Hard to tell imo. Big tech has a lot of big advantages and disadvantages over us.
Being centralized and heavily funded, it’s a lot easier for them to rapidly create/change new things, for better or for worse. It also means they do a lot of the testing for us. Mastodon/Lemmy formats are figured out from what we liked from proprietary platforms, then we kept the core that made it good. We also don’t need to make a worse user experience by worrying about monetization.
We also have a lot less development, and I won’t even pretend that Mastodon or Lemmy are anywhere near well developed as Reddit/Twitter backends and other software. We simply don’t have the attention and funding to be anywhere near that level.
I don’t think we’ll ever replace big tech, but I just hope we stay on a healthy trajectory where we are alongside them in popularity.
Pretty sure they blocked everyone else if they haven’t been blocked already. They’re basically already blocked by everyone lol.
Year of the Linux desktop!
It’s a great language to learn. The memory safety specifically. If you only use memory safe languages, you won’t know anything about how the memory is handled in the background. Start breaking and abusing memory, it’s the best way to learn why memory safety is important, what it’s doing different, and how it’s prevented.
Getting deep in the trenches with memory allocation is the best way to learn, since all memory safe languages do this as well, they just hide it. It’s extremely useful to know what’s going on behind the scenes and is fundamental knowledge that applies to all programming languages, past and present, no matter how much they hide it.
Oh boy, the Biden admistration is in their nerdy programming language phase. I’m scared for when the administration gets into WM vs DE and warns about the bloat of not using suckless software.
This is a great site to find instances:
Do they even have advertisers? Tbh I’ve had adblockers on for years I wouldn’t even know.
This isn’t reddit. There’s a clear solution here: decentralization. Aka, like the entire point why we’re on Lemmy in the first place. Join another instance lol.
Another good looking comment from a total stud
I know that everytime I look in the mirror
Lol this is such a load of bs being taken at face value. No, having credit cards in Norway isn’t bad. They judge your rating by your debt, and responsible credit card usage does not create debt. This reads like it’s written by someone who doesn’t understand how credit works, regardless of country.
It’s a silly system but really not that hard to do well. Put everything on credit card and set everything to auto pay the statement. That alone will give you good enough credit with little effort.
5 mins a day is a lot? There just be a big disconnect here, because like you said, this same act is taking you hundreds of hours.
Damn you want to hook me up with some of that unlimited resin you have? That runs out in 5 minutes for me!
Genshin Impact is my main game, I prefer the really polished open world combat, and down to earth stories with an amazing emphasis on being culturally accurate.
Also the game literally has no grind, so idk wtf the other user is saying. 95% of the content is done non-repeatable. Character’s are time gated by an energy system, but there game is incredibly easy and it’s nothing worth worrying about.
If you had to clarify it meant smoked salmon, then I think it changed
The first thing you need is your pirate ship and your crew. Pirates steal, so I recommend just going to a nearby port and cause a mutiny. You’ll need a pirate crew for this, so you’ll need to go to your local tavern and bribe a few scallywags with some coin and beer. Before you set of to see, I recommend you get up to date on your sea shantys and have a large stockpile of cannonballs. Have fun sailing the seas!
I think the people who say this and think Rust is the second coming of Jesus, just don’t code. You choose the right language that’s needed for the job. Server stuff like this is Java’s bread and butter. As amazing as Rust is, it has proven to not be a great choice for Lemmy’s development.
Pretty sure I only actually saw it being used by Google anyways. I love it for native applications on Android, but couldn’t care less about it on the web.
