Another tip is to use interdental brushes, never thought I was able to use them properly until I watched a video about it. Was a pain for the first two weeks and got bleeding gums every time, since then no problems at all, I use them in the morning and evening and floss once a day.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do all you coders actually do?
2·4 months agoHmm, I am programming as a hobby, but I tried getting into it several times without ‘getting’ it too. I then somehow found the free cs50x online course and got hooked and finished all exercises. What helped me were clear goals to work toward and the immediate evaluation of the exercises. I could not get any of this from books or websites alone. I especially loved the sql problem sets.
I then worked on my last submission for a long time, which was a work related application. It worked fine on android and linux and I was proud to submit it, but there was no way to compile the program to get it to work on ios (yeah we’ve got iphones at work…) without a mac.
So then I rebuild the entire app in JavaScript and made it into a multiplatform progressive web app (My main goals were to make it completely work offline and then sync to my server and to let it run on (almost) every device.). I learned a lot in this time, it still got bugs, and designing the ui is somewhat painful (though I love working with inkscape to make icons and pictures and stuff, css though…) but this year I was able to get a test run at work and it was really helpful so far.
Bye, bye maintaining our large, confusing, error riddled, ancient excel tables by hand staring at them for hours!
I still got lots of features I want to implement and bugs to fix. I am aware that my app won’t be up to industry standards (no access to some expensive equipment and rule books), but it is still helpful and it is a lot of fun to work on.
And what happend since I am familiar with python and js and such is, that I try to automate everything, even if it sometimes takes more time to write the scripts. With more and more practice I find more and more problems to solve, like I want to build a weight training tracking app, and I know there are many available, but why not?
You need to find some clear goals and get hooked, and yeah that is something that I struggle with too. (I want to get into playing piano, but I currently struggle to make it click too). Too many hobbies and too few time…

6·6 months agoLidl does have some zero caffeine and zero sugar cola. They introduced it this year I think.
It is not, with broccoli and cauliflower you literally eat the buds, or how they are called in English, and they can of course flower.

Programming@programming.dev•Thoughts on codecademy site?
3·7 months agoI don’t know codecademy, but there is also:
cs50x
Don’t know what people think of it, but it helped me a lot in understanding the basics of programming and I really liked the exercises. But I am just a hobby programmer working on smaller stuff.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are the modern design trends you hate most?
31·9 months agoTouch controls everywhere, I’ve got an induction cook top which is all touch, (temperature is a bar you can drag) guess what happens when you’ve got some spillage while cooking. Yeah, if you are lucky nothing happens, but I had it several times shutting itself down, or adjusting the temperature, which is fucking stupid and dangerous. You want to get rid of the water with a towel? Something will trigger. Really great.
Letting the computer decide what is best for you. There was/is this feature?! in windows 10, or 11 where it sets the color of your font on the desktop based on your wallpaper, and I did not find a way to change it. So what happens when you’ve got a wallpaper that is bright on top and darker on the bottom, like maybe a landscape image? Guess you are just not reading any of the text on the top half…

LinkedinLunatics@sh.itjust.works•Duolingo is going AI-first
3·10 months agoI am not learning Spanish at the moment but I learn more with this kind of approach. And I will definitiveley bookmark this.
I bought the book Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata: Familia Romana which teaches latin in latin with the additional help of pictures. It is awesome.
Does anyone know similar books for other languages? At the moment I learn Romanian, but I would love to have something similar for Polish, too.

0·1 year agoYeah, Maybe one of the rails on the PSU broke? Can something like this happen? Some parts of the motherboard seem to get some power but, I do not get any of the main status leds.
I will try to look at the cpu later, I try to get a second psu for testing…

Games@lemmy.world•what was the last game you played in 2024?English
1·1 year agoI think it was either Mouthwashing, which I definitively finished that day (loved it), or Animal Well, which I bought that day and played a lot since.


Do not have the same problem, but some stuff is wrong in my replay too. Like I’ve played a game in December, and even right before steam replay started and it shows up in November for some reason and some games are missing, and I am always online.
