Lemmy.ml seems to have a clone of most of the “top reddits”, somehow the most subscribed communities out there, and all dominated by one or two posters who post pro-China/pro-DPRK/anti-Western content all day long.

It definitely is going to confuse newcomers and make a bad first impression. I wonder if they auto subscribe people to those so their propaganda ends up at the top of the communities list.

Part of the solution is to better inform new users the part of the community name is the host, just like Main St in one city is different from Main St in another city. You choose the city you want to live in first.

But, it may also be interesting to have the ability for admins to selectively merge like-named communities with other agreeable instance admins, and count subscribers to both as one group.

and don’t ever pull the mask off by reading the descriptor and meta object protocol.

in Scala, everything is an expression, including “if”, maybe kotlin is the same?

sorry bro, you will have to either buy new one or buy connectors and attach them on the cable.

also, if the braided coax shield was inside of the knurled sleeve on the tail of the connector, then these were assembled completely wrong. Don’t buy from that vendor again.

punishing everyone for the crimes of a few is intolerable in many free societies

why is this a YouTube video?

It’s a single counterexample. there are many, many such libraries for C and the programmer does not have to roll their own.

OK, think of all the other C collection libraries there must be out there!

The C programmer will need to either roll his own, which may not be an option if time Is limited, or choose a lower-performance alternative.

The thought of going through all of my storage boxes to catalog hundreds or thousands of items so that I might search for them one day via a web UI seems a lot less productive than simply knowing that old USB supplies are in the “USB junk” box and Christmas decorations are in the “Christmas decorations” box

You’ve mistaken facts for opinions.

Facts come from correlation of independent observations.

There’s the targeted message of the month!

You built a spambot?

A fuck load better than Jill Stein or ??? were there any others???

The agitators on lemmy definitely push the idea that centrism is bad. But in reality, the progressive candidates get <1% of the vote.

The far-leftists who don’t do so well will never be happy, falling for the trap of “I only support candidates 100% aligned with pure progressive values” results in Trump winning.

The things the author mentioned drive me nuts about visual studio…. Especially trivial completions, like brace pairing, their thirst to add these newb-crutches leads me to backspacing and retyping over and over again, trying to figure out what the editor did that I didn’t even notice and how to undo it. For something that is literally a 20ms muscle memory action for any experienced programmer.

Wow, 25 posts per day. Definitely a dedicated and genuine community member!

Quatre Cinq

it seems like they usually use it as a farcical example of “someone who thinks they’re smart”.

The first ones out are going to be the research scientists, high-level engineers, and multinational product/project managers who will be filling jobs in Canada, Europe, etc as markets and projects uncouple from the US.
