to deal with a not so good related team that always asks for help?3·10 days agoYeah, I feel it might be a management issue too.
Unfortunately, everyone knows about the other team, but I feel they aren’t guided by their boss, Idk but I heard that they are lost on the project, but on that Idk how to help, but at least I expect them to test the code they produce, some of them test, but a lot of them don’t.
I’m going to try to help when asked, but it seems they need more senior devs (I’m only a junior dev) or some form of “training” for their project.
potatoguy@potato-guy.spaceOPto Programming@programming.dev•How to deal with a not so good related team that always asks for help?5·10 days agoNot our boss, their boss. We’re basically helping because of the spirit of the team.
They will not get fired and I don’t think that they getting fired would be good, I just want for them to learn about the system they work on and have more testing on their part. I want to work on my system, because I like it, only wanting to help when it’s needed, not when it’s not a good job on anothers team part.

Unfortunately, yes.

Interesting.
Edit: grammar
potatoguy@potato-guy.spaceto Linux@programming.dev•Using ZRAM on a laptop with 8 GB RAM. Worth it or waste of CPU?5·1 month agoZram is good, i would use lz4 as a compression method, it uses a lot less CPU than zstd and compression makes it around 50% bigger than compressed using zstd (50% compression vs 33% compression on zstd). So on CPU bound scenarios, it holds better than on zstd in my opinion. Same on btrfs, it feels a lot faster on lzo than on zstd.

I started using linux in 2011, but went full linux nerd in 2014/2015, while still in high school. Changed distros, changed OSs, changed everything, but full time it was linux all along, from ubuntu, to elementary os, to arch, to hackintosh, to solus, to endeavouros, to a lot of distros, but now i’m stable at cachyos (the optimized packages are amazing, ngl).
potatoguy@potato-guy.spaceto Linux@programming.dev•Fedora Linux devs discuss dropping 32-bit packages - potentially bad news for Steam gamers24·1 month agoI think Wine has had WOW support for some time and it seems it will be the default at some time (arch moving to wow64).
Edit: What is WOW64
All transitions from Windows to Unix code go through the NT syscall interface. This is a major milestone that marks the completion of the multi-year re-architecturing work to convert modules to PE format and introduce a proper boundary between the Windows and Unix worlds.
All modules that call a Unix library contain WoW64 thunks to enable calling the 64-bit Unix library from 32-bit PE code. This means that it is possible to run 32-bit Windows applications on a purely 64-bit Unix installation. This is called the new WoW64 mode, as opposed to the old WoW64 mode where 32-bit applications run inside a 32-bit Unix process.
The new WoW64 mode is not yet enabled by default. It can be enabled by passing the --enable-archs=i386,x86_64 option to configure. This is expected to work for most applications, but there are still some limitations, in particular:
Lack of support for 16-bit code. Reduced OpenGL performance and lack of ARB_buffer_storage extension support.
The new WoW64 mode finally allows 32-bit applications to run on recent macOS versions that removed support for 32-bit Unix processes.
