They said they’re new to Lemmy, so they’re probably used to redditors, and anyone still on that platform is very much not okay
I worked with a physicist who wrote code that was so unreadable, it actually made me laugh. He would often include his initials in variable names, even though he was pretty much the only person working in the code base. His functions usually included a flags
argument, which was a list of (usually undocumented) integers that you could pass in to change the behavior of the function. For example, one time one of his functions wasn't giving the expected output, so I asked him and he replied "oh did you put 32 in the flags list?" Like he just didn't understand that you shouldn't need to read the entire contents of a function in order to understand how to use it.
Inb4 "well why didn't you help him?" he was in his 70s and vehemently refused any advice.
This happened to a girl I knew that tried to make some money on onlyfans during Covid lockdown. Only lasted 4 months, even though she was pretty attractive. I think guys just assume that as a girl, you can simply post nudes online and make money, while it actually does require consistent effort, marketing skills, and a bit of luck.
Remember when Aaron Swartz tried to do something similar and received multiple life sentences
Not all TLDs are, just the ccTLDs. The .io domain was never intended to be such a popular one, but tech bros were like “zomg io! That’s like input/output!! So techie!!!” Meanwhile, .tech exists and is not country-specific but is far less popular for some reason.
As if money actually goes to the content creators 😂
Ok but calculators are only allowed in math class and if there’s one thing language models suck at, it’s doing basic math. Forget anything at least as complicated as algebra
Pre-smartphones, my parents were always yelling at my brothers and I to stop texting at the dinner table.
Post-smartphones, it's now vice-versa and unless we remind them to put their phones on silent beforehand, their phones inevitably erupt in alarms at full volume reminding them to call Marianne back or whatever
Cannot afford, after the regents voted to give themselves $300k pay raises
Respectful enough to call it GNU/Linux, but not support it... lmao
I mean, is systemd giving YOU problems? If not, don’t switch just because other people complain about it
The platform is definitely part of the problem. Bending over backwards to serve the desires of the Trump administration and the executive class
