  • If it counts, I encountered a Java file that, unbeknownst to me at the time, was duplicated across two different places. The project was essentially abandoned for years, and the file was one that didn’t change much so I left it alone for a year or so.

    Eventually I had to add a method to it. Compiled just fine, runtime threw a no such method error. Turned out Eclipse was using one, but when Maven did its build it used the old duplicate I didn’t know existed.

    Took me a while to find that one!

    Between the slop, the attempt to take white-collar jobs, and the crazy energy usage, I’m going to say that AI does more harm than good. Especially if you narrow it down to the consumer level stuff. If some moms get bored of protesting violent video games and they want to go after AI trying to save a small slice of weirdos, I’ll cheer them on!


  • Appreciate it! She was born stupidly early - a little more than 3 months ahead of schedule. Birth weight 1.25 pounds/580 grams. When she came home she was on oxygen for a while and that really sucked. She’s also had (and still does) some feeding difficulties but that seems to be improving overall.

    Still some developmental delays, but she’s definitely cruising. Today was day 4 of preschool (our state has universal preschool, and lets you enroll a year early for kids like mine). Already starting to see changes in her! Given how many “nano preemies” seem to have long-term issues, we seem to be doing pretty well now.


  • As a parent myself, congratulations. You found a second way motherhood and fatherhood are different that applies in the first few years. You really showed how someone else “[Simplified] motherhood to breastfeeding”

    But as those kiddos age, motherhood and fatherhood generally converge more and more. Maybe there could be communities dedicated to “beyond the bump” stuff (or whatever that subreddit was called) for those first few years that motherhood is most relevant. But for the most part? Parenthood goes beyond the biologicals.


  • Thank you! My daughter had some medical stuff, and I joined Facebook groups related to some of those topics. Yes, most people posting there are moms, but there isn’t really anything mom-specific about those topics. So when I, a dad who is really trying to be involved in his daughter’s care (and happy to help other parents in similar situations) see posts starting with “hey mommas!” or “any moms who…” it kinda hurts.

    Also, I feel like most people who made the full switch from Reddit to Lemmy are college-age-ish. Not nearly as many parents around here, so I’d rather not unnecessarily fracture those communities here.


  • But every job I’ve ever had, there’s at least one maverick who knows git way better than anybody else and is super advanced

    Pretty sure that’s me at my job, but I take your approach too.

    I just have lousy coworkers who keep a bunch of stale branches open with no real maintenance plan. Thankfully I kind of work in my own bubble and generally avoid that jungle




  • That can also have its own dependencies. I tried to update some relatively simple apps that ran on Java 8 with some Spring libraries (not Boot) and had to deal with the Jakarta stuff to handle it… Only to discover that the Weblogic Application Server we use doesn’t support Jakarta just yet (or probably more accurately, STILL doesn’t!)



  • The lack of anything listed? I was talking about the link above with official state foods, not the OP. Love green chili as an (but who calls it chili verde?)

    Having lived here for over a decade, and 2 states prior, I think the breakfast burrito deserves some recognition as an official food though. With green chili, of course.
