Incoming proprietary cable that won’t let you data transfer or charge beyond 5w if you use a generic one.

Edit: whoops I read the question backwards

Embedded media and media hosting in general.

I’m not sure what our solution is for this. A good CDN is tough to make. It’s one of the few things I’m pretty sure are better off being centralized.

Maybe that’s the point though? You were able to type it into a comment and have it pop up on our screen identically to the actual logo.

Your not just inconveniencing them, you’re literally causing hundreds of dollars in damage.

Damaging their car isn’t helping anyone, except for making yourself feel better, it’s such an immature way to respond.

It’s like punching someone for using racial slurs and derogatory terms. You’re not in the right to punch them.

Expect to see something soon for it though! There’s an open issue on GitHub. Someone just need to implement it.

Blops2 mob of the dead is all you’ll ever need.

Zombies perfected. Not too simple, not too complex, anyone can complete the Easter egg, many without a guide even.

Map layout is perfect, wonder weapon is super fun to use. I couldn’t ask for anything more.

If Lemmy continues on the path it’s on it will get there, but this is a long path.

Think 10 years minimum before we start to see maple syrup level niche.

I see your point, but I would almost argue that starting out with all these shortcuts available in high level languages is ‘jumping into the deep end’ itself.

When a newbie sees obscure error messages in some of these libraries they might not have any idea what they mean or why they were triggered. My opinion is that having a smaller set of tools to start is actually simpler despite being able to do less with them.

I’m slightly biased because I started with C 😅

[-] James@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

In addition to what this guy said, don’t just use libraries to skip steps when writing small programs.

For example when parsing a file you will often use the split and strip functions in python, but learning how to implement these by yourself will teach you more.

To really learn fundamentals you should try and implement most operations yourself. It’s why in my opinion C is a better language to start with, because it forces you to learn the fundamentals.
