Man I feel you and I know it’s just how things are. But I often ask myself the following question: Why are lots of office workers so bad with computers? It’s the tool they use for 1/3 of working day in their life. Just like a craftsman should learn to use their tools. No, instead they always act like it’s something only tech guys should know about.

Everybody hating on Java being the de facto language every student learns first (at least back when I was in university) but I think it’s actually a great first language while I don’t think python is for one simple reason: it has types but tries to hide them from you. It is soooo important to understand types early though.

True. To me, Lemmy feels somewhat more like the old vBulletin forums I used to browse 15 years ago.

Warte, die Gurtpflicht ist in Teilen der Gesellschaft noch umstritten???

I think it all depends on how good our tools to detect AI generated content become. If it is not distinguishable, then the internet is probably about to be flooded by AI generated content which in turn means AI is going to be trained more and more with AI content, degrading the model in the process.

I don’t think the motivation matters. They will just spin it in any way they think it will benefit them.

Not from the US and I don’t understand why one would support a candidate just because he survived an assassination attempt. Can somebody explain the logic behind this?

How is this going to end?

Google blocks access to it’s services for Firefox altogether? Maybe even ban it from the Play Store? That would finally give me a real incentive to install some CFW.

I use Kubuntu in mostly default configuration. Am I special or a normie?

Is it an unofficial reddit client? How are they getting around the API prices? Webscraping?

I tried only Jerboa and that’s what I stuck with. It loads fast and has every feature I want. Compare that to the official Reddit app, which is a slog on even high end devices. Seriously, what are they doing that it loads SO SLOW?

It’s already too late. Google has a monopoly on the browser market. Do you think your regular normie would continue to use Firefox if Netflix, Instagram, TokTok etc. don’t work anymore?

There is nothing we can do. The internet of old is already lost.

That’s why I kinda don’t like Python and JavaScript anymore. Every time I want types for a library it’s gonna take me time to get it working. For every serious project I do, I use a strongly typed language.

Vorraussetzung ist, dass der Gesprächspartner Beweise anerkennt und das tun sie oft nicht.

Stellt euch vor ihr müsst so dringend zur Arbeit um Wert für euren Arbeitgeber zu schöpfen, dass ihr dafür jemanden überfahren würdet, statt zu spät zu kommen.

Can corporations fuck it up if they want to? Couldn’t we just migrate to a new instance and not federate? Or not federate with them from the beginning?

Thanks!

Tbh thats part of the reason I like to take many small amounts and spread them out over the year instead of few big chunks. This probably changes once you have kids I guess.

I tried to download a repository as a zip file but you can’t do that in code commit. That’s a problem in a big corp environment, where getting your local git credentials to work with codecommit is actually a very big hassle.
