  1. None of the thoughts and ideas in this post are a reflection of those of Replit Inc, Repl.it Inc, NeoReason Inc, or any employees of the aforementioned companies besides myself. Also none of the content in this post is acting as an advertisement, but simply as a public complain against a company.

    So as a lot of you know, I work for Replit. Online IDE, yada yada. Now, as lots of companies do, we have some competition. Most of the time (like CodePen and CodeHS) we don't have conflict occurring between all of us. Yeah, Glitch tries copying us from time to time, but that's just expected in SF ans SV at this point. My major problem is with CodingRooms, and ESPECIALLY their CEO, Sasha. Now, Sasha is who I'd call a modern day Zuccyberg, an asshole. He spends his time writing blog-post after blog-post about how Replit bad CodingRooms good. He has FOUR LINKS IN HIS FOOTER comparing Replit products to CodingRooms, one of which hasn't even been released yet (and isnt meant to compete with codingrooms), another which was sunsetted months ago, and a third which isn't even meant to compete with CodingRooms. I'm not even on the engineering team (I do community management) and it still makes me irritated every time he comes out with something else which is a ripoff of Replit. Simplest example of this is our file tree:

    Replit's Filetree (been this way for years):

    Codingroom's Filetree (iirc brand new):

  2. Regardless of temperatures, mining in general will really screw with your GPU, especially in a laptop. Even if you're only going to be mining for 10-12 hours per day, your laptop is also most definitely going to be overheating. I wouldn't do it. If you decide to ignore everything I said above, don't mine bitcoin, mine ethereum, litecoin, or some other alt coin. You just can't mine BTC on a GPU these days.

  3. I posted this in a status update but I feel like it would be funny to post here: Cellebrite: hey signal! we hacked your shit! Signal: lmfao hold my beer Signal: *hacks cellebrite's software to not only fix their own vulnerabilities but figures out how apps can modify cellebrite reports generated about them*

  5. Yeah I'm extremely happy that I denied my acceptance into that BS of an institution. If their ethics board said yes to stuff like that who knows what I would go there as a student.

    Also this may count as advertisement but idrk, my company is looking into doing stuff like this, but more for schools, right now, as our service relies heavily on the internet to function properly.

    Havent read any of the previous comments but essentially ATT rolled out fiber until they essentially shut down google fiber. I was lucky enough to get fiber at my house but in the future when I have the money, I do plan on helping smaller towns get their own local ISPs setup so everyone can have fast internet.

  12. Hey all! In an upcoming build, I plan on using an RTX 2060 super founders edition. The problem is, the silver/gray of the FE cooler clashes with the matte black of the rest of the build, so I am either going to paint the card black/dark grey or end up switching out the cooling system entirely. Here is the thing about each of these solutions: Painting the card might not end up good, well, because I'm no expert at it and I will 100% mess it up somehow. Getting a random aftermarket cooler. Chances are I'd have to paint that too, just not as much, to fit in with the color scheme. Also, most of these which I have seen are fairly ugly (IMO) Getting a cooler from a different model 2060s. MIght run into compatibility issues, also the fact that I'm not sure how many 2060s coolers are just floating around. Thoughts?

    TBH true Screenshots of people being like "oH I aM sUpEr sMarT lOoK aT mE!" Mispelled "tho", which is a shortening for "though" Good point. I just get paid to post on tiktok which is the fun part
  22. Running it in chrome, which also handles things like youtube just fine. Asked on the Nvidia forums and they said this is a standard problem rn and apparently using the netflix desktop app fixes it.
