We called newbie overconfident climbers gumbies, back when I could. I think the same applies here.

I experienced a new hell today

The whole of the documentation was in video format and you had to accept all cookies to play the videos

At least with GUMBIES not having documentation there is a wide thread of people asking questions on third party sites

xmunk ,

This was legitimately part of the reason I went with Laminas instead of Laravel for a project. I really don’t want critical documentation to be in video form.

shasta ,

I fully agree with you. However, I just had an interesting thought. Could someone use chatgpt to transcribe the video’s audio to text and plop it into a wiki?

Any documentation videos that comply with accessibility requirements will have subtitles. Just extract the subtitles from the video.

mindbleach ,

Projects based on Gibson novels are lame. The new hotness is documentation based on Bradbury novels.

Man, I’m just chilling and relaxing after a week of SE work and this resonates with me very deeply

GUMBIES isn’t real, it can’t hurt me…

Cort ,

Oh honey, just because it’s not real doesn’t mean it can’t hurt you. Just look up Roko’s basilisk as an example.

Or, yknow, don’t.

Roko’s basilisk is The Game for futurists.

The ego and audacity to think an AI will simulate you in eternal torment when that would use up precious resources it could be spending on making paperclips.

Kubernetes homepage is the real life example of this.

@AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world avatar

There are innumerable examples.

My typical attitude is “I was fine without “latest fad” until now, I’ll still be fine now that I still know nothing about it”. And I forget about the whole thing. It’ll probably vanish fifteen months later anyway.

As an aside, who even makes those caricatural, utterly content free websites, and then pats themselves on the back thinking that’s a job well done? They’ve obviously put some amount of work into those things. Is the point to make it seem like it’s a cool super secret society or what?

They all look the exact same as well, like every Bootstrap site does.

I still don’t know what kubernetes does and at this point I’m afraid to ask.

It has the same root as the also made up word Cybernetics, hope this helps!

I think it empowers the deployment of, um scalability, of the, waves arounds modular thingies… or something. In a virtual way.

AlexWIWA ,

I still don’t know what it is. I will keep it that way on purpose

rofurus ,

Is the joke not on the problem of cute names? K8s doesn’t seem to do that at all. I also checked the homepage itself, and it seemed OK.

What am I missing?

RustyNova , to programmer_humor in I can't believe people are still using GUMBIES when there are so many better alternatives.

I won’t lie, but content like this is what I love on programmerhumor.

Also just use the (inferior) open source version of GUMBIES called GRUMBOSS. It’s way better!

s12 ,

The recent regulation changes at the end of February kinda killed GRUMBOSS though.

Valmond ,

LUMBIES is open source MIT and GPL3+

Just saying.

entropicdrift ,
@entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Yeah, but LUMBIES is missing catScratcher integration! That’s a core feature for my use case and the dev has taken a (ridiculous IMO) proud moral stance against any sort of felidae-adjacent features

gmtom ,

Gumboss doesn’t work with the new version of .net and no merge requests have been accepted in like 8 months so you have to manually patch each instance of it yourself to get it work.

There’s a script you can download to do this automatically and it works a good 70% of the time!

nieceandtows ,

Good luck with that. Nintendo just sued GRUMBOSS for $2.4M and shut the project down.

JakenVeina , to programmer_humor in I can't believe people are still using GUMBIES when there are so many better alternatives.

If you’re unsure about GUMBIES, you should take a look at this video.

My wife is in accounting, and I always thought they have too many jargons.

Now I know how I sound when I talk to her…

Every time I want to do something, I have a look around the baffling ecosystem of frameworks and end up writing it from scratch because it's easier than wading through the bullshit.

dgriffith , (edited )

You should release what you’ve written as a framework, that’s what everyone else is doing.

Naich ,
@Naich@kbin.social avatar

I feel that the nature of my framework is too simple and too focused on a specific goal to be worthy of the name.

Look, the crystal maze is absolutely essential to run Woodchips without a waterslide. You can complain all you want, but unless you want to run back to Microsoft for your woodchips deployment, this is the way. I’m not saying Gumbies is perfect, here, just that it’s the only viable unix implementation. If you want come up with your own sandcubing solution for Flurble, be my guest.

Since this was originally a Mastodon post, here it is :)

It’s fun that it went: Mastodon (fediverse) --> Tumblr (non-fedi) --> Lemmy (Fedi)

tkk13909 ,

Yeah usually we just go from Tumblr to Fedi. This is kinda interesting.

WhatAmLemmy ,

Turns out the content holds the value, and the hosting platform is a mostly replaceable and interchangeable delivery mechanism. Who would’ve thunk?

muntedcrocodile ,
@muntedcrocodile@lemmy.world avatar

Is the fediverse starting to get rolled into the mainstream content farm. Might help our cause and get more people on the bandwagon.

doingthestuff ,

I saw an article posted on Facebook yesterday about the five guys burgers and fries price complaints, and it quoted word for word comments I saw on a thread here on Lemmy the day before that.

I had no idea that Tumblr was active again? I thought all Tumblr posts from the past 5 years were just recycled old stuff.

arandomthought , to programmer_humor in I can't believe people are still using GUMBIES when there are so many better alternatives.

I am not 100% convinced that this is satire…
Gumbies isn’t real… Right?

DragonTypeWyvern ,

I’d say God isn’t that cruel, but

peak_dunning_krueger ,

Gumbies isn’t real, but if you can explain to me how CI/CL or github actions work using only their documentation I’m going to proverbially eat a hat.

sukhmel ,

using only their documentation

Wdym, are you expecting me to explain something using nothing at all‽

This is really very relatable, some projects lack both clarity and documentation, and trying to make sense of internals from the examples is a mess of a process

arandomthought ,

Funny you should mention GitHub actions. It’s exactly one of those tools where I was like “this seems cool. I would like to use it, but I don’t even know what for…” and then when I tried to look into it some more I was just more confused than before.

Oh god, now I don’t know either…

no, you must copulate with the shoes, do it. DO IT NOW.

Otherwise there… is definitely a tomorrow. But… you know, you do you.
