  • Not if German/French/Italian car manufacturers can make a profit on it

  • Never thought the wizard installing my programs were an actual human.

  • Right now, you assholes are telling the world that the strong and powerful get special terms, while 30% is for the little people.

    Sheesh, I agree that equalising the cut valve takes would be great, but what's up with that language in a private email.

  • Let's say you got a circle with radius 1/π...

  • Anything motorised that's used in traffic should have license plate to be fair. Kudos to the Swiss

  • We Europeans often share our view on US's business, and you want to gatekeep Americans from sharing their view on European's stuff? The whole point of a link aggregator with comments is people sharing their view.

  • I've thought about it, but I'm personally not a fan of javascript. My last side project included some JS and it was the aspect I enjoyed the least of it.

  • "don't tell the Americans", you are an American mate. The rest of us don't think Fahrenheit is better.

  • Kotlin throws lots of new stuff and rules at you in the beginning.

    Out of curiosity, what sort of new stuff are we talking about? I'd assume it's a more robust language than java based on its origin.

  • Kotlin certainly was the language I was mostly expecting to get recommended, but is there anything specific about it that makes it more suitable for simple mobile projects?

    My web experience is limited to some basic javascript for a documentation tool I've made. Other than that my experience is mostly lower level C and python. No direct GUI work.

    Multiplatform isn't much of a concern as it will be a cold day in hell before I ever consider buying an apple product.

  • Yes? And by simple I meant in the manner that it's not a competitive company. They aren't there to bring in the AI revolution or invent the next iPhone. Their primary goal is to just keep the servers running, not create record profits for shareholders.

    High six figure salaries in general seems foreign to me. A core part of the nordic model is to limit wage gap between high education jobs and low education jobs, so the entire CEO wage structure in the US seems completely backwards.

  • I don't buy that argument at all, it just doesn't make any sense for a position like Wikipedia. Sure, if you're in a highly competitive and specialised industry where connections and insider information matters I would get it, but just running a "simple" organisation like Wikipedia, no way.

  • GOG>Steam>digital>physical

  • Tolkien was Catholic and Middle-Earth takes place in the same world as ours.

  • If it quacks like a duck...

  • Lemmy and reddit aren't an option for you?
