Honestly, if he’d just left it at “another state,” I wouldn’t even be mad. I totally get wanting the degree of separation. But adding “another country” absolutely betrays his true thoughts. What a gross thing to admit.

That’s insane. Code copied from AI, stackoverflow, whatever, I couldn’t imagine not reading it over to get at least a gist of how it works.

Of course, i know this because I do 3d art in blender and refuse to set it to metric.

You monster.

True, but I see it more as a tool for a non-technical person to make a prototype of a user experience more than making a foundation for how a project will actually be built and designed from a code perspective. Like, when it comes to the actual implementation of said project, the developer(s) shouldn’t even look at the prototype code. I envision, in this example, as it solely being a tool for non-technical people to express their ideas to the technical side of the operation.

I agree with you though, that still has potential to pollute a project entirely, and we already have methods of creating requirements and documentation for projects so this isn’t exactly the most useful thing ever.

I think that’s exactly what they’re implying. Use it to make a low effort disposable prototype, not scaffolding to expand from.

good ol virus.txt

I just watched it the other day and I still love it. Probably the nostalgia speaking, more than it actually being good, though, haha

They shoot pepper balls.

Having said that, they might get kids killed when they’re trying to hide from a gunman but can’t stop coughing because the room is filled with pepperball dust.

Try 234 years for 2nd Amendment…

I think the point is the 174x growth, not the final number based on the arbitrary $100. If you’d invested $10,000, you’d have $1,740,000 (simple extrapolation not accounting for dividend reinvesting, it’s too early for math)

I meant more of a societal “our”, more-so than Lemmy users specifically. We’re certainly a bit ahead of the curve, but most of the content that lands here still comes from other social media sites first.

Gabe Newell is 62 years old. Gonna enjoy this gravy train while we can…

Unfortunately, if you want censoring to stop, we have to stop letting our lives be ruled by algorithms.

too many fucking bootlickers

I think there are also just a lot of regular people who are exhausted by the fight and just don’t have the time, energy, or direction to know what to do about it.

Hey, if you have some physical limitation and cannot or are simply not comfortable going faster, that’s 100% fine (assuming you can operate a car safely). Stay the hell in the right lane and never leave it, thanks

You don’t like driving 55 in the passing lane? You get such a great view of everyone flipping you off!

You’re totally right. It’s a social/culture issue. You doing this on your own isn’t going to do shit. Everyone has to miraculously decide to come together to solve the problem with no one taking advantage. It’s the same reason we can’t do anything about climate change.

Edit: I realize this came off as extremely dismissive about climate change. I still think we should do what we can to, at the very least, reduce effects. It was more just a realistic take of why I think we’re all fucked. I still avoid eating meat, single use garbage, and other wasteful shit, don’t get me wrong.

Can anyone tell me why this is being downvoted? I don’t really care about downvotes, Im more just wondering how I’m wrong.

Or when people drive too aggressively and cut someone off, causing the person being cut off to slam on their brake.

Heritage Foundation

When I was a kid, I started developing breathing issues. My dad immediately stopped smoking in the house and around me in general. I wish he’d stop smoking entirely, but I do love him for recognizing the harm he was doing to me and making changes to be a better father.
