Very nice, I do hope that helps us finally get a Linux version sometime soon lol

Wow, I legit just ordered a used pixel yesterday to give graphene a try lol. Uncanny timing!

Anyhow, that's great news! I can really see the EU sinking its teeth into this if nothing else.

As soon as I saw it was about "the whole gender stuff" I knew it had to be some garbage bigoted take lol

Turns out most were seemingly glad to comply when Netflix pulled that bs so I'll be legitimately shocked if most major streaming services don't follow suit within the next few months. I'm glad my seafaring ass hasn't had to deal with that kind of annoyance in years lol.

A lot of us don't live in the US to begin with, so I assume a significant portion of us just use whatever the local standard is. That's where I've been at so far, the Brazilian layout is a QWERTY variant so not that different. It does make some things more awkward, but you get used to what you have to work with.

Brackets and curly braces are less convenient off the top of my head, backticks too. Vim is a tad less ergonomic without some extra fiddling, for instance. In fact, I've been considering getting a US keyboard for coding to make that kinda thing less of an issue, US international makes accents and whatnot accessible enough that I think I could make it work.

As a web developer of questionable frontend skills, it kinda looks like something you'd do as a band-aid solution if you had no idea how forms work or how to suppress their default events, which do happen to include the enter key being pressed. Really wild to go about it that route, whatever the intention was lol.

Edit: While typing my other response down this comment thread, I realized for this to happen the developer must have actually suppressed the event correctly so it's even weirder they chose to handle it like this

Ideally, you need at least some basic understanding to use the vast majority of languages. The problem isn't even writing the code itself, you can definitely just memorize the keywords and some basic concepts and have at it. If you ask me, the real issue is the availability, amount and overall quality of documentation and learning material if you go about it that way.

I have a few coworkers who skipped the learning English part and learned most everything from other non native speakers and they tend to be crippled by often not really being able to make use of official documentation or keep up with new things, since the vast majority of content out there is in English. It also has the unfortunate side effect of pushing them to stick with whatever it is they learned way back when and not really looking for better ways of getting things done.

So basically, you can pull it off without knowing English but it's going to be suboptimal and/or painful IMO.

Yeah, it really bugs me that it's basically absorbed what used to be public forums and whatnot into its own proprietary bubble where search engines don't reach while not even being a good fit for that kind of thing to begin with

Pomni is from The Amazing Digital Circus, a recently released animated pilot where human characters are endlessly tortured by an AI entity in a zany VR world. My best guess is it's correlating said eternal suffering with using Java/Maven or writing tests? Not sure lol
