And who’s gonna stop us?

Finally. Thought I was going crazy about the YouTube playback getting stuck all the time!

Universities often teach students to write a lot of comments, because you are required to learn and demonstrate your ability to translate between code and natural language. But this is one of the things that are different in professional environments.

Every comment is a line to maintain in addition to the code it describes. And comments like this provide very little (if any) extra information that is not already available from reading the code. It is not uncommon for someone to alter the code that the comment is supposed to describe without changing the comment, resulting in comments that lie about what the code does, forcing you to read the code anyway.

It’s like if you were bilingual, you don’t write every sentence in both languages, because that is twice as much text to maintain (and read).

The exception of course, being if you are actually adding information that is not available in the code itself, such as why you did something a particular way.

Why do they always keep using GitHub for this stuff??

XMPP servers and clients have different standards. Some supports audio/video calls

And the same is true about Matrix lol

What is the point of all these proxy search engines if they rely on the centralized servers’ indexes anyways?

Correction: it’s not even the indexes it’s the results. So really you still have no control over things such as the pageranking.

It’s worth noting that you can rewrite history after the fact with Git

/s ?

You’re overthinking it. Select a few of the popular ones and be done with it

I’m a programmer and it really is quite easy to implement lol

It also has the additional property of being able to easily transfer that asserted value anywhere in the world, free of censorship.

It’s not just “assumed”. There have been numerous studies that people with better social networks and resources around them are much more likely to succeed. It’s not surprising at all

Governments guarantee that their currency is worth something in various ways. Bitcoin is backed by the energy usage it costs to mine

Make sure you understand volume block size before you start using it. It has a big impact on compression, performance and even disk utilization. In certain configurations you may be surprised to find out as much as 25% of your disk space (in addition to parity) is effectively gone and it is untrivial to change the block size after the fact.

Great, so now we have even more fragmentation. Good job BlueSky!

Don’t see what is annoying about this dialog.

What is UnifiedPush?

This ended up becoming a big issue with my OP7Pro where it would very aggressively kill apps causing them to constantly need to reload which would cost a lot of battery. My Pixel 7 does none of that and Firefox works great.

We aren’t allowing it.

No doubt that AI which is used for Level 5 autonomy should be trained to detect these situations and make the correct decision. Otherwise they wouldn’t be Level 5 systems. This is one of the many reasons why self-driving cars is not a solved issue yet. The systems we use today are either used strictly as a driving aid under close supervision by a human driver or used in small areas that the AI has been already evaluated to perform well in.
