You coud try eating the pellicle from a batch of kombucha.

I’ve been each of these at some point.

This was not a case of “I agree with you, but…”, though. “But” is perfectly appropriate here to contrast between the first statement and the second.

If you want to improve your problem solving skills, I’d suggest solving actual problems. Data structures and algorithms can be very satisfying in their own right, but the real value is in taking a real-world problem and translating it into code.

It also depends what you want to do with your knowledge. There are domains that are deeply technical and require a lot of the things you’ve mentioned, but they also tend to be pretty hard to break into. A lot of software is not so deep. Any software project will have need for good domain modeling, architecture, and maintainability. Again, these are things best learned through practice.

Perlence subrange 6-36 is good too

Both numbers are valuable, but the visualization is bad. Per capita is very nearly not visualized at all.

Are you implying that sports aren’t popular everywhere or that everywhere is a dictatorship?

The trial and error is important, so you might end up buying a bunch anyway

Shit, I never thought that might be why, but we’ve dealt with a lot of skin irritation, and our kid prefers keeping a dirty diaper over getting changed. My day is ruined.

Armed Bear in the same vein

Hmm… I admit I didn’t follow the video and who was speaking very well and didn’t notice hostility that others seem to pick up on. I’ve worked with plenty of people who turn childish when a technical discussion doesn’t go their way, and I’ve had the luxury of mostly ignoring them, I guess.

It sounded like he was asking for deeper specification than others were willing or able to provide. That’s a constant stalemate in software development. He’s right to push for better specs, but if there aren’t any then they have to work with what they’ve got.

My first response here was responding to the direct comparison of languages, which is kind of apples and oranges in this context, and I guess the languages involved aren’t even really the issue.

I think most people would agree with you, but that isn’t really the issue. Rather the question is where the threshold for rewriting in Rust vs maintaining in C lies. Rewriting in any language is costly and error-prone, so at what point do the benefits outweigh that cost and risk? For a legacy, battle-tested codebase (possibly one of the most widely tested codebases out there), the benefit is probably on the lower side.

My expectation is that a post’s score is upvotes minus downvotes, but I think it should be more like upvotes plus comments with downvotes excluded (or maybe let users filter based on upvote/downvote ratio or something). Maybe count commenters instead of comments.

You can make vegan milk at home and it’s way cheaper than cow’s milk. Oat milk is SUPER EASY: 1 cup oats/2 cups water, soak for 15 minutes, blend and strain. Others are similarly easy and there are plenty of recipes online.

My baseless opinion is that having a variety of instances with varying ethoses means that there’s a good home instance for everyone (not just the verysmart, young, white, male, liberal a la Reddit), and federation means that that variety of people are intersecting and interacting a lot more than if instances were completely separate. At the same time, it still feels like a small community, or maybe a bunch of small communities. There seems to be a lot less of the snarky clapbacks and unpopular opinions getting nuked that’s typical of other social media.

But my anus can tell the difference.

Don’t airlines usually charge a bit extra to pick your own seat? I’d imagine/hope that there are enough people selecting the cheaper “whatever” option that they’re going to bump one of those.

I’m picturing the two unicycle method illustrated in the style of Dr Seuss
