Stumbled upon this video. Seems really interesting. SPJ is really enjoyable to listen to, as always.

Which side are you? Javascript or Typescript by tram1 in c/programmer_humor@programming.dev

[-] tram1@programming.dev 22 points 1 year ago

I'm kind of a beginner... Can someone explain why you would make/use/have a dynamically and/or weak typed language? Is it just to not write some toInteger / as u64 / try_from()? I mean the drawbacks seem to outweigh the benefits...

It's kind of funny, but also holding someone's hand does not mean you are sexually attracted to them. It's kind of heteronormative assuming someone is homosexual because they hold the hand of someone of the same sex. Don't impose your norms of self expression to others...

Encryption-breaking, password-leaking bug in many AMD CPUs could take months to fix by tram1 in c/technology@lemmy.world

That's because of monopolies... There are only two brands of PC CPUs you could own...

Has anyone used Lapce? Is it any good? (programming.dev)

submitted 1 year ago by tram1@programming.dev to c/text_editors@programming.dev

I use Emacs, but only because I don't want to use VSCode (spyware) or VSCodium (even that does not get all the telemetry out by default, and anyway, it's like using Chromium...). But Emacs is NOT good for my OCD... Too much time configuring things I don't really care about. And I don't code as much as actual (professionals) programmers (I'm a mathematician), so I basically use my mouse a lot...

Anyway has anyone tried Lapce? Is it any good?

I feel like Fediverse users are nicer to each other and more generous with upvotes than reddit. by tram1 in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

Maybe we should write lemmy somewhere...

Firefox has surpassed Chrome on Speedometer by tram1 in c/technology@lemmy.ml

Kind of crazy that Ubuntu has some packages exclusively as snaps...

hot take: maybe Game of Thrones should have been destroyed

"It has to be Chromium" by tram1 in c/lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world

[-] tram1@programming.dev 39 points 1 year ago

Chromium could be spying on you, as it communicates with google servers. You should use ungoogled-chromium, and hope they did a good job...

spoiler

or just use Firefox

Rocky Linux is for-profit! I'd chose AlmaLinux (programming.dev)

submitted 1 year ago by tram1@programming.dev to c/linux@lemmy.ml

I was curious why CERN and Fermilab chose AlmaLinux instead of Rocky Linux. After googling, I found out that the Rocky Enterprise Software Foundation, which controls Rocky Linux, is a public-benefit corporation. This is a for-profit type of corporation, unlike what the name suggests. The AlmaLinux OS Foundation is a 501(c)(6) non-profit, which in my mind is clearly the type of organization that should control such an OS.

Unclassified FBI Document: Ability to legally access Secure Messaging App Content and Metadata (January 2021) by tram1 in c/technology@beehaw.org

[-] tram1@programming.dev 14 points 1 year ago

Telegram states at their site that: "To this day, we have disclosed 0 bytes of user data to third parties, including governments."

But according to Spiegel this is false. I don't know German, I read the article using google translate, correct me if I'm wrong.

Here is a quote from the article: "Contrary to what has been publicly stated so far, the operators of the messenger app Telegram have released user data to the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) in several cases."

If this is true, the fact that they are lying is very worrying...
