Bottom left looks dumb now, but in 15 years when it is still doing heavy lifting as a legacy application with no external support, they'll be happy it was overbuilt.

Is everyone still using imagemagik under the hood? I’ve been out of the web server game for a while.

[–] aniki@lemm.ee 12 points 11 months ago (2 children)

The rest of the world is catching up to the fact that containers are superior for modern, agile application deployment so nitpicking libraries is really only a thing when the security teams come knocking.

[–] wewbull@iusearchlinux.fyi 4 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Containers are the ultimate "works for me" in software development. My experience it makes for more fragile software that depends on its environment being perfect and nothing else will do.

[–] emptiestplace@lemmy.ml 3 points 11 months ago

It sounds like you've confused containers with not containers, friend.

[–] nyoooom@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Well no, containers allow you to know exactly the environment it runs into, no matter what the actual host environment is, you can run your program on windows, Linux, Mac or any other Docker supported system and it will work the same, I don't see how that's fragile.

imagemagik

Yes, but it's more of the middle wide block of the picture. Under it, there are quite a few tools that have been maintained by some lonesome guys since 90's and some that haven't been updated for years. Sometimes both. Learned about that the hard way, unfortunately.

[–] lemann@lemmy.one 7 points 11 months ago

Yes 👍 does the job and does it fast

[–] Artyom@lemm.ee 40 points 11 months ago (1 children)

And that legacy application is actually only using one of those engines and it's to do something completely different and the dev who can explain it retired.

[–] MajorHavoc@lemmy.world 24 points 11 months ago

And every time someone removes any of the unused engines, everything falls apart, even things not in any way connected to it.

So we put the engines back, and swear never to speak of it again, at least until we find time to complete a Perl tutorial.

API the legacy uses has been capped. :-/

Also my KSP inventory of vehicles.

I'd call it the Boeing 788888888887 or the Airbus A3888888880

Except instead of pronouncing it eight eight eight eight eight … it’s just eyyyyyyyyyyt

I didn't know I wanted an airline version of KSP. Would be fun.

[–] brezelradar@feddit.de 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yea, an Airline Tycoon mod/dlc would have been nice.

[–] xthexder@l.sw0.com 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Honestly an airline tycoon game could be a game on it's own where you have to manage airports, passengers, cargo, routes, etc... Especially if you could mod in, or build your own planes. Sounds fun

Top left is using node for every project

[–] MajorHavoc@lemmy.world 21 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

And top right is the node_packages directory.

[–] visnudeva@lemmy.ml 56 points 11 months ago

Those planes are more finished than my projects.

How can a meme make no sense and so much sense at the same time

But, if the top right worked, it would be really awesome.

"Boarding starts 4 hours before the flight because we have to load so many damned passengers and luggage"

[–] Beetschnapps@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Seriously, reality aside there’s just ONE DOOR.

shingled passenger storage.

Some people will just stand in the way right after the doorway because they "don't want to stand up when the person for the window seat comes". There'll be others who spend an eternity getting their luggage into the overhead bin. And others will just put their luggage in the first overhead bin they see because "there might not be enough space where I'm sitting". The majority though will decide to derobe right at their seat for 5 minutes because they didn't have enough time to do so while waiting 2 hours before boarding.

Imagine an entire town being killed in just one accident.

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 11 months ago

But there would have to be less planes, so less accidents in total.

The sum would be about the same, assuming this plane would be averagely safe.

Flight Simulator But It's Incredibly Cursed.

You laugh, but I'll bet Top Left could do like Mach 3

[–] zaphod@feddit.de 20 points 11 months ago (3 children)

It's absolutely useless, but extremely fast at what it does.

Bottom right is just a 737 MAX.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 19 points 11 months ago (1 children)

No, it's taking off, not crashing

Still worth it if you learn something from them, even if that something is that they suck.
