This is not a good thing. Dude's a nazi. Everything he aligns himself with will be tainted by him, not helped. The quicker any community with any decency explicitly disavows him, the less damage his public support of them will do.
Disney is no stranger to hypocracy of that sort. Look at them making their billions off of the public domain (Snow White, Cinderella, Aladin, The Little Mermaid, need I go on?) while lobbying heavily for longer copyright terms to keep works they made from being similarly adapted.
Seriously, though, Lemmy's search feature is surprisingly good these days. Searching for "moth" and/or "lamp" will probably get you quite a lot of the results. Plus, if you find the usernames of some frequent moth meme posters, you can probably look at their posting history to find more examples.
Don't anyone celebrate prematurely. We live in a post-Kennedy v. Bremerton world and if this goes to the current Supreme Court, it'd be out of character for them to uphold the block.
Yeah, I think "a slice of bread" is a lot more common than "a bread slice". Not to say I haven't ever heard "a bread slice" used. I'm sure I have at least a few times. It would be pretty rare, however.
Though, I'm not sure "a pizza slice" is all that much more common. Maybe there are regions where it's very common? Or maybe it's more common in certain contexts? Like maybe sell-by-the-slice pizza places might tend to refer to "a pizza slice" rather than "a slice of pizza" when talking with coworkers? (That said, I'd imagine they'd just shorten it further to "a slice" since the "pizza" part would tend to be obvious in that case.)
Also, @eager_eagle@lemmy.world mentioned "water bottle". I think if I hear "a water bottle" rather than "a bottle of water", I'm probably going to assume it may or may not be an empty bottle intended for water rather than a bottle filled with water as "a bottle of water" would imply.
Way off the topic of programming, but linguistics is fascinating too!
The Go programming language documentation makes a big deal about how it "reads from left to right." Like, if you were describing the program in English, the elements of the Go program go in the same order as they would in English.
I say this as someone who likes Go as a language and writes more of it than any other language: I honestly don't entirely follow. One example they give is how you specify a type that's a "slice" (think "list" or "array" or whatever from other languages) of some other type. For instance a "slice of strings" would be written []string. The [] on the left means it's a slice type. And string on the right specifies what it's a slice of.
But does it really make less sense to say "a string slice"?
In Go, the type always comes after the variable name. A declaration might look like:
var a string
Similarly in function declarations:
func bob(a string, b int, c float64) []string { ... }
Anyway, I guess all that to say I don't mind the Go style, but I don't fully understand the point of it being the way it is, and wouldn't mind if it was the other way around either.
Edit: Oh, I might add that my brain will never use the term "a slice of bytes" for []byte. That will forever be "a byte slice" to me. I simply have no choice in the matter. Somehow my brain is much more ok with "a slice of strings", though.
I'll try to say this delicately enough to not get banned...
The modlog (which also contains the full text of my post) cites as the reason for the removal of my post "rule 1" which according to the sidebar is "Be civil and nice."
I think they consider any criticism of the government of Iran to be "incivility" and/or "meanness".
(Hopefully I'm not misinterpreting the mods here. Mods, please feel free to step in and correct any such misrepresentation.)
I could see a case for using "working person" instead of "worker." It's definitely not the sort of thing that's agreed to be exploitative language (yet?) though.
What I do for sure bristle at a lot more is referring to people as "resources." Like, when planning a project, discussing how many "resources" can be "put on the project". Definitely feels dehumanizing.
It's a vibe.
