I disagree with your last point. In many cases in teaching, the teacher knows the correct path better than the student. One example I've found is that when an experienced teacher says "Practice this. It's boring and you won&#

Only one person using one device is allowed to add to the log. Each entry contains the hash of the entry before it (including that entry's field where it contains the previous hash, etc.). If you add entries that have a conflicting ord

I think Rust and Haskell, due to their irrelevance in industry and general "nerdiness", attract a certain type of hacker. Specifically I've noticed that there are some libraries for both languages that are just so good that

I wish for a version of TS where I could have === automatically rewritten to use _.isEqual, that way [1,2,3] === [1,2,3] would return true.

I'm actually unsure, is calling someone (let's say a private citizen rather an a celebrity) a pedophile based on flimsy reasoning illegal in the US?

Really? You can't go 10 minutes in many LGBT spaces without hearing someone using the f-slur in an affectionate way. Also banned is "b!tch", which is not really considered that offensive in most of the US between female frien

why is it cringey to not want to see too many homeless people? the existence of homeless people is a failure of the state and it’s perfectly reasonable to want to avoid them on the basis of personal safety.

As long as you have a properly functioning government that’s resistant to bribery and corruption, these initiatives can’t hurt you. The phrase “world health oligarch” sounds scary but what that looks like is Gates paying people to research

Does lemmy still do the thing where they censor certain words and don't include a way to configure the censorship to try and discourage certain groups from using it?

I love polymorphic records/variants. Variants particularly are amazing for error propagation. Records of course are useful in many of the same places tuples and structs are. The main reluctance I have is whether to allow duplicate entr

Why wouldn't it be affordable? As long as there's enough bandwidth couldn't SpaceX just offer its ISP services at marginal cost? In any case it's not like people who can't afford it are made worse off by it being th

I often use my airpods pro while driving with ANC turned on and get absolutely no nausea. Since they cancel predictable noise, I also feel my driving is actually safer (a noise like a siren would sound relatively louder than before).

It's fine for you to trust the software publisher, that doesn't mean facebook should, especially when they're legally liable for data breaches that could result from it

I totally agree. I think the new logos look nice and I don't have any issue distinguishing them by their silhouettes.

Discord has so many features that make it feel like it was made by and for gamers. Like the "currently playing" statuses, or "streamer mode" that hides identifying info when you have OBS open. It also works better than

If you do it on and off you'll be much slower. I switched cold-turkey to Colemak and could type reasonably after a month and quickly after 3 months. The hardest part was retraining my muscle memory for keyboard shortcuts (but it wasn&#
